Where the wound becomes the way…
Sacred retreats, lineage-held Ceremony, and a continuous circle for those living a sacred life.
This is an Invitation to Return to Your Origin, Your Power, and Your Divine Guidance.
There is an immense difference in the healing available to people when working with entheogens recreationally or individually compared to that in a sanctified container that is held by a skilled shaman.
Our Containers are crafted to be a safe space held with integrity, unconditional love, compassion, empathy, reverence, and appreciation for the unfolding Divine process of healing & the reclamation of your full Being. Integral to this space is a fortified space energetically, spiritually and emotionally that is held with deep respect and gratitude for the flow of what serves the highest good of all. If you want a different experience; here is your alternative.
Experience
I made many journeys to the Peruvian and Brazilian Amazon to learn the indigenous ways. I gave myself to intensive dietas with the Master Plant teachers; extended periods of sacrifice, isolation, and direct communion with the plant spirits. Among them was Marosa, known as the hospital of the jungle, from whom I received the gift of ancestral healing.
I trained primarily in the Shipibo tradition, directly with Doña Wilma Mahua, Papa Gilberto Mahua and Don Enrique Lopez.
A Dieta is not a diet, it is a sacred contract. When its commitments are honored, the plant spirits become allies and guides for life.
The difference between a facilitator/trip-sitter and a shaman is: A facilitator/trip-sitter watches the room, a shaman navigates the space through living relationships with the plants cultivated through Dietas.
On one of my last journeys to Peru, Noya Rao, the Tree of Light and my most Sacred Plant Teacher, gave me my Shipibo name: Ranko Meraya. The name did not come from a human teacher, it came from the plant Spirit.
