I had the honor to have Florencia Fridman from Cacao Laboratory at my studio to share with you a recipe mixing both our favorite herbs + cacao, a small ceremony with a meditation + sound and a cacao Q&A with where I got to ask Florencia things like:
-where does sacred practice involving cacao comes from
-what is the a ceremonial dose of cacao
-how to know which cacao to buy
and more,
I hope you guys enjoy this video, it was made with so much love and I had a magical time sharing with Florencia :)

How do I find friends like this 😭😭😭
Call in your tribe!! And until they show up IRL we're here virtually for you 🤍😊🙏🏽
Caro Arevalo ❤️
@@1sr0 that is what I wanted to say - the online tribe often amazes. but I wish you real life kindred spirts
This is something that I've been praying about, to find my tribe. But maybe a virtual community might be the new thing now in this new age. Y'all follow me on ig @thevaneezy let's unite 💕🌹🌹
It's so difficult to find like minded people in real life , but I hope we all keep lifting up each other's energies within our virtual tribe , I feel blessed to have found your channel and be a part of this community.
I am glad you addressed the issue of appropriation and giving due respect to the traditional people. Too many people run with the trendy. I am hoping that many of us understand what is going on today, and the the Earth is trying to find balance. We must change our ways. Thank you for sharing💕
@@ramon7286 thanks for the information. And yes, I agree, I pleased that the tribe started to get some money.
@@ramon7286 hi alejandro! thank you so much for your message in bringing awareness! Just wanted to clarify what I've learned about cacao and what the story behind this video was. I participated in a cacao ceremony back in 2018 for the first time and felt quite called to it, and after drinking cacao in ceremonies (held by florencia as the facilitator) and by myself for a year. I wanted to share about it on my youtube but as this isn't my native practice at all and I am no one to speak about cacao I went to the cacao practitioner I had been working with, Florencia Fridman and asked her if she'd join me in answering some questions and that's what this video is about 🤍 Florencia has been (and continues to be) an apprentice of Nana Marina Cruz for years. Nana is a Tz'utujil woman born and raised in the community. Nana holds cacao ceremonies and shares how cacao has been communed with in her tradition for years and it's one of the seeds the Tz'utujil see as a sacred seed and an essential seed to offer for the sacred fire. From your message I'm understanding this isn't right? Would love to understand more! Thank you.
Here's a video (which actually starts at minute 15) from an interview to Nana that I was recently watching were Nana shared more about cacao and it's sacredness in her community.

@@ramon7286 Do you think that you are entitled to decree who can sit in ceremony with this beautiful plant because of your genetics/training? Cacao doesn't belong to you, to the Mayans, or to any other particular group or culture, it is an offering to all of us by nature. As you said, since there is no traditional Mayan cacao ceremony, there isn't anything to appropriate here. I urge you to get out of your head and into your heart.
@@ramon7286 What is the Mayan way of working with cacao, and how can I learn more about it?
@@ramon7286 they sing to the cacao
Divine feminine energy. What is so sorely needed in the world right now. Thank you so much for this dear Goddess
Thank you precious Heart the understanding and the awareness of the divine feminine is most needed upon planet Earth at this time if we could all send that understanding that spirit that awareness that consciousness to the women of Iran and other places that have been oppressed by old religions and outdated paradigms of suppression so that Spirit of freedom and that Spirit of love opens all the hearts of male and female for the Divine Union and protects the people and the women especially of Iran and other countries.
This video means so much to me. I learned so much. Flolencia is so wise. I ONLY trust her about cacao. When they sang as they prepared the cacao I cried tears of love. So beautiful. I wish I had community like this. I cry when I hear them singing to the cacao. This is so beautiful
i love the notion or idea that the earth is resting and getting a break from us humans...but at the same time that understanding seems to suggest that once this is all over, we'll just go back to polluting the planet. The earth had its "break" and soon that break will be over. I HOPE humans will learn how to treat the planet better...I hope humans will learn to prioritize people over profit....to NOT continue the destructive habits we've been doing for decades...I hope this "break" won't just be a break, but a completely permanent, whole new lifestyle where humans choose to live more sustainably, where the healthcare system is just, where the food system emphasizes fair trade, organic, local, and sustainable.
You ladies are both such luvley creatures and I'm drawn deeply in by your authentic and genuine nature's ..I am drawn in by this sacrid practise of Cacao ...I will manifest it into my life...and am excited to see to feel to fully experience it's influence on all levels and from 7 directions...thank you both🌹💗🌹
Yes me too Mila. So powerful to think about this
This was beautiful to watch. I felt the love and started crying. I learned something new. Thanks for sharing this🙏🏼 sending love to all who reads this.
Me too!! 😭😭😭😢. So many tears. I healed so much watching this
I really appreciate that both of you are people of color and are bringing back the honor of the medicine remembering the sacred ways thank you sistars for rising in to your power

I got goosebumps watching your video,so relaxing. I have a morning routine where I draw a card from my animal medicine cards and meditate and drink tea. I will start singing over my tea while I prepare it.
I've been making hot chocolate with cacao.. not knowing the ancient significance behind it. This is inspiring!
Thank you girls! I just had my first cerimonial cacao and I chose to do it with you, I felt so connected to the plant, I sang the song with you and felt my heart overflowing with love 💗 thank you so much, you were my guide through this experience. I appreciate you ❤️😘
I enjoyed the beautiful singing with the sounds of cutting and preparing the cacao. You both remind me of times when I was abundant, around more open-minded friends. Thank you for sharing the ceremony. 🤎🤎
Why doesn’t this have 20 MM views. It’s so healing. I cry so much watching this. It’s like a ceremony watching these eternal wise angels. My hero’s.
It's so cool seeing your message as today we recorded an updated version, 3.5 years after! Can't wait to share it :)
Thanks so much for holding space for us new to this beautiful time honoured tradition

How beautiful! Thank you for sharing this. The sound of her voice makes me smile.
Thank you so much for this deeply moving offering.
Watching this right now, again. So powerful. Thank you for this video.
Precious hearts, thank you for sharing your beautiful cacao ceremony. Thank you for holding us space of sacredness, and for opening the heart to the remembrance of the love of mother Gaia or of pachamama, are beautiful home Earth and all of the ingredients from her that make up our bodies. I am reminded how long I have drink coffee with just the attitude of accelerating my physical being and my brain to start my day without giving thanks, to the water to the coffee Bean to all of the wonderful ingredients and the benefits that it has to the body, and now I am offering to my body the cacao to my coffee and just allowing whatever experience comes from that to be in my morning to pray my day with an intention of more light more love more peace more joy, I send you both my deepest heartfelt appreciation for sharing your experience through this video. Be blessed and be well always.
Thank you for such a loving and generous gift of this video, a deep bow to you both!
I enjoyed this so much.
Gracias a las 2 por tan maravilloso ritual 🙏🙏🙏♥️

I really enjoyed this. 🙏 I have been looking for a video on personal cacao ceremonies for weeks now. But there aren't that many, especially not as informative as this one. It's nice to get insight in how others sit and work with cacao. ❤

Dear Caro, thank you so much for your many inspirations you give to the world through your videos.
Especially the Cacao Ritual spoke to me very much.
It took me a while to find Cacao in one piece in Germany, but yesterday it arrived in the mail
and today I took the time to enjoy a cup. It was a special experience, a treat for the soul!
Beautiful ceremony thank you both for your light and love
i made one cacao for me and it's definitely feels like cacao ceremony, thank you so much

Gracias gracias gracias . Profundamente agradecida e inspirada por ustedes dos bellas almas 🧡🙌🏼
Un abrazo desde Chile
The Aztecs would mix psilocybin mushrooms with cacao as part of their ceremonies
What are those type of mushrooms please? I have Reishi and Chaga, could I use those?
@@Froglet1968 psilocybin mushrooms are magic mushrooms. They are psychoactive and were used to induce altered states of conscience in healing rituals and ceremonies. I’m not sure if you can use those reishi or changa, all I know is that they specifically used “liberty cap” psilocybin mushrooms.
@@Froglet1968 🤣
@Ah My Goddess thank you so much, that's very helpful.
@@theethniccleanser1385 Where can I get liberty cap mushrooms from, and what are the effects when taken with cacao?
Thank you beautiful souls for this amazing experience! 🙏🏾😊❤
Such a beautiful video. Such soft yet powerful feminine energy and love. Your openness to receive is so sweet to see. I love how you said cacao says just take the first step... you dont have to have it figured out. I needed that message today.
What a lovely chat to listen while drinking cacao
Thank you ! That is a beautiful video 🙏🏻
