What Is A Cacao Ceremony?

A cacao ceremony is an ancient ceremony honouring the medicine of cacao. Cacao is the bean that is fermented, and dried in the sun or roasted, then ground into a powder, and from this can be made into chocolate, and many different chocolate treats. In ceremony it was known to be made into a drink or elixir to be consumed by those desiring to receive it's teachings. This powerful medicine was  used for thousands of years in ceremony, and still is today, to connect with ones heart space, invoke feelings of bliss and joy, and to commune with the teachings of this sacred medicine for the purpose of healing and insight. This medicine is known to open the energetic heart space, and create feelings of joy and euphoria. When worked with in a ceremonial container this medicine has the power to help you connect with the feeling of love for yourself, others; and the world as a whole. It increases feelings of connectedness to ones own higher self, infinite wisdom and guidance; offering new perspectives to create necessary shifts in ones life to optimize personal growth, self-love and confidence. The first recorded history of it's use was in the Mayan culture where it was worked with for the duration of the reign of the Maya, and supported a healthy community and connection with the healing powers of nature, and spirit. In this ceremony you will have the space and support to rest your body, and recharge your nervous system. We will weave the journey with intuitive and gentle yoga to open and balance the body, mind and spirit. Leave feeling relaxed, restored and connected to your Highest Self!

What You Will Experience

This Cacao Ceremony will wrap you in warmth and relaxation with a cozy cup of cacao to open and connect to your heart. We will pull oracle cards to connect with your higher self and intuition and include a journalling exercise to connect with your dreams and call in your highest timeline.
