Spring Awakening: A Cacao Ceremony for Breath, Connection + Renewal

Spring Awakening: A Cacao Ceremony for Breath, Connection + Renewal

Join us for Spring Awakening, a nourishing evening of ceremonial cacao, guided breathwork, and integration at the Temple in AWKN Ranch Wellness Center in Austin.

Held in honor of the Spring Equinox and the shift into a new season, this experience is designed to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and welcome spring with greater clarity, softness, and intention.

Together, we’ll gather in community to share ceremonial-grade cacao from Guatemala, move through a 45-minute guided breathwork journey, and create space for reflection and integration. This experience is rooted in both nervous system awareness and the quieter magic of seasonal ritual—offering a space that feels grounded, accessible, and meaningful.

Spring often invites renewal, but renewal does not have to mean forcing change. Sometimes it begins with something simpler: breathing more fully, softening what has felt contracted, and making room for what wants to emerge next.

This event is open to both beginners and experienced practitioners. Whether you are craving reset, connection, inner clarity, or simply a chance to pause and be with yourself in community, you are welcome here.

What to Expect

• Arrival and grounding into the space
• Cacao Ceremony and intention setting
• 45-minute guided breathwork journey
• Reflection and integration
• Gentle community connection

Come as you are. Let this be an evening to breathe, soften, and step into spring more awake to yourself. Come as you are.

Please note:

If you are taking certain SSRIs, have a heart condition, or have had heart surgery, please use caution with cacao. Tea can be provided instead, and you are still fully welcome to participate in the breathwork and connection portions of the evening.

We also recommend avoiding a large meal beforehand and arriving early to settle in.
