Corazón de Acero - Pennsylvania
About Us
At Corazón de Acero our mission is Truth, Love, Gratitude and all the virtues that give thanks and honor this life we have been given and that aid us in cultivating a more peaceful and beautiful existence. Huachuma is a Truth teller and reveals what is. We hurt ourselves when we refuse to face the lies that wreak havoc on our bodies, minds, and souls. Many of us have adopted narratives and systems that not only damage us, but also the world around us. Shadow projections often appear as we constantly point the finger at the “other” while we forget there are three fingers pointing back at us. A wise medicine man once said that “we must first focus on the war within ourselves, once we end the war inside us, the war outside will cease to exist.” The mind is our battleground. Huachuma is a vessel of peace that is used to lay down the violence we wage against ourselves; and this in turn helps to heal the world. We serve this medicine to uproot the lies that permeate the consciousness of each individual who sits with us. It was said that you will know the Truth, and the Truth will set you free. We believe this at Corazón de Acero. Ultimately it is up to you whether you want to pursue and align with what is True. The medicine of Huachuma is a teacher of the Way and helps us to reconnect with that small still voice within and practice discernment in all areas of our lives. It is an absolute honor to carry this medicine and share it with those that are seeking to align themselves with the Truth.
At Corazón de Acero, everyone is welcome. Each person in this world has a story and much to teach and share. There is no need to wear a mask or silence what is knocking on the doors of your heart. Corazón de Acero is a space for open discourse and genuine respect for others and what they have to say. May we all learn to listen better and to think before we speak, that our words may ring strong and true.
We claim no allegiance to any institution, belief system, or movement. At Corazón de Acero we are dedicated to only the natural way of all things. We make no promise of anything and offer no expectations when it comes to working with the medicine. We are aware that your journey with the medicine will be subjective and tailored to your specific needs at the time. The medicine will connect with you just as you are and only asks you to be honest about whatever it is you are seeking. This medicine is a powerful teacher that has been of service to the world for thousands of years. We at Corazón de Acero trust in the Way that the medicine will lead. We allow the medicine to work purely with you, providing a space that is free from attachments and any set agenda. With that being said, it is our utmost priority to keep the space clean and safe for your journey and to guide the ceremony with music/prayers that come straight from the heart. The medicine at Corazón de Acero is sacred and held with much seriousness and reverence and also with much laughter and joy. May your experience with us reflect that. If you are looking for a space to sit with the sacred plant medicine of Huachuma for whatever reason it may be calling you, we would be honored to have you. Thank you for your trust. You are loved and seen. Keep going.

Garrett holds a beautiful and deeply grounded space. He creates an atmosphere of openness and genuine sharing, where love and understanding naturally blossom.
I’ve had the honor of sitting with him formally on two occasions and spending time in his presence a handful of other times. He’s a gifted musician and a truly caring, intuitive facilitator.
If you feel even the slightest call, I wholeheartedly recommend taking the opportunity.
I have been blessed to both host and participate in a huachuma ceremony, and it is truly magical to experience it from both sides. Starting with the facilitators, they are some of the most authentic and kindest souls I have the privilege of knowing. There was intention in the way they cared for everyone. When I hosted, I did not partake in the medicine, however, I could still see and feel the energy that the grandfather medicine was working. There was so much love and gratitude within the container held. The music that played (for over 10 hours) took my heart and soul on an international journey. The experience was so profound that I knew I wanted to participate more in-depth the next time the opportunity presented itself. Once I was able to participate, I was able to walk away from that experience with my soul filled exponentially with love and gratitude, and an intense desire to shift the stagnant energies out of my life. The music mixed with the medicine shifted my lifelong healing journey to a place of abundance, acceptance, and reaping the fruits of my labor. Garrett, Justina, and their entire team of divine souls hold a container of love, safety, healing, comfort, and growth through a weaving of huachuma, music medicine, and ceremony that is respectful in every way from harvest, to processing, to ceremony, they hold prayer and a stewardship. I highly recommend this ceremony if it calls to you.
