5 Things to Know Before Your First Journey🐍
The call of the Vine is powerful, but walking into the Maloca is a step that requires both courage and preparation. 👍
Whether you are seeking healing, clarity, or a spiritual awakening, here is what you need to know before drinking Ayahuasca.
✨The Dieta is Non-Negotiable:
Preparation starts weeks before you arrive. Cleaning your body of salt, sugar, caffeine, and chemicals isn’t just about safety—it’s about becoming a « clear vessel » so the medicine can communicate with you more deeply.
✨It is Not a « Trip, » It’s a Therapy:
Unlike recreational substances, Ayahuasca is a profound psychological and spiritual tool. It often shows you what you need to see, not necessarily what you want to see.
✨The Purge is a Blessing:
Physical release (vomiting or crying) is often part of the process. In the Shipibo tradition, we see this as the « cleansing »—the removal of energetic blockages and old traumas that no longer serve you.
✨Your Intentions are Your Compass:
Why are you here? Having a clear « Why » gives you an anchor when the visions become intense. However, you must also be ready to surrender those intentions to the wisdom of the plant.
✨The Shaman Matters: The « Icaros » (sacred songs) sung by our Maestra Estela Pangoza act as the GPS for your journey.
Being in a safe, traditional container like AyaMadre ensures you are protected and guided throughout the night.🧘♀️
