The Work with Ayahuasca<\/h2>\n

At Feather Crown, ayahuasca ceremonies are conducted in a grounded, safe, and respectful way, guided by an experienced indigenous elder and supported by a trained team of facilitators.<\/p>\n

The ceremony takes place in a spacious circular temple, designed specifically for this work. Before the ceremony, participants receive detailed preparation materials, and on the day itself, a group briefing is held to answer questions and ensure everyone feels ready.<\/p>\n

In the evening, the ceremony begins with the serving of ayahuasca. Participation is always voluntary\u2014healing can also unfold without drinking. Afterward, the space becomes quiet, and participants rest on comfortable mattresses, allowing the process to develop naturally.<\/p>\n

As the effects deepen, the shaman works with traditional instruments and sacred songs (icaros), guiding the process and supporting each participant individually. Throughout the night, he performs energetic cleansings according to the tradition.<\/p>\n

Each participant is also invited for a personal cleansing (limpia), where the shaman works directly with them using plants and traditional techniques to restore balance and clear heavy energies.<\/p>\n

Integration<\/h2>\n

The following morning, a guided integration session is held with translation, where participants can share their experience, ask questions, and begin to understand the process more clearly.<\/p>\n

Private conversations with the shaman or facilitators are also available for those who need more personal support or clarification.<\/p>\n

Integration is an essential part of the process. It helps bring the experience into everyday life in a grounded and meaningful way.<\/p>\n

The Process<\/h2>\n

Each ceremony builds on the previous one. The first ceremony often focuses on cleansing\u2014physical, emotional, and energetic\u2014and may involve purging.<\/p>\n

In the following ceremonies, participants usually enter the process with greater trust and openness. This allows for deeper work, clearer insight, and a more conscious connection with the experience.<\/p>\n

This gradual process is an important part of traditional ayahuasca work, where each ceremony has its place and purpose.<\/p>\n

Ayahuasca Brew<\/h2>\n

Our ayahuasca is prepared traditionally over fire, using only two plants: the ayahuasca vine Banisteriopsis caapi<\/strong> and the accompanying leaf Diplopterys cabrerana<\/strong> or Psychotria viridis<\/strong> (chakruna).<\/p>\n

This traditional combination allows for deep, clear, and meaningful experiences. We work with selected varieties of the vine that come from established healing lineages.<\/p>\n

No additional or inappropriate admixtures are used. The medicine is prepared with care, respect, and attention to quality.<\/p>\n
