About this Experience
What you'll do: You and your group settle into a circle in your own space while Lauren leads a private cacao ceremony built around real connection, not performance.
Cacao Ceremony - Sip a warm, ceremonially prepared cacao drink made from organic ingredients while your host walks your group through the ritual and its meaning.
Heart-Opening Meditation - Move through a guided meditation that quiets the noise in the room and brings your group into genuine presence with each other.
Optional Sound Bath - Add a live sound healing session using instruments tuned to calm the nervous system, layered on for groups who want to go deeper.
Oracle Card Reading - Draw cards together to spark honest reflection and conversation that goes further than typical group talk.
Sharing Circle - Close the experience in a held space where everyone gets to speak and be heard.
By the end, your group isn't just relaxed, they're actually connected, and that's the part people keep bringing up afterward.
Why we love it for your group:
At-Home Setup - Lauren brings the private cacao ceremony to you, so your group stays in a familiar space instead of traveling across Tampa.
Private and Intimate - Your booking is just for your group, with no strangers, no shared studio, and no pressure to perform.
Sound Bath Add-On - Layer in live sound healing to customize how deep your Tampa cacao ceremony experience goes.
Fully Facilitated - Lauren runs the ceremony, meditation, and circle start to finish, so you show up with nothing to prepare.
Scales With Your Group - Booking options adjust to your party size and available time, so you only pay for what you need.
