Balance for mother nature and balance for us.
When we really remember we are part of nature, we can connect in a different way with the natural rhythms of life.
This is equinox time, a time that calls us to balance, to sit and review our lives, to pay attention, to listen so that we can connect with the wisdom to make decisions and to take care of ourselves.
It is with reverence that we extend this personal invitation to receive the profound healing ways from the indigenous lineages and mysteries from the Colombian Amazon Jungle.
In herbal baths, the water becomes a river. It carries the wisdom of the flora through the body and harmonizes it.
Yagé or ayahuasca is a sacred medicine from the Amazon rainforest.
Inipi or temazcal is a sacred ceremony to connect with earth, water, air, and fire.

It is fashionable to go on spiritual retreats. The world is so stressful that we all need a moment to rest from so much noise and information. That's why we seek out spaces that force us to slow down and take care of ourselves. Urged to disconnect from the hustle and bustle, I went to Ziru Yai, an ancestral medicine retreat in the jungle of Colombia. I have no regrets.
The importance of indigenous knowledge is still overshadowed, but it’s imperative to protect the few remaining elders. Understand their importance and take action.
