Heart Opening Cacao Ceremony Experience (3-hour Workshop )

In the rhythm of everyday life, our thoughts often lead us away from the quiet wisdom of our bodies and the steady beat of our hearts. This ceremony offers you a gentle pause, a time to be. To be with yourself and to sit in a community with others, allowing space for whatever may arise.

With the support of cacao, we open a doorway into the present. Cacao is a heart medicine, powerful yet tender, guiding us back to connection. For some, this is a chance to return to themselves. For others, it may be the very first step in discovering what it feels like to truly meet oneself. Wherever you are, you are welcome. No previous experience with cacao is required.

Together, we will drink ceremonial cacao and be guided through pranayama (conscious breath work) and meditation. The breath will support the flow of cacao through the body, creating harmony and preparing the ground for a deeper inward journey. The meditation then helps us surrender, listen and centre, resting in the stillness of the heart.

The Benefits & Properties of Ceremonial Cacao

For thousands of years, Theobroma Cacao, “the food of the gods”, has been used in ceremonies across Central and South America. It is more than just chocolate; cacao is a gentle but powerful plant ally that works on the body, mind, and spirit.

On the physical level, cacao ......

• Enhances blood and oxygen flow to the brain and heart, bringing more clarity and vitality.

• Stimulates the production of serotonin, dopamine, and anandamide (“the bliss molecule”), which support feelings of joy, calm, and connection.

• Provides magnesium, iron, antioxidants and minerals that nourish the nervous system, muscles and cardiovascular health

• Acts as a natural, gentle stimulant, energising without the crash of coffee.

• Lowers blood pressure while supporting focus and alertness.

On the emotional and spiritual level, cacao........

• Softens the walls around the heart, inviting openness and emotional release.

• Supports self-reflection, insight, and deep listening to one’s inner voice.

• Brings a sense of grounded presence and relaxation while also awakening creativity.

• Creates a gentle state of heightened awareness, making meditation and connection easier.

• Helps build a bridge between the individual and the collective, fostering a sense of community and shared presence.

• Unlike other stimulants, cacao does not pull us “outwards” but rather turns our awareness inwards, reconnecting us with our centre, our intuition and the wisdom of the heart.

What You Will Need

• Comfortable, layered warm clothing, socks, blankets, and an eye mask (Optional).

• Journal & pen for reflections.

• Water bottle.

Preparation

• Avoid caffeine and alcohol beforehand.

• Eat light on the day; only water or fruit 3–4 hours before the ceremony.

• Hydrate well before and after.

Please note: cacao is not suitable if you take MAOIs/antidepressants, and those with low blood pressure should take care as cacao lowers it.

Cost: £90

This 4 week course is designed to really immerse you in yoga, both on and off the mat. It will guide you through the flowing sequences of vinyasa yoga, show you how to use breath techniques and engage the ‘bandhas’ and will focus on building some upper body and core strength. Poses will be broken down and alignment will be a big focus, but we will also look at nurturing the body during yoga practice and stilling the mind while we move the body.

Week 1:

Mastering alignment in poses. We will go back to basics with integral poses like Downward Facing Dog, Warrior 1, 2 and 3, triangle, cobra and upward facing dog. Vinyasa yoga breathing, including Ujjayi breath and prana (life force energy). I like to begin every yoga class slowing down the breath and we will learn some pranayama breathing techniques. Ujjayi or ‘victorious’ breath’ is key to helping you hold poses and really helps to focus the mind. Central to Vinyasa yoga is flowing movement to breath and we will master the sun salutation flow sequence aligned with the breath.

The bandhas (Sanskrit word for ‘lock’). We will learn about the bandhas (we have 3 in the body - root, abdominal and throat). They are muscular contractions in yoga, used to control and channel prana throughout the body. We will learn how to ‘engage them’ during our yoga practice to help move energy inward, support the spine and build heat.

Using yoga props to assist in our practice: we will explore the use of blocks, straps and bolsters to support and go deeper into poses.

Week 2:

Strength-building sequences: We will look at the plank pose, which forms part of the Sun Salutation sequence, and work on building some upper-body strength and using our abdominal muscles to hold stronger poses. We will look at some drills for mastering

Chaturanga (low plank pose)

Sun Sun Salutations: we will explore the classical sequence of poses that combine together to create the Sun Salutations - Surya Namaskar in Sanskrit, and explore the meaning and tradition behind them.

Safe transitions: In order to sequence yoga flows together, we have to be able to move safely between the poses. This includes feet and hip positioning

Week 3:

Find your balance: We will explore balancing poses and how we can use our bodies more effectively to balance. We will also focus on core stability strength and work on some basic core strengthening exercises in order to help refine balance poses.

An introduction to the history and philosophy of yoga: including the yoga Sutras of Patanjali, and the 8 limbs of yoga. This will be a chance to learn a little more about how yoga has evolved and where the yoga we practise today originated.

Level up your Sun Salutations: we will put everything we have learnt into practice and‘find our flow’ but learn how to flow mindfully through the Sun Salutation sequences.

Week 4:

Consistency in your yoga practice: we will explore how we can incorporate yoga into our day to day life, even if we only have 10 minutes spare.

The Chakra system and prana in the body: we will explore the Chakras (Sanskrit word for …. And link them to different yoga poses. We will also explore how they are linked to ‘prana’, life force energy within us, and how we can use this prana effectively in our yoga practice.

Guided Meditation and relaxation: we will end with a Chakra themed guided meditation, refreshments, time for journaling or reflection and a chance to ask any further questions.
