Nicky grew up in Dublin. Her father helped spark her interest in cooking with his creative skills in the kitchen. She went on to study Culinary Arts in a holistic nutrition school in California. This professional training focused on cooking delicious nourishing food for optimum health. As Nicky is also a qualified nutritional therapist with the Irish Institute of Nutrition and Health, she dedicates her time to preparing dishes that can be adapted to everybody's health requirements. Her food is not only bursting with nutrients, it tastes delicious too. Nicky started the fresh food deli in The Hopsack Health Store and worked as the head chef there for 3.5 years.

Since then she decided to go on an adventure to Central America where she has gained so much experience working as head chef at Farm of Life healing retreat centre in Costa Rica. Nicky learned a new way to live & heal, connecting to nature and practising meditation. She experienced wonderful openings working with plant medicine, including cacao. As she has spent many years DJing in Dublin, she naturally took a big interest in cacao ceremonies with chakra dancing. She believes this is a powerful tool to help open the heart and still the mind aided by cacao, music and movement.

Nicky has held successful workshops & retreats around Ireland and loves to share her knowledge with people. Her creative energy, passion for her work & her heart intention shines through to create beautiful gatherings for people to enjoy and leave bursting with inspiration.

My next cacao ceremony will be 7 Sept 2019 in The Chapel of Ease, Irishtown, Dublin 4. We will be celebrating life with a gratitude dance. I will have more information on this shortly. If you are interested in booking in, drop a mail to hello@nickyhalliday.com
