The magic of 8 Within
You attract what you are; not what you want.
So when you feel clear, connected and aligned with a higher purpose, your life just flows with meaning and clarity.
But in today’s noisy, soul-numbing world, finding that connection to your higher self can feel impossible.
By harnessing the power of ancient plant medicines, 8 Within’s range of mind-elevating remedies quickly bring you back to your true self… one sip or drop at a time.
DOCTOR & HERBALIST FORMULATED
We're founded by a doctor-herbalist, so it's no surprise we’re obsessed with fusing science with ancient traditions. You can trust our elixirs are based on science, but elevated by plant alchemy.
HANDMADE IN SMALL BATCHES
Our focus is on giving you the very best, and good things take time. That's why all our cacao elixirs and tinctures are handmade in very small batches and released once a month. Once they’re gone, they’re gone until... a new batch drops the next month.
ETHICAL ETHOS
Cacao isn't chocolate, it's medicine for the soul. So, we make ours using ethical practices and reverence. We pay Peruvian farmers fairly so they can afford to use practices that give back to the community and preserve the biodiversity of the region.
Let customers speak for us
I thought this was the best cacao I have ever tasted . I served it up at my yoga event and everyone asked about it . It was divine. Ifey was also so helpful in helping me with the dosage and gives such a great customer experience you can see and feel she really puts so much love into her brand. I have recommended 8 within now to others as it was recommended to me. I will be buying again !
have taken 7 different cacaos for last 2 years consuming it daily and 8within is simply a level above in helping my meditation and you can feel the intensity almost within minutes
Absolute heaven in a mug! Cloud Nine is absolutely delicious. The hints of cherry sweetness, means I don’t have to add anything else. (Unless I really want to!) I love this one for my morning wake up, especially for days when I need more energy. I also love it as part of my menstrual cycle. Those days before and the first few days of bleeding, when I get some cramps, it’s an absolute saviour! It’s like it directly soothes my uterus. Just beautiful!
The first sip always accompanied with OMG!!!
I feel calmer and more grounded with drinking Inner Buddha.Thank you so much 😍
A perfect way to kickstart the day!
I’ve been starting my mornings with this high quality cacao blend and it’s been great. The added mushroom extracts give it a powerful edge - I noticed a real boost in focus and clarity. It tastes rich and smooth and I love knowing it supports both my body and brain. Would highly recommend!!
I never knew about the amazing cacao and plant healing power. i am so thankful
8WIthin found me. I love the morning ritual and i feel it is softening the hard wiring of my brain. i am calmer, less rigid and narrow. Can see things wider.......
A million thank-yous.
Wow, I’m absolutely blown away by this cacao from 8within! The Inner Depths - Pure High Tryptamine Ceremonial Cacao has taken my cacao ritual to a whole new level. First off, the size is incredible, offering a generous 280g bag – twice the size of their other cacao elixir bags.
The moment you open the bag, you’re hit with the purest, most rich, and earthy aroma. You can tell this is high-quality, ceremonial-grade cacao. The high levels of tryptamine really do seem to make a difference. It’s not just a drink; it’s an experience. There’s an almost immediate sense of mental clarity and emotional calm that settles in, helping me push past limiting beliefs and really rewire my brain for positivity.
It’s so easy to make – just a few minutes, and you’ve got yourself a deeply nourishing cacao drink. The taste is smooth and deep, with a gentle richness that isn’t overpowering. I truly believe this cacao has a special power that other varieties don’t have, and it’s been such a beautiful addition to my daily routine.
The price is absolutely worth it, considering the quality and the benefits I’ve been experiencing. Highly recommend for anyone who’s looking for a cacao that offers more than just a tasty treat – it’s an energetic and mental reset in a cup. Truly amazing.
I find 8Within Cacao beautiful but then Ifey sourced this stunner.
It is deeply grounding and it makes you feel like you are beaming sunshine from the inside.
Working with this cacao is clearing my busy mind and for me that is key during these dark, winter months.
Thanks Ifey for sourcing xx
Absolutely love this cacao. Using daily with intention and my meditations have gone so deep. So good I got 6 bags in case they go out of stock!
It's so decadent! I tried the ceremonial dose the first time and I was buzzing all day. Super focused and happy. I had half the next day and still felt amazing. Definitely buying more!
I am utterly obsessed with this blend! The addition of cherry is so wonderful and I find that my mood is improved when I drink this cacao. Not only from the benefits of this elixir but by partaking in the ritual each morning. I adore this brand - and its founder!
I only just discovered 8 within and I'm obsessed! It's become a morning ritual for me and I will be keeping up the habit. I don't think it's a coincidence that I've been feeling happier and lighter since the happiness and intuition elixirs entered my life :)
I have a sweet tooth so I tend to blend plant milk with two small dates before heating and adding the cacao and a little maple syrup. Tastes delicious!
I am obsessed with these elixirs and this is my second batch I have ordered. I love my morning ritual with these amazing Elixers. Looking forward to stocking up on more including happiness, take action and brilliance xx
This cacao is the best I’ve ever tried. It’s clearly made with love and every flavour is delicious. Definitely recommend it!
LOVE the happiness flavour and the feeling with intuition 💖💖💖

Cacao's mood transforming power is mainly down to a mild stimulant called theobromine. Theobromine boosts blood flow around your body, making you feel more alive and energised. Cacao also contains feelgood compounds (phenylethylamine, tryptophan, tryptamine and indirect cannabinoids). They hit key brain receptors, triggering the release of serotonin, dopamine and anandamide - the body's bliss chemicals. And just like that, you feel amazing.
We created our elixirs to be drunk when you need to shift into a specific frame of mind, but you can also drink them daily as an all-natural way to stay energised and feel amazing. But keep in mind that it's best to have no more than 40g (a ceremonial dose) in a day to avoid overstimulation.
It's best to consult your doctor or other healthcare practitioner to check how safe it is for you to use cacao and herbs during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Cacao can interact with a class of antidepressants called MAOIs and may interact with other types of medication. It's best to consult your doctor or other healthcare practitioner before taking cacao and herbs if you are on medication or have any medical conditions.
While cacao is known to have many great benefits and different herbs are traditionally used to treat a wide variety of medical conditions, 8 Within's elixirs are food products that are not intended to cure any condition or replace standard medical care.
