Grandfather Medicine Plant Sacrament Ceremony
Sacred Grandfather Medicine
Recognize your Potential.
Tap into your own divinity. Grandfather medicine helps us to move beyond the limitations of the mind to step into our strength and gifts, and to build self-confidence.
Connect to and deepen trust in your innate spirit and knowing.
Grandfather medicine is a powerful tool in helping us to connect more deeply to our spirit and trust in our own inner knowing and guidance. The identification with the ego is diminished, so we can rest in the feeling of awe for life and all beings. He brings us back to our natural state of being. Who we are when we remove the masks, impressions, attachments and stories that act as a covering and dim our light. His spirit reminds us of our innocence and connects us back to our childlike nature. When we are so connected to our light, then we can manifest anything we want because it comes from spirit.
Experience inner peace, presence and stillness.
Grandfather medicine has the profound ability to help us experience deep presence. To be content in just being with the beauty of the present moment, and to open ourselves up as vessels for magic to act and move through.
Increase sensitivity to subtle energy and the invisible world.
What if we could recognize that harmony exists within the natural world, and that the disharmony we experience comes from within?
Grandfather medicine helps us to access and journey into the plant realm to see nature as one of our greatest teachers, and to observe how the natural world lives and breathes. He also helps us to become more sensitive to energy, the expansion and contraction of the universe, vibration, and the energetic aura of all things. It is also common to feel more connection to the spirit world and invisible realm while on this medicine.
Expand your heart.
Grandfather medicine connects us back to pure, unconditional love. Oftentimes, the experience with this medicine is expansion into the vastness of the heart, so we can feel from a somatic experience what it means to guided from this space.
Clear out stagnant energy, and remove what no longer serves you.
We control our own story. What we create, what we think, what we diet, as well as our actions affect our vibrational frequency and what we’re attracting. Drinking the medicine helps to rewire old circuits and create new neural pathways in the mind. He helps to awaken and activate the cells, and move stagnant or blocked energy.

Journeywork.
Remembering our innate wholeness to live more intentionally and connected to self, others and the natural world through expanded states of consciousness.
I offer a comprehensive and therapeutic approach to exploring plant sacrament ceremonies in a safe and supported container with an experienced practitioner. I’ve been traveling to Peru for the past decade studying under my teachers and being initiated into this work through dieta-s.
For thousands of years, many cultures have discovered and utilized the healing power of plants. In more recent times, we are seeing the Western world recognize and acknowledge psychedelics and plant medicine for their medicinal and therapeutic uses through research-based studies being conducted worldwide.
Journeywork is developing a relationship with plant spirits to gain access to the teachings, lessons and insights they have to share based on what we’re open and ready to receive. We’re guided toward a life filled with more clarity, awareness, presence, curiosity, and expansion.
Plants open us up to see where things aren’t working in our current life: career, relationships, lifestyle, diet, etc. They have the tendency to create friction and stir things up to help us recognize where shifts need to be made to live more harmoniously. Every journey is unique, and will vary for each individual, as the medicine will connect to what we need and not necessarily what we want.
Working with plants helps to raise the vibrational frequency of our energetic field. If we want to change the world we live in, it starts with SELF. Through strengthening our own energy system, we can start to connect to our own inner light and emanate it onto others to influence the collective.
My Intentions for this work.
Serve as a bridge.
According to the Mayan calendar, my Nahual is Ix, the Jaguar, which calls me towards a life dedicated to sharing the Earth’s medicine and to serve as a bridge between the between the western world and indigenous and ancestral wisdom. It is my responsibility to educate and share the transformative power and medicinal use of plants as sacraments and assist you in developing a relationship to them as a teacher and ally.
Integrity.
I respect the sensitivity, vulnerability and courage it takes to step into the realm of medicine work and explore the layers of ourself more intimately. I vow to honor the sacredness of this medicine and uphold integrity through responsible use and pure intentions. I will honor the traditions and people who have been stewards of this knowledge for generations past.
Gratitude.
I was called to this work a decade ago, and I express gratitude from the depths of my heart to my teachers who shared and entrusted me with their wisdom, and blessed me permission to share this work with others.
Impeccability.
As a space holder, I recognize that the impeccability of my spirit will directly affect the container in which I set. I promise to remain consistent and dedicated to my own spiritual practice, so the vessel through which I’m working is maintained.
Grace.
Over the past decade, I have sat in many master plant dieta-s to strengthen my relationship with the spirit of Washuma. It is through these initiations that I am conduit for the medicine to work its magic through and to transmit the guidance being received.
Love.
All my ceremonies are intuitively guided and carefully curated to honor the uniqueness of every individual. I lead with love and from the heart.

Testimonials.
“I’m completely amazed by my temperament this past week, I feel the intention of resetting my body’s addiction to the stress hormones>negative thought cycle began to settle in almost immediately. I’ve been feeling this warm blanket of indifference over everything I do (especially the “bad” things and habits), and it’s given me so much space to make different choices in real time without having to go down the shame hole. The lack of internal drama has been bringing me so much dang joy in my day to day. I really want to thank you SO much for doing the work that you do. I’m so grateful that I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to meet/work with you and your medicines in this lifetime. You’re a great space holder and an absolutely beautiful human overall. Thank you soooo much!”
