Medicine Journey: Healing in Community Healing is not a solo journey - all of us require connection, support and accountability to keep us moving in the right direction. Ceremonies open deep doors, but without the right preparation and integration, those openings can feel overwhelming, incomplete and at worst, harmful. This framework is designed to teach and empower you to harness the power of community as an essential vessel for your ongoing healing and growth. What Makes This Different: Harness the Power of Community: By preparing and integrating as part of a small group, you’ll discover how connection and mutual support amplify the transformative potential of your journey. Empower Yourself: By becoming your own healer. We will give you the tools, insights, and confidence to navigate your healing path long after the ceremony itself. Be Part of a Framework for Growth: You’ll join a micro-community that extends beyond the ceremony, offering support, accountability, and resources to keep you grounded, inspired and moving forward. What’s Included: Pre-Ceremony Preparation: Participate in a group call to set intentions, open up, and connect with your fellow participants. Learn how to prepare to get the most out of your medicine journey. Receive a comprehensive guide on how to prepare. 1-1 Consultation: A private consultation with Diego to discuss and decide on the right dose for your journey. You will receive a link to book this call upon booking. The Ceremony: Step into a safe, sacred space for healing in a small group ceremony, where you’ll be supported yet empowered to work by taking your intention directly to the medicine. Integration and Ongoing Support: After the ceremony, you’ll receive a comprehensive guide, join a follow-up call, and continue to thrive as part of a micro-community hub designed to keep you on track.

Medicine Journey: Women's Ceremony There is something powerful that happens when women gather together to heal. We live in a world that constantly asks us to speed up, toughen up, and disconnect from ourselves and from each other. This ceremony is a chance to slow down and come back to who you were before a lifetime of conditioning. Through a guided inner journey with the medicine, you’ll reconnect with your body’s wisdom, your own rhythm, and the deeper truth that’s been there all along. What Makes This Different: Harness the Power of the Feminine: By journeying as part of a small group, you’ll discover how connection and mutual support amplify the transformative potential of your journey. This ceremony is designed for women, by a woman. The space holds what we’re often not given room for in daily life: emotional truth, embodied wisdom, and the depth that comes from being fully met. Empower Yourself: By becoming your own healer. We will give you the tools, insights, and confidence to navigate your healing path long after the ceremony itself. Be Part of a Framework for Growth: You’ll connect with other women from the community and find support that extends beyond the ceremony, offering support, accountability, and resources to keep you grounded, inspired and moving forward.

The Ceremony This is a quiet, powerful space where you can focus on your intention and go inwards. Melissa will guide the day with care and clarity, creating the conditions for you to meet yourself fully.

Regular expressions training course description Regular expressions are an extremely powerful tool for manipulating text and data. They are now standard features in a wide range of languages and popular tools, including Python and MySQL. Regular expressions allow you to code complex and subtle text processing that you never imagined could be automated. Once you've mastered regular expressions, they'll become an invaluable part of your toolkit. You will wonder how you ever got by without them. What will you learn Use Regular Expressions. Troubleshoot Regular Expressions. Compare RE features among different versions. Explain how the regular expression engine works. Optimize REs. Match what you want, not what you don't want. Regular expressions training course details Who will benefit: Anyone looking to use regular expressions. Prerequisites: None. Duration 1 day Regular expressions training course contents Introduction to Regular Expressions Solving real problems, REs as a language, the filename analogy, language analogy, RE frame of mind, searching text files: egrep, egrep metacharacters, start and end of the line, character classes, matching any character with dot, alternation, ignoring differences in capitalization, word boundaries, optional items, other quantifiers: repetition, parentheses and backreferences, the great escape, expanding the foundation, linguistic diversification, the goal of a RE, more examples, RE nomenclature, Improving on the status quo. Extended introductory examples A short introduction to Perl, matching text with regular expressions, toward a more real-world example, side effects of a successful match, Intertwined regular expression, intermission, modifying text with regular expressions, example: form letter, example: prettifying a stock price, automated editing, a small mail utility, adding commas to a number with lookaround, text-to-HTML conversion, that doubled-word thing.

Sacred Kakaw Ceremony and Sound Journey You are warmly invited to join us for this autumnal gathering in the Sunhouse, guided by Annabelle and Arjuna. We will begin by sharing a kakaw ritual together before flowing into a long sound medicine journey to deeply relax, release, rejuvenate on a cellular level and experience a vaster state of awareness. Instruments include a Chiron gong, crystal singing bowls, drums, flutes, voice, kora, handpan, chimes, rattles and more. KAKAW RITUAL We will share a ceremonial brew of the plant Kakaw (a Mayan spelling of Cacao), with honour to traditions Toltec and Mayan. Kakaw opens the heart, connecting us to the ancestral wisdom in our blood, to our sensuous creativity and inspiration, and to the unseen realms. She is a grandmother plant for bringing about equilibrium and elemental connection, for supporting emotional expression, illuminating the shadows, and celebrating the bliss of existence. The Kakaw we will be communing with comes from an ecological plantation in the ancient Lacandona jungle of Chiapas, Mexico, where it is lovingly tended by a Mayan family and prepared with the intention for it to be shared ceremonially. SOUND MEDICINE A deep meditative journey, vibrating the material of our being to bring us into a more harmonious flow. Amongst other things, it supports our bodies in relaxation and stress release, circulation, detoxification, and cellular rejuvention. Meditatively, it can guide us into waking dream states whereby we can reconcile subconscious memories, receive clarity and guidance, and journey into the unseen. YOUR HOSTS ANNABELLE CHARANBANI My path is devoted to the healing and creative arts, supporting people to come into greater presence and to engage with life with more passion, ease, curiosity and confidence. For this, we work towards optimising physical health, creative flow, connecting with spirit, and allowing the heart and soul to lead with greater clarity. I primarily serve with kundalini yoga and meditation, sound medicine, intuitive storytelling, ritual and holistic massage, accompanied by various plants. This line of work is ultimately about finding balance. Of solar and lunar, personal and impersonal, infinity and finity consciousness, earth-water-wind-fire-ether. It includes detoxing physically and emotionally, reconciling and releasing tired memories, finding greater flow with creative energy and joy, and stimulating sensuality. We develop our relationship with the soul, and we become more awake to the ways in which wisdom and guidance is being transmitted in each moment. I’m in deep gratitude to my many teachers and guides – human, plant, animal, mineral, angel and other – with whose perspective and company I’ve had the fortune to be gifted. ARJUNA MAGEE I am a multi-instrumentalist with over 20 years of experience in music performance, recording, and teaching drums across the UK and abroad, and was raised in Glastonbury. From an early age I developed a passion for music and rhythm. I was born into a bhakti tradition, and whilst on a family holiday to India at the age of 10 I fell in love with the ecstatic heartfelt folk music, kirtan. This began my journey of music education, receiving lessons on the Mridanga, the Harmonium, the drum kit, the African djembe, Indian, Irish and Japanese flutes, guitar, hand pan, kora and singing. Since the age of 14 I’ve been performing with bands around Europe, playing and exploring many styles including Funk, Jazz, Reggae, Rock, Soul, Folk and World music. As well as making music, a lot of my focus is now directed toward studying music and rhythm therapy and offering this in care homes, hospitals and hospices.
