Please ignore all the bullshit comments this video is immaculately executed and I could not THANK YOU enough for sharing this with the world, and more meaningfully, with me. I am about to embark on my first Ayahuasca retreat and your story has given me so much hope and resonance so deeply with me. Thank you 100000X.
Ha! I feel you. The comment section is where humanity comes to defend their beliefs. This truth isn’t one that everyone can swallow, but for those (like yourself) that do, they see the quality of their life transform and improve 1000000000000x 💕😊 I’m excited for you! May the journey save you well and you be a blessing and light to others who will come after you 💫
You are so on track! I just went through my ayahuasca ceremony this past weekend!! Nothing about my being is the same!! It was powerful and cleansing! I surrendered to what Mother Ayahuasca had to show me and cleared it!! There are more ceremonies for me! ❤
i have been looking into ayahuasca for the last few months on and off, and no other video i have come across has the level of depth and insight as this two-part video i really hope more people come across these videos!
Thanks in abundance for your comment and I too pray that Ayahuasca continues to guide folks like you to her path and that the videos I made in collaboration with AYA’s wisdoms and channel are a continued source of guidance☺️💫
Hello.. Your channel popped up on my feed and im blown away. I have been studying healing of Ayahuasca. And to see people that look like me talking about it is a calling
I love your perspective on Ayahuasca. I've been trying to find someone who looks like me who has been healing with sacred plant medicine. Thank you I know grandmother Aya is calling me.
@@mstootable so glad you asked….the answer is Definitely! I recommend that over traveling with others any day. Ultimately even if you went with a group, it’s a solo journey inside. When you take the medicine you’re gonna be inside yourself for hours on end. Sometimes mixing with others you know can influence your journey in ways that are not healthy. They even recommend that couples journey separately or if they do travel together that they sit separately so they can be IN and not influenced.
Wow thank you for sharing. I teared up a little when you spoke about how the darkness said “give it back.” I sat with Huachuma in Peru and seeing the healing it gave to others in the group was an amazing experience. I will sit with Ayahuasca one day, but I am in no rush. I know the opportunity will come when the time is right. Off to part 2 now 😃
Yes everything when the time is right. These plants are gracious and incredible healers. I love them and their generous offerings! Thanks for sharing 💫
The way you weave words together is magical. That and your gentle energy makes for compelling viewing which is why I've just subscribed! I found your video because I have just booked an ayahuasca retreat in Portugal in January and was doing some research as a result. But I'm also looking to change my eating habits and thats what youre all about so double winner! Thank you so very much for sharing, so beautifully, your experiences and thoughts. You literally spoke to a piece of my soul. Love and light from London 🙏🧡
Hey London ☺️ One of my favorite cities to visit. So glad to hear the synchronicity of it all! I pray Aya in Portugal is a healing journey for you. Were you able to join the mailing list? I send weekly emails out to my YT Subscribers with mindful eating tips, recipes and opportunities to join me in a complimentary live class that I teach throughout the month. Would love to have you join us so I help you with your eating habits (especially after Ayahuasca when you’ll be integrating)
Love this and love you!! Particularly from your incredible individual presence and perspective. I never belonged to a village and family until I met my dearest sister from Nigeria. She wholeheartedly embraced me into her family over 20 years ago and the heart and healing from that support because I grew up in a Christian cult has been lifesaving and has led to a secure attachment of love. I appreciate your presence and this was a gorgeous and I really appreciate your kind explanation and wisdom.
You too? Wow! Yeah it's interesting how she repairs us. I can imagine that so many of us are separated from our bodies (even though we live in them) that one of the ceremonies would be solely about reconnection :) I love that for us! Mama Aya is so magical
@@TheMindfulPlate Yes she is magical! On my first night a voice from somewhere kept saying ‘go within’. And so I learned to surrender and sounds similar to your experience something about who I thought I was died…looking forward to hearing more of your journey! 💜💫
Thank you for sharing this. I love the breakdown you shared. I will be going to a retreat soon and I’m so anxious, excited and nervous. Mama Aya has been coming to me in my dreams preparing me.
Sweet sister, you radiate & the sun rays shines a glowing light upon you. Your expression & love for Ayahuasca mother seem genuine. Thank you for bringing truth about the plant medicine. The last 2 days, a persistent calling to research, ask for help & do it. So can you pls share where you had it done? Thanks love.
Hello😊 I’m so glad this resonates and that the Aya Algorithm led you to this video in your research. I traveled with Lotus Vine Journeys. I highly recommend them. It’s important to go with a group that is connected to the indigenous tradition from which this medicine comes. Their ceremonies are rooted in Shipibo wisdom. The host is also a Buddhist and she teaches the Dharma at the retreats as well to support integration.
I haven’t killed an insect since and my awareness is to tuned to insects and other animals more and more, especially when I’m driving, riding my bike or walking. All life matters lol
0:02 Greetings and blessings to you…. Can you share who you will be going too or with. I’m looking forward to planning a trip also and would like to sign up with a group.
Interesting. Came here to learn something. Instantly learn that Ayahuasca does not automatically decolonize the mind from external ideological contagions.
Good lesson. Ayahuasca doesn’t “automatically” do anything. That’s another lesson - get rid of the idea that there are quick fixes and magic pills. Those only exist in the colonized mindset. What Ayahuasca offers is an opportunity to “deworm” the body of thoughts and ideas that pollute the inner self and outer world. It also extends an invitation for those who have the experience to go out and do the necessary daily work of staying connected to Earth wisdom while navigating colonized places. Have you sat with Ayahuasca? If so, what did she teach/show/reveal to/for you?
Thank you for sharing, much appreciated. So looking to the day this incredible medicine will be made available to everyone, not simply those who can afford $7,480 for a Lotus Vine Journey Retreat, not to mention air fare and other expenses. Until it is, how much healing can there be in the world?
Interestingly enough, her price doubled after I took the retreat. However, I’ve also learned of communities who do it for as low as $300/session. I haven’t worked with them per se but others have. I can only recommend what I’ve experienced. If you message me on Instagram @shelleywellness I can put you in touch with those particular communities
Thank you so much for sharing. I watched the video of the other Black woken sharing their experiences too. I’d love to know if you or the others have had any experiences with San Pedro and can potentially speak to that compared to Ayahuasca. Thank you again for sharing! 😊
I’ve had experience with Huachuma which is sometimes called San Pedro. I’m not sure if they are different cacti or the same… but either way the difference si experience is I took it during the day instead of night. It lasted longer and I purged differently than with Ayahuasca. Also with Ayahuasca I did more mental work and with Huachuma I did more heart work. Both helped me feel lighter 💫
Which retreat in Peru did you go to? I’ve seen a few websites, but I didn’t see anyone in the pictures that looked like us. I like to see diversity where ever I go or plan to visit.
Ive never tried ayahuasca only mushrooms. As a Christian it truly healed parts i repressed and allowed me to find the kingdom of God within me. I was 100 percent being more true to my ego then my spirit. We are spiritual beings having a human experience and I wasn't true to who i was
This is such a powerful testimony! Say it longer for the people in the back pew lol! I have heard others talk about how plant medicine has helped them be more human than their religion allowed because of suppression.
You know what’s interesting? When I first sat with Ayahuasca in the Amazon, I too was living in King of concrete jungles- New York City! And Mama Aya prepared me for my return, showed me how to keep myself grounded and gave me instructions for how to integrate into the capitalist world while keeping the natural world as my foundation. I know she’d do the same for you! Have no fear dear, this medicine is the guide and the light.
Hey Nathan, I wouldn't advise anything I haven't done. I speak highly of my retreat and sitting with Ayahuasca in the Amazon because that was my experience. So while I can't advise on it, I do know of another POC centered retreat based in the West Coast (Cali). If you dm me on Instagram @shelleywellness I'll send you her info.
Hey nice to hear from you. Interestingly enough, I'm currently in South Africa for an extended visit :). Since I've been here I have not seen any centers that offer Ayahuasca. To be honest, I believe that Ayahuasca is best done in or close to its native land (Peru, Ecuador, Brazil, Amazon Rainforest, Costa Rica). If I were you, I would take a trip to sit with Mama Aya close to where she naturally grows. A great community to start with is Lotus Vine Journeys, a google search will bring up their website.
@@TheMindfulPlate once I have enough funds I also want to go to Brazil to do the Ayahuasca. I am in Soweto JHB, if you are keen I would like us to meet after my Ayahusaca experience. It would be great to pick your brain about mindful and clean living.
I see many of us from South Africa are here. The power of Podcast and chill. I'm from Durban, but my plans is to meet mama Aya in Costa Rico... I already have a center in mind that i will be visiting. The information is mind blowing. For me i have been doing most of these things and my life changed from what i was before. But i really need Mama Aya because i know what it can do for me. Great video and thank you so much. The way you explain it puts one in the center of your experience.
@@lungeloshandu6459 Yes as a matter of fact, I filmed this video in Johannesburg. South Africa represent! I happened to be there during my 1 year Ayahuascaversary :). I do think that meeting Mama Aya where she naturally grows is a worthwhile experience. It immerses you right in her natural habitat which does wonders for the experience! I wish you well on your journey and thanks for stopping by :)
Considering you used a white male emoji, I’m assuming you’re white. Also based on your comment, in my experience only white people have ever said “don’t talk about race, just talk about Ayahuasca “. This is the EXACT reason why I talk about race. You don’t get to tell me what to do. Unfortunately members of your race for centuries have the mistaken thought that they get to dictate what others do. It’s one of the characteristics of white supremacy - thinking that you have sovereign rule over others to think, act, decide and choose for themselves. Secondly, Ayahuasca is a consciousnesses, not a race. And under the influence of that consciousness I recorded my videos where I was instructed to help humans understand how destructive the concept of race is. And for humans who share my hue, they also understand the experience of white supremacy, being black and being brown - and in that experience Ayahuasca is calling all humans (yourself included) to heal from the destructive nature of race by addressing it (not ignoring it or acting like it doesn’t exist as you just proposed with your comment) and then transcending it.
@@fidgetgadget3475 hey, the only reply I’ve seen is this one asking “if I deleted your reply “. Perhaps it didn’t register when you typed it. I generally keep most comments as I’m open to respectful conversation and opportunities to understand and share beliefs.
@@TheMindfulPlate oh, maybe something went wrong, any way, I just typed that I'm actually mixed race dark skin, and that the way to heal is to give kindness and not pass blame, even when historically a culprit can be identified, staying in that blame game is a way of hanging on to tension, washing away all the emotional tensions by injecting positivity, peace and lova yall
@@fidgetgadget3475 thanks for sharing and clarifying. The part of the video that you're referencing isn't about blaming. It's about sharing my experience being in search of diverse voices who use this medicine. I make these videos because there are loads of Black and Brown people who are interested in other perspectives. For years the Internet was littered with primarily White voices on Ayahuasca. One of my other videos really helps bring a lot of Black and Brown people into the healing journey. ruclips.net/video/ACWDrx7055A/видео.html Another thing to add, Trevor Noah was one of my first teachers on healing the racial tension and I know it's because of his unique perspective on being mixed race. I'm fully "Black" (culturally mixed Jamaican and American) - and my experience with White washing has contributed to my perspective. Part of healing is meeting people where they are instead of telling them where they should be. That's why a lot of Black and Brown people resonate with the video I shared above - they see themselves. They're allowed to feel how they feel AND they're invited to heal with Ayahuasca. "Injecting positivity, peace and love" isn't always enough....reconciliation and being heard (vs told to forget about it) is also part of the process.

I don't know how, but out of the blue, I found out about Ayahuasca and will definitely proceed with this
I went to Lotus Vine Journeys in Peru. They currently offer retreats in Costa Rica.
How do I connect to have a ayahuasca experience? A phone number or address is a good start
Visit www.lotusvinejourneys.com
I would only do it with someone like you. I’d be scared of doing it then needing to go home to the concrete jungle I live in & a capitalist system .
You know what’s interesting? When I first sat with Ayahuasca in the Amazon, I too was living in King of concrete jungles- New York City! And Mama Aya prepared me for my return, showed me how to keep myself grounded and gave me instructions for how to integrate into the capitalist world while keeping the natural world as my foundation.
