About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Amaru Sol
Amaru Sol is the founder of Finca de la Sol and co-founder of The Now Is You, a sanctuary devoted to healing, remembrance, and living in harmony with Mother Earth. For more than eighteen years, he has dedicated his life to walking a path of personal transformation while compassionately supporting others on their own journeys of healing, self-discovery, and awakening.
His path began in 2008 after a profound inner awakening that inspired him to leave behind a life that no longer reflected his true purpose. Since then, he has devoted himself to deep personal healing and the lifelong study of ancestral wisdom, emotional healing, meditation, mindfulness, breathwork, nutrition, and Earth-based spiritual traditions. His journey has never been about seeking titles or recognition, but about embodying the teachings through lived experience and becoming a humble student of life.
Over the years, Amaru has had the honor of learning directly from Indigenous elders and wisdom keepers, spending years in relationship with ancestral traditions through service, ceremony, and continued learning. He has been entrusted by an elder of the Cofán people of Putumayo, Colombia, with the sacred responsibility of preparing and serving ancestral plant medicines according to their traditional lineage. This trust was earned through years of dedication, humility, integrity, and reverence for the teachings. He continues to deepen this relationship by returning to learn from his teachers and support the preservation of their ancestral traditions.
At Finca de la Sol, Amaru facilitates intimate gatherings where every guest is welcomed as family and supported with genuine presence, compassion, and care. His approach is rooted in the understanding that healing is not something given by another person—it is something awakened from within. His role is to create a safe, loving, and grounded environment where each individual can reconnect with their own inner wisdom and remember the wholeness that has always been present.
Each gathering is thoughtfully guided through ancestral plant ceremonies, one-on-one healing sessions, integration practices, sacred music, prayer, teachings, nature immersion, and community. He believes that the ceremony itself is only one part of the journey; true transformation happens through the integration of these experiences into everyday life. For this reason, every retreat is designed to provide practical tools that participants can carry home, allowing the healing to continue long after they leave the sanctuary.
Those who spend time with Amaru often speak of his calming presence, authenticity, humility, and unwavering compassion. He leads not from a place of authority, but from service—holding space with deep respect for every person’s unique path while honoring the wisdom of the Earth and the ancestral traditions that have been entrusted to him.
His life is guided by a simple belief:
The deepest healing begins the moment we remember who we truly are.
Through unconditional love, respect, humility, compassion, forgiveness, and service, Amaru continues to dedicate his life to helping others reconnect with themselves, with nature, and with the sacred wisdom that lives within every heart.
