Welcome to this deep connection and heart opening cacao ceremony with me.
My name is Laura from Holy Cacao and together today we are going to welcome this sacred cacao medicine into our bodies and open our hearts and deeply connect within ourselves.
So begin by finding yourself in a comfortable seated position and taking your cup of cacao and holding it in your hands.
Feeling its warmth and presence and as we prepare to connect deeply with the spirit of cacao take a few deep breaths to center yourself.
Letting go of any distractions with every exhale and bringing in a sense of calm relaxation as you inhale.
Holding your cup of ceremonial cacao with reverence over your heart space and with each breath begin to bring focus towards an intention for your ceremony.
Taking a moment to set your intention or your sankalpa,
A deep resolve for your practice.
Perhaps you seek to open your heart,
Gain clarity on something or simply connect more deeply with yourself or with the spirit of cacao.
Whatever your intention or your sankalpa,
Let the spirit of cacao guide your practice.
And taking a breath in through your nose,
Blowing your intention or your sankalpa into your cup,
Releasing the attachment and expectations.
And letting cacao guide you with that intention today as you invite the cacao's nurturing energy into your being.
And taking another deep breath in through your nose,
Taking in that rich chocolatey aroma of the cacao.
And we can invite any other angels or ancestors,
Spirit guides,
Light beings,
Guardian angels to be with us right now to guide you on this journey today as we connect deeply with cacao.
And gently bringing your cup of cacao to your lips,
Taking your first sip.
And as you do,
We call upon the spirit of cacao.
Ancient and wise spirit of cacao,
I invite you into this space and into my heart as I sip this sacred plant medicine.
May your essence flow through me,
Guiding me to connect deeply with your nurturing energy.
Feeling the warmth of cacao as it enters your body.
Noticing any sensations in your mouth as you hold the cacao in there,
Allowing it to dissolve any barriers,
Both physical and emotional.
With each sip of this plant medicine,
This healing,
Of this plant medicine,
This healing elixir.
Imagine the cacao spirit intertwining with your own energy,
Enhancing your connection and inviting her wisdom into your heart.
Continuing to sip on your cacao as you feel her nurturing presence.
Slowly and graciously intertwining with your own.
And as you continue to sip,
Bring your awareness to your heart space.
Imagining it expanding with every breath.
Slowly opening to the presence of cacao.
And great spirit of cacao,
I honor you and your wisdom.
Help me to embody your nurturing presence,
To open my heart more and more with every moment opening my heart.
May I receive your guidance and embrace the fullness of my being with your medicine.
And visualize your heart like a flower,
Like a rose,
Gradually unfolding petal by petal.
Allowing this process to be gentle and natural.
Feeling the cacao's energy helping you release any resistance.
Continuing to sip on your cacao,
Feeling her nurturing energy as together with your own beautiful energy,
Your heart continues to open and soften.
Continues to open and soften.
Feeling the loving energy emanating throughout your entire being.
Feeling your love radiating outward,
Growing stronger and stronger with every sip of your cacao.
And as you continue to feel the expansion of your heart,
Allow yourself to receive the unique wisdom that cacao offers.
Spirit of cacao,
I welcome your insights and teachings.
As I connect more deeply with you,
Reveal to me the guidance and understanding that you wish to share.
Help me to integrate your wisdom into my being,
Aligning my actions and intentions with your nurturing energy.
Notice any sensations,
Thoughts or feelings that arise for you here.
Trusting that cacao is communicating with you in subtle ways.
As you continue to sip,
Maybe there are gentle insights,
A comforting sensation or an emotional release.
Embrace these experiences as gifts from the spirit of cacao.
Imagine this wisdom flowing through you,
Infusing every cell with a sense of clarity and purpose.
Feel it anchoring into your heart,
Preparing you for a more profound embodiment of cacao's presence.
Placing your cup down,
Close your eyes for a moment from the world of seeing,
From the world of looking,
Opening your inner vision.
Feel the cacao's energy fully integrating within you.
Allow yourself to fully embody the wisdom and presence of cacao.
As I sit in this sacred space,
I embrace the wisdom of cacao.
I open my heart to you,
Letting her love and guidance flow through me,
Transforming and healing.
Feel your heart expanding here,
Becoming more open and receptive.
Let the essence of cacao's presence flow through you.
Feel your heart expanding here,
Becoming more open and receptive.
Let the essence of cacao guide you to a deeper understanding of yourself and your path.
And taking your final few sips of cacao,
Really embracing every last little bit,
Nourishing taste,
Delicate sensations,
The textures,
The warmth as she flows into your being.
Breathing fully,
And taking a few deep breaths in through your nose,
Holding for a moment.
Feeling the connection you've established with the spirit of cacao,
And exhale fully.
Again,
Deep breath in through the nose,
Holding for a moment,
Acknowledging the connection that you've established with yourself and with this beautiful plant medicine.
And as you exhale,
Letting it out with a big sigh.
Thank you,
Spirit of cacao,
For your presence,
Your wisdom,
And your nurturing energy today.
May I carry this connection with me as I continue my journey,
Embodying the openness and love you have gifted me,
Continuing to open my heart,
Continuing to feel into my heart space,
Radiating the love,
Compassion,
And connection,
Letting it flow out to the world and to all of those around me.
I'm taking a moment now to place both of your hands over your heart space.
My hope for you today is that you can carry this sense of connection and heart openness with you as you go about your day,
And may the love and insight from this sacred experience continue to guide you.
May your heart remain open and receptive to the wisdom of cacao and the universe.
With gratitude and grace,
May you step forward today embracing the path illuminated by your light.
Be gentle on yourself today.
Have a wonderful evening.
Rest of your day.
Namaste.
