This apprenticeship will guide those wanting to incorporate Cacao and Indigenous wisdom into their practice and share these traditions with others. It is a space to learn, share, and grow on the path toward living life from the heart.
Receive the understanding of Cacao on a physical and energetic level. We will learn about ourselves in the process of learning the plant spirit of Cacao.
Touch upon the history of Cacao, its social impact, and physical benefits.
Explore the traditional way of using Cacao in ritual and ceremony, the preparation process of ceremonial Cacao paste, how to prepare your own sacred Cacao beverage, sacred songs to sing while making the Cacao, and the process of a ceremony (the sequence of how Florencia shares Ceremony).Deepen our understanding of the Mayan sacred calendar (for personal use only)
This is not a certified course—it is an apprenticeship where Florencia will share all that has been shared with her through oral tradition, ceremonies, experiences with this path, and self-study.
This 9-month mentorship experience led by Florencia Fridman and assisted by elders and guides aims to support visionaries and leaders to bring ancient wisdom into the modern world. We honor and bring reverence to the ancient traditions and wisdom holders of thousands of years while also finding our own unique voice to become the leaders that we were born to be.
Cacao is a sacred plant that guides us deeper into our truth, dissolving the blockages that are separating us from our highest potential. Many Indigenous communities all over Mesoamerica have used Cacao as a sacred beverage, connecting us with the divinity that resides within us. We follow in their footsteps.
