Benefits of Cacao
Cacao is a natural superfood that provides numerous health and spiritual benefits. It is rich in antioxidants, which help combat oxidative stress, improve heart health, and support overall well-being.
The presence of theobromine in cacao gently stimulates the heart, enhancing mental focus and promoting a sense of euphoria.
Furthermore, cacao contains essential minerals like magnesium and potassium, which aid in muscle function, reduce stress, and promote relaxation
On a spiritual level, cacao has been used for centuries in ceremonies to open the heart, deepen meditation, and foster a sense of connection with oneself and the universe. It is known to enhance emotional healing, increase feelings of love and compassion, and facilitate inner peace.

Delicious Ceremonial Ginger Cacao Recipe with Liam Browne
Ready to make a delicious ginger cacao drink?
Here's what you'll need and how to prepare it:
Ingredients:
Full Power Cacao (1 tablespoon per serving)
Oat Milk (or your preferred plant milk)
A knob of fresh ginger
Agave syrup (for sweetness)
Himalayan salt (a pinch)
Instructions:
Prepare the Cacao Paste: Begin by melting your Full Power Cacao in a pan over low heat. Add a small amount of oat milk to create a smooth paste. Stir continuously to prevent the cacao from burning.
Gradually Add Milk: Slowly add more oat milk, stirring until you have a smooth consistency. Remember, the key is to not bring the cacao to a boil, as this helps preserve its nutritional content.
Add Ginger: Grate a small knob of fresh ginger into the mixture. Ginger adds a warming spice and additional health benefits, like aiding digestion and adding a bit of fire to your drink.
Sweeten and Season: Add a splash of agave syrup to taste, and a pinch of Himalayan salt to balance the flavours.
Set Intentions: As you prepare your cacao, take a moment to set positive intentions for the day. The process of making cacao can be a mindful practice, infusing your drink with love and positive energy.
Finish and Enjoy: Heat the mixture gently until it's warmed through.
