Transcend Fest VT 2026

Accepting this invitation simply means showing up exactly as you are, open to your own curiosities and intentions while experiencing some of the most potently delightful cacao you've ever had.

The essence of chocolate is meant to be known and shared. Its true essence, similiar to aspects of what the human spirit desires to thrive, is ready to connect as a sacred ally to help restore the natural balance within. Allow your curioisity to take you to an edge where joy, courage, acceptance, and peace meet. 
Explore beyond the bounds of the ordinary by entering the inner wisdom of your own heart and inviting cacao to amplify your intentions, energy and dissolve any energetic blockages and distortions.

Embodied Brush Yoga: A Collective Art Experience invites you to slip into a world where movement becomes paint, breath becomes rhythm, and your body becomes the brush. With body-safe pigments on hands and feet, we'll step onto a collective canvas and be guided through a slow, fluid yoga flow that awakens the senses and softens you into your own skin. Each gesture leaves its trace on the shared canvas. Let your body speak in a swirl of color, a press of presence, and a moment of deeply embodied emotion translated into form.

As the class unfolds, the space becomes alive with collective expression: footsteps of grounding, handprints of release, spirals of playful joy and somatic surrender. Together, we create a living tapestry of embodied experience: a visual imprint of community, connection, and the sensual intelligence of the moving body. By the end, the canvas becomes a piece of collective art, holding the story of every breath, every touch, every felt moment we shared.

There comes a moment when seeking outward answers no longer satisfies — when the soul whispers that the truth has always lived within. This one-hour sacred immersion is an invitation to gently enter the Akashic Records — the luminous field of consciousness where your soul’s story, gifts, lessons, and purpose are held in vibrational form. In a grounded yet mystical container, we will explore what the Records are, how they may be accessed with reverence and safety, and how they illuminate your unique path of service and creation. Through guided reflection, energetic preparation, and intuitive attunement, you will begin to recognize the patterns that shaped you, the wisdom that has followed you across lifetimes, and the deeper mission quietly unfolding beneath your everyday life. This is not about predicting the future — it is about remembering who you have always been.

This experiential tantra workshop is an invitation to rebuild a loving relationship with your body, your energy, and the way you connect with others.

Through grounded practices such as breathwork, embodied awareness, eye gazing, consent exercises, nervous-system attunement, and conscious communication, participants explore how self-trust, emotional safety, and presence directly shape intimacy, attraction, and connection. Rather than focusing on performance, this class supports you in reconnecting with your natural vitality — the life force that fuels confidence, pleasure, magnetism, creativity, and authentic relating.

Participants are guided to explore how their relationship with their own body, boundaries, and desires influences the quality of their relationships with others. As self-connection deepens, many people experience a renewed sense of sensual aliveness, clearer communication, deeper emotional intimacy, and a more empowered relationship with their own sexuality and personal energy.

This workshop offers practical tools for real life — supporting healthier communication, stronger boundaries, deeper trust, and more conscious connection in romantic relationships, friendships, and within yourself.
No partner is required. All practices are trauma-aware, consent-centered, inclusive, and fully optional. You are always invited to participate at your own comfort level.

Are you drawn to crystals, and perhaps started a small collection but not sure what to do with them? Join Rachel to learn how we can invite crystals into our lives and learn to connect with their energies for healing, support, love, protection and more. We will learn about how to select the right stones for you, care for them, assign them tasks, align with the chakras and work with crystal grids. Attendees will leave with information about safe vs. toxic crystals, rituals for daily use and find inspiration on how to tap into the latent magic of the stones.

Discover the fascinating world of numerology and explore how numbers can reveal insights into personality, life purpose, relationships, and future opportunities.  Join us for an engaging lecture that introduces the ancient wisdom of numerology and its practical applications in everyday life.  Suitable for both beginners and those curious about spiritual self-discovery.

In this workshop we will focus on healing each of the 7 primary energy centers, chakras, using energy healing, sound & intuition. Learn various practices and techniques to maintain balance within each chakra and clear/cleanse stagnation/blocks. It’s time we take our power back and remember our innate wisdom and healing abilities!

Join Metamorphosis and ThirdTone for a guided exploration of consciousness, connection, and nervous system restoration. This immersive experience begins with a carefully facilitated microdose ceremony of our beloved tri-strain psilocybin sacrament "Trinity", led by the Metamorphosis team, creating a foundation for presence, intention, and expanded awareness.

Participants will then be guided into a transformative entheoacoustic sound journey by ThirdTone founders Lisa Masé and Evan Premo. Through precision-crafted frequencies, immersive sound design, and deep listening practices, this experience supports relaxation, insight, emotional integration, and a profound connection to self and community. Together, Metamorphosis and ThirdTone offer a unique fusion of intentional plant medicine practice, sound medicine, and heart-centered facilitation designed to inspire healing, coherence, and human flourishing.

There comes a moment when a woman no longer asks who she is becoming — only what sheis ready to reclaim. This one-hour ceremonial circle is a sacred pause... a remembering.Together we enter a held, intimate space where invisibility softens, over-giving dissolves, and the quiet voice of inner wisdom rises.

Within this circle, the living current of the Goddess awakens — the sovereign grace of Isis, the devotional fire of Mary Magdalene, the luminous wisdom of Sophia, and the threshold-guarding power of Hekate. These are not distant deities, but ancient names for forces already moving through your body, your story, your becoming.

Through guided reflection, gentle ritual, and embodied presence, you will honor the woman you have been and anchor the sovereign woman you are. This is not self-improvement. It is sacred return.

You will not leave with more to do — you will leave more fully yourself.

🌙 Will you meet her?

Come on and come all, festi-fam both old and new, as we flow through an all-levels vinyasa practice centered around the themes of community, connection, and finding "your people!" Together we'll move our bodies, sync up our breath, and hone in on the intention of stoking the fire of that special sangha that evolves through the unique connections forged in the festival scene! Enjoyable and accessible for all, from the beginner to the experienced practitioner, and set to a specially-curated, goosebump-inducing, heartfelt playlist, may this session remind us that, even after we all go back home, the bonds formed here are palpable and strong.

We will create time for introductions, setting ground rules to ensure everyone's comfort, 2 or 3 "authentic relating" or somatic exercises and a little snack. "Authentic Relating (AR) is a set of practices, games and exercises designed to foster genuine, vulnerable and meaningful connections by reducing small talk and promoting present-moment awareness. It enhances emotional intelligence, empathy, and conflict resolution by encouraging participants to share true feelings and navigate interpersonal dynamics." (ART International).

Pharmakeia is the practice of plant spirit magic. It can be a powerful tool to help us develop our spiritual practice by removing the illusion of separation between our worlds and help us recognize the duality within ourselves. In this workshop we will meet some of our plant allies through meditation, talk about how we can incorporate into our practice and perform the Khernips ritual to dedicate ourselves to the path.
