Feeling disconnected from your heart is painful. Ancient Peruvian wisdom is here to help.

Disconnected from your body, from the Earth, from your purpose, and — most painfully — from your own heart, you feel trapped in the "mental cage."

Overthinking, feeling flat and sometimes numb, high-functioning but spiritually hungry, you’re like a spectator in your own life.

Cut from your emotional body, you live from the neck up.

You have lost your way trying to process your emotions and connect with the spirit world, leaving you feeling lonely, even when you are with people.

You’ve optimized your career, your fitness, and your schedule — but you’re not in tune with your higher self.

Modern life has left you high-functioning, but heart-dry.

You feel the call to lead and hold healing spaces, but you’re tired of the surface-level wellness world. You’re looking for roots, not more information.

Most of us spend our entire day trapped in our heads — analyzing, worrying, and rushing.

At Aynua, we help you drop back into your heart.

Whether through a daily cup of our sacred Peruvian cacao or our deep-dive shamanic path, we help you remember how to live in balance with yourself, and the world around you.

Ayni: The Sacred Art of Reciprocity

In the Quechua language of Peru, Ayni means "today for you, tomorrow for me." It represents the highest principle of reciprocity within ancestral communities.

Every Aynua purchase supports land restoration and family owned farms. We don't just "source" cacao; we partner with the people who care for this sacred medicine. Follow the journey of your cacao from ancient regenerative farms in Peru, to your doorstep.

Diana Deer Hawk of Aynua helping a woman relax with essential oil

In the ancestral Peruvian way of living, “nervous system regulation” and “cognitive clarity” was naturally provided by a strong connection with Mother Earth.

For thousands of years, cacao has been revered as one of the most sacred medicines among the indigenous communities of Peru. Guided by nature, you can now move from head to heart, so you can lead your community with integrity.

“Diana & Alku are guardians of the sacred, guides on the path of reconnection to oneself, and to the mysteries of cacao. I could feel the benevolent energy of cacao surrounding them, amplifying their ability to guide others toward profound inner transformation.”
