In-Person Cacao Ceremony

Service Description

Cacao opens our heart, with ‘mother earth medicine,’ and holds us in a sacred & safe space where we’re able to feel & express more deeply, creating an opportunity for deep healing to take place. ~ What is Cacao? ~ Think of hot chocolate but ceremonial. Cacao is the minimally processed version of chocolate that retains all of its physical & spiritual health benefits. The cacao used in our ceremonies is sourced from a Mayan family in Guatemala who treat it with care, love & respect. ~ What are the benefits? ~ Cacao has Theobromine, an enzyme that acts as a vasodilator, which opens your arteries and your heart, which allows for better blood circulation and uplifts your mood. Then there’s anandamide, otherwise known as the bliss chemical (ananda = bliss), which helps to provide feelings of peace, comfort & even euphoria. In addition, cacao contains a large amount of vitamins & minerals such as magnesium, calcium, iron, zinc, copper, potassium & manganese. Cacao is considered to be one of the most powerful sources of magnesium on the planet, which is a master mineral in that it helps us to better absorb all other nutrients. The physical benefits are just the beginning. Cacao has the capacity to heal on every level: Emotional cleansing, clearing, processing grief, physical release, spiritual healing, clarity, purpose, opening up to giving & receiving love, etc. ~ What’s a cacao ceremony like? ~ Every ceremony involves guided meditation & breathing to drop into our body and heart-space. In this space we feel into and set our intentions for the ceremony: What does our heart truly seek? What is ready to be felt or expressed? Where does our healing lie? When our intentions are made clear, we bless our cacao with words of gratitude and then we drink. Cacao ceremonies are intuitively led. The spirit of cacao may lead us into movement like yoga or dance, talking about what's on our heart, diving deeper into gaining clarity, clearing or cleansing energy, leading us to forgive ourselves or others, or feeling & expressing our emotions. Oracle cards may be used as a way to connect with our highest & purest spirit guides & angels to give us direction in our lives in the ways that are in our highest & purest good. No two ceremonies are ever the same. There's always something to be gained from this sacred space. *Ceremonies may also include gentle yoga, meditation practice, and/or oracle reading. **An additional $33 will be added for each additional participant.
