How should I prepare?

Ayahuasca is a powerful healing potion, and preparations for working with plant medicines should not be taken lightly. The plants will begin working with you before your arrival, you may notice subtle shifts as the time draws near. Physical, mental, and spiritual preparations must be taken into consideration.

For two weeks prior to your arrival, omit alcohol, street drugs, red meat (including pork, tuna, and eel), coffee, salt, sugar, and sex. This includes fried and greasy food, spicy and excessively salty food, fermented, pickled, and aged food, canned and processed food, products high in gluten, soy, protein, and yeast-based products, and anything with refined sugar. Please let us know at the time of booking if you are on any medications that may be contraindicative of working with any of the plants.

Begin to set your intentions by writing them down. Why do you want to work with ayahuasca? What do you hope to achieve through this work? You should return to these intentions daily, meditating on them until your first ceremony.

Be prepared to surrender to the process. Your mind may have its own ideas of how your experience will unfold, especially if you are accustomed to having a sense of control in your daily life, but know that the plants work in mysterious and unexpected ways. By fully surrendering to the healing process, you remove blockages and resistances that may give you difficulties on your path.

One day before drinking ayahuasca in the morning drink one glass of water with one clove of garlic or a leaf of ajosacha in order to protect and strengthen your heart and your immune system, and purify your blood. Then drink a half a liter of water with seven leaves of achiote or annatto to help to cleanse the kidneys and liver.

What should I plan for afterwards?

Ideally you will take extra time away from work.
