Sacred Plant Medicine Ceremony with Cacao & Blue Lotus
guided by Zelday, assisted by sister Yarana.
See who are joining at https://www.facebook.com/events/180997983909187 and plan your travel companion.
After drinking the ‘ceremonial grade’ cacao* mixed in a special tea, Zelday will create a sacred space with sounds, vibrations, voice and icaros (plant medicine music) and meditations. This Sacred Space is an invitation for you to open your fullest potential. Zelday might support the individual processes with other plant medicines such as rapé and limpia’s (shamanic healing). Towards the end there will be singing with guitar and the opportunity for participants to join in the music. We will end the gathering by sharing a healthy and nourishing potluck meal meal.
“While the Sacred Medicines are entering your body, you hear soft breathing sounds, humming, whistling… enchanting rhythms… rustling leaves … subtle sparkling tingling seeds… icaros calling upon the maestros and spirits… heart-opening voices… the chacapa… the sun gong… wind chimes…. singing bowls and bells… the magic multi-layered voices of the deep didgeridoo… Zelday bring the sounds and vibration of the jungle with its many helpers and in every cell in you the Universe starts opening up, showing you what you need to see…”
MEDICINAL GUATAMALAN CACAO
The sacred medicine of Cacao alters the neurochemicals in the brain, produces a feeling of well-being and heart-opening, helps us elevate our state of consciousness, brings our polarities into balance and reconnects us in an infinite state of Oneness.
The highly potent ‘ceremonial grade’ cacao that we use for our ceremonies has a natural strong dose of these substances, since it is not being modified for consumption. Most cacao is produced as cheap as possible, for consumption. There is also beautiful raw cacao for healthy food and as an energy supplement. And then… there is wild and medicinal cacao! We only use the purest and most potent healing cacao we know, an ancient and rare Guatemalan variety that is being selected for it’s very strong vibration, which doesn’t come from cacao plantations but grows either wild in the jungle or together with other plants in a balanced permaculture, to reach the optimum natural conditions for both of them. It is carefully selected and difficult to get.

ZELDAY KARSSEN
In the Netherlands born Zelday Karssen (1981), father of two children, is a sound healer, musician, crafter, teacher, didgeridoo specialist and spiritual awakening guidance. He studied and lives the path of sound healing and didgeridoo ever since 2001 and deeply devoted his life towards this ancient instrument and healing practise, which became his full profession in 2009. Throughout time he studied from traditional Yidaki to modern didgeridoo styles and is a known teacher when it comes to consciousness about body, sound and spirit.
Parallel with the path of sound healing, a high pionering and experimental chaptor with his dideridoo´s taught him the diversity of this instrument in various musical genres, which performed throughout a wide variation of festivals, concerts and projects around the Netherlands and Europe mainly in between 2009 and 2016.
Zelday inspired literally thousands of people with his spiritual devotion for his music, instruments and life itself. He lived throughout his life several dimensions of existence, and travelled around the planet to synchronize with her divine natural beauty. During these journeys he came in contact with various cultures and tribes in Europe, Asia, Australia, south and middle America. His pure type of awareness about our cosmological journey on this planet makes him a very sensitive and earthly person. Life experiencing from the heart, also came from a tremendous polar side effect as he experienced existence with long term shadow work in very early stages of his life. These mainly caused by the desynchronizing of his organic senses towards the modern western society. Through many years of deep transformation he analyzed the many dimensions of existence, which brought him back to his most fundamental principle of the self. Being Alive.
“Being high sensitive has been interpreted more like a disease in the world today than it is truly valued as a unique personal gift. It is those are fortuned able to feel on deeper levels, experiencing the depth and dynamics in sense and perception, but with the lack of social or cultural attention and education this gift could be ones largest struggle to survive. In fact we all have the potential to experience the endless field of senses. It is mainly about finding back the trust in your organic senses and understand on a deeper level that all your life experiences are generated from within. I went through some dark chapters which, finally, let me understand the harmony we basically are. We are dualistic beings in search of union. The union ain´t a permanent state of being, but the conscious practise of duality will teach us what it is to experience pure union. This could be practised throughout tantra, plants teachers, sound, music, yoga or any other conscious method to experience ourselves.“
His refined, organic sense of sound and energy let him grew towards a developed sound healer and through years he disciplined studied several entheogen medicines. Due winter times he travels to the Amazonian rainforest to deepen his awakening in the shamanic source of these specific medicines. Zelday full time dedicates his life working as an awakening guidance, sound healer and musician. Nowadays he is contributing his gifted wisdom, sound and music to the field of spiritual awakening and transformation in sessions, ceremonies and retreats.
