About the event

Ceremony is about connecting to the highest self and the Divine. Ceremony is a chance to remember the sacredness in all things, and this increases feelings of gratitude. Everyday is a ceremony. Ceremony with community is a circle of energy that creates intimacy, encourages presence and offers an opportunity to hold oneself with focus and open-hearted awareness with others. Intentions and dreams can be super amplified in ceremony. When we state our intention, we direct focused energy. Our intentions feed those around us, uplifting the entire group, and from this building energy, intentions grow in power.   

Cacao ceremonies are centuries-old rituals, seen as the ultimate heart-opener. Cacao is not only revered for its spiritual and energetic properties but also for the numerous physical benefits it offers. Rich in unique components, essential nutrients, and powerful antioxidants, Cacao can have a positive impact on our overall health and well-being. It brings you out of the head and into the body. 

Knowing how Cacao works with the body brings us closer to the medicine. The cacao medicine has stimulating effects, where the heart pumps faster, and the blood moves quicker. This is because it is vasodilator.. It brings feelings of euphoria and openness by increasing the production anandamine, the bliss molecule, dopamine (motivated, accomplished, and productive), serotonin (happier, calmer, and more focused), and phenylethylamine, the love molecule, of which cacao has the highest concentration of than any other food! It is truly a powerful feel-good, heart-opening medicine that carries the spirit of love.
