26 Days Shamanic Initation
Are you ready to step into your truth? This 26-day apprenticeship is a deep dive into the healing practices of the ancient Shipibo lineage through shamanic initiation. Immerse yourself in the world of plant healing, while under direct guidance from a renowned Shaman of Peru.
You will undertake an intensive dieta, with one or more Master Plants (in isolation), and establish a life-long connection to the spirits dwelling in the plants. This plays a critical role in the shamanic practice of working with Ayahuasca.
Your 26-day journey will have very limited contact with other participants, only brief visits with teachers and facilitators. Learning the tradition has some facilitation through lectures, workshops, and sharing. However, periods of personal silence and self-reflection play a large role.
After siting for the 26 days in the jungle in 2023, I am honoured to be assisting this group with the centre with Elio, Don Miguel and his familia. Please apply on their website as linked here.
