🜃 How can Cacao help your work and creativity?

≋ Imagine a moment of clarity, calm and focus. That feeling when you’re simply at ease and in the moment. Also recall the sensation when you’ve started an idea you’re excited about and you’re in a state of flow. This is what cacao can feel like – focus, flow and vision.

🜃 One of its active ingredients, theobromine, increases energy and focus, but doesn’t have the same peak and dip effect of caffeine. It’s a slow release and the positive effects of cacao stay in the system for hours.

≋ Cacao is also rich in vitamins, antioxidants and minerals such as magnesium, which supports brain function.  

🜃 Cacao paired with meditation and intention setting can help you enter a healthy and centred mindset to process tasks, work flow and life. 

≋ I work with cacao at least 3 times a week, usually before I create or hold space. If I need space to work through blocks or resolve an idea, I sit with a cacao and mindfully process my intention and what I may need to aid my creative flow. Sometimes a block may not be even related to work, so cacao is there to help shine a light on what might be clouding my vision. 

🜃 The artwork in this post is an example of what I created after a ceremonial cacao – a playful take on my relationship with creativity and meditation. 

≋ I’ll be sharing more cacao posts soon, including my own home recipe.
