12-Week Ceremonial Initiation
a Journey of Cacao, Personal Healing & Ceremony Facilitation
Cacao Facilitator Training UK
Totnes, Devon
This journey is for those who are hearing the call to hold sacred cacao ceremonies with integrity, devotion and embodied wisdom.
Cacao is calling many of us home. Into our hearts. Into our truth.
Into a way of offering healing that is gentle, honest, and deeply soulful.
This apprenticeship is not a course.
It is a 12-week initiatory journey — a ceremonial container where you will heal, soften, remember, and rise into your role as a cacao facilitator, held in integrity and depth.
Working in an intimate group of 3–4 apprentices, you will be guided through a transformational arc that unfolds over three moons, blending:
​
Deep personal healing journeys with Cacao, ancestral connection, energetic and somatic embodiment, plant spirit communication, ceremony creation, ceremonial Space holding, ritual visioning and birthing, channeling and intuitive guidance and practical facilitation skills.
​
Every part of this journey weaves together healing, teaching and embodied remembering — so that you do not just learn to lead cacao ceremonies…
you become a facilitator rooted in authenticity, safety and soul.
Who Is This Apprenticeship For?
This apprenticeship is for you if:
​
You feel called by cacao — not casually, but as a soul calling.
​
You long to guide others with integrity, gentleness and depth.
You know your healing is part of your path of service.
​
You desire a grounded, embodied apprenticeship, not a quick certification.
You’re ready to explore your voice, intuition and medicine.
You want a mentor who will walk with you, not above you.
You’re seeking a small, held community for deep transformation.
This is not for you if:
​
You are looking for a fast-track cacao course.
You don't feel ready to explore your own healing, beliefs and patterns.
You prefer large-group trainings with less one-to-one attention.
You want more of an add-on training approach, rather than a ceremonial initiation.
The 12 Week Ceremonial Journey
​
This cacao facilitator apprenticeship unfolds over 12 weeks through ceremony, teaching, integration and supervision.
​
It follows the natural rhythm of a plant spirit initiation:
​
🌑 WEEKS 1–6 — THE DESCENT
A journey of healing, remembering and opening the heart.
In these first 6 weeks you will:
​
Meet the Spirit of Cacao through guided shamanic journeys
​
Learn energetic protection techniques & cleansing practices
​
Connect to your spirit guides, protection allies & ancestors
​
Learn how to communicate with plant spirits
​
Begin to acknowledge and heal old patterns, beliefs or blockages
​
Deepen into your body & expand into your inner voice
​
Learn to craft sacred talismans or medicine objects
​
Be witnessed and held in your healing journey
​
This phase is about you — your healing, your lineage, your truth.
​
​
🌒 WEEKS 7–12 — THE RISING
​
A journey of embodiment, leadership and facilitation.
Here you shift into learning how to guide others through ceremony:
You will learn:
​
The potency of uncovering your own Cacao Medicine Story
​
How to create a safe ceremonial container
​
How to create powerful energetic protection for ceremonies
​
Crafting sacred spaces and altars and calling for your ceremonial tools

​
How to hold ceremonial space for small circles and larger groups

​
​
This is where you rise into your role — with confidence, clarity and embodied wisdom. The journey ends with a final in-person initiation & certification ceremony.
​
To honour the depth of this journey, it’s important that apprentices can attend all in-person sessions. All in-person sessions for the cacao facilitator training take place in a beautiful ceremonial yurt in Totnes, Devon.
