Nourish Yourself Gently
Sometimes self-care is as simple as a sweet little something made with love and intention. These No-Bake Cacao Coconut Bliss Balls are grounding, chocolatey, and easy to make—perfect for a mindful snack, post-practice treat, or a little energy boost between clients.
Cacao Coconut Bliss Balls Recipe
Ingredients:
• 1½ cups desiccated coconut (plus extra for rolling)
• ¼ cup raw cacao powder
• ¼ cup coconut cream
• 2–3 tbsp maple syrup (adjust to taste)
• A pinch of cardamom
• A pinch of sea salt
• 1 scoop of your favourite protein powder
• Optional: 4–6 soft medjool dates (if using a food processor)
Instructions:
If using dates, blend them first in a food processor until smooth.
Add remaining ingredients and pulse until a sticky dough forms.
Roll into small balls and coat in extra coconut.
Chill in the fridge for 1 hour.
Enjoy with tea, a moment of quiet, or after a grounding walk.
Self-care tip: While rolling, infuse each ball with a little intention—peace, clarity, joy, or whatever your body and spirit are calling for.
