Tarapoto, Peru, 2023

SO HAPPY that I was able to make it back to @katari.ayahuasca.center in the rainforest of Peru! Nature always welcomes it’s children with unconditional love, understanding and healing. This week I will be spending my time alone in this jungle hut, doing my 3rd Master Plant “dieta”. In this ocattion I will be drinking “Bachuja”, which is a very strong tree, who will teach me how to stand firm no matter what challenging energies blow around me. In order to allow this nature spirit to take over my system, I am not able to eat any food with sugar, salt, oil, spices, etc. I’m also not to use soap, deodorant, toothpaste, shampoo, etc, nor can I masturbate. Other than drinking this plant I’ll keep busy by meditating, praying, reading, doing art and dreaming. Also, I will be doing 3 Ayahuasca ceremonies to compliment it’s lessons, starting tonight. Though it can be challenging for a busy mind like mine to just chill out by himself, it is a priority to always work on my self improvement. I cannot go out and tell the world to become Love, but I can try my best to become Love, no matter what’s the scenario. So I do my shamanic work. Looking forward to next week when my students arrive here for their own work and ceremonies! #kataricenter #tarapoto #shamanism #bachuja #masterplants #dieta #shamanicdieta #amazonas #rainforest #healingvisionsretreat #peru (at Katari Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/CH-yJxZnB3d/?igshid=13nx0mlfrjlu8

I got this really cute armadillo craft in Tarapoto in 2012. Made a painting of it with my watercolor pencils.

Así encontré a San Juan en el río.
