Sometimes we just need to wind down, let go, restore, reset ourself… and yoga is a beautiful answer to your needs, even better if it’s coupled with delicious cacao. "Me,Yoga & Cacao escape" is a time for nourishment, in a safe, calming, recharging space. What to expect? Raw Cacao is a powerful plant medicine that has been used ceremonially for thousands of years across Central and South America. Cacao is unlike other plant medicines in that it doesn’t take you on a journey, but gently supports you in wherever you are at. Cacao is a more subtle energy that works with you based on what is happening inside. Raw cacao is considered a heart opener due to certain active ingredients and people generally describe cacao as a heart-centered energy because it significantly increases blood flow and generates an expansive feeling, often centered around the heart. In combination with the allowing practice of Yoga we will use yoga poses to realiese of tensions in the body. Yoga poses apply moderate stress to the connective tissues of the body; the tendons, fascia, and ligaments with the aim of increasing circulation in the joints and improving flexibility. A meditative approach of yoga aims to cultivate awareness of inner silence. We will start with gentle warm up yoga movement, then drinking ceremonial raw Cacao and learn more about the cacao plant and its medicinal proprieties. Followed by meditation and heart opening yoga practice. We will end the workshop with a grounding relaxation. Who can attend this workshop? Anyone, no experience in yoga or meditation required. What you will need? – Your favourite mug - Water - Own Yoga mat (if you have) and a wee blanket – Mats, blocks will be provided if you don't have your own Nothing like yoga, cacao and community to help you let go ♥ Cancellation Policy: We do not offer refunds on workshops.

discover all the interesting facts about the cacao ceremony and spiritual benefits of cacao.
Cacao takes root from South and Central America where the ancient Mayan civilization occupied the Western land of the Andes Mountains. The aroma and magical benefits of the cacao trees captured the attention of the Mayan tribe. The ancient Mayans of Belize treated cacao as the “Food of the God” under the name “Theobroma cacao”. “Theo” stands for “food” and “Broma” stands for “God”.
Thanks to the wide availability and the brilliant benefits that cacao impacts on the human soul and body, the ancient native American dwellers started consuming its fresh fleshy fruits. They turned it into a drink in their spiritual and medicinal ceremonies to awaken one’s inner self and creativity.
The Spanish discovered the magical benefits and incredible taste of the native cacao crop during their colonials in this part of America. From then, they started innovating the use of cacao by adding sugar and spices to balance its genuine bitterness. And chocolate has been created ever since! Nowadays, the use of cacao is spread across the planet. It’s available with plenty of chocolate-based delicacies such as milk, bars, chips and many more.
Cacao vs. Cocoa: What’s the Difference?When it comes to cacao ceremonies, cacao and cocoa are often mistaken. Both cacao and cocoa come from the same source: the cacao fruit that produces pods filled with beans. The differences between cacao and cocoa lie in the processing. Cacao beans are first collected and processed into powder or other forms such as nibs, chips and chocolate bars. Beans are roasted at different temperature levels. If the beans are processed and heated at a higher level, the powder made out of it will be called cocoa. Cocoa powder has less content of fiber and nutrients compared to cacao powder, which is processed under lower temperatures.
Cacao is a pure form whose nutrients are still maintained during the processing procedure. That is the reason why cacao is chosen to be the ingredients for cacao drink in ceremonies. Despite the heating, cocoa is still a great choice with a good amount of antioxidants and healthy for your heart, skin and blood pressure.

Mayan and Aztec have been organizing cacao ceremonies for a hundred years. Nowadays, conscious communities gain knowledge about this spiritual ritual and conduct cacao ceremonies around the world. The ceremony compliments the potential of cacao as a gateway to explore and touch the depth of our soul. Embracing such profoundness in your soul is a guide to create a finer healing ability and remembrance. In a cacao ceremony, practitioners sit in a circle, drink cacao and learn about the healing ability as well as its capability of connecting and inspiring. In a safe space, they pray and sing altogether to a soul-healing background instrumental. There will be also dancing which brings a vibrant atmosphere for everyone within the group. Everyone is all connected. A cacao ceremony may vary, depending on the host or the facilitator, yet these core values and rituals remain the same.
