About this event
Join Helen Driver, founder of The Rising Space, for a beautiful healing journey of self exploration through the transformational and heart-opening power of ceremonial cacao, meditative practices and soul rituals.
"It's like entering a sanctuary. You are invited to meet yourself and you are held the whole way through. Glorious evening" - Emily
Welcome
You are warmly invited to an intimate and cosy candlelit women's cacao circle (max 8 people) on Sunday 19th May.
This space is designed to support you on your journey towards better self-care, healing, expansion and self-partnership.
Part of a healthy partnership is offering yourself time and space away from everyday obligations and responsibilities so you can come into alignment with your own needs.
Ceremonial cacao can be an important ally on this journey. Cacao gently softens any hard edges, allowing for a release of anxiety and stress, particularly in the heart centre. It is a powerful and nourishing ritual for the mind, body, soul and heart.
We will pair organic cacao with meditative practices; visualisation; mindful connection, gentle movement and somatic body awareness techniques, to bring you back into alignment.
At The Rising Space, you will feel seen and welcomed for the beautiful soul you are.
So take a deep breath and let’s journey together.

Ceremonial cacao its benefits
A cup of organic vegan ceremonial grade cacao will be prepared with intention using traditional spices, fresh organic turmeric & ginger, cinnamon sticks and a pinch of chilli. Organic cashew milk is also blended with purified revese osmosis water, to create a more indulgent and creamy brew. Cacao is a non psychoactive plant medicine noted to lower blood pressure, decrease stress levels, and increase an overall sense of well-being.
Cacao is different to commercial chocolate, because it is minimally processed and cultivated with intention. It contains the "bliss molecule", the feeling of being connected, aligned and at peace.
Unlike chocolate, it is packed full of minerals, magnesium, iron, and calcium phenylethylamine (PEA), which is a natural mood enhancer. Anandamide is a neurotransmitter that can help to improve mood and reduce anxiety. Theobromine in cacao can also have a calming effect on the body and can help to reduce stress and anxiety. It is safe to consume in the right dosage.
There are some instances which could mean cacao may not be suitable as a full ceremonial dose for you. Please see info at the bottom before making your booking.

What if I can't make this circle?
Don't worry, The Rising Space holds monthly in person circles around the Full Moon (see the other listings). Each circle is different and unique, just like you. The space offers an emphasis on deep listening, self reflection, slowing down, healing meditative practices, soul rituals and tending to your beautiful heart.
IMPORTANT (before you make your booking)
In most instances cacao is perfectly safe and very good for you on a soul level and nutritionally speaking. The dose may need to be adjusted if you are pregant or on medication.
I have worked with many clients who are at different stages of pregnancy and clients who are taking regular medication, but it all comes down to being informed and making a choice which you feel comfortable with. Therefore, I am sharing some helpful guidance to support your decision ~
Do let me know if you are pregnant, taking medication, anti-depressants or 5-HTP or if you have any dietary needs or allergies. You can also reach out to me directly if you have any questions on helen@therisingspace.co.uk.
You are welcome to consult your medical practitioner about any pre-existing conditions, medications or concerns.
Know that if your dose needs to be reduced, this will not hinder your experience. Cacao is a portal to the heart, but the journey in the space is just as important. You will not miss out on anything.
Please note:
Helen Driver or The Rising Space cannot be held responsible for any reaction if you have not disclosed dietary needs, health concerns or medication you are taking. It is ultimately a personal choice to consume ceremonial cacao, so please read the articles above and do feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss the above.
There may be two lovely cats roaming in case you have strong allergies. Incense, herbs and sacred wood will be burning for anyone with asthma.
