March 2025 I spent four weeks in Iquitos Peru with a beautiful Shipibo family where I was deeply initiated on many levels in many ways.
Most definitely one of the most beautifully challenging experiences of my life and one I am forever grateful for.
I feel so blessed to bring some of the traditions back home with me as I hold space for women on their path.
The Shipibo Ice Bath is the one modality we worked with that was NOT a plant and it is potent. An offering of purity, cleansing, and clearing. An opportunity to see how the body responds, to pause, breathe, stabilize, and listen.
Sacred Mapacho is another very near and dear to my heart medicine that came home with me and is part of all that I am and do in medicine work.
Today, after a Kambo ceremony with Kelli McMullen we closed the space with this beautiful ice bath and a Mapacho blessing๐
In gratitude for the opportunity to study and learn from such ancient wisdom.
Thank you Kelli McMullen for your willingness to lean in and honor your needs in each moment. Cheers to day 2!
