Heart Wide Open:A Cacao Ceremony of Love & Presence w/Ianthi

Heart Wide Open: A Cacao Ceremony of Love & Presence

Step into a Cacao Ceremony and discover why the sacred Theobroma Cacao plant was revered as a deity for centuries by the peoples of Mesoamerica. Prized for its nutritional and psychoactive properties, Cacao was so valuable that it was once used as currency.

This 100% pure, unprocessed, untempered, and unadulterated "real chocolate" is one of the most potent superfoods on the planet. A heart-opening plant medicine, Cacao acts as a cardiovascular stimulant and vasodilator, helping you soften into your heart and deeply connect with yourself and others.

The Cacao

Ianthi serves Keith’s Cacao, the original and world’s finest ceremonial-grade cacao. Sourced from non-hybridized under-canopy trees in the same Guatemalan coastal rainforests once favored by the Mayan, Aztec, Toltec, and Olmec civilizations, these beans are hand-selected, lightly toasted, and hand-peeled by local women before being ground and packaged—with nothing added and nothing removed.

The result? A high-vibrational, ceremonial-grade Cacao that supports personal growth, spiritual exploration, deep inspiration, and connection.

A Note on Ceremonial Cacao

Ceremonial Cacao is psychoactive but not psychedelic—it will not induce a "trip." You will remain fully embodied and present throughout the experience.

As Keith Wilson, founder of Keith’s Cacao, often said:
"Cacao will lead you to the door but will not push you through it."

Should you choose to step through, the Spirit of Cacao will gently guide your journey, ensuring that wherever you go, you do so with more love and less fear.
