Why Pure Cacao?
Considered sacred by ancient Mesoamerican peoples, cacao offers valuable nutrients for the nervous system and emotional well-being. Rich in antioxidant flavonoids and tryptophan, it supports serotonin production for a mood-enhancing effect and activates anandamide, the "bliss molecule," providing a sense of well-being.

How to Prepare Your Ritual:
Chop about 20g of cocoa powder and heat 180-200ml of water or plant-based beverage. Melt the cocoa slowly to preserve its aroma and properties, adding spices like cinnamon or ginger for a holistic preparation. Breathe deeply, set your intention, and let the cocoa guide you.
