Cacao ceremonies are useful for gaining clarity, setting intentions, and doing internal healing and processing work. Being in a sacred space helps you step out of your normal state of mind, allowing you to experience new insights and perspectives. Depending on the intention of the ceremony, they can also be wonderful places to connect with people in a safe, open-hearted environment. Sharing cocoa takes us to the same energetic frequency. This often results in a deeper, more intimate connection with ourselves and others.
