Radiant Heart Breathwork & Cacao Ceremony

Join Anu as he guides you in a sacred ceremony with two perfect ceremonial companions, breathwork and cacao. As a skilled shamanic practitioner experienced in ministering sacred plant medicine ceremonies, Anu treats this as a similarly sacred practice, giving it wings to support the clearing away of old energies, patterns, thoughts, and emotions, and removing our blocks to expanded perspectives, inner/higher guidance, self love and forgiveness, and personal clarity. As with other plant medicine ceremonies, by engaging in an intentional, respectful, heart-felt practice with cacao, we invoke the benevolent spirit of the cacao plant to assist us through her sacred wisdom and divine intelligence. Cacao can provide ecstatic experiences as well as moments of relaxation, and can help to release inner blockages, opening our hearts and clearing pathways to personal harmony and peace. We’ll be joined by the wonderful Brian Armstrong, who will be assisting during the ceremony and playing sound healing instruments to enhance our experience with frequency and harmonics.

How to Prepare:

Anu suggests you prepare yourself by coming to this sacred ceremony with an open mind and heart, as well as with strong and clear intentions for what you would like to receive or get out of your experience. Ideally, don't arrive with a full stomach; leave at least two hours between your last meal and our ceremony.

What to Bring:

Wear loose, comfortable clothing. And, highly recommended: bring a comfortable, cushioned, single-size pad such as foam or blow-up camping pad. A yoga mat (or a few yoga mats stacked on top of each other) will do, but you’ll be lying on your back for the session, and having a comfortable pad to keep the floor from interfering with your process can make a difference. Also recommended: bring a bottle of water and an item of personal meaning to place on our ceremony altar.

Health Notifications for Cacao and Breathwork:

Cacao is a high-quality, raw, and unprocessed chocolate sacramental drink used for spiritual purposes around the world, with origins in South America. Cacao is not recommended for people who are on above-average doses of SSRI antidepressants. Cacao increases blood flow to the brain and is a source of tryptophan, the precursor to serotonin; these can improve mental focus, mood, and your feeling of well-being. Breathwork is a powerful practice that creates subtle, temporary changes in our brain chemistry, enabling us to step into altered states of expanded awareness. If you have any history (current or past) of cardiovascular issues, mental/emotional health challenges, physical limitations, epilepsy, recent surgery, or other mental or physical health challenges, you may want to check with your doctor before embarking on a journey with cacao and/or breathwork. If you are experiencing mental or physical health challenges or are taking an antidepressant, please be responsible for your own integrity and well-being, and please inform Anu of your condition before any cacao or breathwork ceremony (you can email [email protected]).
