Our team of Master Shamans carries an unbroken lineage of sacred plant medicine wisdom. For generations, our Shipibo Shamans have worked with Ayahuasca, upholding the sacred traditions passed down through their ancestors. Our Psilocybin Mushroom ceremonies are guided by a Mazatec medicine woman from Huautla de Jiménez, Oaxaca. She carries the lineage of her mother, Abuela Julieta Casimiro, a former member of The International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers.
Our Shamans have dedicated their lives to working with master plants such as Ayahuasca, Wachuma (San Pedro), Peyote, and Niños Santos, offering profound healing and spiritual guidance to those seeking transformation.
