The Heart
Expansion
A Cacao, Breath & Intuitive Guidance Ceremony
With Sherry Lucas & Ania Haas
Space is intentionally limited · Advance registration required
"There are moments when the mind grows quiet, the heart softens, and something deeper within us becomes easier to hear."
This evening is an invitation to slow down, open, and listen.
We will gather in a warm, candlelit ceremonial space and share the ancient medicine of ceremonial cacao — known for centuries as a heart-opener and gentle catalyst for inner clarity. From that softened place, Ania will guide you through a calming, heart-centered breath practice designed to quiet the mind and deepen your presence.
And then — in that open, receptive state — each participant will receive a personal intuitive message from Sherry Lucas. A gentle, meaningful reflection of what your heart is already carrying.
The journey of the evening
What the evening holds
Arrive & Settle
Enter the ceremonial space. Let the warmth of candlelight and the scent of cacao begin to soften the day.
Share Ceremonial Cacao
Receive a warm cup of pure ceremonial cacao — a heart-opening plant medicine used for centuries to invite presence, warmth, and inner clarity.
Heart-Centered Breathwork
Ania guides you through a gentle, calming breath practice — moving beneath the noise of the mind and into a deeper, more receptive state of awareness.
Receive Your Intuitive Message
From that open, softened place, Sherry offers each participant a personal intuitive message — a gentle reflection of what your heart is already holding.
Reflect & Connect
Time to integrate, share, and simply be — in the warmth of genuine human connection.
Every participant will receive a
personal intuitive message.
Sherry's message may reflect an emotion you have been carrying, a relationship pattern asking for attention, an inner question you haven't yet voiced, or an energetic theme that is ready to be seen.
It is not fortune-telling. It is not a prediction. It is a gentle mirror — offered with warmth, held with care — inviting you to trust what you already know within yourself.
