Cacao as Teacher: Finding Peace in Chaotic Times with Bird Mejia

In this heart-centered episode, I sit down with medicine woman Bird Mieha, who works with the sacred plant of cacao. Together, we dive into the rich history of cacao, exploring how our ancestors once drank it and how this ancient medicine continues to open hearts today.

 

Bird guides us through the beauty of cacao ceremony, including a gentle cacao meditation, and shares wisdom on how this practice can help us regulate our nervous systems in the midst of chaotic times. We talk about the power of pause, the importance of returning to peace, and how cacao can support us in reconnecting with ourselves and each other.

 

This episode is an invitation to slow down, sip with intention, and remember the healing power of the heart.
