Understanding Costa Rica's Cacao Ceremonies

Have you ever been curious about one of Costa Rica's most special traditions? Let us introduce you to the world of cacao ceremonies, a practice that’s way more than just drinking hot chocolate! This ancient custom, originally central to the cultures of Mesoamerica, has been recently revived in Costa Rica, changing more than just the way we appreciate chocolate.
Known as a powerful plant medicine, cacao is used in ceremonies to promote healing and personal growth. It's a time to slow down, enjoy the fullness of life, and create deep connections with the earth, oneself, and others. And Costa Rica is a great location to experience it.
