Cacao + cold ❄️

It started like this:

A great friend of mine Brendan McGurgan sent me a link.

In it, an acclaimed scientist, and herbal expert, Simon Mills was talking on the Diary of a CEO podcast about the medicinal super-powers of dark chocolate. In the clip, Simon talked about how dark chocolate can massively improve our brain, gut and heart health.

Watch the clip.

The discussion then moved to how dark should the chocolate be? Very. And then the conversation moved to the purest of dark chocolate - cacao.

This is where things get really interesting. Not only does cacao improve our heart health, the circulation of blood around the body increases gently. That makes us feel relaxed, meditative, open and even more loving.

This is why I drink ceremonial cacao most days. It helps me feel great.

This is why we also include it in our events.

Would you like to experience the calming, and restorative, effects of the darkest, purest chocolate?

Join Josie, and myself, this Thursday at 6pm at the Green Room in Dublin city centre for cacao-infused breathwork.

It’s a chance to drink cacao mindfully, being guided through a ceremonial meditation. And then to enjoy some blissful breathing.

That’s not all…

The day after, on Friday 22 August, I will be joined by a small group of brave souls from Ireland, the UK and Scotland for our ice bath teacher training.

People are often fearful of the cold.

I understand why:

It’s difficult, it’s often shocking, it’s uncomfortable and it can be intimidating.

I get all of that.

But, in this part of the world, it’s also unavoidable.

For months and months, we are faced with howling winds and freezing rain.

So, why not learn to use the cold as a force for good in our lives?

When we do, the benefits are nearly endless:

❄️ We learn to deal masterfully with pressure and stress
❄️ Our bodies become stronger and healthier
❄️ Our minds become sharper, calmer and more focused
❄️ We become more resilient
❄️ Levels of pain go down
❄️ Inflammation goes down
❄️ Our levels of energy increase
❄️ Our immunity improves
❄️ And much more

If you get into the cold already, and want to get more from the experience, then this training is for you.

If you feel you need all of these benefits in your life, then this training is for you.

If you are scared, but determined, to use the cold as a force for good in your life, then this training is for you.

Now is your chance.

Be brave.

Find out more.

Or, just send me a message and I'll send you all the information.

By the way, this is the last time I will be teaching ice bath training for at least another year.

So, that’s my week ahead:

Cacao + cold.

Can’t wait! 🙏
