Do I need experience?
1
No experience is necessary. This gathering is open to everyone, whether it's your first time or you've participated in ceremonies before.
Simply come with an open mind and a willingness to slow down. Throughout the session, you'll be gently guided through breathwork, shamanic energetic clearing, meditation, and the tranquil sounds of the healing instruments.
You may also choose to arrive with an intention—something you wish to invite into your life or something you're ready to release. If you don't have an intention, that's perfectly okay too. Allow yourself to simply be present and receive whatever the experience has to offer.
What is ceremonial cacao?
2
A cacao ceremony is a heart-centered gathering that uses ceremonial-grade cacao to support meditation, reflection, and connection. Unlike ordinary drinking chocolate, ceremonial cacao is minimally processed and prepared with intention, allowing its natural richness and traditional qualities to be experienced more fully.
Cacao is often described as a gentle “heart opener.” Rather than creating an altered state, it can help invite a sense of warmth, presence, emotional awareness, and inner connection. During the ceremony, you will be guided to slow down, set an intention, and listen more deeply to yourself.
We begin by honoring the cacao and the intention of the gathering. After drinking the cacao, you will be guided through meditation, shamanic energetic clearing, and sound healing. This creates a supportive space to release what feels heavy, reconnect with your heart, and restore balance.
Each person’s experience is unique. You may feel deeply relaxed, emotionally open, reflective, energized, or simply more present. There is no right or wrong way to experience the ceremony.
No previous experience with cacao, meditation, energy healing, or sound healing is needed. You are welcome to come exactly as you are.
Is it okay if I don't drink cacao?
3
That is completely okay, and you are still warmly welcome to participate. Drinking cacao is always optional.
This is your experience, and you are encouraged to honor what feels right for your body. You can simply allow the breathwork, shamanic energetic clearing, meditation, and sound healing to be the focus of your journey.
You will still be fully included in the ceremony and invited to set an intention, connect inward, and receive the experience in your own way.
What do I bring?
4
Please bring whatever helps you feel comfortable and supported during the ceremony.
Required:
Yoga mat (we will be seated or lying on the floor throughout the session)
Optional:
Pillow for extra comfort
Blanket to stay warm and cozy
Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to relax. There are no yoga poses or physical exercises during this gathering—you'll simply be invited to sit or lie comfortably on your mat as you experience the guided meditation, breathwork, shamanic energetic clearing, and sound healing.
The more comfortable you are, the easier it is to settle into the experience and be fully present.
