Content
Our 11 weeks together will be divided into 3 sections
- What is Cacao? History, source & myths Â
- Cacao Connection
- Ceremony principals
During these weeks we will learn about the mayan history, what is cacao and why has it become so popular, where and how to source cacao sustainability and ethically, how to prepare it and the science behind why cacao is so healing.
We will use different modalities including meditation, visualisation, prayer, stillness, sharing circles, tantra, movement, breathwork and journaling.
I desire for everyone to find their own unique heart based connection with cacao. As I guide you through these different styles of ceremony and ritual it will start to awaken your own path with cacao. This is not a one size fits all program, it is for you to journey to the furthest parts of your soul to find the sparks of excitement and embody them in your everyday life.
Â
With many years of experience holding ceremonies and rituals I will share the framework needed to open and close ceremony space and how to ensure your participants are safe and nourished by the space you create for them.
Here you will also learn the basics of organising, marketing and creating your ceremony.
Â
On completion of this program
You will have a variety of practices and rituals for your own continued growth and expansionÂ
You will have the tools to hold powerful ceremonies for yourself and others
You will have a community to support the next step of your cacao journey
You will have a connection with the sacred cacao medicine as an allie to guide you in your life

More about me
I open this space with love and deep gratitude for cacao. I have been journeying with cacao since my first visit to Guatemala in 2015, since then my life has transformed, a huge part of that is due to the heart opening effects of cacao.
As I support you on this journey you will feel my feminine, nurturing and sensual essence, I will share authentically from my soul to yours.
I offer you my grounded knowledge gained from the 8 years I have spent in pilgrimage and living in Guatemala, absorbing the mayan culture and ceremonies, my deep gratitude for this medicine and passion to spread it to millions of people.
I am a transformational facilitator, creating experiences for empowerment, connection and embodiment. Since 2016 work has mainly been focused in the areas of Ceremony & Ritual, Tantra & sacred sexuality, Sound Healing and Feminine empowerment.Â
More recently, since giving birth to my son Bodhi in 2021 I have also been curating events for other heart based clients.Â
And now after many years of sharing cacao with 1000’s of people in ceremony, it is time for me to deepen my connection with cacao even further and share this program with you. As I have been creating this for you, with humbleness I have sat in ceremony every day, allowing cacao to be our guide.Â

What previous participants say
I was lucky enough to be part of Arktara’s first cacao initiation. After being present at many of her live ceremonies I knew she was the one to open my heart deeper in sharing this sacred medicine with myself and my community. It was very simple to follow with plenty of time for integration and to have questions answered. Now cacao really feels part of who I am here to be, thank you so much Arktara.
Jodie
I loved it so much it’s hard to say which is my favourite part! I loved being in the held container to journey with cacao. Having the guide’s/instructions of how to do myself ceremonies was brilliant in helping me to explore more of the medicine and myself, enabling me to go deeper. I loved absorbing all of Arktara’s wisdom about cacao, ceremony and all the amazing other topics that were covered.
Anna
Cacao Initiation helped me to create a deeper connection with the spirit of cacao. I loved having an opportunity to cultivate this connection week by week. Also being connected to Walter too, this felt very special and the reading I had also was super powerful and magical! I now feel I have a very strong & clear connection to the spirit of cacao.
Vanessa
Arktara is a dream to listen to. She is excited, playful and passionate about sharing the magic and knowledge of cacao and how it can help us all with our daily lives!
