Did you know that our Cacao Nectar elixir is an herbal supplement formulated to support the heart and one’s mood? This elixir is great for those transitioning in or out of relationships, as it will help to keep one’s heart open energetically while supporting healthy levels of serotonin and dopamine. It’s also great for those who are trying to live more from their heart space in everyday life. Cacao Nectar contains raw cacao which is known to be a slightly psychoactive heart medicine that releases endorphins. This blend also contains hawthorn berry which is often taken to stimulate blood flow from the heart, as well as rose petal powder; an herb that gently supports the nervous system. Cacao Nectar also contains two powerful plant medicines that support mood; damiana leaf; an aphrodisiac that supports healthy levels of serotonin, and mucuna bean; an herb with an active constituent that supports healthy levels of dopamine.
