And now, take a deep breath in, and relax completely…you are about to travel a great journey…
What is a ShamanicSOUL Journey?
To embark upon a ShamanicSOUL Journey is to welcome a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping, induced by a specifically guided meditation. A ShamanicSOUL Journey is similar to the yogic state induced via Yoga Nidra meditation but also uses the breath alongside other deepening techniques taking you deeper into altered states of consciousness where the constraints of 3D limitations dissolve and journeying non-ordinary realms becomes possible.
A comparable experience to ShamanicSOUL Journeying is lucid dreaming. 'Lucid dreaming' is the term referring to the experience of being aware or 'awake' while dreaming during normal sleep. While it is very possible to initiate lucid dreaming with planning, intention and practice, lucid dreams generally happen by accident. A ShamanicSOUL Journey is an intentionally planned journey.
What to expect:
Each journey has a different focus. Themes such as ‘find your spirit guide’, ‘walk through the forest’, ‘travel through the universe’ or ‘let go of stress’ are just some examples. We begin each journey with embodiment practices which include movement and breath meditation, to come home to your body before settling in for the journey.
In the beginning, the focus is on relaxation through the practice of a gentle cyclical breathing pattern. Slowly, we sink deeper into the more unconscious, sub-conscious parts of the mind - releasing the cyclical breathing pattern as you are invited to surrender to moving to deeper levels, vis soothing vocal guidance, and into the realms that lie beneath the everyday, thinking mind, to a space where greater insight and self-discovery are available to you.

Things to note:
Centre of You has plenty of bolsters, blankets, and cushions for you to get cosy with. Wear comfortable, lose clothes. An eyemask and journal is recommended as are any familiar personal items that will aid you in feeling grounded (crystal, teddy, scarf, etc).
Arrival: Endeavour to arrive between 6:15pm - 6:30pm. To preserve the experience for all involved, doors will close at 6:45pm. Truly, it breaks our heart to have to turn latecomers away yet the disruption to the whole group experience by virtue of lateness does require management. We ask that you find understanding and consideration for the timebound nature of the container and make every effort to arrive on time.
Driving: Know Centre of You is on Chapel St and ample time to find a car spot is best to be factored into your plans. Park direct on Chapel St (spots unmetered after 5pm) or in Anchor Place, the open-air parking lot in the side street that runs opposite Centre of You (unmetered after 4pm).
Public transport - tram: Both the number 6 tram & 78 tram stop on the corner of High St/Chapel St. This is stop 31 on the number 6 tram (Moreland/Glen Iris) & stop 45 on the number 78 tram (North Richmond/Balaclava).
Public transport - train: Both Prahran & Windsor stations along the Sandringham Line will get you walking distance to Centre of You.
Finding Centre of You: Centre of You is nestled within the arcade that Chapel St Bazaar is in (217 Chapel St). It is up a flight of stairs with a wide landing at the half-way-point. Unfortunately, this current version of Centre of You does not have a wheelchair accessible lift. If you could use support in getting up the stairs or would like to discuss ways to make your experience at Centre of You more comfortable, please reach out via grace@centreofyou.com.au or via DM over on Centre of You Instagram.
