Thank you! You’re right. Nothing wrong with margaritas or hiding in the closet watching netflix. I just meant, when my best friend needed my help, I wasn’t going to do those things. What you’re saying is precisely the wisdom of the Cacao flower elixir. ; )

Just listened to your yesterday podcast on the cacao flower. Have heard you speak briefly before, and am most impressed with your self. A beautiful energy you personify. Seems we also share a similar spiritual path. Curious about the retreats you lead in Costa Rica, and wonder if you lead tours/retreats to India?

I don’t think going to have a margarita or hiding in your closet if the world feels overwhelming is selfish. One doesn’t have to conflate self care with the needs of others to be valid. Your own self care for its own sake is a worthy and necessary endeavor.

Thank you Katie for such a thorough explanation of how using flower essences to break up obsolete patterning might be experienced on a physical/emotional/mental/spiritual level as a healing crisis. I have just begun understanding this myself and your insights clarified it for me.
While I was pondering the unusual growth habit of the cacao flower and pods from the trunk of the tree rather than the branches, it came to me that perhaps this is how they develop their abilities to support us, as they grow from the stable part of the tree, the trunk.
The trunk serves as the bridge between the roots in the Earth (the physical) and the branches in the air (the spiritual), providing strength and flexibility to weather wind and storms, channels for water/nutrients and Earth energy, growing taller and wider as the tree transforms, matures, and spreads taller and wider.
Perhaps the cacao flowers inherit these properties from the trunks and provide a similar service to us as trunks do for trees – assisting in our grounding, stabilization, flexibility, and bringing awareness of our requirements/nutrients/priorities to support or personal growth and spiritual transformation?
