Harvest Full Moon Plant Medicine Retreat
A Full-Day Ceremonial Experience with Breathwork, Sound Healing & Sacred Cacao
12:00–10:00 pm •
Saturday, September 26, 2026 • Etobicoke, Toronto
If you’ve been longing to feel more connected—to yourself, to others, and to life itself—you may have arrived at exactly the right place.
Imagine giving yourself one entire day.
Nowhere else to be.
Nothing to accomplish.
No one to care for except yourself.
A day to breathe deeply, listen inwardly, and reconnect with parts of yourself that may have been waiting quietly beneath the demands of everyday life.
Whether this is your first retreat or one of many, you are welcome if you feel ready to step away from the noise and spend a day exploring with greater presence, honesty, and curiosity.
Centered around the ceremonial use of sacred plant medicines, this intimate Harvest Full Moon retreat also weaves together extended breathwork, immersive sound healing, ceremonial cacao, guided meditation, reflective journaling, ritual, and intentional community within a carefully held container.
For generations, the harvest season has symbolized gratitude, reflection, and release. As Ontario’s forests blaze with crimson, gold, and orange before their leaves begin to fall, nature reminds us that letting go is not the opposite of growth—it is often its completion.
Perhaps the greatest gift of ceremony is not the experience itself, but the clarity that follows. When we meet ourselves with more honesty, compassion, and curiosity, meaningful change often begins on its own.
Throughout the Day
Experiences may include:
- Harvest Full Moon reflection and guided journaling
- Extended breathwork journey
- Ceremonial use of sacred plant medicines
- Cacao ceremony with live medicine music
- Immersive sound healing
- Guided inner child meditation
- Plant-wisdom-inspired self-inquiry
- Group sharing and integration
- Ritual practices supporting gratitude, release, and renewal
Our role is not to direct your experience, but to create the conditions in which your own wisdom can emerge.
Your Facilitators
Crystal Aeyan is a Mexico-based sound alchemist, plant medicine ceremony guide, and trauma-informed transpersonal therapist.
