Amazon Weekend with Naysha & Guillermo in Lillehammer, Norway

Naysha, an internationally Peruvian Curandera, has dedicated her life to healing through the use of medicinal plants, ceremonies, sacred music, and ancient traditions. Born with a unique connection to the plant kingdom, Naysha's journey with plant medicine began even before her birth. Her mother, unable to conceive, sought healing from shamans after modern medicine failed her. Through shamanic treatment, Naysha's mother was blessed with the ability to conceive Naysha, instilling in her a deep reverence for the power of plant medicine Initially trained as a lawyer working for the Peruvian government, Naysha soon realized that true societal change begins with personal transformation. Feeling called to a higher purpose, she left her career behind and embarked on a transformative journey to the Amazonian jungle. There, Naysha immersed herself in the teachings of various plant teachers, learning different healing techniques and studying with indigenous shamans. Her journey further led her to the northern part of Sweden, where she lived among the Sami people, continuing her education and deepening her understanding of plant medicine. Naysha's expertise extends to facilitating Ayahuasca, San Pedro, and Kambo ceremonies. She is also skilled in soul retrieval, exorcisms, inner child healing, ancestral healing, and other profound healing modalities. Her unique approach to healing and her ability to connect deeply with the spiritual realm stems from a powerful encounter with Archangel Raphael, who urged her to embark on a mission to share the medicine with the world. Over the years, Naysha has traveled extensively across Europe, Asia, and South America, sharing the wisdom and experiences she gained from her shamanic training through her organization, Taita Inti. Through ceremonies and workshops, Naysha has touched the lives of countless individuals, helping them reconnect with their inner selves, heal old wounds, and transform their lives. Naysha's ultimate vision is to create a global community dedicated to personal and collective transformation. By bringing together individuals from all walks of life, she envisions a world where ancient wisdom and modern society merge harmoniously, paving the way for a more conscious and connected future. Through her teachings, Naysha aims to inspire and empower others to embrace their own healing journeys and become agents of positive change in the world.

**Biography of Guillermo** Born in the city of Pucallpa, Peru, Guillermo belongs to the Shipibo-Conibo tribe, renowned for its rich traditions in healing and spirituality. He began his journey into traditional medicine at the age of 24, motivated by a deep paternal love when his son fell seriously ill. In his family, there are numerous renowned shamans, but before discovering his vocation as a healer, Guillermo sought to heal through meditation and prayer. One day, however, his spiritual guides warned him that his son's condition could worsen. It was then that he met Maestro Manuel Vásquez, after his wife initiated a conversation about Guillermo’s desire to become a healer. With determination, Guillermo approached Manuel and expressed his longing: "I want to heal the sick, just as you have healed my son; I want to learn from you." The maestro accepted Guillermo as his student but imposed a strict condition: he would have one week to demonstrate his commitment, or he would not be able to continue. The first medicine he received was Marosa; the maestro administered the ícaro using tobacco and informed him that the training diet would last three months. During this time, Guillermo faced numerous challenges set by his maestro, who sought to verify his worthiness as a healer. His first ayahuasca ceremony, held during this diet, proved enlightening: he understood that he was the first student of Manuel, a confirmation his maestro later provided. The restrictions of the rigorous diet posed a challenge, marked by the deprivation of salt and other essential foods. However, after three months of discipline and sacrifice, his maestro asked him to undertake his first healing: a two-year-old girl whose health was concerning. Despite his initial shyness, Guillermo proceeded with the diagnosis and managed to heal the girl in just one day, convincing his maestro that he was ready for more advanced training. After 16 years dedicated to traditional medicine, Guillermo continues to follow a regimen of diet and training. He has worked at Casa Shipiba and Aya Madre, where he has trained nine Peruvian students and four foreign students, all now equipped to heal and help others.
