Plant medicine, my current love Cacao….

It might just be me, but I’m pretty sure there’s an increasing interest in plant medicine and what it can do for us.

As modern life pushes us to work more, buy more, do more, we’re all feeling the disconnection from our natural rhythms and nature. We’ve been pushed so far in the direction of consumerism and with it our rate of unhappiness has risen. Were all looking for a way back to contentment and its never going to come from more money or stuff. Our fast-paced world has put our most valuable possession at risk, our Earth. We can’t see past the monetary need of being too busy & needing something in convenience.
And with all this talk about destruction & climate failure all I can see around me is nature trying flourish, it’s trying to teach us, trying to reach out, trying to make us realize we are all connected, we all need to work together, regenerate each other, getting back to nature is the way out.

Plant medicines have been used for centuries in many cultures and are slowly making there way back to the western world. A tool used to remind us of our oneness & connection to nature. From its simplest form of eating local food which will nourish you in a way food shipped from 3000miles away won’t, to the more intense ayahusaca experiences in which many swear to see & speak with Mother Nature herself & are instantly heal from their past negativities. Homeopathy, aromatherapy, traditional chinese medicine, naturopathy……there are so many avenues. The one I’ve just been introduced to and am delving into is ceremonial grade cacao.

Cacao is a plant medicine from Guatemala. Cacao has been used for centuries as a shamanic healing tool rooted in helping to rebalance the energies within us, restore good health, connect and open us up. It has a way of soothing the nervous system & allowing you to be still, feeling & creating space, as I read somewhere ‘leading you to a door but not pushing you through it’ its gentle, subtle but powerful if you let it.

If you’ve been feeling a call back to nature, back to contentment, start learning, there’s so much out there.

& if the cacao intrigues you, we’ve another Cacao & Yoga ceremony coming up, reach out wed love to chat more about it.
