are you ready to let go, to surrender and release, to clear blocks and align with your sense of divine purpose?
invite in the medicine of kambo.
in the space of kambo ceremony, we invite the wise medicine to meet you and your intentions.
Kambo helps clear ‘panema’ or bad luck, along with the blocks we have to healing and transformation and the behaviors that keep us in cycles of self-sabotage. It supports us holistically, cleansing us physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
Kambo ignites the fire of spirit, awakening dormant parts of ourselves, helping us transmute with the heat it builds. Worked with as a hunting medicine in many tribes, Kambo heightens our senses. It encompasses a balance of masculine, warrior energy and feminine, magnetic energy. The fire of action is balanced by the cleansing power of water. It helps us find our balance of yin yang, our wisdom of engaging the active and receptive energies.
We welcome in the spirit of Kambo, with its deep wisdom and ability to work within our systems exactly where it is needed. It boosts vitality and helps the process of healing and transformation on the deepest levels. It brings clarity and helps provide stability to all parts of your being.
After clearing, there is an opportunity for a fresh start, its easier to reroute, to shift our habits and patterns, to change addictive tendencies and be more in tune with our true essence and needs. This supports our capacity to make decisions that are for our higher good, helping maintain our sense of vitality, and helping us stay aligned with our purpose and truth.
