The cacao ceremony is a spiritual practice that has been part of indigenous traditions for centuries. It is a sacred ritual, utilizing cacao, a plant known for its heart opening and healing properties, to facilitate a deep connection with one's self and the Divine.
Modern ceremonies draw inspiration from the ancient traditions of using cacao in important milestones such as weddings, funerals, and offerings to the ancestors. Cacao itself also has many health benefits, when consumed on a regular basis, it is beneficial to cardiovascular health, gut and brain health, and memory retention. It is rich in natural compounds which support mood, emotional openness, and gentle energetic stimulation. Energetically, cacao is linked to the Heart Chakra or the energetic center of love, compassion, forgiveness, and emotional truth. When working with cacao, you may experience a sense of emotional softening, greater capacity to give and receive love, and release of grief or emotional tension. Cacao is a gentle plant teacher, one who supports us as we navigate our own inner healing.
It is also important to honor cacao as sacred plant medicine by using a high-quality, high-vibrational product, as the purity, sourcing, and energetic integrity of the cacao directly affect the ceremonial experience. We intentionally choose Cacao Bliss for our ceremonies because of its high vibrational quality, conscious sourcing, and alignment with heart-centered healing work.
Cacao ceremonies are helpful for obtaining clarity, alignment, setting intentions, doing healing work, and inner-processing. Being in a sacred space with community helps you release your thoughts and go within, allowing you to experience new insights and perspectives. Sharing cacao together brings us into the same energetic frequency allowing us to obtain a deeper, more intimate connection with ourselves and to one another. A combination of breathwork, meditation, sound healing, and intention setting is used to create a sacred space for the cacao. Intention remains a core part of the ceremony, helping direct the emotional and energetic experience.
