PRIVATE SHAMANIC PRACTICE - SACRED CEREMONIES
Come home to yourself.
On meeting Cacao.
As an engineer graduated from a prestigious French university, I silently laughed the first time I heard those who would become my shamanic teachers speak of Cacao as "a strong teaching plant."
"This is just chocolate!" I thought with an amused smile.
And yet, a few days later, I was being served my first ceremonial Cacao — by my future teacher.
That night, my heart opened. I felt so much divine, ecstatic love that I understood, in a single moment, the subtle yet powerful gifts of Ix Cacao — the spirit of Cacao.
It literally shifted my understanding of this medicine. The engineer in me had her proof. Six months later, I was in Cape Town, living with the shamans to train.
Since then, I have served Cacao to hundreds of people. Many came back to me — a week later, a month later, a year later — to tell me how this "simple experience" of drinking a beverage everyone thinks they already know (as I used to think) had actually healed them, boosted them on their path, brought them clarity, support, release.
Cacao is underrated, because we associate it with chocolate. During my ceremonies, I combine her power of love, purification, and healing with my alchemical shamanic work — for a transformation that goes far beyond what either could create alone.
My goal is to support you on your path. To bring you alignment, if that is what you need. Cleansing and purification, if that is what your body is calling for. Emotional release. Reconnection. Peace. Love.
Whatever is awaiting you for your Highest Good, Ix Cacao and I will do our part to bring you to it.
What opens in a ceremony.
Every ceremony is unique. The Cacao meets you where you are, and what unfolds is shaped by what you have come to receive.
In the hundreds of ceremonies I have served, I have witnessed:
-
Deep emotional wounds dissolving, sometimes those carried since childhood
-
The release of mental weight, of burdens that had become invisible from being carried so long
-
Limiting beliefs and repetitive patterns dropping away at the root
-
A clear, embodied return to your inner divine guidance
-
An opening to the next chapter of your life — sometimes one you had not yet allowed yourself to imagine.
What you receive is always what you actually came for. Often, more than you knew to ask for — for Ix Cacao works in perfect alignment with divine timing, and with the highest desires of your Soul.
How a ceremony unfolds.
Every ceremony opens with a private conversation, days before. Together we set your intention and prepare your field — the energetic ground on which the work will land.
I give you a specific — yet simple — diet to follow a few days before the ceremony, so your body is fully prepared to receive the medicine.
The ceremony itself unfolds over several hours, in privacy. In a curated private space in Cape Town or London. It can also be held in nature, or in a place of your choice, by request and where appropriate.
After drinking the Cacao, all you have to do is relax, and let the work unfold.
I work with Vocal Alchemy. Following your intentions and the specific needs of the ceremony, I may work on the ancestral field — the mother line, the father line. I may activate and harmonise the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine energies. I may carry out deep purifications. I may call in angelic Light, particularly when emotional healing is needed.
This is a unique kind of Cacao ceremony: at its heart, it is shamanic work, amplified by the presence and the healing power of Cacao.
A debrief follows. Integration support is held in the days after.
For whom this work is held.
Every Cacao ceremony stems from a deep intention of the heart. It is a calling one feels deeply within.
This work is for you if: You feel the call of a deeper reconnection to yourself than your life currently allows. You stand at a threshold — a closing, a beginning, a passage asking for more than the mind alone. You carry emotional wounds, limiting beliefs, or repetitive patterns you are ready to release. You are drawn to the medicine, and ready to meet it with an open heart.
This work is not for you if: You are looking for an afternoon experience or a beautiful story to tell. You are seeking entertainment or novelty. You are not yet ready to receive what you have come for.

"This Cacao ceremony lifted an immense weight from me. Since my breakup, I had been living in an unbroken sadness. By the time the ceremony ended, a lightness I had forgotten had settled back into me. I finally met myself again."
— Kevin, London.
"A year on, I see that this Cacao ceremony was the source of every change I made in the months that followed — and of the deep inner work I have done on the healing of my family. Thank you, Jadhe, from the depths of my heart."
— Samantha, London
"I felt the ultimate connection to Source. The most beautiful experience of my life. Thank you, Jadhe. Thank you, Ix Cacao."
— Magaly, Cape Town
A note from me
There is no part of my work that brings me more joy than welcoming someone into ceremony.
To meet you where you are. To hold what you bring with care.
To witness, in those quiet hours, the part of you that has been waiting for this — and to send you back into your life lighter, freer, more yourself than when you arrived.
If something in your heart is feeling the call, I am here. It would be my deep joy to receive you.
For those drawn to deeper work.
For a small number of clients each year, the Cacao ceremony opens onto a deeper accompaniment — the Body Flow Iboga Microdosing® protocol, a 14-week framework I have developed in the Kuchina and Iboga lineage.
Discussed only by application, in private conversation, and reserved for those for whom it is suited.
