Terms & Guidelines – Cacao Ceremony

1. Joining the Ceremony
Your place in the ceremony is confirmed once your booking is complete. By reserving, you acknowledge that you have read these guidelines and feel called to take part with presence and respect.

2. Personal Responsibility
This space is offered for reflection, connection, and inner exploration. It does not replace medical or therapeutic support. You are invited to listen to your body and honor your own pace throughout the experience.

3. Health Considerations
Ceremonial cacao is a gentle yet active plant medicine and may not be suitable for everyone. It is best to avoid participation if:
•    you are pregnant 
•    you have serious heart conditions 
•    you are taking antidepressants (such as MAOIs) 
•    you experience very high blood pressure 
You are kindly encouraged to stay well hydrated before and after the ceremony, as this supports the body in integrating the experience.
If you have any concerns or uncertainties around consuming cacao, please take the time to do your own research and, if needed, seek guidance from a qualified professional before joining.

4. Cancellations & Changes
Life moves, and plans can shift.
•    Changes or cancellations made at least 48 hours in advance can be rescheduled or refunded 
•    Within 48 hours, bookings are non-refundable 
•    Not attending the ceremony means the session is considered used

6. Shared Space & Confidentiality
This is a space of trust. What is shared within the circle is held with care and respect. You are kindly asked to honor the privacy and experiences of others.
