A sacred evening of devotion, remembrance, and healing through cacao, drum, voice, sound healing and soul medicine
Description: 
 
Step into a living prayer. 
Mystic Heart is a ceremonial immersion designed to open the gateways of the heart, awaken the wisdom of the soul, and reconnect you with the sacred rhythm of life.
Through the alchemy of ceremonial cacao, shamanic drumming, guided journeying, and medicine music, we gather to honour the ancient, the mystical, and the deeply human.
This is not just a workshop—it is a ceremony of ´Soul Return´.
An invitation to soften, to surrender, and to listen.
 
 
The Medicine of Cacao: Heart of the Earth, Spirit of the Goddess
 
Cacao has long been revered as a sacred plant spirit and heart medicine by the Indigenous peoples of Mesoamerica.
 
In the cosmology of the Maya, cacao is embodied by the goddess Ixcacao—a benevolent, loving earth goddess who offers the gifts of abundance, nourishment, and emotional clarity.
 
She is the feminine spirit of the cacao plant: the keeper of joy, compassion, and sensual wisdom.
Unlike mind-altering plants, cacao works gently—yet powerfully—opening the emotional and energetic heart, enhancing our connection to ourselves, each other, and the unseen world.
 
Rich in theobromine (“food of the gods”), magnesium, and antioxidants, cacao increases blood flow and awakens the heart field. But beyond the physical, cacao is a teacher. She teaches us how to sit with ourselves, how to listen, how to heal without force, and how to return to love.
 
In this ceremony, you will be served ethically sourced ceremonial cacao, offered in sacred prayer.
Through guided breathwork, shamanic journey work, sacred ceremonial music, and connection with the plant spirit, you will be invited to enter a state of expanded awareness and gentle clarity.
