Welcome in to this magical space.
Find a seat,
Choose the cushion or whatever space allows you to be comfortable,
At ease.
Know that you can be 5 or 10% more comfortable,
So please adjust your body.
Take into your hand a mug filled with cacao,
Bringing it up to your nose,
Slow breath in,
Infusing your body with wonderful,
Nourishing notes of nature.
Bring in an image of the farmers that are nourishing the cacao beans with water,
Allowing for the beautiful sun to bake them,
Allowing them to ripen,
Knowing what you're holding started in nature and with nurturing.
Take a nice slow breath in again,
Breathing in and being grateful for this moment,
Grateful for the calming deliciousness going into your nostrils,
A small sip of your cacao,
Don't swallow right away,
This moment to last a long time.
After you have swallowed,
Notice the after effects,
Notice how your body is feeling,
Setting the cup down,
Putting your hand over your heart,
Your hand over your belly,
Take a slow breath in,
Inviting in gratitude,
Joy for this moment,
Allowing your shoulders to soften,
Having a nice pause before you start or stop your day,
Allow moments of self-care to bathe and nourish your body,
Saying a prayer of gratitude for cacao,
The Mayan tradition that allows us to embrace miracles.
Thank you so deeply for joining me in this moment.
