Cacao + Sound Experience: Breathing in a new mindset and creating heart centered intentions in community. 

Sitting together, initiating new ideas, inspiring one another with supportive conversations, connecting through the medicine of cacao and integrating the experience with sound healing vibrations to restore and nourish the heart, body mind and spirit. 

Guided by Healing Artist Beth Ricciardone.  

Beth is a dedicated student of the sacred medicine of cacao, studying under Nana Marina Cruz, an honored Ajq’ij (spiritual guide) of the Tz’utujil People of Guatemaya. She has received her teacher’s guidance, permission, and blessing to serve and share the medicine of cacao.

LEARN MORE:

Cacao is a healing medicine that not only provides health benefits, both uplifting and relaxing but teaches us to find forgiveness in ourselves and others, dissolves stagnant energies and shows new paths, and instills trust to help us move forward in our lives.

Cacao (the main ingredient found in chocolate) is a deeply sacred plant that has been vital to humanity for thousands of years. Originally known throughout Amerikua, Cacao has spread around the world because of its tremendous physical, mental, emotional and spiritual benefits.

Beth sources her ceremonial cacao directly from the community that she studies with in Guatemala, who are the guardians of the sacred medicine. They prepare it from start to finish in a prayer, in a sacred process that’s been handed down through their ancestral tradition.

A portion of the cacao sales are given back to the community as gratitude.

MOON MEDICINE:

FULL MOON CACAO + SOUND EXPERIENCE

A GUIDED JOURNEY TO NOURISH YOUR SENSES AND BRIGHTEN YOUR SPIRIT

UNDER THE LUMINOUS TAUREAN FULL MOON.

Join us for an evening of comfort and clarity under the Full Moon in Taurus, honoring our bodies' intuitive wisdom. Nurture your emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual well-being with ceremonial cacao and the restorative vibrations of vocalization, toning, tuning forks, crystal instruments, crystal singing bowls, Tibetan singing bowls, various flutes, chimes, and gong. This experience creates an atmosphere that invites inner and outer transformation.

We envision and embody the Taurus moon's sensory-enhancing energy, welcoming in stability and presence while dissolving tension and restoring trust in our soma. The soothing sound vibrations, accompanied by ceremonial cacao, will guide us into a space of equilibrium and rejuvenation—a sacred ritual of sound and cacao.

Gathering around a firelight to share sacred stories, songs and prayers is one of the most ancient practices known to humanity. Together with Cacao, we will sing and dance to deepen our connection with nature and each other.

We will begin by connecting with the sacred heart medicine of ceremonial cacao infused with blue lotus to access our highest portals of intuition. As we expand into a euphoric dream state, we will harness the energies of the new moon in Pisces. This will support us in accessing our inner creative visionary responsible for reimagining our highest calling rooted in freedom and love.

Utilizing the alchemy of crystalline sounds and the healing energy of reiki, we will close by sharing our experience and how we will be activating these ethereal visions into materialized reality. Pisces gives us the sacred blueprint for who are becoming as we surrender to our greatness and take action on birthing our highest selves into this lifetime.
