Email: Drscottirwin@gmail.com
Presently, Dr Scott offers Plant Medicine Retreats in the Amazonian rainforests of Ecuador. These retreats take place in a small, Kichwa indigenous community called Sacha Wasi Communidad, about 30 minute’s drive from Puyo where guests stay in simple, locally-constructed bamboo huts and participate in numerous rituals with medicinal plants, as well as daily hikes and music, ensuring a close connection with la Pachamama, our earth mother.
Here seekers can experience the healing power of ancestral master plants such as Ayahuasca, San Padro, Psilocybin, Sananga, Guando, Mapacho, Rape' and others.
Profits Support this Indigenous Community.
Dr Scott works with this Kichwa tribe in numerous ways, and the profits gained from retreats are shared with these important partners to help improve the community infrastructure. New electrical power supply, water supply, hot water, laundry, refrigeration, and a community learning center with high speed internet and 4 computers are examples of recent improvements.
At the community, you are surrounded by nature. The village is located between two rivers and hikes in the surrounding areas take you to breathtaking waterfalls. This is an essential component to the retreat and healing process.
For the past 5 years, Dr Scott was the Senior Minister, Staff Psychologist and Senior Ayahuasca Facilitator at Soul Quest Ayahuasca Church of Mother Earth in Orlando, Florida.
Soul Quest is considered to be one of the largest Ayahuasca churches in the United States and has served ayahuasca to over 20,000 individual members.
One of his achievements while at Soul Quest was the development of over 26 free online weekly pre & post-ceremony integration groups. Groups included psycho-spiritual integration, Zen Buddhist Meditation (taught by a former Zen Buddhist Monk). Psychedelics in Recovery Groups, A Course In Miracles Study Group, Bhagavad Gita Study Group, Jungian Group, Jungian Shadow-Work Group, Transformational Breathwork Group, Writing Circle, Buddhist Spiritual Studies, Support for First Responders, Motherhood group, Women's Only Group, Veterans group, and a weekly online Church service that received 1500 to 2000 weekly views.
Dr Scott left Soul Quest to pursue a deeper understanding of the ancestral plant medicines of the Amazon.

In this special episode we are having a Round table discussion about the integrity of a healer.
Highlights
What does integrity mean to us?
Creating a safe container
Trust and informed consent
Quality over quantity
Clear communication and agreements
Vulnerability and transparency
How long is the healing process?
Educating and empowering our clients
Responsibility: what you put in, you get out
The intention of this Round Table is to unite healers and teachers across the globe to join in service, to educate and uplift humanity in this time of global transition. The focus is healing, awakening and self empowerment, expanding our awareness of who we truly are. We stand on the common ground that we are our own healers and love is the medicine that heals old wounds and brings us together as a real family that we are. We walk many paths but we all walk the one path of the One Heart.
And so, we gather together to bring our experiences, wisdom and tools to those who are looking for guidance, community and support.
Gathering in circle is and creating a sacred space intentionally to share and cooperate reminds us that we are equal and part of the one human family.
We are planting this idea as a seed, and we are excited to see how it will grow, flourish and enrich the collective.

Dear Sisters and Brothers!
Please join us for this passion project to heal our relationship with the divine feminine and bring balance to our masculine and feminine aspects❤️ this practical workshop we will work together to bring healing into our life, our families and to all of our relations! When we come together, this healing is exponentially accelerated, that’s why we are creating this space.
To live a full life, it's so important we all take some time to explore this and address the wounds of the feminine aspect of our Being. The experience we have in the womb and at birth creates patterns and programming that stay with us for the rest of our life. Many of us experiences birth trauma while coming into this world.
We experience these traumas at a soul level. These traumas cause a part of our soul to fragment off and this can manifest in a multitude of ways, such as:
Addictions
Fear of rejection and abandonment
Inability to start or finish projects
Trust and anxiety issues
Relationship issues
Financial difficulties
Low self-esteem and feelings of unworthiness
Self-sabotage, self punishment
Inability to open and receive abundance
Inability to fully feel, sense, and enjoy life
The good news is that we can heal these wounds by addressing these traumas. We can recall these fragments of our soul. We can return to Wholeness.
In our workshop we learn about our connection to the divine feminine aspect. We explore some powerful tools such as shamanic journeying, guided meditation, prayer, breathwork and the power of community to heal together and to rewire old programs to create more wealth, health, and happiness in our lives.
This workshop will be live on zoom but also recorded and sent to all participants after ❤️

"Everything is a mirror for the Soul to recognize itself"
In this episode we dive into some shadow work and talk about how ayahuasca can help to lift the veil from our eyes and help us to heal & awaken?
We explore how people, places and events serve as mirrors for us to expand our awareness and integrate aspects of ourselves that were denied or forgotten.
Ayahuasca can help us to change our perception and turn our challenges into gifts.
Our triggers can show us our blind spots and lead us into self acceptance and self love.
We discuss why there is no point to throw stones at the mirror and how to shift into gratitude instead for the gift of love and freedom.
Our mantra for this week:
“You are my mirror, thank you for showing me where I need to love myself to be free.“
Remember, you are the healer and love is the medicine. https://www.facebook.com/groups/AyahuascaAssistedTherapy/

In this episode we share about how Ayahuasca can be a powerful ally to connect to your inner guidance and to remove obstacles so you can follow your intuition. Following inner guidance is vital to be a free and sovereign being but it can be challenging in a society that rewards reason and logic. Tune in to learn what happens when you listen or don’t listen to your intuition and share some personal stories and miracles. As it turns out, intuition is one of the best kept secret and directly connected to success, clarity and confidence. It can greatly reduce anxiety, unlock creativity and create a state flow in life. “The intuitive mind (higher mind) is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.” - Einstein Tune in to learn about how Ayahuasca can help you to find your path and follow your dreams.
