Plant medicine is as old as humanity, it’s not woo, I promise. There are powerful codes in the DNA of plants, fungi, and other natural medicines that work like magic. I’ll give you a recipe that makes it a truly blessed and tasty ceremony. 

I invite you to explore Cacao to heal your relationship with yourself and how you relate with the world, not just people relationships. Getting into “right relationship” with things matters too because the way we relate to one thing usually mirrors how we relate to everything else!

I use one of three brands, Keith’s, Ora, and Four Visions. All of these are harvested sustainably from the Amazon Rainforests and processed by ethical means, which means the entire process of using this beautiful medicine is a blessing for the planet, not just yourself. Supporting these businesses helps to protect and heal our amazing home base, Mama Gaia. 

Here’s the recipe:

Daily Dose is less than a regular dose (about 30grams), you can play with the dosage according to your weight and sensitivity to caffeine, theobromine, and cacao. Some people are sensitive to all.

Using 10-15grams, 1cup boiling water, 1/8th to 1/4th cup organic or sustainably processed milk of any variety, a dash of sweetener (I recommend honey, stevia, or maple syrup), froth or blend. 

Be sure to sit with the cacao before taking your first sip! Give thanks for the ancestors and keepers of cacao, the cultivators and all those who made it available to you! Set your (powerful and potent) intention asking for healing, wholeness, and resolution. Then offer the prayer to whatever benevolent presence, honoring the divine timeline and lessons the process will bring. Sip and enjoy!

Much Love,
