About the Teacher

Why study with them?

Don Hector began learning about the medicine plants and medicine spirits when he was eight years old from his grandfather, who was also a Maestro Ayahuasquero. Under the guidance of his grandfather, Hector spent several years dieting medicine plants and developing relationships with their spirits. It was not until he was 12 that his grandfather deemed he was ready to drink ayahuasca and have the much deeper and direct interaction with these spirits that ayahuasca can provide.

Don Hector was raised in Chazuta, a small town on the Huallaga river south of Tarapoto. He has been working with ayahuasca over 50 years, and is truly a master of this healing tradition. Hector has a profound connection with the spiritual world, not only with the medicine plants and trees of the Amazon, but also with healing and doctor spirits only found in spiritual realms. . This is clear from the complete change in voice and dialect when these other healing spirits are moving through him.

Hector has an encyclopedic knowledge of the medicine plants of the upper Amazon. Any discussion of an illness will elicit a description the plant and treatment process that can heal that particular problem. Don Hector has healed various forms of cancer, ovarian cysts, prostate problems, ulcers, digestive issues such as IBS, and many other ailments. For any problem he maintains “the jungle and the spirits have a solution”.

Humble and quick to laugh and make jokes during meetings, Hector brings high energy to the ayahuasca ceremonies. He has hundreds of icaros, and it is not uncommon for him to go four or five ceremonies without repeating one. As with most good healers, he has a profound faith in God and often calls in divine energy in his healing work.

Hector is committed to his work as a curandero and to helping people live healthy, authentic lives. As people share their experience in our morning meetings after ayahuasca, he will often pause the meeting and do healing work on someone based on what they had just shared about their experience.
