Listen Later

Have you heard of the superfood cacao? Well if not, this episode will give you all you need to know about what cacao is, and how you can use it for more than just nutrition through cacao ceremonies. Erin Eber, spiritual awakening guide and expert on cacao, breaks it down for us while in the "You Want Me To Do What??" section, we hear about Shanna and Nicole's own first cacao ceremony.

Episode Recap: Interview with Erin - 0:41s, "You Want Me To Do What??" section - 41:37s 

Highlights:

  • Most of the cacao that is used in commercial chocolate comes from a hybrid bean, which is very highly caffeinated. 
  • Criollo cacao beans are what ceremonial grade cacao is made from, and is higher in theobromine, which is known to absorb more slowly and thus feels more grounding than caffeine.
  • Nicole and Shanna experienced their own cacao ceremony, and had some grounding, deep conversations on the state of the world right now.
