About Cacao Reconnects
WE HAD A CALLING…
"Felix and I both had this burning passion for the medicine of cacao even before we began our time together as a family. Before our concrete vision and the founding of our company emerged, we had both worked in different ways to spread raw cacao in our own little worlds.
HEART'S VISION…
During our original vision to make the long-hidden secrets of raw cacao accessible again, a composition emerged as if by magic, featuring the medicinal mushrooms from TCM that we have loved for years. For us, this combines pleasure and health.
which addresses and strengthens the unity between body and mind.
Through our work, we want to remind you of the potential within you.
In this process of re-membering, our powerful composition of raw cocoa and medicinal mushrooms can be a miraculous companion and supporter.
Reconnecting with ourselves and with our fellow human beings – that's what ShroomCacao stands for. Information about medicinal mushrooms: here
COCOA
Our individual stories…
Lea's experience: “Real, natural cocoa is one of the most nourishing means for me and probably also one of the strongest tools that I use to ground myself - to arrive, to feel this deep, living earth substance within me.
The plant helps me to sink into myself and perceive my essence.
Felix's experience: “This ancient medicine came to me when I was pretty much caught up in the hamster wheel of society and was burning out inside.
Since then, this grandmotherly and grandfatherly presence has accompanied me, strengthened me, and gently pointed me to aspects that I can examine for myself and bring into authentic alignment with my values. Looking back, with Kakao, I embarked on a journey from being at the mercy of external circumstances to conscious empowerment and healthy self-determination .
MEDICINAL MUSHROOMS
Lea's experience: They have been with me for many years, and for most of our journey, I was inspired by the perception of these properties. I feel enormously supported by medicinal mushrooms in many aspects and processes. It's as if a delicate yet very powerful veil is weaving itself into my body-mind system, illuminating me into my most authentic, powerful version.
Felix's experience: My mother first introduced me to medicinal mushrooms as vitalizing little helpers. The more I learned about the individual mushrooms, their origins, effects, and nutrient profiles, the more enthusiastic I became. I finally integrated them into my life as a permanent part of my life when I was almost 20. I feel like they support my system exactly where and only as much as it's needed, creating a healthy balance.
For me, it's perfect for juggling the different areas of my life (family, career, and sport) with joy and ease - effectively developing and truly utilizing my potential.
OUR COMMON PATH
After years of knowing each other, Lea and I were able to get closer to each other and immediately immerse ourselves in working together at our events.
With our first Ecstatic Dance together, combined with a cacao ceremony, the love and passion for this medicine that we had previously lived on our own multiplied into a shared, previously hidden mission.
We were and are both very curious about how it can work, as man and woman, as a couple and family partner, for each other, to bring our unique qualities to the best possible result - to explore how we can elevate ourselves instead of keeping each other down.
At a Biohacker Summit a short time later, our vision suddenly became crystal clear: The combination of ceremonial cacao and the medicinal mushrooms we love so much must be
out into the world and made accessible to as many people as possible.
We would like to support both the spiritual and the sports and health
oriented groups of people together - connecting two worlds.
MAYA MUNAY
Together with Maya Munay, we coined the term co-creation – because we both celebrate our unique qualities, which we bring together in our cocoa community and maximize.
We personally find the Maya Munay project to be a very honest one.
Maya Munay feels holistically thoughtful to us -
Our beloved cocoa plant is treated with honor, and cocoa farmers are treated as equals. The focus is on mutual respect.
We're incredibly happy to be weaving a chocolatey future together. Now for the cocoa itself: The ACRIOALLADO FINE COCOA FROM VENEZUELA blends incredibly smoothly with our creation. We think it's probably the most harmonious variety ever considered for our Shroom Cacao.
All we can say is: see for yourself :)
