You know when you first meet someone and you just instantly love them? You just know that you were meant to meet and become friends.
That is how it felt for me when I first met lady cacao, and it wasn’t even in person!
At the beginning of our awakening journey we had experimented on different pathways, learning new ways to open our minds and find new interesting ideas and philosophies. But when lady cacao found Paul, that was when we found a path that was meant for us to journey on.
Paul’s first ceremony
Paul attended his first cacao ceremony in Halifax held by Liam Browne, which he had actually booked ‘accidentally’ thinking he was going to attend a completely different ceremony! However, after researching what you can do with chocolate in a ceremony he was intrigued. “I’m going to get high on chocolate!” was his words to me, the addict inside looking for a high on anything, even chocolate!
I’ll never forget the day he attended lady cacao, for it was the day our lives changed forever.
When he walked through the door when he got home I barely recognised him! His face seemed to have changed shape, his energy was completely different to what I had known for the years we had been together, even his voice had a subtle difference.
The story he told me both scared me and activated me. He said that going into the ceremony he was an anxious wreck in a room of 40 strangers, sweating and sitting in discomfort and anger, feelings he was very familiar with day to day. But during the ceremony something happened to him that he didn’t understand at the time.
After drinking the cacao and connecting with Kirtan, they were in meditation when he fell into spontaneous breath work. His body had been hijacked and was working on its own without his control. He began to scream, not inside his mind in frustration but from the bottom of his lungs in release. Paulina, the amazing healer and Liams soul partner worked on him during this time and later explained what happened.
This is one of the first times he had allowed himself to let go completely.
As the screaming subsided, lady cacao held him in her love until the end of the ceremony and created the bond that has never broken to this day.
Pauline told Paul that he had released a strong and dark generational attachment through lady cacao and that she had helped to aid him in the separation and protection during this event.
The attachment was a build up of negative energy that had been passed down through his male generations, and Paul was the one who broke it. A combination of the love for his family, counselling and cacao ceremonies helped him get to this point and to succeed in changing his life afterwards.
This sort of thing was something we didn’t really believe in or understand before this day, but after seeing the change that occurred in our lives after that day we couldn’t argue the fact.
So this is when I fell in love with lady cacao. When she saved my husband from the darkness that had consumed him for many years, that had lead him down the path of drug and alcohol abuse, that had dragged him to the bottom of the pit of his mental health.
To see him today living a much more balanced life, constantly practicing sobriety and working on any triggers and traumas that present themselves fills my heart with pride and love.
He activates me to continue on my own healing journey when the going gets tough.
He is my inspiration.
That’s why i fell in love with cacao ceremonies.
