Wow! What an incredible day Sunday, July 28th was. The energy at Nexus Essentia was absolutely electric! From the moment the doors opened at Studio Wayne McGregor, a vibrant buzz filled the air. Little did we know then just how transformative the next few hours would be, how deeply we'd connect, and the incredible journey of sound and self-discovery that awaited us.
The day was filled with invigorating breathwork, ancient Qi Gong and Kemetic yoga, transformative NLP workshops, and the majestic sounds of the 40-inch gong, drums, and Tibetan sound bowls. And the food... The CBD Tea... Too much to talk about!!!
A Day of Connection and Transformation
You could feel the shift the instant people crossed the threshold. It was like they were shedding the weight of the outside world with each step, their anxieties and worries melting away. By the time we began the first session, a solid sense of shared purpose had settled over the room. Everyone was fully present, their energy focused and open. It was in that space of collective vulnerability and intention that the true magic of Nexus Essentia unfolded.
It was amazing to witness how quickly strangers became a community within those studio walls. From the moment the doors opened, there were smiles exchanged, hugs reaching out in the introduction, and genuine warmth in every greeting. And as the day progressed, that sense of connection only deepened. Each shared breath, each resonant gong strike, seemed to weave us together, creating a chain of energy that vibrated with understanding and support.
A Symphony of Transformation
But if there was one moment that truly transcended the ordinary, it was the Orchestral Sound Healing session. Picture this: the warm, golden light dimming as the majestic 40-inch gong, a bronze giant, thrummed to life. Waves of sound, deep and resonant, washed over the room as Tibetan singing bowls added their ethereal voices, their delicate chimes weaving through the air. Then came the heartbeat of the African drums, grounding us, connecting us to the earth. It wasn't just sound; it was a vibration that seeped into your very core, loosening tension you didn't even know you were holding.
The Orchestral Sound Healing session was like stepping into a sacred temple woven from sound. The 40-inch gong, a bronze sun at its centre, pulsed with life, sending out waves of sonic energy that rippled through the room. Delicate as wind chimes, the Tibetan bowls added their celestial song, their notes sparkling like stars against a velvet sky.
No one wanted it to end - Not even myself!
As the day drew to a close, a lingering joy hung in the air, a shared glow radiating from each individual. The transformative power of Nexus Essentia was undeniable – faces that had arrived etched with stress now beamed with a newfound lightness.
As a final touch of magic, Sister Letitia, with her infectious warmth, gifted each participant a carefully curated bag overflowing with exclusive goodies, extending the spirit of the day long after the last gong sound faded. Conversations buzzed with excitement for the next event, whispers of "when" not "if" echoing throughout the now familiar space.
Some even dared to dream aloud, their voices laced with longing for a deeper dive, a two-day immersion into the world of Nexus Essentia. The seed was planted, a collective desire taking root, promising an even brighter future for this burgeoning community.
The Aftermath: A Journey Worth Every Effort
Tuesday morning arrived, and I boarded the plane back to Portugal, the familiar scent of jet fuel a stark contrast to the lingering aroma of sandalwood and sage from the studio. My body ached – hauling the gong, the drums, and all the instruments that were so vital to the experience, back and forth across countries was no small feat.
Exhaustion tugged at me, a physical manifestation of the energy I had poured into Nexus Essentia. But as I closed my eyes, it wasn't the weight of the journey that filled me, but the weight of its impact. The echoes of shared breaths, the collective sigh as the gong resonated through the room, the joyful tears and heartfelt embraces – these were the souvenirs I carried within. It took a full week for my body to truly recover, but my spirit, fueled by the memory of so many souls ignited with possibility, felt lighter than ever.
With two more retreats planned for September and October and a festival in May 2025 on the horizon, my schedule is packed. However, the success of this event has only fueled my eagerness to continue this journey.
