Welcome to this sacred ceremony.
Thank you for being here today.
Cacao is much more than the sweet treat the chocolate industry has made us believe.
In its purest form,
It is an ancient and potent plant medicine which deserves to be treated with respect and reverence.
Ceremonial cacao allows us to open our heart space to connect with ourselves on a deep level for healing and intuition.
Together we will hold space for each other and allow cacao to amplify our spiritual connections through our hearts,
Our intentions and our energies.
I will open our ceremony with a blessing.
Please make yourself comfortable,
Close your eyes and settle into a calm breathing rhythm.
Allow this prayer to wash over this space.
Thank you,
Mamma Cacao,
For your divine gift we are about to receive.
Thank you to the farmers of this sacred plant medicine.
Thank you to the ancestors of the traditional lands.
Thank you to the elements that make our lives possible.
The earth that grounds us.
The air that breathes nourishing life into us.
The water that cleanses us.
The fire that ignites us and our spirit that serves our highest good.
I invite you now to hold your cacao in cupped hands and place it in front of your heart,
Perhaps even directly against your chest.
Breathe in the beautiful aroma,
Allowing your senses to be immersed in the magic of this medicine.
With this cup of cacao we take time to pause,
Gather our thoughts and still our minds.
We connect with the wisdom of our hearts to take stock of our lives and look at the gifts it's presented us,
Even if they came in unwanted ways.
We are ready to acknowledge our lessons and reclaim our power.
To write our life story free from limiting beliefs.
It is time now to set your intention for this ceremony.
Take a few slow long deep breaths.
Look deep inside and ask yourself,
What brought you to this moment?
What is it that I would like cacao to bring me today?
In what area of my life would I like to receive?
Perhaps your intentions could be to let go of something to allow space for something else.
Or being open to receive clarity on a question or a connection with spirit or to explore your creativity.
Sit with your cacao and explore your intentions for being here.
Once you are clear on your intention,
I invite you to breathe in the aroma of cacao and exhale your intention directly into your cup.
Do this for a few moments to allow your intention to find space with you and your cacao.
Breathe in your cacao and breathe out your intention,
Sending it with love back into your cup.
As you start to sip your cacao,
Remain open to receiving its gifts.
Focus on your intention and give thanks for each slow,
Deliberate sip as cacao enters your heart space.
Take your time.
Cacao is here to serve your highest self.
Sip slowly and feel the power of the medicine enter your body.
Cacao is here to serve your highest self.
Sip slowly and feel the power of the medicine enter your body.
Cacao is here to serve your highest self.
Cacao is here to serve your highest self.
Cacao is here to serve your highest self.
Cacao is here to serve your highest self.
Cacao is here to serve your highest self.
Cacao is here to serve your highest self.
Cacao is here to serve your highest self.
Once you have finished your cacao,
Or simply have had enough,
Put the cup down and place both your hands over your heart.
Now,
Without judgement,
Notice how you truly feel deep in your heart space.
What external forces are you currently battling?
Just sense it,
Acknowledge it without judgement,
And ask yourself,
Is this feeling in my highest good?
Breathe into your heart with love and trust,
Let go of the ego brain,
Fear has no place here today.
With each breath,
Feel or sense your heart space expanding,
Growing and pulsing with pure love from the universe.
Now imagine a beautiful emerald green glow surrounding your heart space.
In your mind's eye,
Place your cacao intention inside that glow.
Feel your hands holding it in place while it takes root in your soul.
Continue to breathe in this blessing and say to yourself,
I choose to be kind to myself.
I love myself unconditionally.
My heart is open,
Loving and pure.
I am worthy.
I am love.
Continue to sit with yourself for as long as you need.
We are all here to hold space together and when you are ready,
You can return to the present.
Thank you for watching!
