1 night personal or couple SACRED CACAO & SANTA MARIA (Cannabis)- Opening of the Heart - in Portugal

This is a private & personal ceremony for an individual or couple that desire to open into the deeper spaces of the heart and emotional body with blessed Santa Maria & Cacao.

We work with a family of plant medicines and in general we offer personally tailored healing processes built exclusively for you. It is possible to incorporate or add other medicines into your process. please inquire for more details.

CACAO is deep yet gentle medicine. In the west, Cacao is much abused , however it is a master plant that can heal many imbalances in the deeper spaces of the heart and emotional body.
That is why so many are addicted to chocolate. There is another way to experience a connection and sweetness that we long for.
When harvested and prepared with loving intention, and consumed in a ceremonial space of healing, we can meet the spirit of the Cacao and receive profound and subtle healing.
The gentle touch of Cacao often opens spaces within that can be difficult to access, even with "stronger" medicines.
We learn that there is a time and space for all parts of our process, in the authentic rhythm of the heart and our emotional body; our vulnerability and innate wisdom.
For many this is a first experience to sit with Cacao with intention and for healing. It is suitable for beginners to plant medicine and those advanced on the path. It is often surprising the depth that opens in the ceremonies, and you are held by professional and experienced shaman-therapists.

Santa Maria is also a powerful healing master plant, also very much abused. When we work with intention and the creation of sacred space, she opens up new levels, whereby we can open and heal old places in the heart and psyche that have been closed until now. S. Maria offers us a profound meeting and healing of our feminine aspect, when we respect and honor her, she appears as a mother and as a lover, showing us the pain within, where we have oppressed the feminine, and helping us find healing and peace. She is a great help with resolving mother issues and romantic relationship issues, with her grace, love and compassion. She also sparks our divine and spontaneous creativity

Cacao and S. Maria combined create a powerful healing space for our heart and sexuality.

An elixir of Cacao & Santa Maria is prepared and infused with prayer and blessings, which we consume together, around the sacred fire in a traditional tipi.
Arrival is in the late afternoon and we begin as the sun is beginning to set. The ceremony lasts about 4 hours, it includes sacred music and sound, as well as breath work and complementary medicines (Hape, and S. maria).
You can go home when the ceremony finishes or stay to sleep in the tipi & have breakfast and integration in the morning.

Dates are schedued according to your needs. Registration is by email contact, health questionnaire and then video chat.
We look forward to meeting you in the sacred space of the heart.

Carol:
I have worked with Adya and Peram for some time . I find them to be highly professional , kind , knowledgeable and gifted . I highly recommend them as teachers and healers . I look forward to the next time we meet  again .

Shim'on:
The care, generosity, containment, love, acceptance, wisdom and attention I received by Param and Adya were by far the greatest and most powerful I have ever been given in my life. In a matter of 3 days Param and Adya gave the best of themselves (which seems never-ending) to me in dedication to my healing process. I have had multiple experiences with retreats and plant medicines and none of them compare. It was like I was the most important being in the universe for them and they were completely present in every moment that they guided me deeper into my process and myself. Their total love and acceptance of me coupled with an uncompromising (yet gentle!) will to get to the deepest and most true intentions and layers of myself provided me with a valuable window into myself, my struggles, and discovering my inner power to continue walking on my journey.
I cannot recommend their services enough. They are more than friends or family. They are two of the most exceptional souls I have ever met and it is an honor and pleasure to be in their presence and receive their gifts and deep wisdom.
So much thanks.

Ingo:
It seems almost impossible to express in words what is happening beyond what can be said. The encounter with Adya and Param came about by coincidence. Or something we call coincidence on an external level. In fact, already the first encounter felt like a reunion. Familiarity from the very first second. At no time in our conversations that followed did I feel persuaded or coerced into anything, but I always felt invited, accepted and noticed.
The ceremonies I have witnessed so far have been performed with great devotion. I felt safe and comfortable at all times. I was particularly impressed by the precious conversations that followed.
With absolute attention, as I have never experienced in this intensity with anyone else, they dedicate themselves to their interlocutor, listen, ask questions that encourage you to explore within yourself, give answers that lead further and never seem instructive or dogmatizing and at the same time are clear as a mirror.
My experience with Adya and Param is one of the best I've had in my entire life. It is good to know that there are people who serve humanity with such dedication and help seekers find answers and healing.
Finding your shaman is like finding a very, very good friend

Johannes:
I participated on two healing retreats with Adya and Param.
The Space they are offering felt all the time very safe and supportive for my healing journey,
Especially the personal Talks with Adya and Param before and after the Ceremony helped me with my intentions and integrations. But also during the Ceremonies I enjoyed the Songs very much!
Thank you for everything! 

Kalixandra:
Three weeks ago, I returned from my first retreat with Param and Adya, and I can happily say that I feel much better than before the trip. I have been in therapeutic treatment for over a year due to anxiety disorder. Working as a self-employed artist is challenging, and I had a traumatizing childhood because my parents couldn't show me love, and I was subjected to stress and violence from birth. This led to a feeling of being at the mercy of life, causing my nervous system to be in survival mode from birth, which haunted me throughout my life until the retreat.
Today, I sleep much more peacefully and have more trust in myself and the world, and I feel deep gratitude for life. It is much easier for me to be present and actively participate in life.
Living with this family for a week was a very healing experience. For the first time, I slept in a tipi in nature, and it was an absolute safe space and a grounding experience. The connection with nature and the distance from the hectic everyday life and social media were already very soothing on their own. I participated in four ceremonies and, to be honest, was scared beforehand because it is hard for me to relinquish control. Param and Adya were always there for me with all their love, calm, patience, and understanding, allowing me to relax and surrender to the process. In the ceremonies, I encountered life itself and myself on such a deep level that I realized I was killing myself day by day with certain dysfunctional, driven thoughts and behaviors, and internally, I was closer to death than to life. At 28, I experienced for the first time what life feels like, and the stress that had accompanied me for so long fell away from me in an instant.
During the Bufo ceremony, I connected with my body and breath on such a deep level that I now strengthen this feeling of aliveness day by day and remember that moment with a smile and a sense of trust and hope.
I am already planning further ceremonies with Param and Adya and can joyfully say that I have found companions, love, trust, connection, and deep healing in you, which I wish for every person in this world. The encounter with the plant medicine was one of the most important and healing experiences of my life, and no words are enough to describe this feeling of relief and gratitude. Even weeks later, both continue to help with integration, and we are in regular contact. 
This is just the beginning.
