                                            Unlock the magic of cacao!
Like a monthly ritual of its own, the algorithms keep serving up cacao ceremonies in my feed. They're not wrong to target me. Hardly a day goes by that I'm not "getting my magnesium" or "honoring my ancestors" who were chocolatiers. 
Since I've yet to click the button and check out one of these cacao circles, lo and behold -- one came to me!

Can’t make it or live too far? 
You can still join in. Connect with Jenny virtually. (https://www.jennydipasupil.com/about-jenny) She even has discount codes so you can order ceremonial cacao straight to your door. She’ll guide you through the experience and share all the benefits, from wherever you are.
Rooted in Amazonian and Mesoamerican traditions as “the food of the gods,” cacao offers more than just flavor—it offers bliss, thanks to compounds like anandamide, the “bliss molecule.” That chocolate craving? It starts with cacao, the minimally processed seeds inside cacao pods. It’s a natural mood booster that lifts your spirits, sharpens focus, and creates a calm, open state. Jenny will guide us through all of this as we experience cacao through gratitude and connection.
Please note, ceremonial cacao contains natural stimulants like caffeine and theobromine, which may affect those sensitive to caffeine or with chocolate allergies. The ceremony may also bring up strong emotions—please honor your own comfort and wellbeing throughout.
