Welcome.
My name is Audrey from Love Bean Cacao and the purpose of this recording and meditation is to invite you into a connection with the cacao medicine in your own space,
In your own time.
So in a comfortable seat with your cacao in front of you,
I invite you to bring your hands either side of your cup connecting the palms to the earth and taking a breath and noticing feeling where you are perhaps just acknowledging the spirits of this land that you sit upon,
The native people and their ancestors who came before and loved this land and feeling that love coming from you as well as to you from the land quietly thanking the mother earth for your home,
For your life and for the medicine of cacao.
And as you breathe that in taking your cup in your hands and raising it so that it is just above your heart in reverence to this medicine and taking a deep,
Deep breath and feeling your connection to the great spirit,
To the cosmos,
To the universe all around you,
Feeling where the air touches your skin,
Where you meet with the mystery and thanking this mystery for your breath,
The breath that connects you to the natural cycle of this life as you breathe in knowing that you are receiving and as you breathe out knowing that you are giving and so on and so on.
Now bringing that cup to your heart's face and here taking a moment to invite your heart to be present,
To invite in your higher self and your inner child and acknowledge your place,
Sending any wishes into your cup before you bring it to your lips and take that first sip.
And drinking fast or slow,
Being present to the medicine,
To yourself,
To your heart and honouring the time that you are taking to be with yourself.
And acknowledging and honouring the medicine of cacao for all that it brings to us.
Deep healing,
A deeper connection to self,
To spirit.
And a constant reminder to return to the heart.
And in this moment,
Dropping into that space,
Into the heart space,
With an open compassion and curiosity.
Already allowing whatever may wish to arise to do so.
For each day,
Each moment,
Each breath may find a different sensation,
Feeling or experience in the heart.
And as we breathe with these experiences,
The medicine of the cacao is here to teach us to flow.
So taking the time now,
Taking the space to be in stillness,
Perhaps in silence and in softness with yourself,
With your heart.
And giving yourself some time to allow whatever wishes to flow.
To give yourself some time to allow whatever wishes to flow.
