Who Is This Immersion For?

This immersive experience is for anyone who has a curiosity, a keen interest, or a deep calling to work with this beautiful plant medicine.

No prior training or knowledge required - this immersion provides you with deeper foundation to build your personal spiritual practice upon.

Or if you are already a practitioner, this immersion will complement your existing modalities through a deeper understanding of ceremony and ritual through the beautiful vehicle of Mama Cacao.

To deepen your relationship with Mama Cacao, you are invited to work with her in a 30 day dieta.

Disclaimer:

Whilst we cover a lot of content and practice during this 2 day immersion, this is not to be intended as complete training for holding group ceremonies. Learning the art of group facilitation takes time and practice, and should also include trauma-informed training, as well as knowledge and practice on creating energetically protected and safe spaces.

It is also important to note, the medicine and spirit of Cacao has been honoured and revered in shamanic cultures for centuries, and this wisdom and experience cannot be condensed into a 2 day immersion. It is my intention to share my passion and experience with respect and reverence, however, I am still a student in this space, and commit my time, energy and money to deepen my knowledge through apprenticeships and pilgrimages with authentic Peruvian Maestros.

If you would like to go deeper in this space, I have some further information below.
