A powerful way to come together to honour this past year with all its colours.
GIVE THANKS - RELEASE - REBIRTH
A sacred space to give thanks, to acknowledge the challenges, what inspired us, what broke us, what healed us, what needs to go and how we want to move forward.
In order to manifest & sow the seeds of intention for the coming year, we first need to let go and clear the way.
Connect to your heart space, intuition & your highest consciousness thanks to the beautiful gentle yet potent plant medicines of Blue Lotus & Ceremonial Cacao.
These plant allies allow us to go deep within, tap into our inner wisdom & connect with our highest vibrations. So we can release the old and set powerful new intentions for the year ahead, aligned with our authentic self with focus, clarity & from love.
This beautiful evening gives you the space to consciously close out the year and reconnect to source energy so you can release, recalibrate & rebirth for a brand new year.

All welcome. This is a MIXED GENDER gathering. So I welcome all the men to join us!
Held with great reverence by your facilitator Katyayani who is a natural, intuitive sacred space holder and creates a safe container for your journey.
" I had no idea what to expect beforehand & was feeling slightly nervous but was greeted with such warmth & honouring by Katyayani, any concerns I had just dissolved.
From the very start to end, Katyayani, invoked the sacred with full integrity. The space she invited us in to was divine, peaceful, warm & safe. She then guided us gracefully into the beautiful world of the Cacao sharing her incredible knowledge of the healing power of this plant. The ceremony was exquisite & flowed with the essence of open heart sharing.
Katyayani, is clearly a natural facilitator and I have no hesitation in recommending her ceremonies to anyone who desires to feel the sacred, powerful heart medicine of Cacao" - Tina

💙BLUE LOTUS💙
Blue Lotus is a a sacred high vibration flower that embodies the purest consciousness.
Blue lotus is a plant that has been used for thousands of years as a sacred, spiritual flower and a medicinal herb. Like cacao, blue lotus contains specific compounds that give it psychoactive properties. Blue lotus (Nymphaea caerulea) is a type of water lily that is native to Egypt and certain regions in Asia.
To the ancient Egyptians, blue lotus was a sacred plant that had connections to both Ra (the sun god) and Osiris (the god of the underworld). It was also likely a symbol of rebirth, since the petals open with the sun and close at dusk.
Because of this blue lotus was frequently a part of rituals and spiritual ceremonies.

• is a sleep aid that calms the senses & induces a peaceful sleep.

🤎CEREMONIAL CACAO🤎
Cacao is a plant medicine that creates a gentle but powerful & beautiful natural elevation & expansion of heart-centred consciousness.
🌟 WHAT IS CEREMONIAL CACAO? 🌟
Cacao is one of the most ancient and sacred plant medicines there is. She has been used medicinally and ceremonially by shamans and healers for thousands of years to unlock euphoric states, release negative emotions & connect to pure heart energy.
Cacao Aroha - Heart Medicine Journeys serves the highest grade ceremonial organic, Criollo Guatemalan cacao made from exceptional quality cacao beans which are minimally roasted and processed to maintain their natural energetic and health-promoting properties. The cacao trees are traditionally grown in their natural habitat and the beans are traditionally hand-prepared by indigenous Mayan people in the Lake Atitlan region of Guatemala. This cacao is grown and processed without any chemicals and the local women who prepare the cacao receive fair pay for their work.

This sacred plant medicine also known as Food of the Gods assists in a deep yet gentle opening of the heart and mind to transform the physical, mental, emotional and energetic path of our individual spiritual journey. Often used for emotional purging, cacao lovingly supports the release of any fears & inhibitions so we may connect deeper with life and follow our true heart's calling.
"Cacao brings you to the door but doesn't push you through it" Keith - The Chocolate Shaman

🌟 BENEFITS OF CACAO 🌟
🤎 ANTI-OXIDANTS - Raw Cacao beans contain more anti-oxidants than any other food source so are fantastic at slowing down damage by free radicals, supporting cardio-vascular & cognitive health. Also relaxes blood vessels, improves blood flow & lowers blood pressure.
🤎 MAGNESIUM - Cacao is the primary dietary source of magnesium, the most deficient mineral in western civilisation. Magnesium is the most important mineral for a healthy functioning heart as well as for bone health. It also plays a key role in producing energy for the neurons in the brain from glucose and helps prevent type 2 diabetes. An abundance of magnesium creates mental clarity & focus and alleviates constipation, PMS & anxiety.
🤎 MOOD ELEVATORS & ANTI-DEPRESSANTS - Cacao is a great source of serotonin, dopamine, anandamide and phenylethylamine (PEA), four well-studied neurotransmitters, which are associated with feelings of well being and help alleviate depression. Both PEA and anandamide (the bliss chemical) are found in abundance in the brains of happy people and are particularly released when we are feeling happy. Both of these neurotransmitters are present in raw cacao in large enough quantities to affect the brain and lift our moods. Cacao also contains monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOI's) that keep neurotransmitters in the bloodstream for longer without being broken down.
🤎THEOBROMINE - An amazingly gentle stimulant offering a sustained energy release found almost exclusively in cacao. It is a cardio-vascular stimulant (unlike caffeine which is a nervous system stimulant) which lifts the mood and energy for an extended period contributing to mental focus, relaxes smooth muscle tissue such as the heart, dilates blood vessels and is a mild diuretic. Keith's Cacao has a 46:1 ratio of Theobromine to Caffeine.
