We recommend mornings or early in the day, before breakfast. This supports a smoother energetic flow and allows time to integrate your experience. Effects are typically subtle and last 4–6 hours.

Yes, when done with care. Our mushrooms are organically cultivated in a licensed facility and tested for purity. We also use only the highest quality organic or wildcrafted herbs. Still, consult your doctor if you’re pregnant, on medication, or managing a mental health condition.

Always start with a lower dosage and gradually increase as needed. Please use extra discretion if taking medication.

People who are pregnant, breastfeeding, on SSRIs or psychiatric medication, or managing bipolar/schizophrenia should avoid micro-dosing unless advised otherwise by a qualified health professional.

We suggest reducing or pausing coffee while you explore cacao. Both are stimulants, but cacao works in a smoother, more holistic way. Many people find they no longer need coffee once they connect with the energy of cacao.

No. Many follow rhythms like 5 days on, 2 off, or every other day. Periodic breaks help reset the system and prevent tolerance.

Yes. Your body adapts quickly, so regular breaks are important. The medicine works best when used respectfully and rhythmically.

No, and that’s part of the beauty. One day might bring creativity and ease, another more introspection. The first time trying Cacao will be the strongest as your body and spirit adjust to the frequency of the medicine. The following days are less altering and each person will have their own experience. Some days feel stronger than others, given the amount of food you’ve eaten and what level of stress you may be under. Trust the plants and your body. Each day offers a new layer of awareness.

It usually means something deeper is surfacing to be seen or healed. Cacao and mushrooms can bring awareness to thoughts, emotions, or patterns we usually suppress. Instead of pushing it away, try to slow down, be curious, and treat yourself with compassion.

This really depends on your profession and sensitivity to the medicine. Some formulas are socially uplifting, while others are more meditative and introspective. In general, these are gentle micro ceremonies and should be treated with reverence and intention. It is up to you to tune in what is appropriate in your work space. However, many people find that microdosing is an incredible addition to all aspects of daily life. We recommend trying it out before, and exploring what feels best in your comfort zone.

Yes. Microdosing often deepens insight and complements therapy, somatic practices, or spiritual work. It may increase your capacity for reflection, presence, and emotional processing.

Integration looks different for everyone. Oftentimes meditation, breathwork, yoga and other mindfulness practices can be supportive after microdosing. It’s not about doing it “right” just being present and intentional. Spending time outside in nature is helpful after or between microdosing to remain in a heart-centered space and open to the healing coming through.

If you’re reflecting, noticing patterns, and making small shifts in your thoughts or behavior, you’re integrating. Even confusion or emotional release can be part of the process.

A simple journal works beautifully. Note your mood, energy, dreams, habits, and any synchronicities. Over time, patterns emerge and insights deepen.

Cacao is the pure, unprocessed form of chocolate that comes directly from the Theobroma cacao tree known by the ancient civilizations of Central and South America as the “food of the gods.” At Connect Chocolate, we work with cacao, which is crafted with reverence, intention, and integrity from seed to cup.

Unlike conventional chocolate, which is highly processed and often stripped of its natural healing compounds, cacao in its pure form retains its full spectrum of nutrients and alkaloids. Commercial chocolate is typically loaded with sugar, dairy, and additives designed more for flavor and shelf-life than for well-being.
