Samedi 19/09 - Cérémonie Cacao - Ayelle Waterhouse - CocoSwingBallroom

A cacao ceremony to begin the weekend with an open heart. As places are limited, if you are unable to attend, please let us know by email at [email protected] . *These ceremonies are powerful initiations that act according to the intention behind your registration, which is therefore non-refundable. However, you may transfer your place to someone of your choice by notifying us. "Grandmother Cacao" has been used for millennia as food and medicine by many South American cultures, as well as a sacred and ritual plant, particularly among the Maya people. It reconnects the heart with the magic around us and provides clarity, focus and inner warmth. It is called "Food of Change" or "The Clairvoyant." During this danced ceremony, we will drink ceremonial cacao from Guatemala, produced through fair trade, with each bean specially selected for this occasion. We will use shamanic journeying, the power of intention, song and dance to embody this spirit and allow it to teach us its heart-opening medicine. People with medical histories, heart problems or taking conventional medication (antidepressants, etc.) are welcome to join us; however, to take care of yourselves, you should drink only one or two sips of cacao, or none at all, as it is not necessary to ingest cacao to receive its benefits in this circle. If you would like to learn more about this Spirit Plant, feel free to Google "Ceremonial cacao," or visit Keith, the Cacao Shaman's website. It is very important to reserve your place before the ceremony, as Brunehilde prepares the cacao according to the number of people attending and the number of places is limited to 30. In Practice • Doors open at 13:45 and close at 14:00 (so that the volunteers can be in the opening circle). • Remember to bring comfortable clothing and a water bottle. • As places are limited, if you are unable to attend, please let us know by email at [email protected]. *These ceremonies are powerful initiations that act according to the intention behind your registration, which is therefore non-refundable.
