Cacao: A Sacred Tradition
For thousands of years, Cacao has played a central role in rituals, ceremonies, and rites of passage across South and Central America. Known as "Mama Cacao," this revered plant offers a gentle invitation to connect more deeply with ourselves, our hearts, and the world around us.
Opening the Heart with Cacao
Cacao is a bridge to inner exploration, supporting you in finding your way back to your heart, creativity, and the present moment. Through this gentle and nourishing plant, we create space to reconnect with our own wisdom and the spirit of nature. Rather than forcing transformation, cacao offers you the opportunity to walk your path at your own pace.

🌙Woman Cirkles & Ceremonies
-
Join us in the heart of nature, our cozy Tipi-Tent, or in Østerbro (Copenhagen) for transformative women's circles, rituals, and ceremonies designed for connection and empowerment. Guided by the nurturing spirit of ceremonial cacao, medicine songs, and the warmth of sisterhood, these gatherings create a sacred space for women to explore their inner worlds together.
🌙 Inspired by the ancient traditions of the red tent or women's lodge, our circles honor the feminine mysteries and the shared experiences of womanhood. These sacred gatherings offer a sanctuary for women to come together, embrace vulnerability, and celebrate the deep power of sisterhood. While we may not bleed in unison, we can still create a feminine space of remembrance, healing, and connection.
In our circles, we listen, share stories, sing, and care for one another, fostering an environment of support and nourishment. Together, we explore the richness of our experiences, nurturing our spirits and cultivating lasting bonds.
Check our Events to find out about the next women's circle, or contact Eva Maria to arrange a private ceremony tailored to your needs.

🌳Plant & Cacao Ceremonies
-
In our intimate group ceremonies, we use cacao as a sacred tool to open pathways of connection—both within ourselves and to the wisdom of nature. These ceremonies invite you to explore deeper levels of consciousness and heart-centered presence through the gentle guidance of this ancient plant.
Each gathering is unique, offering the opportunity to work with a carefully selected local plant ally in addition to cacao. Whether it's a Flower of Love ceremony with Cacao and Bobinsana or a Mother of Dreams ceremony with Cacao and Hawthorn, these plant partners are chosen for their ability to support deeper exploration, connection, and healing.
Our ceremonies are designed to provide a safe, nurturing space for reflection, growth, and a shared sense of community. Whether you are new to plant ceremonies or looking to deepen your practice, these small group experiences offer a gentle yet profound journey inward.
Our ceremonies with Cacao are approximately 5 hours of intuitive meditations where we let Cacao facilitate the flow. It is a blend of meditation, shamanic sound and drumming journey, prayers, chanting, movement, shamanic treatments and sharing.
This is an opportunity to give yourself a break, a little oasis of medicine in the soft embrace of the spirit of Cacao, chanting and shamanic drumming.
We offer these acoustic ceremonies in the open air, in nature, in our tipi/tent or in Copenhagen.
Each ceremony is different, depending on the wheel of the year, the plants, our participants and the energy present at the time. Some are very quiet and allow for stillness, silence and inner listening, others are more expressive with more room for movement and singing.
Check our event calendar for upcoming ceremonies or contact us to book a ceremony for your group of friends, family, colleagues, etc.

What is Ceremonial Cacao?
What is Ceremonial Cacao?
Ceremonial Cacao differs from the hot cocoa many of us enjoyed as children. It’s made from 100% pure, directly traded Cacao, processed by hand using traditional methods. Our Cacao comes from trees growing naturally in the rainforests of Guatemala and Mexico, cared for by local communities that hand-peel each bean with love and respect.
This cacao is a whole food, with nothing added or removed, and we only combine it with water and a few simple spices when preparing it for ceremonies. Every part of the process, from the rainforest trees to the ceremonial cup, is infused with love and care.

Our Cacao
Sourced from non-hybridized trees in ancient tropical rainforests, our ceremonial cacao is minimally processed to preserve its natural integrity. It is a special offering from the Mayan people of Lake Atitlán in Guatemala, who have worked with cacao for generations.
Our music
All our ceremonies are acoustic!
Listen to Naturkaldet on Soundcloud, where Eva Maria shares some of her medicine songs. Listen, feel and explore.
Through the simple act of drinking cacao, you are invited to be present, mindful, and open to whatever arises. Whether it's stillness, dance, laughter, or tears, cacao holds space for you to experience what is needed in each moment.
