“2023 proved to be a very challenging year for me with a lot of heartbreak. I had been dealing with a hard break-up, getting run over by an SUV and my brother passing.  I had heard of Plant Medicine but never had the opportunity to explore it from a trusted source. Toward the end of the year (2023), I was introduced to Mara and Chris through a friend of a friend. They were super responsive. I primarily communicated with Mara and immediately felt comfortable sharing my situation.”

I can not say enough about Mara, Chris, Henrique, Guora, Mother Aya and so many others that contributed to an amazing experience. Mara is soft, kind and giving. From the beginning, I felt like she truly understood a lot of the pain I was going through. She created a healing experience like nothing I have ever experienced. Our Shaman, Henrique Damodara, had an incredible peace about him. It was a small group of five people with three ceremonies. Each ceremony had a different focus with a unique offering of healing. The music was so calming and made me feel safe. 

The last ceremony was about forgiveness, something that will remain with me forever. The experience was pretty indescribable but I can tell you it was better than any therapy EVER. I now understand the medicine of Mother Aya. I went there feeling I needed healing from one thing. Mother Aya knew I needed healing from something that stemmed further back in my history.  When she took it in her hands it felt like she was taking the trauma from the roots. She took it from the roots and emptied it from my body. I never felt so much relief.  I felt like I was able to let go of something that was making such an impact on my life and I was not even aware of it. I felt so much lighter. I was/am able to think clearer. “
