Cacao Women’s Circle
December 1 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Join us for a heart-opening women’s cacao circle, designed to deepen our connections with ourselves and each other. In this sacred space, we’ll engage with the plant medicine of cacao, share our experiences, enjoy guided meditation and a sound bath, and express our gratitude and love.
WHAT IS CACAO: Cacao, the purest form of Chocolate, is a beverage made from the bean of Theobroma tree fruit. Also called “Food of the Gods” due to its powerful benefits to the mind and body. Cacao is a true superfood, containing antioxidants and minerals such as iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, fiber, and protein. Cacao’s benefits range from improving cognitive function, enhances performance, boosts mood, and improves cardiovascular health. It is a sister bean of caffeine, so it is a stimulate but does not have the crash like coffee does.
WHAT TO EXPECT: We start with a simple grounding body scan meditation and introductions. As I serve the first cup of cacao, we sit in stillness and reflect on what is happening in our minds and bodies. Our second cup will open us up for a sharing circle to witness relatability and connectedness. There will be interwoven teachings throughout the circle and end with a guided relaxing meditation with singing bowls.
My intention is to create an open container to explore our feelings in a group setting, listen and honor the medicine and spirit of cacao.
TAKE HOME: Simple daily practices, rituals, and new copings tools. You may feel lighter, more at peace with yourself, connected to each other and yourself and have a new perspective about your heart. Also, a handmade nature gift to remind us of all the teachings we learned throughout this experience.
