Cacao for More Joy of Life
A time is beginning in which the world becomes more tangible for us again and it is the ideal moment to connect with your sacral chakra – the center of creativity, joy of life, life energy, and emotional depth.
This energy center just below your navel is connected on a physical level with your sexual organs and on an energetic level also represents themes such as sexuality, creativity, joy of life, pleasure, and sensuality.
Life energy is the pulsating force that flows through us – it wants to move, express itself, touch, and enliven. In the sacral chakra, the seat of our sensuality and creative power, this energy awakens in its subtle, vibrating form. It is not only of a sexual nature, but shows itself wherever we act with joy, desire, and devotion: when dancing, painting, singing, when creating something new, or when we simply immerse ourselves fully in the present moment. By opening our perception and following joy, we honor our sensual aliveness – and connect with a deep yes to life itself.
The power of cacao can gently support this inner transformation. It connects you lovingly with your body, your feelings, and your creative power – and allows you to dive deeper into the joy of life and sensuality of this new beginning.
In addition, Ritual Cacao is also said to have an aphrodisiac effect, which means it can bring your sexual energy into flow while at the same time making you more sensitive to deeper feelings connected to this topic.
Your Cacao Ritual for Flowing Life Energy
If you consciously connect with the currently rising energy, you can bring your life energy back into flow – on a physical, emotional, and energetic level. Spring helps you to emerge from your inner winter rest and to reconnect with your creative power. The gentle plant medicine of Mama Cacao offers you her hand for this.
- Find a place in nature where you feel comfortable. Your cacao is already lovingly prepared at this point and ideally filled into a thermos. Maybe you sit in the forest or by a stream or on a meadow – just for yourself in connection with nature.
- Come into an upright seated position and take a few deep breaths. Perceive nature with all your senses, feel the ground beneath you, sense the fresh air and the sun on your skin, listen to the sounds, smell your cacao. Let your sensory perceptions become the anchor for this moment.
Become aware: You are here to feel, to enjoy, and simply to be. - Now connect with the cacao spirit. Invite it to be here with you today. Then give your intention for this ritual into the cacao and take your first conscious sip.
- Sip by sip you allow yourself to dive deeper and more mindfully into feeling. The feeling of your surroundings – Mother Earth – the feeling of the cacao and the conscious feeling of your body and your inner world.
- Move your body in a flow – circle your hips and feel the life energy within you. Imagine drawing the orange energy of Mother Earth up through your legs.
- Feel an unstoppable stream of energy flowing through your entire body and ask your inner self: What gives me energy? Take the first answer that comes.
- Take this answer with you and promise yourself today and in the coming time to do more of what gives you energy.
- To close, stand up once and shake your body for a few minutes. Also feel the energy your body releases in this moment.
- When it feels complete, come to a standstill and bring your hands into a prayer position in front of your heart. Thank yourself, the cacao medicine, and life for all these experiences and close the ritual.
5 Tips to Strengthen Your Sacral Chakra
In addition to a cacao ritual, there are other wonderful tools to strengthen your sacral chakra. Here I share my five favorite things with you:
- Allow yourself to be creative: Whether painting, writing, singing, photographing, crafting, and more. Choose something that brings you joy.
- Practice hip opening yoga poses such as the pigeon, the seated or lying butterfly, as well as Malasana.
- Treat yourself and give yourself enough self care moments alone. Whether in the bathtub with a good book, during a candlelight dinner, or through a sensual cacao ritual.
- Connect with the element of water, which is associated with the sacral chakra. Go swimming or enjoy time under the shower and imagine how the water washes away everything that no longer belongs to you.
- Dance! Turn on your favorite playlist, close your eyes, and move intuitively to the music. Allow yourself sensual movements from your hips.
Journaling Questions for Your Sacral Chakra
To close, we would like to give you a few journaling questions that you can either answer after the described cacao ritual or in between, to explore this topic even more deeply:
- When and where do I feel alive?
- Which things and people give me energy?
- Which part of myself do I not fully allow myself to show or to live yet?
- If everything were possible and I could not fail, what would I do?
I wish you much joy in diving into and activating your life energy!
