Cacao and Sauna is back, this time in Hackney.

After a powerful gathering in Stratford, we’re bringing the nourishing combination of cacao, sauna and ritual to a new space and you’re invited.

Come as you are.

Leave feeling lighter, clearer and more connected to yourself.

We’ll gather around the fire for a heart-opening cacao ceremony, then move through the powerful alchemy of heat, cold and plant medicine. This experience is a chance to let go of what you’ve been carrying and return to yourself.

What is cacao?

Ceremonial cacao is a gentle plant medicine made from pure, minimally processed cacao beans. It’s rich, chocolatey and earthy with a slightly bitter taste. Unlike conventional chocolate, it retains a high level of nutrients and minerals that support the body and mind.

Cacao contains natural compounds that can lift your mood, enhance focus and encourage a deeper sense of connection. It’s not a stimulant in the usual sense, instead, it works with the nervous system to soothe, ground and open. Thanks to its magnesium and calming properties, cacao creates space for clarity, presence and emotional release.

What to expect?

Through breathwork, guided practices and sauna and plunge rounds, you’ll be supported to soften into yourself, regulate your nervous system and reconnect with your inner rhythm.

This is for you if you’re craving:
 A pause from the noise
 A moment to check in and feel what’s really going on
 Support to release stress, emotion or stuckness
 A reconnection to clarity, calm and self-trust

What’s included:

A warm welcome ritual around the fire
Organic ceremonial cacao
Three sauna and plunge rounds
Breathwork and nervous system support
Gentle ambient sound
Guided rituals to reconnect with your body and heart
Closing round the fire with tea and sharing

This is an invitation to prioritise yourself and take up space.
To release the weight of the roles you hold and come back to what really matters.
To remember who you are beneath the noise.
