I've never tried cacao before — what should I expect? 🍫

Cacao is a warm, heart-opening ceremonial drink made from raw, unprocessed cacao beans. It’s rich in antioxidants and can gently boost mood and focus without the jitteriness of coffee. You might feel more connected to your emotions, more grounded, or simply more present. Everyone’s experience is unique. We recommend coming with an open mind, drinking plenty of water before and after, and listening to your body throughout the ceremony.

When should I avoid drinking cacao? 🍫

While ceremonial cacao is safe for most people, there are a few cases where caution is advised. Cacao contains theobromine, a natural stimulant similar to caffeine but gentler. If you're sensitive to stimulants, pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking antidepressants (especially MAOIs or SSRIs), it’s best to consult your healthcare provider before participating. If you have a heart condition or high blood pressure, speak with a professional, as theobromine can increase heart rate. We also recommend eating something light beforehand and staying well hydrated.

🚗 Is parking available?

🌿 Can I come alone?

Absolutely — many people do! This is a safe, welcoming space to connect with like minded souls and explore something new.

🌟 Do I need any experience?

Not at all. This retreat is perfect for beginners and those curious about mindfulness, nature, and manifestation. You’ll be gently guided throughout the day.
