About this Event

Blossom From Within A Cacao Ceremony of Inner Bloom & Authentic Expression

There is a moment in nature when the flower no longer questions its timing…
it simply opens.

Blossom From Within is an invitation to return to that place inside you the place that is already whole, already ready, already alive and allow it to emerge.

In a world that often asks us to perform, hold back, or shape ourselves to be accepted, this ceremony is a space to soften those layers and reconnect with your authentic expression, your voice, and your heart’s natural rhythm.

Through the gentle yet powerful guidance of ceremonial cacao, we will journey into the body, awaken the senses, and open a pathway for what has been quietly waiting within you to finally bloom.

This is not about becoming someone new.
This is about remembering who you are beneath the noise… and having the courage to express it.

Music becomes our guide, with Sara’s live voice and jeffrey instruments weaving through the space, opening the heart, moving emotion, and giving expression to what lives within.

Together, we will co-create a space of presence, connection, and aliveness, where your truth is not only welcomed, but celebrated.

All tickets are non-refundable. All sales are final.

How to prepare for an optimal experience:

-Avoid coffee and alcohol up to 6 hours before; avoid heavy foods the day of, eat a light meal up to 3,5 hours before; and keep yourself very hydrated during the day.

Some of the health benefits:

This ceremonial grade Cacao contains a high quantity of Magnesium, which is a catalyst for many important brain functions, especially memory and concentration. Magnesium is also highly beneficial for heart function, helping to relax the blood vessels. Cacao also contains a very unique chemical compound called Theobromine that stimulates the circulatory system. Theobromine can imbue us with a long lasting cycle of energy by subtly stimulating the heart with a simultaneous relaxation of muscle tissue, resulting in lower blood pressure with improved blood flow.

Jeffrey Connors, also known as as eljeffre, is a multi-instrumentalist musical artist primarily active in New York City. He focuses both in the wildly expressive nightlife scene and also in areas where the focus is more so oriented toward healing, focus and integration. Despite these areas being seemingly opposed, he brings a common energy of ingenuity, artistry and connection to every circumstance - continuously finding that the shadow work at night informs the light work during the day.

His work with Cacao has taught him much over the years, namely that one must quiet the mind in order to listen better to the subtleties of the heart. Every Cacao ceremony ends up being a ritual into the exploration of these subtleties, and he expresses this in the way he plays music during ceremony. Attention to the slightest sonic sensations seems to stimulate the strongest sense of musical wonder in such scenarios.

Within the context of ceremony you will most likely find him playing guitar, flute, drum and synthesizer - as well as prepared soundscapes & samples. He strives toward the evocation of a sense of ancient future, combining timeless traditions with the latest technological capabilities. Doing so allows one to acknowledge the ways of the elders before our time, while also taking up their example of forging forward into new understandings using the means and tools of the current zeitgeist.

SARA, a soulful alchemist of the heart, a guardian of the earth, and a nurturing community builder from Medellin, Colombia. Sara is a multifaceted artist and a sacred space holder, devoted to fusing the ancient wisdom of cacao, the teachings of yoga, the power of breathwork, and the healing medicine of sound.

Her mission is to guide humans along a journey of self-discovery, connecting them to the core of their being and illuminating their authentic, radiant, and multi-dimensional selves through the elemental teachings of nature. As she honors her inner wisdom, she strives to inspire others to embark on their own self-empowered journey, inviting them to tune into their inner teacher's call.

In her eyes, healing is a symphony of diverse notes that includes the exploration of body, mind, and spirit. To uphold this holistic vision, Sara remains dedicated to preserving ancient practices and traditions. With reverence, she continues to weave the threads of cacao medicine, the practice of yoga and pranayama, and the resonance of medicinal melodies into the offerings she shares with the world.

Sara is not only a certified actress, song writer, vocalist, performer, and designer, but also a channel for the sacred. Drawing deeply from her enriched education and cultural heritage, she employs art as a conduit for communion with the divine, transmutation, and elevation of the human spirit.

Sara's influence has stretched across borders, as she has shared these teachings on a global stage, she’s is the co-creator and co-founder of Gaia Nomaya while also serving as the creatrix behind HearthbySARA. For her, teaching is a blessing, sound is medicine, and ceremony is a sacred service.
