Sound of the ceremony
Icaros are sacred songs that Amazonian healers learn directly from Teacher-Plants while practicing diet as in the Rainforest. These songs are the tool to connect participants with Amazonian Spirits and their energies.
Ceremonial setting
The ceremonies are guided by traditional Peruvian curanderos who follow the old ways of working with master plants. That is why the ceremonies are quite strict with an emphasis on your personal and undisturbed connection with ayahuasca.
The shaman will be navigating your experience by singing icaros (sacred songs) throughout the whole ceremony without the use of non traditional musical instruments. During the ceremony, it is restricted for participants to communicate with each other verbally as well as have any physical contact.
This traditional approach with deep respect for the ceremony ensures that every participant can create a unique relationship with ayahuasca and concentrate on self-introspection.
