Reciprocity is a cornerstone of Shamanism, and to us, it is of utmost importance that we give as much as we receive. 10% of all tuitions are donated back to the jungle and the tribes that protect her.

After decades of experience in spiritual studies and dedication to meditation and energy healing practices, in 2015 I found myself deep in the Amazon Rainforest of Peru. There, I had the marvelous blessing of meeting the incomparable Shamanic Medicine Man, Juan Flores at Mayantuyacu. He became my teacher and since then, I have been emersed in the study of plant medicine, shamanism, and the healing traditions of the Ashaninka Tribe. I have also worked within the Shipibo Tribe, initiated into the lineage of Noya Rao. The jungle calls me back again and again, and I spend months every year isolated out in nature. It is from the spirits of the plants themselves that I learn the secrets of their healing abilities.
As I am initiated deeper into this ancient indigenous lineage, the plants have asked that I bring more and more of what the jungle has to offer home to share it within our community. These Master Teacher Plants have and continue to improve my life in every conceivable way, and it is an honor to offer a space for you to experience the same.
For more than 20 years, I have maintained a busy healing practice and continue to offer healing sessions for individuals. I am not able to take new clients at this time.

My initiation into the plant spirit world began in 2015, alongside Laura at Mayantuyacu in Peru. The ceremonies and dieta from that first trip opened a loud and profound communication with the sentient plant spirit world for me, and I continued to work with my beloved teachers of the nature realm. For me, everything changed with the guidance of my plant teachers; my job, my understanding of who I am and what my purpose is, my connection to all living things, and my understanding of the construct of the universe. I still find myself in dieta for several months every year. I have developed a particularly intimate relationship with tobacco, learning from him his ancient ways of purification and healing.
It was by dedicated time spent listening to the plants that the plant spirit workshops were born. Everything you see here was created and gifted by the plants. We are happy to bring it to you and to honor the plants, our teachers, in their desire to help us all to heal.
