Cacao Ceremony
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the contraindications to participate?
Cacao is the foundation — the heart — of all treatments and offerings at Holistic Wellnest in Tulum. It increases heart rate and circulation, so please read this section carefully.
If you are pregnant, have a heart condition, experience psychosis, schizophrenia, or borderline personality disorder, or take antidepressants such as MAOIs or SSRIs, participation is not advised.
This recommendation comes from a place of deep care and respect for your safety.
At Holistic Wellnest, ceremonial cacao servings are slightly larger than those typically offered in group settings.
Each ceremony with cacao provides a pure, high-quality, potent plant medicine. Your serving is prepared personally for you and adjusted to your body and intention (approximately 25–45 g).
To ensure a safe and impactful journey:
- Avoid all drugs, alcohol, marijuana, and strong medications for at least 48 hours before your session.
- Avoid coffee on the same day, as it can overstimulate the nervous system.
Once your booking is confirmed, you’ll receive a preparation guide with practical details to help you get ready.
How do I prepare for my treatment?
The first step is to carefully read the Contraindications for the package you’ve chosen.
My intention is to meet you where you are – in your humanness, your healing, and your becoming. Therefore, I like to get to know you a little before we meet, to understand your situation, your intentions, and how I can best support you during the day.
Once you complete your reservation, you will be directed to an online questionnaire, which takes about 10 minutes to complete. Please provide the requested details on the same day you make your reservation.
After submitting your responses, you will receive a preparation guide with simple, practical tips to help you get ready.
Is aftercare provided?
Healing is not about doing more; it’s about allowing what’s already shifting within. Your ceremony – the day of your journey – may come to an end, but integration is where true becoming begins.
Every treatment ends with a one-on-one Integration and Reflection Session to help you process your insights. You also receive an eBook with practical follow-up tips to help you get the most benefit from your journey
You don’t need to understand everything at once. Just stay open, trust the guidance and process during your treatment, and feel how the experience continues to unfold.
Roots grow deeper after the storm – your restoration is your growth. Please take some extra time for yourself after your journey (ideally, at least 48 hours) to protect and honor your own energy.
You are part of nature’s pulse; let it guide you through times of processing. Spend time outdoors, be by the ocean, walk barefoot, breathe fresh air, and allow your energy to settle.
Do I need to book in advance?
Yes, you should make your reservation at least 24 hours in advance. Please click here to check the current availability for your chosen package.
What is the duration of the journey?
Ceremonial cacao is part of every service package offered by Holistic Wellnest, and all offerings last for 3 hours.
Which forms of payment are accepted?

Is canceling or rescheduling possible?

What is recommended to wear?
You’re invited to come exactly as you are, in comfort and ease. Light or white clothing is recommended to support openness and flow, and you may wish to bring a few layers, as your body temperature can shift during the session.
You are welcome to use the dressing room, as well as the indoor and outdoor showers and the pool, before or after any session.
Do you offer free consultations?
Where is Holistic Wellnest located?
Holistic Wellnest is located in Tulum, nestled in the neighborhood of La Veleta. In a private, heart-centered space, you’ll be welcomed and surrounded by the four elements—water, fire, earth, and air.

Is the treatment painful?
No, it isn’t painful, though in the beginning it may feel uncomfortable, strange, or intense due to emotional release.
The good news is that everything unfolds naturally and is attuned to what you are able to carry. Each session can be different, and each person experiences it in their own unique way and at their own pace.
During an activation, energy can be released in various ways. Each experience emerges from your somatic intelligence, which is deeply aware of the body’s innate wisdom. You may experience spontaneous movements, which are the body’s natural way of releasing stagnant or blocked energy.
Cord cutting, when needed and always discussed together beforehand, may be felt during a session. This is usually experienced not as pain, but rather as a sense of release, lightness, or relief.
Emotional expression may arise during your journey through deep crying, laughing, singing, screaming, yawning, coughing, or even making animal-like sounds you may never have made before. All of this is part of the body’s somatic intelligence, allowing unprocessed emotions to surface and supporting the release of stored or complex trauma.
Are treatments fully private?
Yes, all services are designed to be experienced individually or as a shared path with a partner.
What is recommended to wear?
You’re invited to come exactly as you are, in comfort and ease. Light or white clothing is recommended to support openness and flow, and you may wish to bring a few layers, as your body temperature can shift during the session.
