A cup of bliss and wellbeing… Sounds a lot like you fully in the present. Cacao, the bean from which chocolate is born— full of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, cacao is high in iron, magnesium, theobromine, and anandamide. Consuming cacao can help lower blood pressure, improve blood flow to the brain, and stimulate a sense of blissfulness.
As a solo practice, the ritual of preparing and consuming cacao helps us to slow down and witness the engagement between our senses and a powerful plant medicine. In a group, intimacy and deeper connection is cultivated in the act of mindfully consuming as a community.
Cacao ceremony is often combined with sound guided meditation to help enhance the energy-boosting and heart-opening effects of the cacao.
