LIVING FROM THE CACAOSITA PERSPECTIVE

Three weeks ago I took the big step of launching the Tantric Dinner Experience publicity. Let me tell you that, the process of this idea is very interesting because it’s been in my mind for many years. In 2022, it began to take form and it became real in 2023 - with friends + at the end of the year I carried out this experience in two retreats-, until finally, this year, 2024, 2 days ago, I did it as an open event. 

When I was thinking about how to offer it, I had the idea of sharing a webinar called “ALL in ALL”.

Alimentaccion is a combination of Tantra alchemy, Cooking, and Cacao. I felt the necessity to explain it. How is it all connected? 

I scheduled this webinar in the same week as my Ecstatic Dance, the Tantric Dinner Experience and in which I am making more Cacao paste for two retreats I have this weekend + an important meeting for the potential incorporation of someone to my team (for the first time !) + as if this was not enough, in exactly 10 days I’ll have my Vision quest (I’ll tell you more about this soon)

Suddenly I felt that everything was happening at the same time, which is true, and it was difficult for me to get down to earth and be able to transmit it, that is, I suddenly felt that I couldn't I not find the energy space to be able to show, that is, create this webinar this space and at the same time be promoting and sustaining physical spaces.

So on the day of the event, I woke up to a lot of controversy inside me, with a great call to say, maybe it's not good at this moment. Maybe it's not the best action, or maybe I don't know, I didn't feel like doing the webinar, and a part of me, that part. From my mind, I told myself what? Once we propose something, it has to be done, it has to be carried out and that's it!

On the one hand, I quite agree with that…

On the other hand, at this moment in my life, I greatly honor the organic and cyclical development of things.

A month ago, I started with my  #hearttalks, the talks where I prepare Cacao to live and have a heart talk with entrepreneurs, who dedicate their lives to the unique vision that they’re holding by literally following the call from their hearts- 

Though It is a very personal process, I’d like to share this newsletter with you for two important reasons:  I am learning that perhaps not all the ideas that come up to me are always the most appropriate, or perhaps, that the fact that we have a call from the heart it does not always imply that you have to follow it immediately. We talked about this last week in the #hearttalk with Mayu. 

All along with my life, feeling a call from somewhere or something has led me to move quickly and do it now. But recently, in this new process where I‘m sustaining the Cacao  Medicine, I’ve felt that Cacao is guiding me and transforming my life into doing -almost- exactly the opposite.

And I'm not saying that you have to expect everything to happen out of a sudden, but to distinguish which ones are calls to take instant actions/decisions and which calls are inviting you to travel through space or journey towards that 'destiny'.

I think that this is the great pearl, the great gift. Today I want to share this with you because I feel that it is a gift that is mainly showing me how to maintain a path with Cacao.

Deciding to hold the energy - walking it - implies responsibility. Responsibility means having the ability to respond. This means that this is that practical wisdom of understanding at what moment the movement needs to be 'carried out' by me and at what moment of movement it is going to take me.

This implies trust.

This implies compassion.

This implies presence.

This implies openness.

This is Love.

That’s why I decided to postpone the AlLL IN AlLL WEBINAR. That call is the call to walk, the transit of that energy in my body.

Last night when I was guiding the Ecstatic Cacao I saw what it's like to hold something while things move.

That is being alive.

I am so, so excited to share Cacao, it embodies this metaphor for life so well!  It is, literally, the bridge to my heart, to what is true for me.

Deciding to take the Cacao journey, what is true for me would begin to unfold, in a much more organic rhythm. And, as if we were unfolding a piece of paper, I could see the marks, the wrinkles, what was left inside. Cacao is a medicine that accompanies me and supports me to do all this and see this with Love!

When I say that it supports me to see this with Love, I repeat, I do not deny that it can be uncomfortable and painful. Well, I can see those wrinkles (I see very clearly when I’ve hurt someone and me with behaviors that may not be the most beneficial). Seeing it with love means feeling capable of being able to sustain the transition for that reason!

Cacao is love.

Love is Presence.

To be present is to be open.

Being open allows us to see with compassion.

ALL in ALL.

Compassion is accompanying passion, and accompanying that fire is intensity, it is being present with what burns and what is transformed!

Once again, I am very grateful to walk with Cacao who leads me every day in other ways to navigate my own process/life. 

 I wanted to write you this letter today to share this gift with you.

It is a realization that touched my heart and that I deeply wanted to share. My call to take action with the ALL IN ALL WEBINAR turned into the Call To Walk where I discovered that ALL IN ALL is alive when I share the spirit of Cacao and let it in.

Thanks for reading me this far!

I love you.
