Unboxing Ourselves is a six-week guided exploration that gives you the tools to draw your own map of who you are sexually and emotionally, and to build a community to hold all of you.

It’s not a curriculum. It’s not therapy. It’s not a workshop that teaches you the ‘right’ way to be.

It’s guided exploration that helps you examine the cultural identities you’ve been handed and the ones you’ve chosen, and discover what actually serves you now.

Dates:
September 8th, 15th, 22nd, 29th, October 6th, 13th.

WEATHER IS SUPPORTING THIS EVENT, STAY TUNED FOR RESCHEDULE INFO.

n a world driven by speed, noise, and distraction, the soul craves ritual—something intentional, sacred, and steady. Few practices blend art, spiritual connection and ultimately healing, as powerfully as the mandala ritual.

Beyond its beauty, a mandala is a tool for spiritual and physical transformation. When practiced as a regular ritual, it activates your subconscious, aligns your energy, and rewires your body-mind connection. 

We will use materials from nature including sticks, stones, pedals, sand, berries and whatever else we can get our hands on to create ephemeral designs on the patio of the Hive House. Make one big design or several small ones. 

Kathryn Dickel, Pollinate's Spiritual Director, and Mel Guanci facilitate.

When was the last time you dismissed a compliment, didn’t take that offer of help, or put everyone’s needs before your own? Many of us know how to give love, but do we really know how to receive it especially in our important relationships? The Pollinate Cacao Ritual was specifically created to help us step into the space of deep receiving and begin our journey to challenge our lack of self love expressed when we don’t fully receive the love of others.

This ritual, aided by the heart opening power of ceremonial cacao uses partnered exercises to continually pull you into a space of deep receiving. Open to all confiurations of 1-1 relationship (romantic, friends, family etc.). Sign up as a pair. Plan for about 2 hours of time.

While beneficial, this ritual is not meant to be used as a therapy modality for any relationships in a challenging phase of their growth. We recommend you consult your therapist as to whether this is the right time to engage in deepening your connection with this ritual. Free free to reach out to hello@pollinateritual.com if you have questions about the ritual or want to talk through anything. 

This ritual does involve touch, so please be aware of this if you struggle with touch

The Tantric Drum Circle exists to bring you back into your own body. We use rhythm the way it's been used for as long as there have been bodies to feel it: to quiet the thinking, move what's stuck, and drum you home to your own heartbeat. This isn't a performance or a jam. It's a guided, inward practice, an hour to stop managing yourself and simply come back to your own rhythm.

The purpose isn't the sound. It's coming back to yourself.

Bring your own drum. No experience needed. Come as you are.
