Healing & the Higher Self
Initiations into Higher States of Being with Sacred Plants

(Notice: Our Intermediate program may also be attended by those without any prior experience with ayahuasca or Salvia divinorum. Please note that there are no invited speakers. More about this program below.)

Shamans think of plant teachers such as ayahuasca and Salvia divinorum as evolved spirit entities. By ingesting them, shamans believe they are taking in the plant spirit's consciousness onto themselves. Once the effects of these plants begin on the user's consciousness they become introspective and engage in periods of personal review and self-reflecting, often times on the course of their life and personal relationships. In turn, these types of experiences can be highly psycho-therapeutic. Other users opt for exploring non-physical realms beyond the five senses.

The states of consciousness afforded by psychoactive plants have the potential to beneficially transform one's sense of being, change one´s perception of the world around them, and enhance their relationship with others as well as with oneself. Thus, one becomes aligned with the intelligence behind Creation, which is embedded in all that exists. Once this occurs, the seeker is able to meet life´s challenges, from personal to professional, with relative ease; resting in the knowingness that said apparent obstacles are merely catalysts for change. Lao Tse once wrote:

"Understanding others is wisdom. Understanding yourself is enlightenment."

Understanding and knowing ourselves, who we are and what is it that we may have incarnated into the human experience for is key in accesing our personal power. This power has the potential to transform poupers into kings; victims into victors. We must get to know ourselves through personal and interpersonal experiences, self reflections, and by whatever other means we, as individuals, deem fit. Through
the use of sacred teacher plants this process may be facilitated.

We are now offering a new 10-day program that has been carefully designed and is based on proven and effective techniques from various disciplines, including teachings from shamanic practices, ancient mystery schools and modern transpersonal studies. It is geared towards exploring mind states associated with heart opening, transcendence and deep spiritual healing. Initiations into higher states of being by way of ayahuasca, imagery-rich guided meditations, and one's own higher self are part of this program as well as one-on-one personal spiritual coaching sessions. Participants will have the opportunity to participate in four (4) ayahuasca ceremonies and two (2) Salvia divinorum ceremonies.

Here’s some of what you will learn in our Intermediate program:

* How to release blocks and karmic patterns that hinder your spiritual growth

* Experience soul healings from the plants

* How to work with the healing energy

* How to contact and receive impressions from nature spirits

* How to repattern your life blueprints

* Psychic self-defense (How to fend off astral entities and psychic attachments)

* How to clear karmic contracts and replace erroneous beliefs

* How to clear energy channels

* How to consciously connect with one’s own higher self at any time
