Community Leader Offering - rhythmic Breath Journey

  • 717 Jervis Street Vancouver, BC, V6E 4L5 Canada (map)

About Our Community Leader Offerings:

This event is being co-organized with one of our Community Leaders. For these collaborative events, we empower community facilitators to take the reins and create their own Flying Sage Event. There is no regular cadence at the moment for these types of events. Sage and Wizard members still get free access so if you are not a member already, consider joining us. 

About This Event:

This week, Flying Sage Community Leader and facilitator Gabo will lead you on a breathwork ceremony that aims to create an intimate bond between you and your breath. By weaving storytelling, meditation and breathwork Gabo will create a safe container for you to explore the deep wisdom that your body has within it. Come prepared to relax and drop into new and familiar sensations.

About This Week’s Facilitator: Gabriel Largaespada

Gabriel is a movement coach at Restore Human in Vancouver, was born and raised in Nicaragua and has always had an affinity for the realm of the physical, the psychological and the spiritual.

Gabo’s connection to the spiritual realm was initiated through psychedelic medicines, meditation and breath work practices. He’s guided group meditations, facilitated healing events and now aims to continue furthering his passion for helping people through a modality that he finds incredibly powerful, psychedelic medicines.

Gabriel is a Community Leader with The Flying Sage and has facilitated many integration circles as one of the organization's core team members.
