Natalie Eidi

Natalie Eidi is a multi-cultural organizer of Ceremonies, pilgrimages, retreats, sacred workshops, permaculture workshops and various spiritual events in Mexico, Greece and other places in the world . She founded the intentional community of Las Liridas built around a ceremonial center where the ceremonies she organizes are held frequently. She does not call herself a teacher, or a medicine woman, or a shaman, or a guide. She likes to be called by her name, Natalie, and is mostly interested in the ability we all have to self reflect and find our own truth and path. She does have permission to share the medicine of the peyote and also works closely with a renowned yagecero-ayahuasquero (or Medicine man from the deep amazon of Colombia that works with Ayahuasca), yet still, she inclines toward tradition when it is possible to have someone from the ancestral lineage present in such rituals.
