EthnoBotany Retreat with Vera Froes
Aug
Ethnobotany/Pachamama Retreat Teresopolis Brasil 2016
For those who are on the spiritual path of Grandmother Ayahuasca, this is a great opportunity to understand the roots of our lineage. It is our pleasure to share with you our spiritual work, where the foundation was born. Vera, Purusha, Veraluz and Aisha will be sharing from their years of experience working with plant medicine and the spiritual science behind it.
Participants will be exposed to the magic world of plants with Vera Froes, an ethnobotanist, plant astrologer and potion maker. (Read Vera’s Bio Here) They will have hands on experience with plant alchemy, making salves, developing intuition and connection with the plant world and more. They will also have opportunities to experience our grandmother medicine in many different ways. We will have a day of meditation to drink, lie on a hammock and go deep and we will also have both a Pachamama Ceremony and a day to go to a Traditional Santo Daime Church Ceremony at Baixinha’s Church Ceu da Flor da Montanha. That’s besides exploring the amazing waterfalls around the beautiful land where Vera has her home and Sitio.
