No... you do not need to have cacao to participate.

If you’re feeling curious and just want to learn, listen, and explore the wisdom first, you're absolutely welcome to join. You can receive the teachings, watch the daily videos, and begin understanding the ritual without having cacao in hand.

That said, this experience is most powerful when you're able to sit with cacao during the 5 days.

Cacao isn't just something we learn about, it’s something we feel. The warmth, the softness in the body, the gentle heart-opening effect… these are embodied experiences. Having cacao with you allows you to move beyond information and into direct experience and relationship.

After you register, Judy will share trusted recommendations for where you can purchase high-quality ceremonial cacao, whether from a local health food store near you or from curated online sources.

Come as you are. Start where you are. The ritual will meet you there. ✨

That’s completely okay.

Life happens, and this journey is meant to support you, not pressure you.

Each day’s teaching will be delivered straight to your inbox, and you can watch the videos at your own pace. If you miss a day, you can just return to that email and video when you’re ready. There’s no falling behind.

In fact, many who have been part of the challenge have chosen to rewatch the videos multiple times. The wisdom often lands differently each time you listen, especially as you begin practicing with cacao.

This isn't about perfection.
It’s about presence.

You’ll have access to the emails and can revisit the teachings as often as you like, allowing the ritual to unfold in your timing.

Pure, ceremonial-grade cacao is considered a nutrient-dense superfood.

It’s rich in essential minerals like magnesium (which supports relaxation and nervous system health), iron, potassium, and zinc. It also contains powerful antioxidants that support heart health and overall vitality.

Cacao naturally contains compounds such as theobromine... a gentle, longer-lasting stimulant that increases blood flow and oxygen to the brain without the sharp spikes and crashes often experienced with coffee. Many people experience improved focus, a lifted mood, and a sense of calm clarity.

It also supports the production of neurotransmitters linked to well-being and emotional balance, which is one of the reasons it's been revered by the ancients and referred to as a “heart-opening” plant.

That said, every body is different. If you're pregnant, highly sensitive to stimulants, or have a medical condition (particularly related to the heart or blood pressure), it’s always wise to consult with your healthcare provider before introducing something new.

For most people, when consumed in its pure, minimally processed form, cacao can be a wildly nourishing, supportive addition to a balanced lifestyle.
