Shamanic Medicine Women and Ceremony Facilitators: 

The Divine Sight Healing Journey Retreat Ceremony facilitators  are Aiylah Lisa Valkyrie or Jamie Takata Ray.

They are living their RV lifestyle mostly off grid with their 2 dogs and 3 cats, the deer and Texas stars.

Spirit has called them to serve on this mission to Raise the Frequency of the planet. Wherever they go they are called to show up and create community and as Elder Tribal leaders.

 

They both are incredible space holders, Reiki Maser Teachers and are here on this planet for assisting in the Ascension.

Together for many, many lifetimes, they show up and are doing the Work for the Highest Good. In this life they have both held Plant Medicine Ceremony since 2011 and have over 25+ years of combined experience with Plant Medicine.

They are Lightworkers and have a long list of experience with a history of Plant Medicine, Shamanic Journey Work, Reiki and Body Work. They serve with sound healing, music as Medicine, Soul Coaching, Reiki Training, Shamanic Sessions, Energy Healing and Shamanic Practitioner Training.

The format for the Healing Ceremonies and Women’s Circles are structured in a way that feels sacred, safe yet open, fluid yet well practiced, and deeply ingrained in the lineage of our Ancestors. Their Ceremonies are specifically held for the intention of healing, growing as a Soul, and connecting to Something Greater than ourselves.

The Circle is a safe and sacred container for our personal experience, with the assistance of our Guides, Angels, Archangels, Master Teachers, Spirit Animals and our Ancestors. The Facilitators are mere Channels for the Divine Work. During Ceremony they rely on and utilize the wisdom of the Teachers and the Sacred Plants to intuitively guide the journey.

Kambo/Sapo The Great Frog Teacher

 

Book a Kambo Ceremony or Consultation

Kambo is a substance that comes from frog secretion and is a traditional healing and ritual purging method that, for many indigenous cultures in the Amazon, is used as an immunity-boosting medicine. Known in Portuguese as the “vaccine of the forest,” it has also gained renown outside of the Amazon as a powerful treatment for chronic pain and drug dependence.

The qualities and benefits of this medicine are being researched my big pharma for cancer and many other ailments. However, in the forest it was not used as such. It was mainly used to create keen night sight, reduce hunger and help with the hunt. In the Western world it was discovered in the mid 80’s with the first documented treatment by Peter Gorman. 

Since then the healing treatments have been served all over the Western world. There are over 35 active bio peptides in Kambo that with directly with the human immune system. The human body immediately recognizes this medicine and it goes to work on the body within minutes of application. 

It is applied by a trained Practitioner with small Gates, or topical burns to just the epidermis layer of the skin. Then the Medicine is mixed in the Sacred way and applied as Points to the Gates. 

The Shamanic Practitioner holds ceremonial space for the client while the medicine does the Work. It is an incredibly powerful and purgatory medicine. The organs of the liver, pancreas and small intestine enter into a severe detoxification process and these toxins and bile are dumped into the stomach where they are purged out.  Kambo had been know to even remove heavy metals in La Purga. 

Kambo (frog medicine) utilizes the toxins or the ‘frog sweat’ secretions extracted from the giant monkey frog (Phyllomedusa bicolor). These monkey frogs are native to the Amazon forest. The frogs are never harmed in the process and they are widely revered in the native Matses culture. 

The healing power of this frog 🐸 is incredible. Kambo has gained popularity. Great news, Kambo is a legal practice across the US, and therefore its practice in Texas is not illegal. It is also not psychedelic and the client stays fully present in the body.

Sacred Tobacco: Hapé or Rapé

 

Hapé is a very sacred tobacco snuff, made by the indigenous tribes of the Amazon. Hapé, or rapé,’ is pronounced ‘haa-pay’ in English.  It is grown and made in deep reverence for the Sacred tobacco plant and for Mother Earth. It is used for deep connection to the spirits, animals and Mother Nature, it is very cleansing and powerfully healing for the body, mind, and soul. Hapé is made with small tobacco leaves NOT grown for commercialization and is Non GMO. It does not include commercial tobacco with high amounts of nicotine, thus it has none of the negative properties that commercial cigarettes or tobacco products have. 

Tobacco is a very powerful plant, that has the power to heal, and when abused, it can kill and cause detrimental harm. In this way it is a plant that is very revered by the Native people, and is said to be a Grandfather medicine, full of ancient wisdom and the ability to carry our prayers to Creator.

This sacred medicine takes days to make and is a very labor intensive process made in a ceremonial way, out of various Amazonian healing medicinal plants, leaves, trees and seeds from native lands.

While rapé is often made of several Amazonian plants, the core of most rapé snuffs is the tobacco species Nicotiana rustica. This Amazonian tobacco, also known as mapacho, is used extensively in tribal rituals and is much stronger than N. tabacum, the type of tobacco found in cigarettes.

In addition to the tobacco, rapé usually includes the alkaline ashes of other plants such as cinnamon, tonka bean, clover, banana peel, or mint, but many shamans keep the exact ingredients of their particular rapé a secret.

Potential Benefits of Hapé

  • Offers energetic protection that comes from connecting with the tobacco plant, an ally for strength, clarity, and focus.
  • Connects you to the Earth, it is very grounding, centering, awakening, and some blends are super exhilarating.
  • Clears negativity and stills the mind. Helps focus and sharpen the mind..
  • Opens up the 3rd eye and is said to decalcify the pineal gland (which naturally hardens and calcifies with age and exposure to fluoride).
  • Clears a person or space of distracting, or negative energies. It is used often in preparation for intention setting.
  • Detoxes both body and mind and clears your energetic field. Because of this, rapé is often used in conjunction with ayahuasca ceremonies.
  • Clears sinuses of mucus and bacteria, thereby helping to combat colds and respiratory ailments. Purifies and cleanses the sinuses and respiratory tract. Can help heal sinus issues and reduce mucus.
  • Provides a calming, grounding effect on the emotions that lasts much longer than the initial intense sensation.
  • Can be used in conjunction with other treatments for addiction and mental illness.
  • Supports the digestive system, helps the bowels into their natural flow. 

 

The Experience of Using Hapé 

The tobacco and other ingredients are ground into a fine powder, which is then blown or snorted high into each of the nostril cavities through a ceremonial pipe made of bone or bamboo. 

It is ideal at first to utilize this medicine while being Served with a two-person pipe and an experienced shaman or practitioner administering the snuff. After you are more experienced with the facilitation, there are also pipes designed for use by one person for yourself. Both styles of pipes are available at Ceremony. 

Rapé is a cleansing medicine, and has many different blends so the effects after taking it vary, you may experience a huge buzzing feeling, like when you eat a whole bit of Wasabi, which you feel in your third eye, crown chakra and pineal gland. Sometimes stronger Hapé have deeper side effects such as vomiting, sweating, and diarrhea.

Although this is an admittedly uncomfortable part of the experience, some people say the pain is an integral part of the spiritual and physical cleansing process. By purging deep-seated toxins you come out of the experience feeling calmer, more focused, and more in line with your true self.

This sacred medicine comes from many indigenous tribes. 

Sananga 

 

This medicine is still used by many tribes in the heart of the Amazon, but its benefits are reaching the rest of the world as these tribes open up ceremonies to outsiders and train those who are interested in the administration of the eye drops. Sananga can be offered in conjunction with Ayahuasca or Kambo or as a stand-alone treatment. Sananga shows powerful potential to treat a spectrum of physical and psychospiritual illnesses:

  • Treats and prevents ocular diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts, farsightedness, nearsightedness, astigmatism, and blindness
  • Detoxifies the body
  • Increases visual perception and enhances colors
  • Clears long-standing inner anger
  • Used in conjunction, helps with mental disorders such as addiction, depression, and anxiety
  • Resets energetic field
  • Treats spiritual diseases (“panema”) caused by negative energies in the body. These spiritual diseases can accumulate in a person’s energetic body and make a person depressed and anxious.

The human eye is a particularly sensitive organ, which means a sananga ceremony can be painful. These sacred, shamanic eye drops cause an intense burning that usually lasts a few minutes, but experienced practitioners say this pain is an important part of the healing process. Shamans advise you to breathe deeply into the intensity to gain the most from its benefits—it is by leaning into the pain that you can cleanse not only your eyes but your mind and spirit, as well. This medicine can be known to open the third eye and crown chakras.  

Once the pain leaves and the sananga is no longer in your body, you’re left with a feeling of intense clarity of purpose and an immense sense of relaxation. Because of its cleansing properties, Sanaga is often used in preparation for an ayahuasca or Plant Medicine ceremony.

For traditional Amazonian tribespeople, Sananga is a powerful eye medicine used to sharpen night vision. For modern seekers of spiritual healing, however, Sananga is often used as a precursor to ayahuasca ceremonies by the Kaxinawa and Matsés tribes of Brazil, these powerful eye drops have a healing power that’s more energetic than physical, and that has the capacity to increase spiritual insight in the minds of those who use it. Sananga is a potent medicine.

We will build/assemble our circle outside and the altar will be set up together before we sit for Ceremony; it will be taken down before the Closing Ceremony.

The Integration Circle after Ceremony Is Mandatory 

We hold an Integration Circle the day after Ceremony before he closed circle.

We offer an ongoing group chat  which says open for decompression  after Ceremony. It is for the participants, hosted by the facilitators. 

During a psychedelic experience, many people have intimate realizations about themselves, their relationships, and their bad patterns or habits. The word “realization” sounds incredibly internal and low-impact compared to what a psychedelic experience actually can be, which researchers liken to a major, life-changing event.

Some spiritual practices mentioned in the resource Psychedelic Healing include yoga, meditation, chanting, and prayer and Reiki. The meditative state evoked by these practices can quiet our minds and help us see what we really want out of life.

Journaling can be a helpful exercise both during or immediately after a psychedelic experience.

Whatever you write, if you find that writing has been helpful, don’t stop—make it a daily ritual. Many people have credited important breakthroughs to free-writing exercises. Philosopher, meditation practitioner, and Eastern philosophy advocate Alan Watts is quoted saying, “Once you get the message, hang up the telephone.” Psychedelics can provide you profound and important understanding,  but that they can only take you so far.. It’s only after you ‘hang up the phone’ that the real work of personal and spiritual development begins.
