I have chosen to remain anonymous for personal reasons and for protections against retaliations. Ayahuasca has the ability to open our eyes to a great many things, especially ayahuasca which carries a very high frequency that has been prepared by a master of their craft. Not all ayahuasca is the same.
Sitting with this group personally gave me bad vibes, which I ignored and continued to go back. I take full responsibility for not listening to my intuition. I won’t pass judgements or target anyone specifically, because some of the facilitators here are good people with kindness in their hearts who I loved meeting. Some on the other hand are hiding things and may still be in denial with that. There is a lack of transparency here. I saw many facilitators get taken advantage of and treated very poorly. There is absolutely no excuse for that sort of behavior. This is a direct reflection of who you are if you treat people poorly and use them or take advantage of them.

While I had decent experiences connecting with Ayahuasca and other plant medicines at the retreats I attended, there was a lack of genuine humility, and kindness with this group. Alot of ego, sitting on a pedestal, hidden agendas, and inner circle type of behaviors. When wounded or unhealed people serve medicines they pass that grief or whatever they are holding through themselves into the medicine, most often unknowingly. There is a lack of knowledge and awareness around this in the USA with these medicine groups that pop up trying to heal everyone.

If you simply want a one time “trip” or experience to try ayahuasca then this group is probably ok and safe for you as long as you do not challenge the group narrarive and go along with everything they tell you (culty). However, if you are looking for a genuine connection with a higher frequency, knowledge of yourself, and deep healing, I would advise to avoid them and look for a more genuine group which works with the higher frequencies. Save your money and go to Mexico or South America to sit with a master or group of masters instead. Choose your group wisely and avoid what I and many of others did. Not everyone working with ayahuasca has YOUR best interest in mind. Most of them are in it for the $$$ unfortunately.
If you sit with a group that carries a higher frequency, you will understand what I mean. The ceremony is day and night different. The character is day and night different. The way they help uplift you and welcome you into the higher frequencies is much different. This is not something that can be taught, it must be felt through inner work. Not everyone works for or with the highest light. The light chooses you based on your level of humility and vibration… This gets passed through the medicine being served with the intentions. One can have the best of intentions but if the high frequencies are not being held in the group, they won’t be brought into the medicine or the ceremony.

I am not saying that it is not possible for this group to one day carry that into their ceremonies… I genuinely hope that happens and that they begin to work with the righteousness and humility of the highest light.
