        About this program

        Fairlight

        Cohorts of us have heard the call to serve sacred Ancestral Medicines. They recruit us to support changes in consciousness and much-needed healing. Yet, working with sacred ancestral medicines can present a range of challenges, from unspeakably ecstatic experiences to difficult or profound psycho-spiritual confrontations.
        In the West, rare are the facilitators or integration specialists confident to help others simultaneously navigate through the challenges of a deep Ancestral Medicine experience, process profound realisations, resolve activated traumas and integrate visionary and mystical experiences into their day-to-day life.
        This 15-day, hands-on training offers foundational and practical skills to help you share ancestral medicines in ceremonial settings, with confidence, safety, and care. It combines shamanic & spiritual approaches, modern trauma & harm reduction solutions with effective business and ethics best practices.
        Additionally, upon completion of the 15-day curriculum, students will have an opportunity to undertake optional practicums, to further and hone the skills gained in the training, in the modality of their choice, with real-life participants and fully supervised by faculty.
        The 15-Day training & optional practicums are composed of individual & group processes, lectures, debates, Q&As, study groups and of hands-on practical & experiential ceremonial work, where you will be assisting real-life ceremonies with San Pedro, Ayahuasca, Bufo and Kambo.

        The skills acquired and refined in this training cover four main areas:

        The healing Process

        Medicine

        • What is Ancestral Medicine
        • Shamanic perception
        • Navigation skills

        • Indigenous versus western
        • Participating versus serving
        1.
        For some of you, the above may already feel familiar and comfortable. For others, you may only discover the depths and the myriad aspects of what it takes to serve Ancestral Medicines in a modern context. Don’t be discouraged, this training is here to provide a solid exploratory platform of the many aspects of this new path.

        Note: This training starts on a NEW MOON, perfect timing to initiate new beginnings, and will end on the day of the SPRING EQUINOX, a pivotal turning point in the year to help you lead and manifest your wildest dreams.

        Why Working with us

        Our tribe is made up of passionate and experienced practitioners who specialize in Ancestral Medicines. We offer healing retreats and training programs for individuals who aspire to become facilitators in this field. Our retreats are thoughtfully designed for those who seek to experience profound healing and discover the deeper aspects of their true selves. Our mission is to share, preserve, and disseminate the collective wisdom of traditional healers from Central and South America. We dedicate our spiritual and human resources to supporting healing and promoting the evolution of consciousness.

        Healing & empowerment

        Our primary goal is to empower individuals through the use of ancestral medicines, which have unparalleled abilities to help us heal and reconnect. We are committed to honoring the traditions of the elders by sharing these medicines in their way. We recognize the wisdom and knowledge of curanderos, vegetalistos, and shamans from diverse traditions, and we owe everything to them. Their ways of reciprocity with nature inspire and motivate us in our work.

        We are here to bridge worlds

        We offer a distinct opportunity for meaningful work with master plant medicine, as fellow Westerners who share your culture, language, and mindset. Our decades of personal experience with shamanism, plant medicine, and earth medicine have led us to become initiates in our own right, as shamanic practitioners, facilitators, and intuitives. This has enabled us to create a path for the Western mind to engage with and explore the transformative and healing energies of Ancestral Medicine.
