🜃 Plant & Sacred Allies I Work With

The medicines I walk with are ancient, living technologies – ways of remembering our wholeness, our connection with all life, and the truth that only the present moment really exists. They invite us to live more fully and unbound, shedding layers of conditioning, fear and old stories. As Carl Jung said, “The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.”

These medicines are living, conscious beings – elders, teachers and allies. This path is sacred to me, and I am committed to working with deep respect for the land, people and lineages that hold them.

Below are the plant and sacred medicines I work with most often. In many cases, I offer ceremonies, online or in‑person dietas, and plant medicine retreats with them.

🜁 Ayahuasca – Master Plant Teacher

Ayahuasca is a traditional Amazonian brew made from the Ayahuasca vine (Banisteriopsis caapi) and companion plants such as Psychotria Viridis, regarded in many Indigenous traditions as a master teacher.

People often come to Ayahuasca to help with:

Seeing the roots of trauma, repeating patterns and family dynamics more clearly
Meeting grief, shame and fear that have been buried or avoided
Re‑orienting life toward deeper purpose, integrity and spiritual connection
Receiving guidance around relationships, work, creativity and soul path
Softening self‑criticism and remembering themselves as part of something greater

I work with Ayahuasca in plant medicine retreats and dietas in Peru, in small, trauma‑aware groups with careful preparation, screening and integration support. I only work with Ayahuasca in highly held, carefully screened containers with thorough preparation, medical screening and integration. This is never a casual or quick path, and we always begin with a detailed conversation about whether it is appropriate and safe at this time.

🜄 Blue Lotus – Dream, Vision & Subtle Awakening

Blue Lotus is an ancient ally for relaxation, dreamwork and subtle spiritual opening.

People come to Blue Lotus to help with:

Deepening sleep, dreams and symbolic/temple dreamwork
Soothing anxiety, mental overactivity and tension in the body
Entering subtle meditative or visionary states without intensity
Exploring sensual presence and connection to their own erotic current
Cultivating a quiet, mystical space for prayer, divination or inner listening

I offer Blue Lotus in carefully dosed ceremonial settings, with screening and clear intention, as this plant is not suitable for everyone.

🜃 Bobinsana – Amazonian Heart Medicine

Bobinsana is a gentle yet powerful heart‑opening plant from the Amazon, often prepared as tea or strong tincture.

Many people come to Bobinsana to help with:

Healing heartbreak, loss and long‑held sadness
Opening the heart to receive and give love more freely
Deepening dreamwork, intuition and subtle connection to the unseen
Gently releasing old stories, beliefs and emotional armouring
Finding grounded calm, tenderness and courage to feel again

I offer Bobinsana in ceremonies, home dietas and plant medicine retreats/Amazon dietas, using my own strong tinctures and preparations made in small batches with traditional methods.

🜂 Ceremonial Cacao – Medicine of the Heart

Ceremonial cacao is known as a heart medicine and has been worked with by Indigenous cultures for many generations.

People often come to cacao to help with:

Creating a soft, safe space to feel and express emotions
Supporting grief, break‑ups, transitions and tender heart seasons
Nourishing the nervous system and easing stress and overwhelm
Dropping from the mind into the body before ritual, therapy or creative work
Integrating powerful experiences (plant medicine, Kambo, retreats) in a gentle way

I work with home‑grown and wild ceremonial‑grade cacao, fermented, dried and prepared according to traditional recipes, in circles, ceremonies and integration spaces, both online and in person.

🜃 Iboga / Sacred Wood – Deep Reset & Pattern Work

Iboga – sometimes referred to here as sacred wood medicine – is a powerful plant teacher traditionally used in Central and West African lineages.

People feel called to iboga to help with:

Facing core patterns, addictions and self‑sabotage with clear eyes
Understanding “root stories” from childhood and lineage that shape their life
Initiation‑level change when other avenues feel exhausted
Resetting their relationship to substances, behaviours or dynamics that feel binding
Stepping into a more honest, sober and soul‑aligned way of living

I only work with Iboga in highly held, carefully screened containers with thorough preparation, medical screening and integration. This is never a casual or quick path, and we always begin with a detailed conversation about whether it is appropriate and safe at this time.

🜃 Kambo – Cleansing Frog Medicine

Kambo is a non‑psychedelic frog medicine (the secretion of the Phyllomedusa bicolor frog), applied to the skin to work through the lymphatic and circulatory systems.

People come to Kambo to help with:

Deep physical detoxification and clearing stagnation from the body
Supporting immune strength, resilience and recovery from depletion
Shifting out of low energy, apathy or feeling “stuck”
Releasing dense emotional and energetic build‑up, including fear and anger
Calling in courage, clarity and a stronger sense of inner power

I offer 1–1 Kambo sessions, my Restorative Reset – 28‑Day Kambo Container, and Kambo practitioner training for those called to this medicine path. When possible, I harvest Kambo myself with a trusted tribe in Peru; when I cannot, I only use medicine harvested by me and prepared in the traditional way, ensuring the frog is never harmed.

🜂 Rapéh (Hapé) – Grounding & Prayer

Rapéh (hapé) is a sacred snuff made from tobacco and other Amazonian plants, traditionally blown into the nostrils through a ceremonial pipe.

People come to rapéh to help with:

Grounding quickly into the body and present moment
Clearing mental chatter before prayer, meditation or journeying
Releasing tears, yawns and subtle purges that want to move
Connecting with the elements and the Earth in a tangible way
Anchoring intentions at the start or close of ceremony

I use rapéh sparingly and intentionally, within ceremony or preparation/integration contexts, and always teach respectful use rather than casual consumption.

🜁 Sananga – Vision & Energetic Cleansing

Sananga is a potent eye‑drop medicine made from Amazonian roots, used traditionally for both physical and energetic “vision”.

People come to Sananga to help with:

Clearing heaviness, irritation or “fog” from the eyes and energetic field
Sharpening physical and intuitive vision before ceremonies or journeys
Releasing stored emotion held in the face, head and upper chakras
Resetting focus and presence when feeling scattered or disconnected
Supporting integration and clarity after deep inner work

Sananga can be intense for a few minutes, so I introduce it gently, with explanation, consent and a clear purpose.

🜁 Teaching, Mentorship & Walking the Medicine Path

My teaching is especially for people who feel the stirrings of the medicine carrier, priestess, oracle or healer within – even if they don’t yet use those words. You might feel pulled toward plant medicine, the moon, your dreams or your body’s wisdom, and know there is more of you waiting to awaken.

In these spaces, we explore:

Divine feminine wisdom – cycles, intuition, boundaries, power and softness
Shamanic tools – journeying, working with guides, altars, elements and ceremony
Body, pleasure and life‑force – meeting shame and contraction so your natural sensuality, creativity and erotic current can move more freely
Temple space – devotional, earth‑rooted containers where you can remember your inner priestess, oracle or medicine keeper, without performance or pretence

Teaching can happen through:

1–1 mentorship and apprenticeships
Group journeys and workshops (online and in person)
Training woven into plant dietas and plant medicine retreats

This is not about copying the path of another. It is about you becoming more deeply and unapologetically yourself – learning to trust your body, your vision, your heart and your relationship with the unseen, so that your life itself becomes your temple and your medicine.

🜄 How I Hold This Work

These medicines are not tools or quick fixes – they are relationships and responsibilities. My commitment is to:

Honour Indigenous wisdom and lineages as best I can
Protect the plants, animals and territories involved
Work in a trauma‑aware, consent‑based and grounded way
Offer strong preparation and integration so any experience can be digested and lived, not just visited

I moved back to the UK from Peru in 2025 after five years living in the Amazon jungle, following more than two decades of travelling back and forth to sit with my teachers and learn directly from the plants and the land. Over 26+ years on this path, training in the Amazon and Andes with Indigenous healers and plant teachers, my life has become inseparable from this work – I hold my days, my body and my choices as a kind of living temple, a continuous ceremony of listening to spirit, nature and the deep feminine current that moves through everything.

Where possible, I prepare the medicines myself, using traditional methods I’ve been taught, so I can stand behind the integrity, purity and energetic quality of what you receive.

If you feel called to any of these medicines – or simply want to explore which ally or pathway might be right for you at this time – you are welcome to reach out.
