THE COCOON EXPERIENCE

The deepest exhale your nervous system has been waiting for.

Only a few cocoons left for Sunday!

The only space you'll need this season to soften, receive, and reconnect with yourself — and what truly matters.

Resreve Your Cocoon!

You will be able to choose your time during checkout.


What is the Cocoon Experience?

The Cocoon Experience is built to help you slow down, regulate your nervous system, and reconnect with yourself.

Ceremonial-grade cacao made from organic criollo beans, aerial silk suspension, live sound shaped to the energy of the room, and guided meditation tailored to each session's theme — working together in one room, for one small group.

Whether you arrive overwhelmed, disconnected, in transition, or simply in need of a pause, you'll leave lighter, calmer, and nourished.

What's included:

  • 105 minutes, capped at 8 people — never a crowd
  • Your own aerial silk cocoon, refreshed after every session
  • Ceremonial-grade cacao with a distinct spice blend, poured and guided by Sasha
  • Live sound for the full session — handpan, crystal bowls, chimes, shruti box, drums, bells, and sometimes gong — played by Johann, shaped in real time to the room, never a recording
  • Guided meditation and an oracle card reading
  • A private studio space, not a shared class
  • A take-home gift

Early Bird — $115 SOLD OUT
Standard — $135
Supporter rate, if you'd like to help sustain this work — $150

The Elements

Cacao

A heart-opening ritual that supports emotional clarity, presence, and grounded connection.

Cocoon

Suspended in aerial silks, your body is fully supported — the physical weightlessness is what lets your nervous system actually let go.

Sound

Live handpan, crystal bowls, and chimes move the body into rest — no playlist, no recording, shaped by what the room needs in the moment.


Breath

Guided breathing and meditation that regulates the nervous system and prepares the body to receive the rest of the experience.

Touch

Grounding touch that releases tension and deepens the feeling of being cared for.

Why Cocoon Experience?

A cocoon is one of the few places in nature where stillness does the work.

Our bodies work the same way. When we finally feel safe enough to soften, the nervous system regulates, the breath deepens, and space opens for clarity and connection.

Cacao carries real, measurable benefits alongside the ritual — theobromine and magnesium that gently lift mood and ease tension, and a long history as a heart-opening plant medicine across the cultures that have worked with it for centuries.

Sound does its own quiet work on the body. Live frequencies — handpan, crystal bowls, chimes — help shift the nervous system from alert to at ease, supporting what's known as heart-brain coherence: a measurable state where the heart and mind fall into sync.

The Cocoon Experience brings these elements into one, unique blend — an invitation to pause, so you return to your life more present, grounded, and alive.

Meet the Facilittators

Sasha Sakhar

Founder of SUGARHAUS

For the past seven years, Sasha has been creating immersive experiences that blend ceremonial cacao, authentic connection, and modern nervous system practices.

Inspired by years living in Guatemala and Costa Rica and trained in Human Design, Authentic Relating, somatic facilitation, and transformational coaching, she creates spaces where people can slow down, reconnect with themselves, and experience genuine human connection.

Through SUGARHAUS, Sasha is reimagining wellness as something both deeply meaningful and beautifully designed—bringing ancient rituals into modern life through experiences that feel intentional, elegant, and profoundly restorative.

Johann Bermudez

Founder of Alternabeat

Johann is the sound behind the stillness. He builds a live soundscape from hand pan, crystal bowls, chimes, shruti box, drum, and bells, often layered with synthesizers for a deeper, more immersive sound journey.

Every frequency in the room is played live, shaped by what the space needs in that moment — a second facilitator, moving the body through the experience alongside the cacao, the silks, and the breath.



Hosted with Petra Hanson

Founder of Aerapy Method

Her gentle aerial practice blends supportive movement and aerial silks to help the body unwind, soften, and return to a state of ease. Her unique approach creates the feeling of weightlessness that makes the Cocoon Experience unlike anything else.
