The Mindful Paths Mindfulness, yoga & cacao I’m here to facilitate your healing journey - Cacao to Zen Community

22/04/2026

This Full Moon’s Cacao Ceremony will be something special!

The fire of our events is moving to private farm, to bring us even more peace, more grounding, more intimacy and serenity. (And only a short drive from the center of Dubai)

The cacao, the sound healing, the fire will hit differently in this beautiful new setting 🌳

Connecting with nature has always been the center of my ceremonies and retreats and I know how much we all missed being outdoors and carefree 😌

On the 3rd of May we are gathering under the full moon with the green grass under our feet floating away as sip our cup of cacao, carried by the vibration of sounds, chatting around the fire.

It’s a space to transform, where the shifts happen softly but profoundly.

This full moon is chance to pause and reflect. A chance to let your intuition work and bring you what you need, what you need to let go of and what you can create space for before the heat of the summer kicks in!

Dm to let me know if you’re coming or just sing up via the link in the bio.

Blessings,

Sylvie

Let’s be real…

words like “ceremony” and “healing” can feel a bit much if you’ve never tried this before. Sometimes it sounds like a club you’re not part of, or a bit too “woo-woo” for a Tuesday afternoon.

But here’s the truth: we’re just hitting the reset button. In this video, we’re doing three very precious, very simple things:

Cacao: Basically, a cup of high-quality, pure and organic chocolate that’s just prepared the way it used to be (before it became a store product)! Ceremonial cacao helps you feel grounded and present.

Breathwork: Just breathing on purpose. It’s the fastest way to tell your nervous system that it’s finally okay to relax.

Sound: I use these crystal bowls to create a “sound bath” it’s like a deep tissue massage for your brain.

No experience required. No “spiritual” dictionary needed. Just a backyard, some good people, and a couple hours to actually be in your own body. It’s precious because it’s simple. And that’s just what we had with ’s beautiful garden with .makeup and the girls!

✨ Join the next one!

Sunday, May 3rd 5:30PM - location: Margham, Dubai

We are taking this circle to a private venue, 40 minutes drive from Dubai, where we can be safe and away from the city noise while we gather around the fire 🔥

Beginners welcome, curiosity encouraged.

Want a more personal experience? I also host private sessions for groups of friends, families, or teams. If you want to bring this “mental massage” to your own backyard, DM me for details!

Full Moon Cacao Ceremony

It has been a long time we had the luxury to gather outdoors around the fire for a Full Moon Cacao Circle!

I invite you to join me on Sunday 𝐌𝐚𝐲 𝟑𝐫𝐝 𝟓:𝟑𝟎 𝐏𝐌 at a private, serene location to slow down and connect!

The circles have been there for us as safe haven and I am so happy to have found somewhere to host it for us while the weather is still on our side 🙂

We will have a short breath and sound healing journey with time to journal, self-reflect, ground and leave lighter than you came.

For that cacao will be made with love, a hint of Chamomile, rose and agave to take the edge! While I love a little chili, I will offer it on request so the experience can be enjoyed by all of us whether we like spicy or not 🙂

You can bring your mat, a little pillow and blanket for extra comfort. Water will be available and we can always stay back for a pot-luck dinner!

If you’re ready to join book your spot with an early bird discount until the 28th of April 🤍

Blessings,
Sylvie

The Return Home: A Breath & Sound Integration

Returning to the safety that is felt within. This session is designed as a bridge back to the body, blending a moderate-intensity breathwork practice with the restorative power of a sound journey.

Fridays 7 PM, Sustainable City, Dubai

We will use the breath to clear the “noise” of daily life, followed by a gentle immersion in sound to help integrate your experience and ground your nervous system.

Whether you are a seasoned breather or this is your very first time, you will be held in a space that honors your pace. Come as you are, and leave feeling more like yourself.

DM us to join in!

Ask me anything! About cacao tho… I am so happy to bust the myths and make sure when you get the right kind of cacao.

What makes it heart opening?? Why is it different from organic cacao powder? What are the spiritual and physiological benefits? Why should you care where it is from and how it was made?

All these are questions you can ask me and questions that we cover during the 45 hours trauma informed cacao training .

If you are contemplating whether the course is for you, drop me a DM & let’s chat!

Blessings,

Sylvie

Are you giving space to your emotions?

I hope you can welcome and meet them with compassion, it is the time when I think most of us are seeing our most vulnerable parts for the first time.

And hey, I just recorded this short video yesterday evening to drop in and say, it’s okay if you’re feeling strong emotions even if we are reassured and well taken care of by the government of the UAE. Yes they are amazing! Yet we are allowed our emotions too - these are both true 😉

We all got a little taste of what a war can look or sound like, and so moving through emotions with compassion, with knowing that you’re not alone can be a great companion on this journey!

And yes, stay safe and positive when you can, but never think that something is wrong with you in the moments when you find it hard to navigate. We’re human, and the situation we found ourselves in overnight is not what we are used. So be patient and yourselves ❤️

If you need any help to ground and center feel free to reach out and keep an eye out on the stories so you can join the online events in this space!

Lots of love,

Sylvie

Ice baths always bring by a breakthrough! A moment of celebration, and that signature dopamine hit that lasts!

It’s been a while since we last gathered for an afternoon retreat, and I miss them.

Since January I have been out curating a new venue for us but haven’t met the right vibes.

Itching to offer these wholesome and social afternoons again, they truly a space to slow down, to give space to ourselves so transformation can unfold without being forced.

When we slow down and become present, we activate the most creative parts of our brain, and when we add that kick of ice… It’s something else, it’s something that will keep you going the whole next week. It feels like the freshest breath of air paired with the best blow out!

Hope to see you soon for a (re)treat again 🤍

If you have a good suggestion for a space that cab hold us and ground us, feel free to reach out or leave a comment and we may move this afternoon to your favorite space 😉
