Sacred Cacao Ceremony

Welcome to the world of chocolate as you've never seen it before.

Please bring your own yoga mat, cushion and blanket!

When we do cacao ceremonies we do them with love! We invite you to join us for a magical evening involving ceremonial raw cacao, meditation, healing and connection. People who attend these ceremonies notice that in the days that follow, blockages in their lives shift, powerful synchronicities occur and even deep healings take place. All with the help of some delicious chocolate!

The space will be held Tim Michell, superfood & nutrition expert and energy healer (and just all-round totally awesome man in every way - this is Ananja writing this and he'd kill me if he saw it haha! :p ) We ensure the space is very high vibrational and so a safe space in which healing and connection can occur. We cleanse the space with sage, frankincense and incense, and we work with the angelic realms to transmute any dense energies that are released.

At a ceremony, we all sit in a circle and drink a lovingly-prepared sacred cacao elixir. This is made using the purest A-grade raw organic rainforest cacao. When we make the elixir we use distilled water that has been charged with crystals under the light of the most recent full or new moon, in this case the new moon on the 26th April. We also use our incredibly powerful John of God crystal. This synchronises us to the deeper patterns and cycles of nature and the Divine.

As the chocolate takes effect, you'll feel your heart chakra gently expand as you’re guided on a healing meditation and journey. When working with the cacao spirit, you can ask her to show you what is unseen, to show you the next steps on your path or simply to come out and play. If you wish to experience a more 'active' journey, we provide mandala colouring books, pens and paper, angel cards and spiritual books. The circle provides a safe and nurturing space for clearing, healing and release work. All you need to do is turn up, relax with the cacao, and surrender! You will leave feeling lighter and more energised.

Cacao is safe to drink in the quantity provided unless:

• You are taking anti-depressants (as the natural chemicals interact with the active component in anti-depressants)

• You have a serious heart condition. This is because cacao increases the blood flow to the brain and the rest of the body by 30-40%

• It is safe to drink when pregnant though we may reduce your dose a little.

If you have any concerns about these please feel free to get in touch with us beforehand.

How to prepare for the Cacao Ceremony:

• Fasting is not necessary, however it’s best not to eat for a couple of hours beforehand (maybe have an early light lunch/brunch)

• Make sure you drink plenty of water in the lead up to, during and after the ceremony

• Avoid drinking caffeine on the day of the ceremony – you may feel jittery from the combination of the caffeine and the cacao, and it is not recommended for the kind of inner journeying work we will be doing

• Dress in loose, comfortable clothing

What to bring

• A large bottle of water. Cacao is a diuretic and it’s important you stay well hydrated

• A cushion and yoga mat so you can make yourself comfortable on the floor

• A blanket/pashmina and jumper to stay warm - when journeying it can get a little chilly!

• Something to cover your eyes with (like a scarf or handkerchief) to block out the light and help you turn your focus within

It’s an honour to hold this space for you. We're looking forward to connecting, and what better way than with gorgeous cacao?!

Love and chocolatey blessings,

Tim xx
