MY STORY….

From 1998-2012, I apprenticed with Don Juanito, a traditional Plant Medicine Shaman in the Peruvian Amazon. This put me on the Plant Medicine Path and I have studied and worked extensively with three ‘feminine’ Master Plant medicines for over 25 years; Ayahuasca (the Grandmother), Cannabis (the Mother), and Cacao (the Maiden). From 2015-2018 I was in a Chiric Sanango dieta, a very powerful plant medicine that really helped deepen my Ayahuasca process.

Ayahuasca

I offer 12 day retreats in the Peruvian Amazon to dive deep with the Grandmother, in the bossom of the Mother Earth to experience this life changing Plant Medicine. I grow my own medicine that we cook together and work with a female Shipibo Shaman, so the energy is very loving, healing and feminine.

Cacao

In 2013, after completing my Plant Medicine Apprenticeship in the Peruvian Amazon, I returned to the UK with 21 pounds of Cacao in my rucksack to offer traditional Plant Medicine ceremonies in the West, using Cacao.  I facilitate sacred traditional Cacao Ceremonies around the world and train others to work with Cacao through a fully immersive Cacaoista Apprenticeship.

Cannabis

Since 2015, I have been deeply involved in promoting and reinvigorating the Hemp industry in the UK. I am Managing Director of the British Hemp Alliance that is educating and lobbying to get hemp recognised as an agricultural crop to help the UK government reach it’s Net Zero Commitments.

In Tune with Nature

I educate on the importance of 'Plant Consciousness' for our future survival, and teache others the importance of ‘living in tune with nature’ in the urban jungle by reconnecting them back to Nature, and the natural cycles and rhythms of life through my In Tune With Nature Membership.

I have a BA (Hons) in Study of Religions, MSc in Development Studies, both from SOAS University, and a Post-graduate Psychology Diploma in the Human Givens Approach.

I am also the author of ‘The Shaman’s Last Apprentice,’ and ‘Beyond Illusion’ the true stories of my Apprenticeship with Don Juanito, a plant medicine shaman from the Peruvian Amazon, and what happened when I arrived back in UK.

WHAT I OFFER

I teach each modern shamanic wisdom, and offer practical tools to help people living in the urban jungle to see the synchronicity and magic in the ordinariness, and reconnect them back to nature, and the natural cycles and rhythms of life.

I facilitate online and in person shamanic ceremonies, shamanic journeys, retreats and workshops.

I also have a thriving ceremonial-grade Cacao business that works directly with communities from the Peruvian and Ecuadorian Amazon, to protect their livelihoods and ancient farming practices, and ensure they receive a fair price for their cacao.

I take people to the Ecuadorian Amazon to experience the cacao harvest, learn about the indigenous Kichwa culture, explore Ecuador, and immerse yourself in the world of cacao and chocolate.

For the last twelve years I have been taking groups to experience Ayahuasca in her homeland, the Peruvian Amazon.
