Sacred Cacao Ceremony ๑ A Heart Opening Journey

Raw cacao, a natural plant medicine has been used for thousands of years in the Mayan culture of South America for medicinal, spiritual and ceremonial purposes. In Mayan tradition, the word cacao is literally translated as “heart blood“, emphasizing the importance the plant possesses in their culture. Cacao is a true heart opener, a soft and gentle medicine that will guide you to the door, but it's up to you if you want to open it or not.

Cacao also increases the flow of blood and oxygen to the brain as well as induces the release of endorphins and dopamine, our feel-good hormones. As a result, we are happier and our creativity is reaching peak states.

THE CEREMONY
Since ancient times cacao has been used as a medicine to heal physical, mental and spiritual illnesses. Cacao has been shown to boost the immune system and lower cholesterol and blood pressure as well as leading to euphoria and deeper spiritual connection.

As the cacao brings us back to our natural state of feeling, we sink with our head into our heart and connect ourselves intuitively with Mother Earth and the cycles of nature.

Every month is a different journey, depending on the moon phase and season. The space is supported by meditation, a deep energetic cleansing, heart songs, movement and sharing.

OUR CACAO
Our pure, raw cacao comes from Guatemala. The Criollo bean cacao is sourced with the highest active compounds to produce the most mind altering experience possible. It is blessed by cacao shaman Keith and intended to work within ceremony to support in transmuting energy. This cacao does not force you anywhere, but it will act as a partner healing medicine, supporting you in whatever you wish to open, heal or experience. The cacao elixer is completely safe to drink and has no hallucinating effect.

EXTRA INFORMATION
๑ Wear something comfortable and warm. Tip: use layers!
๑ Don't eat too much before the ceremony so there's room for the cacao to do its work. Feel free to bring a small bite like some nuts, to the ceremony in case you need to fill your stomach.
๑ If you are on antidepressants, you can still join the ceremony but not drink more than a few sips of the cacao since cacao and antidepressants do not mix and can have harmful side effects.
๑ Bring a bottle of water or tea. Drink enough water during the ceremony, without proper hydration, headaches can occur.

With love
