Have you ever felt the pull to connect more deeply with yourself, to create a sacred space where you can quiet the noise of the world and listen to the whispers of your soul? A cacao ceremony offers a beautiful pathway for self-discovery, and it's something you can easily create on your own.

What is a Cacao Ceremony?

A cacao ceremony is a beautiful way to connect with your heart, set intentions, and journey inward. It's a time to slow down, breathe deeply, and nourish your soul. While cacao ceremonies are often held in group settings, creating one in your own space allows for a truly personal and intimate experience. 

Creating your personalized ceremony

Here are a few steps to help guide you to create a cacao ceremony at home. Remember there is no right or wrong way of creating, this is unique to you, personalize it, you can never go wrong when your soul leads the way. 

Create Sacred Space

Create a quiet space in your home where you feel comfortable and you will not be disturbed. Dim the lights, light candles, and gather sacred objects that hold meaning for you. Crystals, flowers, or a cozy blanket can all be lovely touches to create the perfect sanctuary. 


Prepare Your Cacao

Choose ceremonial-grade cacao, made with intention and respect for the sacred traditions of this plant medicine. Prepare your cacao with love, setting intentions as you stir and bless your warm drink. If your cacao is in the pure form, you can add spices like cinnamon (abundance), cardamom (clarity), vanilla bean or maple syrup. 

Here is a sample recipe I use:

Blend 3-4 tbsp of ceremonial grade cacao (I use this one) with 8 oz of water

Use a blender safe for hot liquids or a whisk & serve 


Journey Inward

Find a comfortable seated position and begin with a few deep breaths, allowing your body to settle and your mind to quiet. This is your opportunity to create a connection with your inner wisdom (intuition) no agenda is necessary, connect with your intention and let this guide you. You may wish to incorporate gentle music, guided meditation, or journaling to deepen your connection.


Gratitude and Closing

As you complete your ceremony, express gratitude for the wisdom and healing that cacao offers. Blow out the candles if necessary and release the sacred space. Carry this sense of peace and connection with you as you move through your day.


Creating a cacao ceremony at home is a beautiful way to deepen your spiritual practice, connect with your intuition, and nourish your soul. Embrace this sacred ritual and allow the magic of cacao to guide you on your journey of self-discovery and inner peace.
