Join us for a special Cacao ceremony & ceremonial concert, a night of warmth and celebration where friends gather as family. Beneath the gentle glow of evening, we come together to honor the bonds that unite us, inviting the sacred medicine of cacao to open our hearts and deepen our connections. We assemble together to listen to and connect with our hearts; embracing the gift of the present moment while we weave a tapestry of shared love, connection, and presence.
At the height of summer’s warmth when the sun is golden and nature is in full bloom we gather in sacred ceremony to honor the radiance within you that has been growing all season long.
This is a moment to pause, breathe, and receive the beauty of your becoming.
Guided by the gentle wisdom of cacao, music, meditation, and ritual, we’ll step into a space of gratitude, joy, and embodied presence a time to acknowledge how far you’ve come, and to reconnect with the light that lives inside your heart.
✨ This ceremony is for you if you’re ready to:
🌻 Celebrate your growth and blooming
🔥 Reconnect with your creativity, vitality, and inner flame
💛 Release comparison and reclaim your unique glow
🌿 Ground in community, breath, and nature’s rhythms
🎶 Let your voice and body express what words cannot
Just like the sunflowers that rise toward the sun, you, too, are meant to shine not from force, but from alignment.
Let’s gather in celebration of you, of this summer, and of the golden medicine we all carry.

Jeffrey Connors, also known as as eljeffre, is a multi-instrumentalist musical artist primarily active in New York City. He focuses both in the wildly expressive nightlife scene and also in areas where the focus is more so oriented toward healing, focus and integration. Despite these areas being seemingly opposed, he brings a common energy of ingenuity, artistry and connection to every circumstance - continuously finding that the shadow work at night informs the light work during the day.
His work with Cacao has taught him much over the years, namely that one must quiet the mind in order to listen better to the subtleties of the heart. Every Cacao ceremony ends up being a ritual into the exploration of these subtleties, and he expresses this in the way he plays music during ceremony. Attention to the slightest sonic sensations seems to stimulate the strongest sense of musical wonder in such scenarios.
Within the context of ceremony you will most likely find him playing guitar, flute, drum and synthesizer - as well as prepared soundscapes & samples. He strives toward the evocation of a sense of ancient future, combining timeless traditions with the latest technological capabilities. Doing so allows one to acknowledge the ways of the elders before our time, while also taking up their example of forging forward into new understandings using the means and tools of the current zeitgeist.
