Ceremonies

To bring my lessons from the Amazon jungle into practice, I offer private ceremonial work. By using a range of master plants, studied over years of formal apprenticeship with a leading Kichwa maestro, I offer individuals and groups the opportunity to elevate their potential through ceremony and master plants.

Combining ancient ritual technologies of sound (icaros), sensory experience, and master plant intelligence, I create secure containers within which profound transformation becomes possible. As my research with ego-dissolution showed, based on the data of 207 people who have had profound experiences, we are able to let go into the depth of the experience when our physical environment is safe to do so. Drawing on ten years of experience in the jungle, this is what I facilitate.

As I have learned through my apprenticeship and my doctoral studies, the real work begins once the ceremony ends. Through guided integration, we are able to receive the lessons told to us from plant intelligence to apply them in thoughtful and meaningful ways to our lives in line with our purpose.

Sometimes, our purpose also comes through the plants themselves. As someone who has walked between the human and plant worlds, and combined with my qualifications in psychology, I offer private integration work. This work focuses on understanding the nuances of the ceremony experience (that is, translating the language of the plants), and developing practical and applicable plans to channel the teachings into your everyday life.

The ceremony shows us what we need to do, in integration we actually do it.

Ceremonial work is by referral only meaning that either you or someone referring you needs to be already connected to my professional network.
