Welcome.
The purpose of this meditation is to allow you to take some time and some space to connect with your heart,
To connect with the cacao and to just take some time to be.
So taking a seat and perhaps you've already drunk your cacao or perhaps you're sitting with it now,
Bringing it to your lips and taking those sips.
Either way,
Just bringing your hand to your heart,
A reminder of your own presence,
Your own touch and just feeling your own heartbeat.
And as you do this,
Closing the eyes,
Which allows you to bring more awareness to your inner world.
Start noticing your breath,
Whether it's slowing down as you bring your attention and your energy within.
And whether you are seated or laying down,
Just feeling your connection to the earth,
To the ground,
To Pachamama,
To the mother earth beneath you.
Feeling her strength,
Feeling her holding you,
Supporting you in each and every moment,
In each and every breath,
In each and every heartbeat.
And allowing that strength and support to rise up all the way into your heart.
And so on the one hand supported by mother earth,
Truly embodied and grounded in this realm.
Can you now invite the light?
Imagining perhaps a white light coming from way above.
And picturing this light,
This love,
This energy pouring down,
Making its way through your crown and working its way down to your heart space as well.
And it is endless.
Pouring from the heart of the sky right into your own heart.
And breathing into that space,
The human heart,
Where these two energies meet.
Grounded in the earth and yet open to the stars.
And this beautiful,
Sacred gift,
The cacao,
Things are remembering.
Reminding us of all that we are.
And the immense and beautiful capacity of the human heart.
Knowing that each time we sit with ourselves,
With or without cacao,
That we will meet something different.
And that there is no right or wrong in what we find.
Our path is just to keep breathing through it.
And where possible,
Centering ourselves in love.
So breathing in and through whatever may or may not have been called to the surface in this moment.
And in this moment,
What is your heart seeking?
It may be compassion.
It may be rest.
You may find gratitude or perhaps a need for release.
And in this moment,
What is your heart seeking?
Whatever you find or do not find,
Trusting that it is exactly what you need.
And thanking yourself,
Your heart,
Your higher self,
For sharing this with you.
Allowing yourself to take three breaths that are just for you.
Drawing the air into your heart space.
In your time.
In your way.
Drawing the air into your heart space.
In your way.
And letting the wisdom that is in you,
That resides in your heart,
In your breath,
At all times,
Guide you now to what you need.
Thanking Mother Earth.
Thanking Father Sky.
Thanking the medicine of cacao.
You may wish to remain seated or lying down and exploring and allowing whatever wishes to flow with you.
You may feel called to journal.
To dance.
To cry.
Again,
Trusting that in this dropped in space,
You can follow what you need.
Thanking Mother Earth.
Thanking Father Sky.
