As I sit listening to the rain pouring down outside, I’m reminded how life so often mirrors the weather — unpredictable, at times heavy, but always moving through. The threat of flooding is there, yet in the stillness of this moment, I find peace in the way I know best: preparing to hold space. Tomorrow evening we gather for a New Moon Eclipse Cacao & Meditation, and tonight my practice is in the planning. Writing out the steps of the meditation, feeling into the rhythm and flow, and searching for the right music to carry us on the journey. This is my meditation — honouring the process of holding space, weaving together the elements that will guide us into release, renewal, and connection with Mama Cacao. 🌿 No matter what is happening around us, there is a sanctuary in preparation, a reminder that we are always capable of returning to stillness, to intention, to heart.

Hello Sacred Souls 🖤💚🧡 Sacred Cacao Path has always been about heart, connection, and the deep medicine of cacao. ✨ Two years ago it was just an idea, and it grew into something real, a space, a community, and then a CIC. I’ll be honest, things with the CIC haven’t gone to plan. But then again, when do things ever go exactly as we imagine? This path is rarely straight, but it’s always sacred. 🌿 There was never a question about cacao, it remains my passion, my anchor, and my daily medicine. What I do know for sure is that the only thing I’d regret more than the challenges I face right now would be to do nothing at all. So, I’ll keep posting here, and Sacred Cacao Path CIC will also have its own webpage page on the new retreat_at_the_mill website. This journey is part of my bones, and I have decided that I am honouring it fully, even in the moments where the way forward isn’t yet clear. Thank you for walking this path with me. The journey continues, as it always will. 🌸 Also, Anyone else see a ghostly face in the cacao in the cup? 👻 #sacredcacaopath #cacaocoaching #AngilinaStylianou #cacao #cacaoceremony #cacaoceremonyuk #holistichealing #mindfulnessjourney #sacredrituals #hearthealing #womenwhoheal #SoulConnection #sacredfeminine #mentalhealth #bipolarawareness #bipolar

Today, the sky opens. Will you? The Lions Gate Portal is wide open, and this isn’t just another “woo woo date” to mark in your diary. This is ancient magic. Celestial alignment. Galactic go-time. 🦁 Leo energy meets cosmic fire. 🌌 Sirius aligns with the Earth. ✨ Your highest timeline is calling. This portal invites you to claim the next 12 months with intention, fire and soul. It’s not about hustling your way forward — it’s about aligning, embodying, and receiving. 💫 So, today I ask you: What are you ready to release that no longer matches the person you’re becoming? What are you choosing to call in, not just with your words — but with your energy, your actions, your vision? Here’s a little Lions Gate Ritual to support your manifesting: 🕯 Light a candle 🍫 Drink ceremonial cacao (if you have it – heart openers unite!) ✍🏼 Write your vision for the next 12 months like it’s already done. 📿 Say it out loud. Stand tall. Own it. Send it your friends like it has already happened 🌬 Breathe it in. Let your body believe it. 🔥 Burn the paper (safely) to send it into the ethers. This is quantum. This is sacred. This is NOW. Drop a 🔥 below if you’re choosing to manifest consciously today. You’re not waiting for a sign. This is the sign. Walk through the gate. Own the next 12 months. The universe responds to energy in motion. #LionsGatePortal #manifestation #SacredCacaoPath #RetreatAtTheMill #Cacao #88portal #QuantumHealing #vision #soulalignmentcoach #AngilinaStylianou #spiritual #sacred #heart

Everything hurts, I rolled over in bed and it woke me up. Today was a BIG day, today I started the floors, I began the mammoth task of restoring floors from the 1840’s. So many people told me to pain the floors white, but for me that felt like sacrilege, so I gathered a few friends and a very knowledgeable gent and we got to work. I have lindseed oil ready for when we are ready but for today I feel like we have really made a huge step forward for Retreat at the Mill. I have rebuild many times for lots of reason but this is the best yet.

Take a look at this floor. Today is floor day, it’s the big one! Today me and few fabulous others are restoring this beautiful floor. This feels like one of the most pivotal moment for the Retreat at the Mill. It’s going to be a long day but it’s going to be worth every second. Next time you see it, well watch this space ⤵️ #renovation #retreat #todmorden #womeninspiringwomen
