Theobromine
A gentle plant compound that helps relax blood vessels to support circulation while supporting mood and a sense of calm alertness.
Se Luz Cacao Husk Tea is a rich, chocolatey infusion made from the outer husk of the cacao pod, gently dried and prepared as a soothing herbal tea. Naturally abundant in magnesium, theobromine, and antioxidant flavonoids, this tea supports hormone balance while offering a deeply grounding, restorative experience.
Magnesium helps relax the nervous system, ease menstrual cramps, and support healthy progesterone levels, essential for a balanced luteal phase and smoother cycles. Theobromine, a gentle mood-lifting compound, supports emotional balance and calm focus without overstimulation. Together with powerful antioxidants, cacao husk tea helps reduce oxidative stress that can disrupt hormonal harmony.
This tea invites the body to soften and unwind, making it ideal for evening rituals. It supports deeper sleep, eases PMS and luteal phase tension, and activates the relaxation response necessary for hormonal repair and restoration. A true nightly ritual that nourishes the womb and supports emotional clarity.
Our cacao husks are extensively tested to be free from cadmium and lead, ensuring a clean, safe, and high-quality tea you can trust for daily use.
Savor Se Luz Cacao Husk Tea as a sacred evening companion rooted in ancestral wisdom and designed to support hormonal balance, relaxation, and intuitive connection with every cup.

Pause · Breathe · Receive
Before your first sip, close your eyes. Take a breath. Set an intention. What does my body need today? What am I ready to receive?
As you drink, notice. How does your body feel? What emotions are arising? What is this plant helping you notice?
These plants are teachers. Their experience may change from day to day, just as you do. Rather than asking what you want from the plant, create space to receive what you need.
Listen. Notice. Receive.
May each cup hold you with warmth, nourish your body, and gently lift your spirit. This is your moment. Your pause. Your softness.
