Cacao Circle: Shamanic Journey to the Heart

Join our monthly Cacao Circle to indulge your senses and open your heart to a transformative experience like no other! Away from the distractions of everyday life and the never ending tasks on your to-do list, this is an intentional space for self-care and community. 

Cacao ceremonies are one of the oldest holistic practices used by indigenous cultures all over the world. The Mayan and Aztec used Cacao not just as a beverage or food, but for spiritual, medicinal and ceremonial purposes for inner awakening and creative guidance.

IS CACAO THE SAME AS CHOCOLATE?

Not exactly, Cacao used in a Cacao Ceremony is different from regular chocolate we eat. Unlike what you might expect, it doesn’t taste anything like hot chocolate, so it might shock you when you first try it. Ritual cacao is made from ground cacao beans, water, a tiny bit of honey or maple syrup all mixed into a liquid. The taste is actually bitter but naturally high in iron, magnesium and B-complex vitamins.
