Step 1: Prepare Your Space (1 Minute)
Find some time in your day where you won’t be disturbed for a few moments, and find a peaceful place to sit. This could be your favourite chair, a cosy corner, or the best is outdoors in the sun.
Create an ambient space, which could include lighting incense or a candle.
Step 2: Create Your Cacao Brew (3 Minutes)
Pop your kettle on and boil some water.
Scoop 2-3 tablespoons of our Ritual Cacao Crumbles into your favourite ritual mug.
Add hot water (or warm milk of your choice), stirring slowly as the crumbles dissolve.
As you stir, focus on the rich aroma and silky texture of the cacao. Let this process ground you in the present moment.
Add sweetener and spices to your desired taste (optional).
Step 3: Set Your Intention (5 Minute)
Go to your quiet spot and get comfortable.
Once you are sitting quietly, take three deep breaths and allow yourself to let go of any worries and busyness of the day.
Become mindful of where you are sitting, your surroundings, and how you are feeling.
Hold your mug of Ritual Cacao in both hands, close your eyes, and connect with your breath.
Set a simple intention for the rest of your day. This could be something like "I am calm and centred," "I embrace the joy in each moment," or "I am capable and strong."
Sip your Ritual Cacao slowly, savouring the flavours and allowing your intention to sink in with each sip.
Spend 5 mins in contemplation, and see if any messages come bubbling up from your subconscious.
Step 4: Close Your Ritual (1 Minute)
Once you’ve finished your Ritual Cacao, take another deep breath, feeling the warmth and energy from the cacao opening your heart and filling your body with peace and harmony.
Take a moment to recognise all the gifts and blessings in your life, and feel the love that is around you.
Blow out your candle, or incense, and let the the peace and calm you’ve cultivated in your heart support you for the rest of the day.
