Ayahuasca Insights

  • Can I have a heart attack?⁠
  • Hyperventilate and faint?⁠
  • Die during a ceremony?⁠
  • Will I suffer if I have high/low blood pressure?⁠

These are questions we get often…⁠
⁠
The truth is that these issues are rarely (if ever) an actual concern. (we have an in-house doctor, overseeing every ceremony and the health condition of the participants before, during and after).⁠
⁠
So we check to ensure that your heart is in an okay condition to participate, and a smaller amount of medicine is given to you while we monitor your reaction. ⁠
⁠
However, your heart may break..⁠
⁠
Open.⁠
⁠
This is the biggest risk.⁠
⁠
That the amount of love (for yourself and life) that you thought you could hold, gets exponentially increased.⁠
⁠
And this is hard for many of us!⁠
⁠
A lot of people don’t know what it’s like to let the source of creation (love) flow through their body without walls.⁠
⁠
It feels as if you will die from the intensity of emotion and bliss that the medicine can take you to.⁠
⁠
And in the process, it shows you that it is okay.⁠
⁠
It teaches you that it is by opening, that life can flow in.⁠
⁠
That being vulnerable is to be alive⁠, and that there’s nothing to fear.⁠
⁠
For there’s not a single part of you that has ever been damaged, despite what they may have made you think.⁠
⁠
At the core, you are whole.⁠
⁠
Love and loved.⁠
⁠
Your heart will not break down,⁠
⁠
but it may break open.⁠
