WACHUMA MICRODOSING





Microdosing with Wachuma allows the person to heal and balance all the bodies 
(physical, mental-emotional, spiritual), through dreams, during rest time, in a softer 
and longer way than through ceremonies where you ingest higher doses that require 
of a guide.  Microdosing allows for a personal therapy, subtle, that does not interfere 
with your daily activities.  Depending on how the person evolves and opens to the 
Medicine, the time and dose may vary.  It is recommended to take it for at least one to 
three months, to see clear results.

WORKSHOP ON PERSONAL OFFERINGS TO MOTHER EARTH


Learn how to make your own offering to Mother Earth
in reciprocity for all her Love and Sustenance”


In this workshop, each participant will experience the creation of his/her own offering, his/her own sacred geometry for the Mother that takes care of our daily sustenance, Mother Earth.  She needs our love and gratitude, that we feed her, as she feeds us and gives us shelter.  This simple ritual has a deep   significance within us, it reconnects us with the simplicity and beauty of nature, that relaxes us, brings inner peace to ourselves and allows us to be in that needed silence to be able to look inside, to raise our consciousness.

This offering's most elevate purpose is to propitiate the union among all living creatures, the Cosmos and Nature. Its everyday use is to ask for favors or to thank for what has been received. An Offering in the Andean world is the best way of reciprocity with Mother Earth, giving her back the best fruits with which she provides us, each participant becomes the offering itself. Afterwards, this offering will be burned, buried in Mother Earth (Mama Pacha) or offered to Mother Ocean (Mama Qocha), following ancestral rites.

CHANUNPA CEREMONY – SACRED LAKOTA PIPE


Master of Masters, always opening, always softening, always IN the prayer, never behind it or beside it. There are many who hunger for this instrument to touch and to have it touch them. All who come in a good way, no matter how small or large a group, are welcome and receive its impossible and mysterious blessing, as it becomes the engineer of the change and the prayer they need in their life.  Chanunpa is very mysterious and we cannot know the ways in which it causes everything to come into alignment with ourselves and our prayers and all the prayers that come through us and to us. We are in the midst of all of those prayers, which is what our prayer is as a Chanunpa CARRIER...
We carry the Chanunpa for any size group.  A whole village, if necessary. We ask only that each person who comes expresses their gratitude, open their heart about what is troubling them, and ask for help. We do not pray for outcomes for others. And we don't tell long stories. The spirit of the Chanunpa knows who we are and what we are exactly....this is precisely the reason this instrument of power is powerful. It is never imprecise or haphazard or in error or unclear. And, with the blessing it has made for itself, it is absolutely aware of our true intention and the architecture of our correction on our path in each and every moment, past, present and future. 
It is the Great Medicine of true LISTENING and true HEARING. It provides the point of focus for all expansion and the means of expansion for every point of focus, every time, without fail, forever.  The purpose of community and circles is to redistribute the burden of these changes to each according to his or her ability to contain their part in each and every moment. In this way, through the blessing of the instrument by not only the prayers but the impeccable visible living prayers and practices of our brothers and sisters in this way, the instrument becomes more powerful, the prayer more true and more visible. 
"Show me your people"....That is the question and that is the answer.  We must stay in the prayer of the Chanunpa and create family, community and circles of authentic hearts and actions in every moment, so that more human beings who ARE the Sacred Pipe can go out into their worlds and BE the living prayer, thus instructing others through their embodiment.

TESTIMONIAL CHRISTINA TAVERA - GODDESSES AND PRIESTESSES OF THE NORTH


Thank you for my great adventure to the land of my SELF

"My trip to Peru with MaryAnn this February was so much more than I could ever have imagined.  I felt like I was being held with the most delicate of care and love the entire time I was there.  The trip was very organic and flowed with what appeared to be effortless grace.  All the aspects of the trip where thoughtfully considered by her, with great attention to; appropriate accommodations, sufficient time for self-reflection, connection with the elements, extraordinary food and the perfect amount of adventure.  I feel like I got to know myself through this trip.  By reconnecting with the earth and the ocean, I found my own essence.  Through discovering the history of Peru's ancient cultures I rediscovered that which is my birthright as a woman and as a spiritual being.  There was also a great amount of laughter throughout our trip.  MaryAnn has a contagious lightness and love of joy.  Conversation with her is easy and humor is almost always nearby.  She is straightforward and compassionate in her instructions and recommendations, so much so, one may forget at times that you are on a personal vision quest.  But she was consistently focused on my healing.  Throughout the traveling she gently reminded me to breath, to place attention to my words, my stance, my experience.  Not a moment was wasted.  As the trip progressed and experiences multiplied, she gently encouraged me out of thinking and into experiencing the moment.  I am grateful for that instruction now that I am home, with more time to re-experience those moments in my memory and to contemplate the depth of their meaning to me.

I am not the same.
I did not want to be the same.
I got so much more than I ever thought possible.

I am grateful to my dear healer, intuitive guide, and loving teacher MaryAnn".

SHARING THE TEACHINGS OF THE GRANDMOTHERS AND GRANDFATHERS



INITIATION IN THE TEACHINGS

"Sharing so many days with Mary Ann has been a magical experience, learning from a woman with so much experience in the path of sacred plants and ancestral ceremonies, has been a privilege. Respect towards nature, prayers, offerings and learning to read the signs in nature have been some of the many teachings that remain in my heart and will never forget. Sweatlodge is a ceremony and therapy in which we should all constantly participate, feeling the earth as a live being and leaving behind all the layers that we do not need anymore, it is an experience of integration and collective work that shows us the way in which we must live our life.

Thank you Mary Ann for believing in Magic! ".

What Mary Ann has shared with us has been generous and sincere

" I feel one thing has taken us to another until finally the time for learning came. I feel deep gratitude for learning with Mary Ann, whom I consider a friend, sister, guide and teacher. This process has been more than what I expected: not only learning the ways and traditions but sharing time to review each detail, outside and within oneself to tune into a conscious and magical life, reconnecting with the invisible world. What Mary Ann has shared with us has been generous and sincere.


Thank you very much! ".

White is pure light reflected in our heart

"White is pure light reflected in our Heart, the doors and paths open completely, beauty in your song and your wisdom delivered in each word you say, it was wonderful to share such sweet energy of growth, understanding, love and healing that you provided us with since your arrival in Tarapoto, and all through the process we experienced, I am eternally grateful ".

With love

For all my relations

"It is difficult to explain in words the healing and purification we go through in a sweatlodge. The cleansing your body and spirit experience is of great help to find inner balance and reconnect with our Mother Earth (Pachamama-Pachamama), from her womb. When we understand the essence of the sacred relation with our Mother, we can create sacred relations with all that surround us: plants, animals, stones and specially our brothers and sisters, knowing we are all part of a sacred family.

Urpi Yay Sonqo Yay Mary Ann for sharing and providing such wonderful medicine and for your wise advice. Many blessings in your path, and continue shining as always".

¡For all my relations!

Ceremonies of Love "Munay"

A large part of our happiness comes from the delight of our relationships with others. Once we begin to notice the ways in which our interactions enrich our lives, we realize that there is so much that we have to celebrate. Ultimately it is our connection with the people in our lives that helps us connect to the happiness that lies within us. Appreciating our loved ones and what they bring to our lives today will allow us to find that joy in each and every moment. You may be in the mood to celebrate today and seek ways to share your joy and gratitude with others.

  • Ceremony of Welcome
When we welcome an individual into our family—whether that individual is human or animal—a transformation takes place, a shift in the energy of the family unit. The birth or adoption of a child, the introduction of a spouse or stepparent, or the choice to bring a pet into our home can mark a new direction in the life of the family as a whole. A simple welcoming ritual can serve as the platform upon which every member of the household, old and new, gathers together to joyfully mark this new phase of family life. Encouraging every member of the family to take part in the ritual will foster a sense of unity and help members come together to grow into the new family paradigm as a group.


  • Ceremony of Spiritual Union
When two souls meet an explosion of unconditional love swirls around them and they KNOW they are soul mates…
Loving and committing to another person is a spiritual process we assume together. The true test of our love comes from our willingness to explore this world with another person; to not only share in the delights that we encounter but also to negotiate the bumps in the road together. By being able to love and care for someone else with an open heart, we will find that we can reach a greater level of personal transformation, evolving along our path and learning powerful lessons about ourselves that we might not otherwise be able to do on our own.

  • Ceremony of Evolution / Growth
While expressing our love without any strings attached, others will be grateful to us for loving them in conscious ways, specially our children when they are growing into adolescents searching for their own independence in decision-making about their lives. Taking care of our emotional needs allows us to form healthy, interdependent relationships. The people in our lives are there as companions on our journey and have their own purposes to fulfill. They are not here to keep us constantly entertained or meet our every emotional need. When we can relate to people in a way that our relationships add to our already full lives instead of becoming the center of our focus, we create interdependence instead of dependence.

  • Ceremony of Farewell
When the time to say farewell to a loved one comes, it is important to help his/her spirit to depart to the Light, to leave this physical plane, surrounded by love, peace and joy, as he/her is returning to his/her origin, to the source of all creation, where we all come from. His/her energy will always be with us, it does not go away from our lives, the connection is forever. The transformation from the physical to the light, to become pure energy, is sublime and beautiful and to accompany a member of our family through this trance is a demonstration of unconditional love, of detachment and brings inner peace to those staying in this earthly plane.
