Please note that we will be sharing a ceremonial level of cacao prepared with oat milk & honey.

Things to avoid

[Day before]:

• Alcohol if possible because it's dehydrating, strains the liver, and dulls cognition. Staying clear helps your body fully absorb the cacao and keeps the third eye and crown chakras open for a deeper journey

[Day of]: 

• Caffeine as it may be over-stimulating and affect your connection to the Cacao. 

• Dairy in the hours before as it prevents the stomach lining from absorbing the Cacao. 

• Big meals - only a light lunch is recommended.

There is a 72 hour cancellation policy.
