Private ceremonies are deeply intimate co-creations between me and the participants, every one unique and specific based on the individual. We start by getting on a call to deeply listen and understand where you are at, and see how I can best support you in your journey of becoming and revealing more of your radiant nature. Once I have this information, I customize the ceremony based on your specific needs; including the structure of the ceremony, the tools I will use, and the medicine that will be served.
I serve Heart Medicine - (Sassafrass) allowing us to reprogram and rewire our beliefs systems. This a specially formulated alchemical empathogenic plant medicine synergized to help open the heart and access deep blockages held within the emotional body, with the profound and unique capacity to do so without needing to go into the trauma itself (or the emotional reaction to it) as it turns off the amygdala (part of your brain responsible for the fight or flight response). This is what makes this medicine so unique and so powerful.
We will be combining the heart medicine with Master Plant Teacher Bobinsana. Bobinsana is a shrub with bright pink flowers that grows by the fresh waters of the Amazon, and she carries the energy of the Cosmic Mermaid, la sirenita. Bobinsana is a feminine heart opening plant that fosters empathy, compassion, connection to nature and spiritual grounding. She is also a weaver of dreams, helping us to receive powerful messages and teachings through the dream space. It is said that the spirit of the Bobinsana plant can provide comfort to those experiencing loss, heartbreak or grief. Bobinsana has also been used as a key ingredient in brews by curanderas to assist the patient to dissolve the barriers of time, and to be able to travel mentally to the moment the trauma happened, a practice also known as ‘soul retrieval.’
I also work with and serve Huachuma (San Pedro) - the sacred cactus of the Andes, holding the frequency of the masculine and known as “Grandfather" or “Abuelo”. This medicine is entheogenic and ancient, and creates powerful healing and clarity at all levels while opening the heart to the beauty of life and offering a higher perspective that empowers the individual to take inspired action in their life. These ceremonies begin around 12pm and last all day, concluding with a fire ceremony after the sun has set and a dinner together after we have closed the ceremonial space.

ABOUT THE CEREMONY
The ceremony will be guided and accompanied by live music, sound healing and prayer. In order to work with this medicine at the next level of its potential, I will be facilitating a unique quantum energy work to clarify what it is you desire to create in your life, remove whatever is in the way and start moving towards it. This process and its capacity to pair with this medicine in particular is what makes these ceremonies so profound. It's my belief and experience that this medicine can unlock incredible amounts of creative potential, so there will be an emphasis and opportunity for you to sing, express and pray (if you wish); to share what is in your heart and fill the space with your essence. After a full night of ceremony we will come together in the morning for a sharing circle.

“Participating in ceremony with Ima is truly a treat. A Sassafras ceremony is a unique healing experience that I would recommend to pretty much everyone. The medicine is gentle and beautiful and Ima is very much tied to the spirit of the medicine. This is a ceremony of love and healing that opens the heart and rejuvenates the spirit. It is done with much skill, love, and care. The Ceremony is very intimate and I felt cared for, safe, and valued. Ima provides an experience that is special and powerful. Say yes!”

“The ceremony itself was extremely sacred and beautiful. Absolutely all aspects of it were sacred, from the songs/music/instruments to the altar to the nourishment to the people who attended the journey. Ima’s prayers and discussions were heart touching and heart opening, a great companion to the medicine. I highly recommend this experience for everyone who wants to bring more joy, love, and light into their lives and into the world.”

“I completely shifted timelines after my first Huachuma ceremony with Ima. I could really feel the ancestral lineage of this medicine through his work. Life-changing.”

“I have participated in three Huachuma ceremonies with Ima and they have all been vastly different experiences. Huachuma has supported me in connecting with my body more deeply and resolving physical pains. It also has provided a deeper connection with the earth and opened gateways to understanding my path on the planet.”

“I so value the way Ima creates and holds space during ceremony. He provides a clear structure and safety while also allowing for flow so the experience can unfold as needed. I trust Ima completely and highly recommend his ceremony spaces.”
