SHAMANIC SPACE
SHAMANIC PSILOCYBE ceremony in the mountains of Idyllwild, ca
For those looking to learn to work with plant medicine in a safe and contained environment under the guidance of Shaman and Medicine Woman Natalia Laria and Ayurvedic Practitioner and Holistic Healer, Adela Bustamante.
This is the second date of 2022 of our very special work with the sacred medicine the ‘Niños Santos o Niños de Luz’ (psilocybin cubensis) as they are known in the Mazateca tradition of Oaxaca, Mexico.
In Mexico, the ancient Aztecs are said to have used Teonancatl (“Flesh of the Gods”) — another name for the fungi — as far back as 5,000 B.C.E. The Niños Santos teach us to find divine wisdom within, as a source of healing. Modern neuroscience has revealed how psilocybin interacts with serotonin receptors in the brain in order to produce a range of consciousness-altering effects. Psilocybin and other classic psychedelics have strong, unique anti inflammatory properties and promote functional and structural neuroplasticity. They can promote the regrowth of neural connections lost to depression, stress, PTSD, addiction, trauma, injury or disease.
Join us for an evening of profound transformation. Take the Niños Santos as children of nature showing you the way, the possibilities, but ultimately you are the one that help those possibilities manifest. This is why any plant medicine ceremony is most beneficial when approached with a humble heart, clear intentions and an open mind.
