Sunrise Beach Cacao - Mount Maunganui

Cacao + Beach + Sun Gazing + Monday morning intentions + Breathe + Yoga
Let’s begin the week watching the sunrise on the beach, inviting in healing and our intentions through drinking the sacred plant medicine cacao while connecting with other beautiful like-minded souls.

Kirsten would like to invite those that are ready to shift and open their hearts more deeply through sacred rituals and been out in nature. Early mornings are a powerful time to be still, set intentions, consciously breathe and meditate. Watching the sunrise and connecting with sun energy as it rises is one of the most healing rituals we can do for our physical, emotional and energy body

You will be guided through meditation, heart-opening, embodied breathwork and yoga to start your day in a calm, grounded and sacred space

More about Cacao
History - Cacao ceremonies have actually been around for thousands of years, originating all the way back to Mayan and Aztec traditions in Central and South America, used for spiritual, medicinal, and ceremonial purposes for inner awakening and creative guidance. Pure cacao is used as a heart-opening medicine for people to safely experience awakening, revelation, and inner healing.
Cacao is used in a sacred medicinal ritual, where intentions are set, and once consumed, euphoric states are unlocked, negative emotions are released and we are able to connect to ourselves and the loving energy in our body.

What you can experience during a cacao ceremony:
- A heart-opening journey of oneness, love, and ecstasy.
- Healing therapy, releasing blocks, recognizing patterns, following your heart finding a connection to your highest self, your own power, and truth.
- A shamanic or spiritual journey.
- A space to enter into meditation – being able to silence the mind, connect to the wisdom and spirit within you.
- A balance of masculine and feminine energies in the body.
- Enhanced creativity

Raw cacao has been used for centuries to heal the mental, physical, and spiritual body. It is a natural and ancient plant medicine, with a high concentration of vitamins, minerals and is a powerful antioxidant.

Cacao also increases blood flow (oxygen and nutrients) to the brain as well as induces the release of feel-good endorphins. It enhances the immune system and lowers cholesterol and blood pressure.
Cacao is often used to change your perspective, enabling you to recognize and let go of repeated patterns or bad habits, release energetic blockages, and what no longer serves you.

Naturally packed with caffeine, cacao gives you a burst of energy that helps you focus and improve your memory and is said to be a big creativity enhancer and facilitator of deep inner meditation and connections
