I like the way you presented that, for me, you clearly talk, from the heart and with responsability, that's precious, a clear mind you have
Thank you for the kind words :)
Thank you for doing this video!! it was something I have known internally but your words just solidified it!!
With pleasure!
Thank you, this is exactly what I needed to hear. I’m still relatively new in my investigative journey into Ayawaska before I drink the medicine myself. As you can imagine there was a lot of apprehension and fear. But after watching this there’s a lot less fear and I feel many steps closer to partaking in the Ayawaska experience
Nice Video, very informative! I will go on this journey when time is ready. Currently I still feel too young and uncertain of what kind of life I want to live. Ayahuasca will find me someday, I am sure of that.
Thank you so much for sharing, what a beautiful and peaceful message. Having my first Ayahuasca experience with experienced shamans of the Yawanawa tribe in 2 days. Very excited and nervous. I needed to hear what you had to say, so thank you ❤️
Amazing!
Do let me know how it went!
Hello! Where did you have your ayahuasca? How was it? I'm very curious about ayahuasca. Thanks in advance! 😊
WOW, I'm going to Peru next week to spend a month doing plant medicine & meeting mother ayahuasca with a Shipibo community. For some reason your video was at the top of my feed, I knew I had to watch it. Absolutely beautiful the way you speak! So calm and in the luscious jungle. Thank you for sharing this message 🙏
Thank you! Have a beautiful journey. Feel free to comment back and let us know how it went 🙏
How did it go?
So how was it ??.
Also, you said something in this video that is incredibly important.
These medicine people in the amazon not only have years and decades of personal experience and rigorous training,
They have centuries and maybe even millenia of cultural experience passed down to them. We have none of that in the united states. none. so when you have a church in the US run by some white guy in texas that drank ayahuasca once, this guy has no clue what hes doing and its incredibly reckless and very dangerous.
We in the west tend to think we know better because we understand the science behind ayahuasca but that practical personal and cultural experience is very important. YOU, reading this, as a westerner, have none of this experience with this substance so you need to be very careful who you do this with.
that is an excellent point made in this video
I don't think we westerners understand the science. We like to think we do. Ultimately I don't think science can really take us very far down this journey.
@@mark2073 yeah that's true too
Do not go down this route…all psychedelics are mind bending and as such can have terrible effects. Why do you want to use them ? To solve problems, to get high or to have an experience…? Think seriously as all suffering is caused by craving for something to happen or not happen that is happening now. To overcome one’s suffering takes diligence and an ethical path…with this, lasting happiness is not possible..there are no quick fixes. These medicine men may have years of experience but that doesn’t make them infallible…..you really have no idea. Said with compassion and wish for others to be happy in the way that is authentically possible..there are other safe ways.
@@theinngu5560isn’t taking aspirin for a headache a quick fix for pain- meaning that quick fixes actually do exist, don’t they?
!?
Beautifully said. Thank you ❤
Your energy is beautiful
You are an awesome guy with great energy! I’m going to Peru in September to the Temple of the Way of Light, and chose there because it’s suppose to be one of the closest matches to how this ceremony has been conducted for hundreds (or thousands) of years. I’m super scared.. but I absolutely respect the medicine and am ready to face/accept whatever it shows me.
Great video, thanks again!
Beautiful! Dr. Gabor's temple - have a beautiful journey and feel free to share here how it was (once you're back)
@@AyahuascaRetreat Thank you so much, I certainly will! I've been watching many of your videos and I really resonate with your story. I was living in San Francisco making great money, messing around with women, hitting all the "societal" measures of success... but I was terribly unhappy..
I've always been passionate about psychology and helping people, but neglected to truly help myself first.. So I'm finally taking the steps to enter that field and do the necessary work to get myself in a better place.
I'm not sure if you have an email (maybe on your website), but I certainly hope to capture my experience to share with others, and I'd be happy to share with you how it went! I know it won't be the magical solution we all hope it will be... but I'm ready to accept whatever it shows me so I can continue the work throughout the rest of the *true* ceremony - our lives!
@@bryguy07 yes, please email me your experience at info@ayahuascacolombia.com
@@AyahuascaRetreat I certainly will! Thanks again for taking the time to make your videos - they've been very helpful!
I too will be attending Temple of the Way of Light Iquitos, Peru. After a year of research, this retreat Center was above & beyond in terms of culture, professionalism & respect for the process with experienced Shaman…🙏
Gracias por este video hace ya 2 años hice el sapito Bufo alvarius con miembros de la tribu SERI de Sonora. Después de varios años del proceso, dieta, etc. Y ahora la abuelita se está presentando en mi camino gracias x tus palabras.
Gracias, con gusto
Thank you for making this video.
My pleasure!
I CRYED AT THE END, WHAT A BEAUTIFUL STORY
Thank you!
much appreciated
Same
I really loved this video. I am 57 and I look forward to transform my life for the better. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
Beautifully said. Beautiful vibes too.
Thank you kindly :)
That is very sad but it is so true to be responsible and respect the plants
Gracias brother - best channel about ayahuasca so far - you are keeping it real - can you help me ? I want to be treated the Bufo medicine than a week later try ayahuasca - is that dangerous ? Some people say I need to wait for two weeks …. What’s your experience with that ? Gracias hermano, keep up sharing this truthful message
I'd recommend waiting at least two weeks so you give your self enough time to Integrate and then make an informed decision.
Amen my brother Nico, peace with you my friend.
i love this channel
For those with chronic anxiety please don't do ayahuasca as it can make it much worse, you have no idea how dangerous this psychedelic is. I barely made it through myself.
I’m sorry to hear you had a negative experience.
Where did you drink medicine, with whom, and how long were you asked to prepare for your retreat?
Very good video- I wish there were more doctors and other teachers like this !
I feel like a lot of us "grow up" the way we are taught by whoever is around us and that doesn't necessarily mean our minds and ourselves actually develop...so we are not very "grown up/ know who WE are" deep down.
- i typed that about halfway through- I know that I'm not ready for an experience like that. But I'm aware of it and can work on myself because I know that..I really loved listening to this...changed my whole outlook on my day . thank you !
Being ready is a choice, not a state :)
Whenever you make that choice, we're here to gently support you through the process.
Thank you
Beautiful presentation 🙏🏼❤️✊🏼
👐
This is so beautiful
Thank you 🙏🏼
I would also consider talking to a doctor if there are any medications or other reasons that could cause a really bad reaction, such as SSRI's, the interaction of the MAOI's in the vine and these and many other medications can cause catastrophic reactions
Yes! Very important to ensure that the medicine house./tempe where people go pays attention and asks about medication use and possible contraindications
You're analogy was excellent. I have panic attacks stemming from health anxiety and the fear of death. I have taken every prescription probably and they haven't helped. I'm 49 so there's not much left to try. I think maybe this would help but my fear is a bad trip. And maybe ending up worse after. I can't risk being worse but i don't know what else to do. How do you deal with the bad trips or if it's going opposite the way you wanted??? What if I find out I'm not a good person and it makes me a bad person after? I have so much pent up anger, regret, and sadness. I worry those pups bring them out in a bad way. I've only ever done weed and alcohol. Always too afraid to do anything else. Everything else was worse so I didn't do it. Your video is very comforting and id probably make it through if you talked me through it lol.
Have you looked into Ketamine by IV in a highly controlled clinical setting with extensive talk therapy preparation first? If you live near a big city, there should be a clinic near you. Especially in the Western U.S. If you get into trouble they can get you out immediately by adding Ativan to the drip. It it a much shorter experience than Ayawaska (45 minutes) with great potential for therapeutic insight. I am looking into it for severe concussion therapy. Best wishes to you in your journey!
@@marktwain5232 I'm in a state that can't even legalize medical marijuana so no that's not an option
@@thehoop74 I am looking into Ketamine Treatment Research for traumatic brain injury from my many concussions back in the day. I would look at Ketamine therapy before anything else. Seems safer and more medically oriented in setting. Best wishes to you!
I’ve never gone. I’ve done datura when I was a stupid kid, ibogaine and toad venom as a adult. Toad was the greatest experience of my life. Ibogaine was a miserable 25 hours. Datura is datura and horrifying.
Thank you for sharing. In your opinion would you advise someone to try this that has trauma from abusive relationship, and sexual assault, and lost their mother?
I think that would be too much trauma all at once coming up.
Yes. These three experiences (sexual abuse ,relational trauma and the loss of a loved one) are things we’ve successfully helped numerous participants navigate during their ceremony in the past.
Plant medicine has the potential to help you find deep peace and forgiveness - if you’re willing.
The most important thing is that you find a centre where things are done properly 🙏🏼

I’m 24 and have dealt with depression for 5 years now. 2020 I got out of depression but I fell back into that hole once my mother died in late 2020. I have been dealing with horrible anxieties and depression. 2 years later now. I’ve tried mushrooms at the most but only about 2.5mg. I’ve had good experiences. I have been reading about Ayahuasca and I really want to try it.
Thank you for your openness. Depression, anxiety and the death of a loved one can be challenging experiences and it can feel like we’re left with nowhere to go - or no guidance to get through the intense waves of emotions.
Mushrooms can be a great teacher - and create enough distance and acceptance between you and your emotions for you to start learning to navigate them in a more balanced way.
Ayahuasca- if you’ve been feeling the calling- can be a stronger, yet loving guide deep into those places we dare not look by ourselves.
My mother was suicidal and it was the medicine that got her out of a very deep hole of depression, anxiety, fibromyalgia, poverty, resentment and more.
And like her, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing drastic transformations in people who decide to come and drink medicine in a safe setting, guided by reliable shamans.
So whenever you’re ready,
We’ll be here

Hit up my vendor.
On Instagram ¿
He sells.
so many thoughts, feelings, fears, emotions, stresses
arise for me,
as I watch this video...
here's just a few of the things
I get flooded with:
- emotional pain.
- unbearable grief.
- homicidal rage.
- suicidal depression.
- there's a person I sort of/kind of
have a crush on,
and the whole situation
is beyond fucked
and is completely toxic,
and I don't know how to get out...
and if I DO get out,
I have nothing.
- I am a failure in every aspect of my life.
- I'm old now, the future is hopeless...
- I recall the past and it fills me with rage.
- I live in poverty.
- fat/diabetic.
- how the fuck am I going to change my life around?
- perpetually single, without friends (my whole life).
- C-PTSD/INFJ/HSP/SPD
- people I love, got that horrific c-19 jab and I am terrified for them.
- panic panic panic...
I can see you've got a lot on your plate, and it can seem like a monster too huge to contend with..
So my invitation would be to start slow and small..
(therapy may aid, and if not affordable at the moment, perhaps this video can help get you taking the first steps out of where you find yourself:
th-cam.com/video/5xbADDvciko/w-d-xo.html )
Thanks a lot
I appreciated the maturity and respect you have towards Ayahuasca. I have never experienced it. But, I feel the pull of this tremendous potential, not so much for myself, but for my struggling sister. It's as though she has been struggling to tread water, in this ocean of life, for many years. It feels as if she's lossed herself. Is it inappropriate to try and lead another towards this experience? I tread cautiously. Should I attend with her?
Thank you Kevin,
It is very difficult to convince someone to join an experience we haven't personally had, so I'd recommend for you to go first and then invite her, or plan it as a siblings process by attending together.
Either way it's best than just pointing a finger and saying "you should go there, I wouldn't, but you should."
@@AyahuascaRetreat I've recently come to the same conclusion: have to walk the walk.
Thanks for responding. You've been on some journeys my friend.
Thank you
What's the beautiful song in the intro/ending of this video?
Aguila de Oro
Are you sure this is the intro song of this video?
Great video, Master Yoda didnt say that though. Uncle ben from spiderman did. With great power comes great responsability.
You’re right 😅
I realized after it was uploaded heheh.
Gotta get my movie quoting straight 😂
Is it true that dark entities can attach themselves to you during Ayahuasca?
It is true - If the medicine wasn’t prepared in a pure setting / and if the shaman or the temple tend to play with occultism/witchcraft that can spill unto the participants.
However - in a safe, reliable setting this never happens.
What is the intro and ending song?

Can I just hire you to talk calmly to me with low energy? I could never do medicine like this, it would be a scary trip for me.
Hahaha anytime!
can someone tell me when he talks about his personal actual experience in this
Or you could watch the video and understand the full story in the proper context..
@@AyahuascaRetreat touche you got me there lol
Where would you suggest to do it at
The community and shaman we work with at www.ayahuascacolombia.com are people I have personally trusted with mine and my family’s health
@@AyahuascaRetreat thank you. Would love to join you guys ) thank you for useful video
I'm only 3 minutes in. And I have not watched this video in completion. I'm a fan of Phi Tribe. I'm a night owl and crave something. Hugs from Texas 😎
people are at risk if they have pre-existing condition
Depending on the condition, yes!
@@laurenbriscoe6547 depending...should be off all MAOI meds, as well!
There's plenty of risks - pre-existing conditions is often a very subtle one if the shaman is experienced and knows how to help them navigate their mind back to a place of healing.
You can smoke huachuma?
No he was probably taking about some kind of dmt
Something similar happened to Connor murphy
I think he was talking about him?
What does this have to do with covid theories?
Does this work on depression?
Yes it does, for more information on Depression and how Ayahuasca can help to cure it please watch this video:
th-cam.com/video/4BqQTYem4-A/w-d-xo.html
I would only take it in a traditional environment like Peru .That means i have to win the lottery lol . I do find magic truffles helpful ,and that is all that i can get .
My cousin went to journey.
And how did it go?
For sure do not take this stuff alone home. I did it many years ago, and it absolutely destroyed me. Massive truama. For the better and for the worse. The trip is much tougher to deal with than DMT. Its an interesting terapeutic tool to use in the right setting.
You guys need to have kids and then ur view of life, ur mind, and what u should do to urself will all change :D thanks for the video :)
@Mohamed I am a father and I agree with him. I'm not seeing your point, I guess? Are you saying parents dont take ayahuasca or that parents are more fit for ayahuasca?
Of course there are risks for most people to drink alone .. but if you had experienced high dose Psilocybin and Ayahuasca with shamans than you can do it on your own the rest is ego either it is journey inwards ..of course the brew has to be brewed with proper intention and a sitter is almost a must ..the rest is culture , tradition , and guru bullshit we need the tools by ourselves..
The problem is most people can’t handle their darkness ..they don’t diet they don’t move or breath properly they don’t clean their guts and body out ect. If you diet properly ,meditate and do breathwork you are ok for Ayahuasca does not matter where ( home setting of course) I mean why should a shaman protect one from his own darkness when he has to go trough it anyway ..makes no sense to me :) BUT you have to be a strong human
Most people are not skilled sailors of their own mind, therefore to go with someone who has sailed those seas and can rescue them if something goes wrong, is essential.
A few can do it on their own, yet this video is not directed to those few :)
Doing it without a proper shaman is completely idiotic. Icaros matter. They know how to handles things, we don't.
@@bikerslow2598 have you done both?
Does ayahuasca help with autism?
Hi Wakko - In all truth we have not yet had the opportunity of working with a person with Autism. We welcome the opportunity although do not guarantee what would happen.
People who come and prepare properly often leave a lot better than when they arrived, so we'd like to believe that translates across the board regardless of the condition a person is experiencing.
You can’t get rid of autism, but with the proper work you can get rid of any guilt or shame about having it
@@AyahuascaRetreat could you share source how to get ready, before to visit your place ?
What u didn't mention is that IT CAN STILL GO WRONG ANYWAY
Even drinking water can go wrong if you do it irresponsibly.
Context is key
7:25 that is a possession process, people have no idea about DMT , in a nutshell it takes you to the real of these beings... I suggest you try peyote, it has been my knowledge plant for decades, Ayahuasca it's a brew not a plant...it need human hands to be done...while peyote or any other plant doesn't need human hands to be done...
This should be labeled "do your homework, this is REAL medicine, NOT a game".. RESPECT MOTHER AYAHUASCA AND YOU'LL BE FINE! Who the heck does this, without a Shipibo Shaman and a Peruvian/Costa Rican ceremony and facilitators!???? The people he speaks of are Disrespectful!!!
❤Shipibo Tribe, Peru❤be humble and have respect for the perfect Universe and Shaman guides...🌬🧘🏽♀️💖
Exactly. It is not a game - and should not be used just for fun, curiosity and "psychedelic tourism".
@@AyahuascaRetreat agreed! Respect and love is needed.. and a humble entry, not egoism..💙 sending love & light ✨ ❤
HEY, YOU ARE AS BAD AS THIS GUY WHO WAS FUCKED UP FOR HIS WAY TO TREAT THE AYAHUASCA, YOU ARE USING THIS VIDEO TO ADVERTISED YOUR SERVICES, WOW, GOTTA STAY A WAY FROM PEOPLE LIKE YOU GUYS
@@yoshuedelprana6259 Lol. For someone who wants to stay away from us, you're for sure quite eager and engaged in watching and commenting throughout a lot of videos in our content :)
Exactly ! Need to do homework before to join blessed nature.
For those who are merely curious about the psychedelic experience, then Salvia Divinorum is a better, safer choice. The experience lasts only minutes instead of hours and is every bit as profound as anything else can be. Still advisable to have a "sitter", and people have been known to freak out on salvia as well. The brevity of the "trip" is the safety factor. The user's mind set should be positive and not fearful and they should not have any present worries or problems as these will only be magnified about a zillion times during the trip. I do NOT recommend it for ANYONE under age 20 or so.
Set and setting are key - whatever the medicine you sit with.
Navigate these realms carefully - and always aim to have an experienced shaman holding space and guiding the process.
100 % disagree, in fact salvia is not even a phsycadelic. The plant is composed of opiate-like compounds with dissociative effects.
Also there is no ego dissolution with salvia.
I am only writing this for people not to expect the sort of possible therapeutic effects found with an actual phsycadelic compound such as DMT, Psilocybin, Mescaline, Ayahuasca
Salvia is completely different impossible to compare
Have s good day 🙏
I have done almost all the major enthogens and my salvia experience, a 1/4 of a gram of 80x, was the most powerful psychedelic I have ever done. Keep the user away from windows and exposed elevated spaces because salvia can make the user feel like the world is closing in around you or your being sucked into a object and people will jump to avoid being consumed by the world around them
This is why Yoda didn’t want Anakin Skywalker learn the ways of the Jedis. 🐸 🦯
With great power comes great responsibility :)
Can I just have YOU be my facilitator?
I'm one of the assistants at the ayahuasca community that I work at, in Colombia.
If you come here, I'll most likely be helping the shaman and supporting the group
@@AyahuascaRetreat Maybe someday. Can't really travel right now, unfortunately.
Ask about the cost 💵
@@hermitcard4494 ? is this a question :)
@@AyahuascaRetreat which part of colombia that having ayahuasca tourism
Drugs are bad, m'kay?
mkay?
Yes drugs are bad but spychedelics have the potential to heal traumas if you abuse them it will hurt you
its expensive, thats the only reason someone does it with a regular sitter
In our community, there’s retreats that start at $300, and some nearby medicine houses have public ceremonies that start from $20 per night.
This is extremely affordable - given all the work that is involved in preparing and serving the medicine.
Most people , however, would rather rack up alcohol, partying, substances and even healthcare bills than set aside the money to get to the root of their issues.
Healing isn’t free, but remaining stuck in dysfunction will cost us our life.
The choice, however, is a personal one to make.
@@AyahuascaRetreat yes 300 is a good price ...but someone from Europe would need plus tickets and a couple more days in a hotel probably 1200...which still is not much people pay much more for other things
Well, if you can find for free food, you are clever! But nothing is free in universe.. it’s a cycle of receiving and giving
@@skincarekemiskhan547 Yes bro the universe wants to keep you miserable unless you pay 2k to be saved ...
Actually many things in the universe are free in the sense of money..and you are one with the universe too soo...
I can tell you how well it can go. This isn’t a story about ayahuasca. It’s about a foolish addict
Indeed
Fear fear fear fear fear. Talk about the overwhelming benefits rather than the rare negative effects. This medicine is a gift
Some people leave scarred. It’s okay to have both perspectives out there and let people choose :)
@@artisticagi 💯
There’s a lot of darkness, people should know both sides before choosing. Also a lot of dark energy between tribes, most people are unaware of. And for sure it’s no ‘trip’ its ancestral healing, and no one will know what will be unlocked. It needs total respect, the dieta is very important, as is the integrity of the shaman.
Only someone who has not watched the full video (or our channel) would comment what you are commenting :)
Watch it fully and then we can talk.
Indeed - at our centre we ensure that we stay away from those "spiritual wars" that are quite too common in the jungle amongst most shamans
Yoda didn’t say that. Peter Parker”s uncle did
:)
Have faith and follow Jesus, and you will have all these risks without the poison.
Jesus is a good friend of our South American shamans :) contrary to what dogmatic priests would say, plant medicine is not a detour from spirituality but a useful tool towards deeper awareness of it - and the many masters that have come before us, Jeshua included.
@@AyahuascaRetreat I am so glad that Yeshua is in the hearts of the Sth American Shamans ....but i can assure you Yeshua did not engage nor condone the use of psychedelic plant medicines , as they are an altered state of consciousness akin to sorcery . What you are claiming of Yeshua above is a heretical fallacy.The acquisition of the Holy Spirit does not act in humans in such states , instead it is a shortcut via a Demonic door into the spiritual realm.
@@lexzenis2544 You certainly seem to know a lot about something you have zero practical, direct experience of.
(and I refer to both Jesus and plant medicine) :)
@@yantragroupltd and what do you know about Jesus using Plant medicine exactly? .....cmon im busting to hear you Stoner. I know alot more than you think.
Do the guy was a complete mess,, each drug has a guardian of that substance, my gid he had the whole cocktail, he’s dummed, because ayahuska will go in root problems of your being, this is likely that he would come out a life, if so the aftermath he could commit suicide or have some sort of mental health
lol 😂
Drug addicts
Nobody is addicted to drugs - people are addicted to escaping pain (which can take the form of overworking, eating too much/too little, engaging in consuming toxic relationships, and then alcoholism and substance abuse.)
The addiction isn’t a problem but a second class solution people are finding to run away from themselves and their pain.
Ayahuasca happens to be one of the natural remedies that -when used properly- allows a person to recognize the root of their addictions and heal them from the core.
It’s easy to say “drug addicts” without taking in the time to educate ourselves about the why behind addiction.
The simple person resorts towards judgment in those areas where their intelligence falls short to try and understand.
