That night was terrifying, but it taught me so much. I saw the power of unconditional love, the strength of community, and the beauty of surrendering to the unknown.

Even now, I carry the lessons with me. It was a journey through darkness to find the light.
December 31, 2024 at 12:00 AM
I cupped my navel, repeating to myself: You can’t have me. I choose love. My body still shook, still buzzed, as if I might take flight.

But something shifted. The darkness loosened its grip. By 5 AM, the buzzing finally stopped. I was exhausted—but I was free.
December 31, 2024 at 12:00 AM
As I sat back down, I felt the wings on my back subside. It was as if Grandmother Ayahuasca herself was working through me, showing me the contrast between light and dark, fear and love, isolation and community. It was overwhelming, but profoundly beautiful.

The shaman said I needed to move the energy. With their help, I walked slowly around the fire. Others came up to support me, offering love and encouragement.

Slowly, I started to feel my feet again. My body began to settle. The buzzing eased, but the lessons were just beginning.
December 31, 2024 at 12:00 AM
The buzzing didn’t stop. Hours passed—8 PM turned to midnight, then 2 AM. My shoulders kept moving, my body vibrating as I sat there, unable to control it.

Then, something broke through. I began to cry, spitting out black, clear insect wings. I was stunned.
December 31, 2024 at 12:00 AM
Then the shaman asked me to take another cup. I was scared, but I trusted the process. The facilitators and others were incredibly kind, praying over me, checking on me, supporting me.

But this was something I had to face on my own. The ceremony had just begun.
December 31, 2024 at 12:00 AM
I tried to purge using hape, but nothing worked. The shaman came to cleanse me, but the buzzing only grew stronger.

I couldn’t feel my feet—they felt like insect legs. My body kept moving, shaking as if it had a will of its own. I was terrified, trapped in the experience.
December 31, 2024 at 12:00 AM
My body began buzzing—like a bee. It wasn’t just a sensation; I was buzzing. My shoulders moved up and down uncontrollably, as if wings were trying to burst from my back.

I couldn’t stop the sound coming out of my mouth, this deep, vibrating buzz. It was surreal—and terrifying.

Thank you so much for your kind words! 🙏🏽 It truly is a blessing to have those special people by your side, guiding and supporting you through such a transformative experience. Safe hands and trusted companions make all the difference. Wishing you all the best on your own journey.

I hope more people get the opportunity to experience life like I have. It’s not easy to describe, but the growth, the clarity—it’s life-changing. I wouldn’t trade that trip for anything.
December 30, 2024 at 7:36 PM
I’ll always cherish the time I had on that trip and the lessons it taught me. As someone with ADHD, it was even more impactful. It pushed me to accept my flaws and finally seek the help I knew I needed. I’m grateful for that journey every single day.

I know this doesn’t sound super cohesive, but it’s so hard to explain what it’s like to experience your own life with a completely new perspective. If I did it again, I’d follow the same approach: have a trip sitter, research everything, and take notes in a journal.
December 30, 2024 at 7:36 PM
Do I still get stressed at work? Absolutely. But it doesn’t feel like the end of the world anymore. Like when I was a kid, yesterday’s problems don’t linger in my mind. It’s all just part of the flow.
December 30, 2024 at 7:36 PM
I enjoy the simple things again, not because they’re new, but because I know they won’t last forever. I see them as unique moments of my experience, and I’m grateful for that. No one else will ever know what it’s like to be me, and that perspective is everything.
December 30, 2024 at 7:36 PM
That trip taught me how small and insignificant I am—in the best way. It reminded me that I’m just another traveler, navigating life like everyone else. Now, I appreciate things differently. A morning coffee is a gift, and my dogs make me emotional in the best way.
December 30, 2024 at 7:36 PM
I realized I was the same person, and that we’re all just trying to figure it out. It eased my stresses so much. Before, I loathed myself. I was successful, but never felt like I could live up to my own expectations. The weight I carried was breaking me.
December 30, 2024 at 7:36 PM
That moment? It was everything. The humbling, dizzying mix of feeling so small, yet so incredibly full of wonder. And in the midst of it all, I thought, I hope I carry this with me forever.
December 30, 2024 at 7:30 PM
But outside? That was something else. The sun was setting, and the world felt vast in a way I’d never known before. Watching the sky stretch, I realized: This wasn’t just for me. This moment—this sunset—was for everyone.
December 30, 2024 at 7:30 PM
Meanwhile, my buddy was somewhere else, wandering through his own journey. Music in his ears, lost in the flow.
December 30, 2024 at 7:30 PM
Inside, earlier, everything felt different. The room had closed in on me, reduced to just a few things—a plant, a coat rack. But they weren’t just things anymore. They were… companions. Alive, somehow, existing in this strange bubble of my own.
December 30, 2024 at 7:30 PM
They were alive, like something out of a Harry Potter scene, shifting in and out of existence.

And those palm plants? They weren’t swaying in the wind. They were waving at me. Not just moving with the breeze—but inviting me in. Like old friends, welcoming me back. “Come closer,” they seemed to say.
December 30, 2024 at 7:30 PM
We didn’t leave. We just moved between that spot and a grassy patch nearby. It wasn’t random. It was like some invisible force was gently guiding us, pulling us back and forth in this rhythm. The bricks around us—at first just bricks—shifted. They weren’t just bricks anymore.
