Cacao traditions
Cacao and the traditional art of ceremony has been around for thousands of years, originating way back to Mayan and Aztec traditions in Central and South America. Throughout history there has always been an infatuation and love for Cacao either when served as a drink, or in a spiritual practice for ceremonial purposes with intent to awaken, and and to ask for creative guidance and healing.
