THEME OF THE CEREMONY
BREATH
Our first breath marks our life’s beginning and our last honors our passing to the other side. In between, our personal exchange with the breath is constant and impacts the function of our body, our state of mind and virtually every aspect of our being.
Pause and take this in – we are all breathing from the very same bubble of air, the very same source of inspiration that all sages and saints throughout time has drawn theirs inspiration upon.
Isn’t that amazing to think of?

Dance can help us to come more alive, to feel more deeply, to shift, move and transform unwanted energies. Dance can support us in connecting with our bodies and feelings and to express physically, that which we might not have words for.
Dance is Medicine. Dance is healing.
・・・・・・・・・・・・・・
The breath and dance weaved together with ritual, poetry, instruments and song, this Ceremony is an invitation to journey and explore both the landscape of self and the field of community.
Finding balance between connection to self and connection to others. Equally important.
We are leaning into the energies of Fall Equinox that bathes us this same week. An invitation to move towards more balance in our lives on all levels.
With many blessings in our hearts for each and every one of you, welcome <3

SHORT ABOUT CACAO:
Cacao is a plant medicine used for healing of the whole person – body, mind, heart and soul.
No matter how you wish to use Cacao, she meets you where you are in your own process. You could drink it when you want an energy boost, or to replenish your magnesium layer. (Cacao is a superfood!)
Others use Cacao to work with blockages in the body, open their hearts, get help with more focus in studies, increased creativity, assistance with inner child work, yoga practice, meditation etc, etc. The applications are endless.
We use wild grown, direct trade, Criollo beans from Guatemala. The beans are hand picked, hand peeled and treated with care and love from bean to cup.
On the international market, This Cacao is known as “Keiths Cacao”.
HEALTH PRECAUTIONS
𝐂𝐚𝐜𝐚𝐨
The monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors in Cacao, which allows for the absorption of neurotransmitters in the body, can interact with some anti-depressant medications and create unpleasant side effects, such as migraine when combined with such medications.
Please let us know beforehand if you are taking any medications, if you are pregnant, or have a severe heart condition, as we will need to adjust your dose accordingly.

THE LOCATION
We will be gathering in a new and super cool venue in Gøteborggata 27b.
The front door will be unlocked, take the stairs up to the first floor and take left.
WHAT TO BRING
- Loose-fitting / light clothes + something that keeps you warm, when sitting or laying down, like a warm sweater + scarf or blanket.
- Water bottle.
- There is no yoga mats at the venue. So if you need something to sit on, like a mat or a cushion, bring your own.
- Optional – Food/snack to have available during or after Ceremony.
- Optional – Sacred object to put on the altar or offering.
- Optional – Ear plugs if you are sensitive to certain sounds/instruments.
WHAT TO AVOID
Avoid caffeine, sugar and other strong stimulants or animal milk at least 2-3 hours before the Cacao Ceremony. Preferably the whole day.
Fasting from food a whole day before a ceremonial dose of Cacao is not necessary – and we don’t recommend it for first-timers as an empty system may accelerate assimilation and bring on bitter-related nausea. Normal or light eating a few hours beforehand is fine. If you need – bring food to have handy during or after the Ceremony.
HEALTH GUIDELINES
We are following the updates from Folkehelseinstituttet, regarding restrictions and health guidelines to maintain health safety as much as possible.
No experience is needed from before, only a calling in your own heart for deeper connection.
