• We are honored to invite our dear sisters and mentors Letizia Xiuh and Shahaf Shvarzman to lead Ayahuasca ceremonies the evenings of April 4 & 5, 2023. This is a unique opportunity to sit with master musicians, and be held deeply in the sacred feminine.
• Letizia has been living and sharing her medicine magic in the Sacred Valley of Peru for almost a decade. A Medicine Woman by blood, she holds 5th generation native medicine lineage from the North of Peru and has sat in and held over a thousand ceremonies.
• The first three years of her path with medicine were alongside the Colombian traditions, with tribes from the Putumayo such as Kamentza, Yanacuna, and Cofan. Parallel to her studies with these tribes she went through initiations with Venezuelan tribes that work with master plants such as Yopo.
• Grandfather Bolivar, leader of the Piaroa tribes from Amazonas, guided her as she lived with them for two months on their land, working, studying, and receiving their knowledge. Her first plant dieta with these tribes was Dada. This dieta is considered the initiation for those that are setting their path towards servants of the medicine and space holding. After 4 years of intense and disciplined work Letizia moved to Peru. Her previous work and connection with the plants and medicine space allowed her to connect and immediately start to work under the wing of Diego Palma, creator of Sacred Valley Tribe, a center with more than 20 years serving and holding space for the work with master plants. She devoted her path to this work along with the continuation of her studies through several dietas.
• She went through initiations and self-healing with plants as Chuchuhuasi, Uña de Gato, Chiric Sanango, Ajo Sacha y Renaquilla. In addition, Letizia made a commitment to the work of Mexican tribes such as Huicholes, taking the responsibility to work with grandfather Peyote as a way to keep studying and receiving guidance through her medicine path.
