Plant Medicine Ceremonies

We will gather together in Plant Medicine Ceremonies. Ayahuasca is often compared to a wise Grandmother, and like an onion, she can help you find your center and let go of what no longer serves you, as well as helping to heal physical and mental illness.

Grandfather San Pedro is the healing masculine energy, helping you find alignment and open your heart once more, ready to take flight. We will meet with Grandfather San Pedro next to Granfather Fire in beautiful, unique ceremonies

Mama Wilka (Vilca, Huilka) is a rare, sacred medicine that comes from the Huilko tree in the Andes. Miguel is one of a handful of people who know how to work with this medicine. Huilka is a medicine taken as a snuff, and is very visionary, intense and short. The experience usually lasts about 1 hour. This plant contains 5MEO DMT. Wilca is known to heal terminal illness, and is especially helpful for those with addictions. She teaches us about ourselves and the Universe and helps show us clearly our path in life.


We will provide preparation support, and we hold circles during our plant medicine retreats to discuss any questions you may have in advance. After our plant medicine ceremonies, we also have sharing circles, so you can share any pearls from your ceremony experience. Some people have sat in ceremonies previously, whereas, for others, it is their first time meeting with the plant medicines.



Inner Light Workshops:

- Learn different techniques for connecting with your higher self and intuition

- Song Circle: Learn medicine songs and share your own songs. Bring instruments if you like!
