Feel More Peaceful & Harmonious with Ritual Cacao

In the UK, Mental Health Awareness Week runs from 15th to 21st May 2023, and this is an important time to raise awareness about the importance of looking after our mental health and wellbeing. With less stigma now attached to mental health, as let’s face it we’ve all gone a little wayward in recent years, May is the perfect month and time to check in, and tune in to what you may really need.

It's essential to remember that looking after your mental health is just as crucial as looking after your physical health. Taking care of your mental health can help you feel happier, more relaxed, and more productive. It can also help you cope better with stress, build stronger relationships, and improve your overall quality of life.

A natural way to support yourself through challenges, is by incorporating ceremonial-grade Cacao into our everyday lives and daily practice, as research has found that participants who drink high-flavanol hot chocolate twice a day, had twice as many stem cells in their circulation compared to the people who drank the low-flavanol chocolate.

Ceremonial-grade Cacao is a type of chocolate that is specifically grown, harvested, and processed for use in traditional ways. It is believed to have a higher concentration of theobromine and other beneficial compounds than regular chocolate, making it a potent tool for promoting mental and physical wellbeing.

Here are some ways that ceremonial-grade Cacao can support our mental health and general wellbeing:

Reduces stress and anxiety

Ceremonial-grade Ritual Cacao contains compounds that promote relaxation and reduce stress and anxiety. When we drink cacao mindfully and with intention, we can tap into its calming properties and soothe our nervous system.

Mood enhancing

Cacao contains compounds that stimulate the production of endorphins and other "feel-good" neuro-transmitters in the brain. When we drink cacao, we can experience a sense of euphoria, relaxation, and joy.

Boosts cognitive function and creativity

Cacao contains compounds that promote blood flow to the brain, which can enhance cognitive function, concentration, and creativity. When we drink cacao, we may feel more alert, focused, and inspired.

Supporting spiritual and emotional healing

Ceremonial-grade Cacao has been used for centuries in traditional healing practices as a tool for spiritual and emotional healing. When we drink Cacao with intention and in a sacred space, we can connect with our inner wisdom, release emotional blockages, and experience deep healing.
