Spirals of the heart. Cacao Ceremony of connection.
Saturday 17th May 3.33pm-6.33pm
Step into sacred space and journey with us through the spirals of life—honouring the ever-turning cycles of growth, release, and renewal. In this heart-opening cacao ceremony, we’ll call in the directions, the elements, and the spirit of Mama Cacao to guide us inward and reconnect us with the wisdom of the Earth and the rhythm of our hearts.
Held in a safe and nurturing space, the ceremony includes:
Sacred cacao drinking ritual to open the heart and deepen your inner connection
Breathwork to clear energetic blockages and awaken your life force
Gentle, flowing yoga to connect with your body and breath
Gratitude and intention setting inspired by shamanic teachings of life’s sacred spirals
Sacred sound healing with 432Hz crystal bowls to soothe the nervous system, realign your energetic field, and anchor you in deep presence. Spirit drum to awaken your inner fire and chimes to invite play.
At the heart of this experience is organic ceremonial-grade cacao from Peru. A powerful superfood revered by ancient cultures for its ability to uplift, nourish, and heal.
Mama Cacao is a gentle yet powerful plant medicine known to: Open the heart and deepen emotional connection
Increase clarity, focus, and creativity
Support nervous system regulation and mood balance
Enhance feelings of joy and inner peace
Create space for insight, release, and transformation
Cacao contains: Theobromine, a gentle cardiovascular stimulant that increases circulation and energy
Anandamide, the “bliss molecule” that promotes feelings of peace and joy
Magnesium and antioxidants, supporting heart health, muscle relaxation, and nervous system balance
Tryptophan, a precursor to serotonin, enhancing mood and emotional regulation
Iron and essential minerals, helping to restore and replenish the body at a deep level
When used in ceremony, cacao becomes more than a superfood—it becomes a sacred bridge between body, mind, and spirit.
Whether you are seeking clarity, release, inspiration, or simply a moment to return to your centre, this ceremony offers a gentle, heart-led journey back to yourself.
