Pure cacao is used as a heart opening medicine for people to safely experience awakening, revelation and inner healing. In Shamanism, Cacao Ceremonies have been around for thousands of years, originating all the way back to Mayan and Aztec traditions in Central and South America, used for spiritual, medicinal and ceremonial purposes for inner awakening and creative guidance. Cacao is used in a sacred medicinal ritual, where intentions are set and once consumed, meditative states are unlocked, negative emotions are released and we are able to connect to ourselves and the loving energy in our body. The word cacao actually came from the Maya word Ka’kau, and the Maya word Chokola’j—which means to drink chocolate together. Cacao Ceremonies are a facilitator of self-reflection and spiritual awakening, allowing one to consider who you are, During this Retreat you will have 1 Cacao Ceremony and Yoga, Meditation and Pranayama classes to choose every day. So you can attend some classes and relax to integrate your experience.

The Shamanic Way/ It is based on Traditional practices of an ancient wisdom to navigate our" Inner Journey" through an expanded state of consciousness to reach an alternate reality and brings back understanding that helps us to deal with life.
This has been done from time in antiquity, using various methods to expand awareness and alter consciousness, from darkness, silence, fasting, diets, dance, sounds, and drum journeys to sacred plants, breathwork, yoga and meditations.
