About this Retreat
As the direct descendant of Mexican Revolutionary hero, General Francisco (Pancho) Villa, Yael carries the consciousness of freedom and Soverign-Being. In the Shamanic path, this has meant understanding all models for spirituality as different Anyas (truths) that complement each other through their contrast, but most importantly that they are not meant to be submitted to.
Yael has been working with Buddhist and Hindu Spirituality since 2013, Becoming a Zen Doshi and a Kriya Yoga Teacher. However, his Mexican roots exposed him to Sacred Ancestral wisdom from his early childhood. Exposing him different cultures like the Tarahumaras, Raramuris and Guarijó from the north of Mexico understanding the natural ways of communities that live in harmony with Pachamama. Later he Studied under a female Hopi Native American Priestess, and learned from Lakota teachers in California
A father of 2. At 29, his firstborn Andres Gabriel was born in 2013, Yael received a calling from spirit that led to an very intense experience of awakening. He then began working with Sacred Medicines, Learning with Shipibo Maestros and with Colombian Medicine Teachers in California.
Later in 2016 he became interested in hypnosis and became a Board Certified Clinical Hypnosis Therapist. He holds many other healing modalities like White time healing (levels 1, 2 and 3) as well as various modalities of sound healing with Quantum Sound Therapy and The Portacle
Another paramount event in his life on 2016 was the birth of his Daughter Sarah Sophia and another prayer was answered. The Q'ero path of the Andes gave Andres a deep remembrance calling, and he has been initiating into deeper degrees of consciousness within different lineages of the Q'ero and Wasqar, Andean traditions. He became a Missayoq 2018 and he was initiated into Pampamissayoq in 2019. Last, he initiated into Altomissayoq in Cuzco in 2022.
Offering an experience of tangible spirituality, which flows as embodiment of consciousness, Yael provides a Rich space for Inner growth, filled with transmutation, real healing and Joy for living. All in connection to the Apus, the 4 directions, the 4 elements and our Sacred Pachamama.

Why is this happening at Mount Shasta?
Below is the meaning of the Apus (Mountain Consciousness) and their role in your initiation.
Mount Shasta and the Awakening of the Throat Chakra
In the shamanic traditions of the Andes, the Apus are sacred mountain beings who serve as guides for humanity, transmitting messages through time and space to those ready to listen. They are living expressions of Pachamama’s wisdom, helping us remember how to live in Ayni, sacred reciprocity, harmony, and balance.
Each Apu carries a unique spirit, frequency, and teaching. Some mountains guide the heart, others awaken vision, grounding, or spiritual power. Mount Shasta is recognized by many traditions as a mountain of purification, truth, and spiritual communication.
Within the wisdom of our Q’ero lineage, there is understanding of the Great Cosmic Serpent, a current of consciousness connected to Earth’s energetic evolution. This living force moves through the sacred mountains of the Americas, activating humanity’s remembrance and awakening higher centers of consciousness.
As this current rises through the spine of the Americas, it nourishes different energy centers of the planet. Mount Shasta is associated with the Throat Chakra, the center of truth, expression, resonance, and divine communication.
This is why many seekers feel called to Shasta during times of transition. It is a place where blocked expression can be cleared, inner truth can emerge, and one’s voice can align with purpose. Here, we learn to speak from the heart, listen to spirit, and embody integrity in word and action.
The awakening of the Throat Chakra is not only personal, it is collective. Humanity is being invited to move beyond fear, silence, and distortion, into a new era of authentic communication and conscious creation.
To receive initiation in the presence of Mount Shasta is to open the channel between soul and voice, heaven and earth, prayer and manifestation. It is an invitation to become a clear vessel for truth, healing, and service.
The Chakras now are:
Root: Aconcagua - Argentina
Sacral: Illimani - Bolivia
Solar Plexus: Ausangate - Perú
Heart Chakra: Popocatépetl - México
Throat Chakra: Mount Shasta, USA
Third Eye Chakra: Mount Logan, Canadá
Crown Chakra: Denali, Alaska
The energy of Mount Shasta is here to awaken Pachamama’s Throat Chakra, and with it, the voice of all beings connected to her.
The presence and magnetic force of Mount Shasta is an invitation to clear fear, silence, and distortion from our expression, so truth may rise through us with clarity and grace. It calls us to purify the channel between heart and voice, restoring authenticity and inner alignment.
This is an invitation for you to stand rooted in your truth. Open your voice, awaken the consciousness of your throat center, and become the clear vessel you were always meant to be.
