About Us
Ancient Awakenings Temple of the Healing Arts (AATHA) is an entheogenic church that passionately embraces the profound healing potential found within the use of psilocybin-containing mushrooms as a sacrament. Through this sacred practice, individuals are offered an opportunity for transformative experiences that can lead to personal growth, self-discovery, and emotional healing.
At AATHA, we understand the importance of providing a secure and nurturing environment for these transformative journeys. Our dedicated space is designed to promote comfort, safety, and a deep sense of tranquility. The atmosphere is carefully crafted to facilitate a profound connection with the self, others, and the spiritual realms that lie beyond ordinary perception.
Central to our offerings are the profoundly sacred ceremonies we conduct. These ceremonies are conducted under the guidance of experienced facilitators who create a space of reverence and respect. The ceremonies are designed to open the doors of perception and guide participants on a journey of self-exploration, emotional release, and spiritual awakening.
In addition to the sacred ceremonies, we believe in the power of holistic healing and offer a range of complementary tools and practices. Yoga, a timeless practice that unites the body, mind, and spirit, is incorporated into our offerings. We also offer ecstatic dance, allowing participants to explore free movement without judgment. Individuals can cultivate inner strength, flexibility, and balance through various yoga and dance techniques, further enhancing their transformative experiences.
Integrations, meditation, breathwork, sound healing, and chakra activation/alignment are also integral components of our program. These practices provide valuable tools for grounding, introspection, and integration of the insights gained during the ceremonies. By offering a space for stillness, mindfulness, and deep reflection, we facilitate a more profound integration of transformative experiences.
Furthermore, we understand the significance of addressing the shadows within ourselves, and thus we facilitate thought-provoking discussions on shadow work. These discussions provide a platform for individuals to delve into the hidden aspects of their psyche, embracing and integrating the shadow for more complete and authentic self-expression.
Nourishment is an essential aspect of the healing journey, and we prioritize it by serving organic vegetarian meals. These meals are consciously prepared with ingredients that promote vitality, clarity, and overall well-being. By nourishing the body, we acknowledge the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit, creating a harmonious environment for growth and transformation.
AATHA also provides access to a variety of medicines and spiritual instruments in our online Hapothecary and Apothecary. We offer sananga, ambil, and several blends of hape. We also create our own essential oil blends, herbal remedies, florida water, and kuripes. Everything offered is created with prayer and blessed for the use of our church members.
As a 508(c)(1)(a) religious organization, we operate under the designation of a “free church.” This status affords us the legal protection necessary to offer individuals a spiritually rich and legally secure space for exploration and growth. Our commitment to providing a safe and supportive environment ensures that individuals can embark on their transformative journeys with peace of mind.
In summary, AATHA is a sacred haven that embraces the sacramental use of psilocybin-containing mushrooms, offering transformative healing experiences through profoundly sacred ceremonies. We provide a holistic approach to personal growth and spiritual exploration with various complementary practices such as yoga, integrations, meditation, breathwork, plant medicine sessions, and shadow work discussions. Through our nourishing organic vegetarian meals and commitment to creating a secure and nurturing environment, we strive to empower individuals on their unique path toward self-discovery, healing, and expansion of consciousness.
1 Reviews on “Ancient Awakenings Temple of the Healing Arts”
After doing due diligence regarding the benefits and safety of psilocybin mushrooms, I was invited by a friend to attend one of the Ancient Awakenings retreats. It was amazing.
The first evening I experienced the Sweat Lodge where I learned and shared in the custom of a very wise culture many centuries old. The next day involved sessions of meditation, breathing exercises, and discussions regarding our motives and the desires we wanted to achieve from the psilocybin ceremony.
Sunshine (her original first name), our Medicine Woman, who also teaches college with a PhD, took time during the discussions to determine a proper dosage and explained in detail several optional plant based medicines available to assist in grounding us in preparing for the ceremony. I had read many articles about people who had bad experiences without the right setting and preparation. In fact, the whole agenda was organized to eliminate anxiety and fear so that the various purposes that the different participants had would be more likely to be fulfilled.
Partaking for the first time Hape’, followed by a medium size dose of the mushroom sacrament, I enjoyed three relaxing hours of beautiful music and psychedelics, while being able to deeply meditate on my life and priorities for the future. I will certainly be back and want to go deeper to learn and discover whatever my subconscious may reveal and to increase my ability to mediate and to focus on more important things. Scientific evidence abounds that this often occurs.
This was followed on the third day with integration. Having become acquainted in this first short weekend with all four founders, the sincerity and dedication of each of them was clearly exhibited. They all have advanced educations and their work at AATHA is a ministry of love and is certainly not about money. They wanted very much to assist and help guide us to the positive things we were seeking.
