The forest medicines ShamanicTherapist
Five ancestral medicines in a single training — from the Sacred Pipe to Ayahuasca, with foundation, ethics and direct support from the professor
The Path
What is Shamanic Therapy
Since the dawn of humanity, people have communed with the Great Spirit through the Sacred Pipe. Incas, Mayans, Aztecs and many other peoples gathered in ceremonies led by shamans, healers and blessing practitioners.
Shamanic therapy works toward healing through the force of the four elements of nature, seeking contact with ancestry, nature and the wisdom of ancient peoples. It cares for the whole being — body, mind, emotion and spirit, in connection with everything that lives.
This training brings five forest medicines together in one organized path: Sacred Pipe, Tobacco, Sananga, Snuff and Ayahuasca. From the history and foundation of each one to its preparation, its ritual use and the care the practice demands.

Five Medicines
The forest medicines
Each with its history, its preparation and its place in the ritual. You learn the foundation of all of them — and the limits of each one.
Sacred Pipe
The ChanupaThe form of prayer that allows us to speak truth and heal broken relationships. A symbol of peace among nations, tribes and clans.
Tobacco
The sacred plantPlaced inside the pipe, it is used in rituals as prayer — and to create unity and harmony within a gathering.
Sananga
The eye drops of the forestTraditionally used as an all-purpose remedy: eye conditions, visual acuity, pain and ailments of many kinds.
Snuff (Rapé)
The breathA fine powder of tobacco with tree bark and herbs. An entheogen — symbolic and cultural in nature, not hallucinogenic.
Ayahuasca
Theoretical moduleThe Amazonian tea of jagube and chacrona: history, preparation, effects and visions. Taught as knowledge, not as practice.
The Foundation
The four elements
Shamanic therapy seeks healing through the force of the four elements of nature, represented by materials present in the physical world.
Earth
The mother who sustains. Clay, which represents the soil, is applied to the body to promote healing.
Air
The breath and the smoke. Through it the prayer rises and the smudging cleanses the space.
Fire
The ember of the pipe and transformation. The element that consumes what no longer serves.
Water
The tea, the tear and the cleansing. The element that washes, welcomes and reveals what was submerged.
