The Vine of the Heart Ayahuasca ceremony is an immersive journey, a profound odyssey that unfolds over a single night. Beyond any doubt, the potent and transformative essence of the sacred plant teacher Ayahuasca is unmistakable, unlocking the chambers of our hearts and the expanses of our minds. Yet, what sets these ceremonies apart, transcending mere rituals and the healing embrace of medicinal melodies, is the nurturing cocoon of love that we collectively weave and the remarkable way we bring our odyssey to its culmination.
As twilight descends, we converge within the sacred ceremony space, forging a hallowed vessel for our exploration. With the elixir of Ayahuasca coursing through our veins, the journey unfurls, stretching across 4-6 profound hours. After our voyage, we unite over a grounding and nutritious meal and engaging conversations, often beside the warm embrace of a flickering fire if the venue allows. We then slumber within the sacred confines of the ceremony space, concluding our journey as the morning sun emerges. A rejuvenating physical breath-work and body integration session beckons, followed by a closing ritual of sharing with a sacred talking stick. This meticulously crafted experience presents countless opportunities for life-altering revelations and transformative breakthroughs. Throughout this voyage, you are lovingly guided and supported by seasoned facilitators who have led countless souls to what we call nature’s very essence. And as the new day beckons, you emerge invigorated and refreshed, ready to embrace the world anew.
You will need to bring:
1. Camping mattress: Be comfortable to sleep the night through.
2. Warm bedding, pillow
3. A bucket
4. Eye mask for breath work session
5. A journal for your thoughts and process.
6. A water bottle & tissues.
7. Ear plugs
