Exactly What Was Needed
I should preface this review by saying that I have never participated in anything like this ... the thought of seeking out help in this capacity wasn't really something that I thought I'd ever do. I've done therapy before to work on some stuff, but this was completely different.
I understand that Juliana is a licensed therapist as well, but her approach to care and compassion and education was what sold me. She not only educated me about plant medicine, but helped me feel comfortable with sharing about myself and my journey.
We met a couple of times virtually to talk about my intentions, what I was hoping for with the medicine, and how to take what I learned in ceremony and apply it to my day-to-day life, almost as if she was giving me all the necessary tools to not only participate in the ceremony, but also to carry everything with me to live a more nuanced and fulfilled life; whereas, I'd always seen things in black and white.
Without going into too much detail, I'll say this has been life-changing for me. After the ceremony, I felt lighter and less burdened by past trauma and mental disruption. I was able to use the medicine to ask big questions, and I really listened to the medicine and never demanded more than what it was willing to show. I think that's the biggest lesson I can give is to not necessarily expect anything from the medicine, but to let it show you what you need to see, rather than what you want to see.
I'd definitely partake in another ceremony with Julie and Bene. Again, LIFE-CHANGING!!!!!
