About this Event
This ceremony we will be celebrating the Spring Goddess and Mother Earth. We will be opening and closing the ceremony in the cosy and calm ceremony space of the Green Room, on the edge of Hampstead Heath.

How the evening will run:
We will begin the evening in the beautiful and spacious studio space ‘The Green Room’, (just on the edge of Hampstead Heath). You will each receive a cleansing, and we will focus on intention-setting for what you would like to get out of the ceremony as well as your intentions for the new season ahead. We will be drinking the Ceremonial grade Peruvian Cacao here in a sacred setting, with guided meditation and optional somatic movement release - stretch, relax, meditate. We will then move onto the Heath for some spring frolicking in nature! We will return to the warm and cosy Green Room for the opportunity to share as we close down the ceremony. There will then be a chance to socialise with your new Cacao family, there will be some nibbles and herbal tea provided, but feel free to bring a snack to share, (there's always plenty to talk about and journal post-ceremony). You will end the evening with a full heart, clear mind and new friends.
