The 2 medicines, Ayahuasca + San Pedro or Wachuma You have the opportunity to experience both sacred spirits that will help you in your personal and spiritual development. We know that Ayahuasca is the feminine spirit of the jungle and San Pedro is the masculine spirit. Both work differently: Grandmother Ayahuasca focuses more on the psycho-spiritual healing of introspection and regression; while Grandfather San Pedro is oriented to inner connection and reflection. This therapy will help you understand the deep emotional and psychological essence that focuses on why and what for; how to find the most intelligent inner love and balance to live and enjoy what we have now, and understand that life is a divine gift.

It is important that you come to the office a few days before to coordinate your pickup and to drink the volcanic water. This volcanic water is sacred, coming from the heart of Pachamama to help you. The medicinal volcanic water is located beneath a hidden volcano, four hours from Cusco. This water is very pure and 100% organic. It is not the same as drinking water or mineral water, which are treated and disinfected with chemicals for human consumption. We use it to detoxify our immune system in general, prior to the Ayahuasca ritual.

The benefits of this volcanic water are countless. It cleanses the entire intestinal tract, especially the colon (the process takes 1 to 2 hours, after which you can resume your activities without any problems). It is a deep detoxification of the digestive system that eliminates harmful chemicals from the body. It also purifies the kidneys and urinary tract infections, cleanses the esophagus and bile, and combats gastritis, eliminating toxins and germs through the anal, urinary, and sometimes oral routes. It is a physical preparation before the Ayahuasca or San Pedro ceremony.
