Cacao: A Mindful Experience

Ceremonial cacao refers to premium grade, pure cacao ethically sourced from small family farms practicing regenerative agroforestry. This is single-ingredient, nothing added or removed, minimally processed and crafted specifically for ceremony.

What is cacao ceremony? This simply means relating to cacao with gratitude, intention and reciprocity. There is no right or wrong way to hold a cacao ceremony, you can practice solo or in a group, it's about reflecting on what is arising and true in the present moment. Yes, cacao is delicious, good for your health, mood, and energy, but it is also considered a way to put your life in order. It’s a way to reconnect with our own hearts, tend to our relationships, and walk through life purposefully and guided by clear vision.

Mood benefits of cacao: substantial science back cacao as beneficial for mood and neurochemistry. Ceremonial cacao contains beneficial neurotransmitters and neuromodulators already present in our brains. It also contains reuptake inhibitors that break chemicals down, so the good mood lasts longer. When you drink ceremonial cacao you may feel expansive, blissful, connected to self or others, inspired, connected to your intuition, grounded and you may experience the movement of stuck, stagnant energy. 

 Cacao vs coffee: where coffee contains caffeine, cacao contains theobromine – what does this mean? Coffee stimulates the central nervous system, cacao stimulates the cardiovascular system – which increases blood flow and alertness. The theobromine is gentler on your body and keeps you energized for longer.
