Ep.21 Why Ayahuasca Can’t Heal You

Saturday May 08, 2021

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.

Ep.16 Ayahuasca Integration Process as a Client

Monday Mar 01, 2021

In this episode we are excited to chat with Libby, Nina's former client for Ayahuasca Assisted Therapy. Libby shares about her struggle with chronic pain and anxiety and how she healed herself and fundamentally changed her life.

“A year ago I died and was reborn. Wow I can't even explain how grateful I am for the Ayahuasca and for Nina for shining her guiding light for me and helping me to find the healer in myself. The last year of integration was the best year of my life. I found freedom in my body, mind, spirit. I have zero anxiety and life is beyond great. I trust myself and the universe. I have the awareness and the ability to choose how I respond always. This cannot ever be taken away from me. I am the actual phoenix rising, so symbolic. My heart flutters with joy. Every single day I am happy and flowing. I am so thankful for the awareness of myself as the healer, creator of my life.”

- Libby

Ep.14 The Red road and the Ayahuasca Integration Process

Monday Jan 25, 2021

The Red Road or the Red Path is the Native spiritual path. Walking the Red Road means living in the moment connected to all that surrounds us, respecting all of our relations and Mother Earth and Father Sky. It means finding a balance between and attending to our four sides: spiritual, physical, mental and emotional. It means taking care and respecting ourselves and the Creator. It means being thankful for what we have, to only take what we need and to give back. To give back to those around us and to the spiritual world. And to remember where we have been, to remember and honor our ancestors. It is walking in the right path of life, where we do the right thing even in hard times.

The shamanic worldview and the western mindset

- shamanism: everything is conscious, connected and alive therefore everything is sacred, there are many unseen realms (spirit world), awareness of natural cycles and rhythms, importance of balance, harmony, peace (physical, mental, emotional, spiritual), integrated, spiritually focused

- western worldview: focuses on the material aspect of life, achievement oriented, competitive, mind/ego centered, technical, theoretical, scientific approach based on logic and reason, disconnected from nature and real community, lack of spirituality in many cases, feeling lost.
