Theobroma Cacao is a powerful vehicle to bring conversations of unification and awareness as chocolate is a common understanding of love for most cultures all over the world.

This sacred plant has so much to teach us about unconditional love and how to embody this frequency.

We will take a journey through the guidance of Theobroma Cacao to understand how this ancient plant supported many of the ancient civilizations of Mesoamerica, the development and global distribution of Cacao, how it shifted from a sacred plant into a commoditized product. Although it has been understood that Cacao is a sacred food for the Mayas, Aztecs, Olmecs, and Toltecs (within other ancient cultures), we see how the world is coming back to understand the sacred of Theobroma Cacao. This sacred plant can support our process of the development of the new story being written for humanity and our planet.

Florencia shares insight from indigenous elders especially the Mayas of Guatemaya and Sapara Nation of Ecuador.

This course also shares about reciprocity, the importance of offerings, how to connect with our creative expression, deepening our connection to the dream world, and through the language of Cacao- the language of love, we can cultivate a more harmonious relationship with out sacred Mother Earth.
