We have learned that the traumas of our ancestors are passed down to us through our epigenetic DNA. Between the trauma patterns in the DNA and the direct communication, or “guidance” we receive through our unconscious, the influence our parents and ancestors have upon our own patterns of behavior and beliefs is DEEP. Our ceremonies call in the sacred ancestral connection, facilitating the clearing and reclamation of wholeness for oneself and for the family line.

SACRED ANCESTRAL PLANTS
Shamanic healing is done from the very core soul of one’s being. This healing practice differs greatly from a typical healing session, as the client goes on a spiritual journey.
This modality is practiced in a deeply safe and nurturing space with deep meditative techniques, so that you can step into the subconscious spaces of your being. Our highest priority is to create a sense of trust and love so that the person or groups can fully surrender into a life changing experience.
In shamanic culture, sacred plants are considered as medicine and not as a drug; they are revered as highly respected sacred medicine. We believe that these plant medicines are deeply connected to the spirit, and source, and serve to guide us to non-ordinary realms where great knowledge can be attained, growth can be accelerated, and enormously profound healing can take place.
As trained Medicine Facilitators our job during these ceremonies is to join the client in his or her journey, hold a safe space, guide, protect, and support as needed. We believe that each person is their own healer and we are here to support that process of self healing. We also feel it is very important to provide post integration, coaching and therapy to continue the pace and understanding of the growth process.
SACRED PIPE RAPÉ
"Rapé" ceremonies, involve the use of a sacred shamanic snuff made from powdered tobacco and other medicinal plants. Rapé (pronounced "ha-peh" or "rah-peh") is traditionally used by indigenous tribes in the Amazon rainforest, particularly by tribes in Brazil, Peru, and Ecuador.
Purpose and Use:
Spiritual Cleansing: Rapé is believed to help clear negative energies, align the chakras, and connect the user with the spirit world.
Meditation and Focus: The use of Rapé can aid in meditation by enhancing mental clarity, grounding, and focus.
Healing: It is often used in ceremonies as a tool for physical, emotional, and spiritual healing.
The Ceremony Administration: Rapé is typically administered through the nostrils using a pipe called a "Tepi" (for administering to others) or "Kuripe" (for self-administration). The snuff is blown forcefully into the nostrils, which can lead to an intense experience. The immediate effects can include a sharp clearing sensation in the sinuses, increased alertness, and a sense of grounding. Some people may experience purging (such as vomiting) as a form of energetic cleansing.
Integration: After the administration, participants usually spend time in meditation or prayer, integrating the experience and allowing the effects of Rapé to unfold.
Cultural and Ethical Considerations:
Traditional Use: Rapé has been used for centuries by indigenous tribes and is considered sacred. It Is important to approach Rapé with respect for its cultural origins and the wisdom of the indigenous peoples who have used it.
Responsible Use: In modern times, Rapé is becoming more popular outside its traditional contexts. Those who use it should do so responsibly, ideally under the guidance of an experienced practitioner or shaman, and with an understanding of its spiritual significance.
Rapé ceremonies are a profound spiritual practice, that are intended to bring balance and healing, and should be approached with reverence and respect.
SOUND HEALING
Music is the medicine and our sound healing is an ancient practice that involves using sound frequencies to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. The idea behind sound healing is that different sounds and vibrations can influence the body's energy fields, promoting healing and balance.
Key Aspects of our Sound Healing:
We use Tibetan Singing Bowls: These are metal bowls that produce resonant tones when struck or circled with a mallet.
Crystal Singing Bowls: Made of quartz crystal, these bowls emit pure, penetrating sounds that can align with specific chakras.
Tuning Forks: Tuning forks emit specific frequencies when struck and are often used for balancing energy fields.
Drums, rattles, and much more.
GUIDED MEDITATION AND REMAPPING
We provide a deeply protective and safe environment to guide participants into their childhoods to remap neuro pathways while using ancient relaxation techniques to encourage a deeply protective safe space. The sessions help connect you to your ancestors, your younger self and spiritual guardians and guides. Sound healing is often included in the sessions.
