I am a Physician specialized in Ancestral Medicine.
My path begins when I was little with the teachings of my grandmother "Diosita". A wise Colombian woman who taught me the relationship with plants and the world of the invisible, the power to conjure and recognize the presence of the sacred in everything.
For over 16 years, in parallel to my career at Med school, I trained as a Medicine Man in the Jungle of the Ecuadorian Amazon and the Andes Mountains.
In addition, I am Reiki Master and Chi Kung / Kung Fu devoted practitioner. I believe in the teachings of TAO as much as Buddhism and my ancestral heritage.
Thanks to the guidance of Plant Medicine I created my own healing method named CET Method® (Comprehensive Emotional Therapy). Where I combine ancestral knowledge with modern coaching techniques.
7 years ago, together with my wife, I founded Nina Wasi.
Nowadays I work as a Researcher, Psychedelic Therapist, Intuitive Coach, Music Therapist, Reiki Master, and Biz Mentor, with people from all over the globe. Guiding them to resolve trauma, emotional barriers, life stagnation, lack of purpose between other diseases of this era.
I love learning. Nowadays I am part of the Ottawa University. I participate in classes in the Psychedelics and Spirituality Studies Initiative.
I am also a Certified Addiction Therapist.
Also, I recently released a Podcast. When we share about life and Plant Medicine teachings.
Please, give it a quick listen here: https://podcasts.apple.com/ec/podcast/ancestral-medicine-for-modern-times/id1493146273
I work online(developing Healing Sessions) and in-person (with Plant Medicine Private programs).
Our retreats and programs are framed in the CET Method.
In the CET Sessions, you will release stuck emotions that you didn't know you have inside, you will reconnect with old memories hidden in you allowing them to express and go.
That will bring you a clear answer about what you have to do to overcome what is holding you back. Moving forward to liberation and peace.
But most of it, I am a father, a family man. And my compromise is to create the best world possible for the upcoming generations. That´s my everyday mindset.
HI! I am Sofi.
I am a mother, wife, Kung Fu / Tai Chi practitioner, content creator, holistic cook, and designer. 9 years ago I left my land of Uruguay in the quest for the Ancestral Knowledge of America and the guidance of Plant Medicine.
During my journey, I met Dr. Johnathan Flores. In our encounter, we recognized each other and decided to form a family.
It was then that we founded Nina Wasi.
I hold my home like any other woman in her temple. I am in charge of nutrition and order.
I am a self-taught holistic wellness cook. I am passionate about working with organic and clean ingredients. I love creating ferments that add probiotics and nutrients to our dishes.
As well as responding to the concerns and questions that may arise to you in relation to the work with Medicine Plants and our site.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
I am here to serve.

Thank you ❤️
I was introduced to Johnathan thanks to a good friend of mine, a current patient of him.
And so I had my initial consultation. Opening up in this manner was something new to me - still, there I was, asking for his help with profound honesty. He answered back with compassion by being there for me.
Next thing I knew, I was off to Dr. Johnathan Flores’s home in Olon with no expectation but the intention of placing my trust in his guidance, experience and process, hoping to be able to go through the work proposed.
I was welcomed by Johnathan, Sofia - his wife - and their two adorable daughters - Violeta and Luz - in their home, in this magical quiet local spot by the coast of the Ecuatorian Pacific Ocean.
I was assigned my own independent housing (room, toilette & shower and sofa/recreational area), with every detail taken care of by Sofi’s warm hand. I had the most peaceful times for myself in this private sanctuary and the best rests ever too!
Since my arrival, I completely gave in to their lead, from the healing work to be done, to every single healthy detailed meal crafted by Sofi with love.
I was able to face and follow the beginning of an intense personal journey only because I was taken by the hand of Dr. Flores’s strength, integrity and commitment to service, his talent, experience and professionalism, together with Sofi’s nourishing big heart and family supporting me throughout the way.
I am forever grateful for their genuine generosity of opening their home to me, for Viole and Luz’s smiles, hugs and kisses, for their loving care and commitment, for their empathy and patience to my process, for their trust and confidence, and above all for their teachings and their belief in me.

Amazing healing retreat
Our experience at Nina Wasi was great before we had even arrived. Sofia was so quick responding to emails and accommodating with our needs and request, we were skyping with Jonathan the day we had contacted them and it was all booked by that night. When we arrived the vibe of Jonathan was calming, putting to rest the nerves that had built up in anticipation of what was to be truly an amazing experience. We were further relaxed by the atmosphere of the retreat it was so homey and just felt comfortable. We were treated to the most delicious breakfast we had our whole tour of south america, in fact the food Sofia cooked was our best meals, breakfast, lunch and dinner of our south american trip and easily the most healthy. After breakfast was our one-on-one's which were deep, intense and healing in itself. I found just chatting to Jonathan about my life and my issues, something I normally keep to myself, challenging but ultimately liberating. We rested after the one-on-ones and lunch and did a little homework that Jonathan had set for us for our ceremony. once the ceremony started everything flowed so easy our nerves were only that of excitement and it was because of Jonathan and Sofia had set such a beautiful and peaceful atmosphere. the ceremony was mind-blowing, healing and indescribably amazing, we were guided at every staged by Jonathan and Sofia. My girlfriend had an outer-body experience and was so happy and content from her experience that she has been walking on cloud ever since. Both of us have started a journey of discovery, of ourselves and the universe and this experience was the kick start we needed . We both had an amazing time and only wish we could have gone for longer than the one night we were there. Jonathan and Sofia were incredible the whole experience is something I 100% recommend.

Transformative experience through deep healing
Gratefulness ist the first thing coming on my mind, when thinking about my time at Nina Wasi. A truly magical place. Jonathan and his beautiful family do their very best to make you feel comfortable from the minute you arrive. These 10 days are full of life teachings and intense work. If you are about to make a random experience this is not the right place, this place is about healing and about inner change. Jonathan is guiding you with all his love, experience and wisdom through your personal process and makes sure every ceremony is aligned to a purpose. Before every ceremony there is a consultation session to ask questions, talk about your experiences and clarify your purpose. Jonathans incredible empathy allows him to uncover the underlying issues within a short time and helps you to bring light into your personal situation and destructive life patterns. You are going to leave this transformative place much more in alignment with your own truth, clarity and inner peace. Thanks to all the family for their dedication, love, energy and beautiful work!

Life changing experience at NINA WASI
Jonathan came highly recommended by a friend who she said helped her change her life. By that time I had been to several retreats, of which three were Dr. Joe Dispenza retreats, and have been slowly creating great changes in my life. I was more confident and more in love with myself. However, I still felt stuck, I still felt lost and couldn’t shake off my unconscious obsession with gaining the approval of others. I didn’t know why I cared so much and how to care less. I also knew that my rebellion against my family and culture—under the pretense of self expression—was not the way toward true self-actualization and growth, but I didn’t know how better to do things as the frustration and anger were at times palpable. It seemed that nothing I tried was really creating the necessary shift to feel secure in myself and express myself in a healthy way. And to have the confident and courage to go out into the world and be seen and express my creative individuality; something I have been wanting to do but have always yielded to unworthiness and shame.
Jonathan was truly intuitive in understanding the underlying issue I was experiencing and was clear on the first thing that we needed to work on from our first consultation session online. We then expanded on that as we started working together on the healing process.
The process was organic and felt natural. After having completed the retreat at NINA WASI I feel profound emotional changes with a renewed sense of connection to my culture and tradition. As well as a clearer understanding of the importance of surrender in the healing process and a renewed commitment to it. I believe that we were successful in achieving the goals that we set out to complete during the retreat and I am happy about that.
I recommend Jonathan to anybody who is serious about creating the needed changes in their life.
