"I have really enjoyed working with cacao this year—thanks to you for introducing me and for supplying such a quality brand! I had such a heart-opening experience in your cacao ceremony and a much-needed release of energy. Cacao is such a sweet plant medicine, and you are such a loving space holder and shaman. These sacred gatherings and ceremonies are so powerful!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

"I wasn’t sure what to expect from the cacao ceremony, and I hadn’t anticipated having what ended up being such a heart-opening experience. I felt so held and understood—everything was so gentle and perfect. It was as if Maryandra was playing a piano; every movement and verbal expression she shared made me feel safe to open emotionally. 10/10 would do this over and over again. She was born into intuitively feeling raw energy, and that’s something extremely special—not something I ever really come across."
– Gelsina, Yoga Teacher & Artist
"Maryandra is a wonderful, natural-born leader. She guided the flow of the cacao ceremony to be fluid and open, which gave way for a very magical, grounding, and heart-opening experience. The closeness and connection between all of us in the group while the ceremony was happening and when it was finished was so rich in love. Maryandra is a very special woman who is able to nurture while holding safe space. This makes for a beautiful, gentle, and yet powerful experience when she leads ceremonies. I’m so grateful for her existence in this world."
– Anna, Midwife & Doula

"I want to say 'thank you' again. The ceremony was such a sensory treat. I really got out of my head and into my senses. It was probably the least anxious I've felt in weeks."
