Description

Let’s commune with cacao for creativity, soothing our limiting beliefs, and meeting the muse within to ignite our sacred fire! Join us in circle with heart-opening drinking chocolate and a rare chance to try fresh cacao from Ecuador. Cacao beans fresh from the pod have a loving vibration for releasing dense energies and illuminating the sacred fire within. The cacao spirit will be our nurturing support as she helps us navigate our inner landscape for inspiration. We are all creative creatures with the spark of creative fire within our souls, just waiting to be sought out and remembered. But the busy-ness of daily life and our limiting beliefs can prevent us from connecting with our creative source, which can mean the difference between simply surviving or thriving with creative purpose. • How do we release the hold of our limiting beliefs? • How do we access our creative energy? Sometimes we have blocks that prevent us from accepting our talents and accomplishments. Cacao will help us lovingly soothe our limiting beliefs, so we may release them in ritual. Yessia Muse will guide us into sourcing our essence and forming our creative mission in life, by communing with the void within, the source from where all creativity flows. Teresa Ulrich will guide a drum journey to meet Ixchel, the Mayan Moon Goddess, the weaver of energy from out of the void and into the web of creation. Intuitively transforming our inner stories into simple steps towards creative action. She will carry our curiosities into the void to remember where our spark of passion lives. We must grow into alignment to source what we were called on this earth to do. When we have our creative mission statement clear within ourselves, synchronicities in life start to reveal themselves. It’s time to express creativity, time to stoke the fire, time to let your creativity flow! • Enjoy fresh cacao straight from the pod. • Sip on Peruvian cacao, with blissful heart-opening compounds, from Chi Chocolate. • Release limiting beliefs through compassionate ritual. • Guided meditation to receive creative guidance and creative mission – with Yessia Muse. • Drum journey to meet Ixchel, the Mayan Moon Goddess, for creative guidance – with Teresa Ulrich. • Take home a serving of cacao & cacao husk tea to continue your relationship with cacao at home.

She has worked professionally with chocolate for 10 yrs., including work on a cacao farm in Fiji., where cacao trees and farmers have been her great teachers. She makes her ceremonial cacao from scratch, selecting cacao beans that contain higher euphoric compounds than others for an extra blissful experience.
