Magical ✨
I’m 21 years old. This was my first time ever doing Ayahuasca or San Pedro. I can’t lie I thought I was in way over my head traveling out of the US all the way to Ecuador seeking inner truth…. I’m so glad I followed my heart and didn’t listen to the doubts… It was an incredible, life changing experience! I know you probably read this from many people and it sounds very cliche. The truth is ultimately you have to show up for your self and no one will do the work for you. I have A LOT of anxiety and I was able to really express my feelings freely without feeling like I was impeding on anyone else. I felt safe to just feel my feelings. The support and kindness of the volunteers as well as your fellow retreat participants and the openness, respect and safety you are surrounded by could not be more conducive to healing. Without even taking a drop of plant medicine you can feel a magic here. It just felt so right that I ended up there and everyone that you meet is exactly who needed to be there. It’s hard not to see that you all are there to reveal something in each-other. The divine is apparent. The food is great, the volunteer work is simple and rewarding and the people are just incredible human beings. It is by no means easy but the support at this place makes the difference. The people truly care and aren’t just acting a part. Take a deep breath and take the plunge you won’t regret it! This is the time to step into your power! I’m so grateful for this experience and will hopefully return to volunteer… maybe I’ll see you then ?! ❤️🌱💫
