What is a Cacao Ceremony?
Immerse yourself in the rich and sacred tradition of cacao. Allow this ancient plant medicine to open your heart, expand your consciousness, and facilitate deep emotional healing. Most Cacao Ceremonies are held monthly in beautiful community circles, but if you’d like your own private ceremony complete with oracle cards and a guided mediation, just ask! Either way, the experience is not one to be missed.
What does that look like?
The style of a Cacao Ceremony is as varied as the number of practitioners. As a Cacao Ceremonialist, I invite you into my space where we will sit in a circle a chair or on the floor (bring your own cushion and/or blanket). I explain everything that will be happening that night and we open our circle with words and expressions of gratitude. We may introduce ourselves and share our personal intentions for the evening. One is never required to share out loud – there is always a choice which is respected. We might expand the evening with a sound bath, breathwork, meditation or an oracle card experience and on an extra special night, a catered meal. Be sure to check each separate event listing for all the details.
Benefits of a Cacao Ceremony
Cacao is literally a “heart opener.” Not only does it sit warm in the body, but it is also a blood stimulant while simultaneously fostering feelings of creativity, focus and well-being. Folks report having beautiful meditative experiences, feelings of hope and happiness and most of all, the comfort of being in community, which is one of the keys to a happy and long life.
If you’d like to learn more about Cacao before partaking in a ceremony, look for my workshop class where I dive deep into the origins of this plant, the ingredients, how to make it, and event including a taste test.
