Do you have a strong connection to the medicine of cacao? Are you called to create your own cacao ceremonies? Do you feel ready to start holding cacao ceremonies for others? Do you already hold space, teach yoga, lead singing or women's circles, and would like to bring in the magic of cacao? You will learn about the history of cacao, the magic of this heart-opening plant medicine, its benefits, precautions, and more. You will learn how to prepare a ceremony, create a theme and a structure, hold space, and create a powerful setting.
You will learn about which music to use, which cacao suppliers, how to use your own gifts to make your ceremonies unique, and how to start giving ceremonies yourself. Because the world needs you to share your gifts, step up, empower and inspire others, and bring the magic of cacao to as many people as possible, you have been called to this space by the magic of Ixcacao, the goddess of cacao.
If you are here, you are meant to share her magic, help others with her medicine, and shine your light bright into the world. The cacao does not care about where you are from or what you know, it only wants to open hearts and spread love through you. Are you ready to bring the magic of cacao out into the world? Help others find clarity and presence. Support them in opening their hearts?
