We'll be working with Ayahuasca and Bufo at the most sacred place I know of on this Earth: Kumankaya. Dear Apotheosis Family, I could write for hours about [what ayahuasca &]( alvarius]( given me in my life]( yet if I were to distill their essential teaching down to its essence, I’d say: These medicines have gifted me Direct Experiences of Divinity. They have taught me that God is real. God is Love. Love is the Final Medicine. Trust God. And this is truly priceless. One cannot articulate the value of such experiences. These are milestone experiences that usher one into an entirely different paradigm of faith and conviction. This deepening of faith and conviction—rooted not in blind belief but in direct experience—is a tremendous aid in all facets of life. To me there is nothing more precious in Life than to directly know and trust God. All other experiences in life are greatly influenced and colored by one’s depth of faith and conviction. These medicines catalyze not merely an ‘intellectual’ faith or conviction based on a memory of a visionary experience. They catalyze an embodied paradigm shift in which one can feel like the ‘deep code’ of one’s physical vessel has been rewritten. One can feel like years, decades, or even lifetimes of karmic debris and hang-ups have been cleansed from one’s system in a matter of hours or minutes—resulting in a newfound sense of lightness, relaxation, and cellular-level trust. Miraculous forms of psycho-emotional-physical-energetic healing can spontaneously occur in the wake of these experiences. Naturally there is no guarantee of what exactly you will experience, yet it is safe to say that it will be life-altering and unforgettable. The loving shamans of Kumankaya—our dear friends Remi and Ashley Delaune—serve these medicines in an incredibly wise and beautiful way, meeting people where they are with great skillfulness and sensitivity. If you are new to these medicines, they will start you with low doses to ensure that you respond well to these entheogenic teachers, before inviting you to increase the dose if you feel called to do so. Because of this prudent technique, Kumankaya is a wonderful place for both intermediate and advanced practitioners to sit with ayahuasca and Bufo—two of the most profound teachers mankind has ever known.

Here is what some of the participants said about their experiences at my / our retreats: "That was like 1,000 therapy sessions in one. [Released] a lot of hidden shame… Condensed super-therapy." — Brian, Retreat Participant, USA —— “I wanna weep in the face of truth… Two things: There’s nothing to be afraid of, and Love is unlimited. I wanna hug you guys.” — Sam, Retreat Participant, USA —— “Apotheosis was more transformative than I ever could have imagined. I’m a completely different person - still myself, but utterly changed. My expectations were exceeded a hundredfold. THIS is what life can be - this is the beauty, the connection, the love, the belief that is possible! Apotheosis is a beacon of hope and light for what the rest of your life can look like, if you so choose. I’m infinitely grateful. My heart is full.” — Chloe, 34, Retreat Participant, USA —— "There was just such immense love, encouragement, support and wisdom being poured into our hearts. The team was also just a beautiful mirror for us to ground into the truth. Because that's what it's all about. It is moving beyond the stories that we incessantly tell ourselves that keep us trapped in the prison of our minds. This retreat absolutely demolishes those shackles, and I'm super grateful. Thank you so much, it was beautiful. I learned so much from y'all, so much about myself. I am forever grateful. Thank you, I love you. Much love. Peace." — Brady, Retreat Participant, USA —— "I leave feeling complete. More complete than I ever have. Acknowledging all the facets of my personality and all the depth that I choose to ignore at times... I feel a sacred connection to everything after this work. I'm so, so grateful to Jordan, Tanja, and the whole team. I want to continue this work for the rest of my life and see where it goes. It's a wonderful road. Sending big love and appreciation to everyone who was involved." — Zach, Retreat Participant, USA —— "The experience has been really magical and healing. Just coming here to this amazing place and hearing all the wilderness feels so calming and relaxing. Being here with everyone in ceremony and all healing together and supporting each other really opened up my heart. My biggest highlight was the time after ceremony. Just sharing our experiences together and getting to know everyone and hearing their stories." — Kevin, Retreat Participant, USA —— "My experience was beautiful overall. It was healing and it was life affirming and it was a gift that I gave to myself that I'm truly grateful of receiving. I really enjoyed the camaraderie, the sharing with each other and the group process. The entire process was in some parts challenging and in some parts a lot of fun, but overall enriching and helpful in a lot of ways. At this point in time, I feel like I need to come back here every year of my life just to bathe and bask in the love that is here." — Austin, Retreat Participant, USA —— "My experience was really powerful. I’ve been going through a really rough time for the last four months or so and this felt like a deep reset and a remembrance of the joy and gratitude in the world and all the possibilities out there. The community, the medicine, the workshops… Everything just came together for a big reset." — Eric, Retreat Participant, USA —— "Absolutely life-changing. The most important thing I've ever done. Years of therapy and pill medication did nothing compared to the accelerated program here. Beauty. Words don't do it justice. Incredibly profound." — Jake, Retreat Participant, USA [Learn More & Apply for Apotheosis]( Learn More About the Medicines You can also learn more about ayahuasca, Bufo, and Kumankaya by exploring these guides I’ve created in the past: - [18 Days in the Jungle: An Entheogenic Healing Journey with Ayahuasca & Bufo]( — (Includes video interviews with last year’s participants) - [Ayahuasca is David Hawkins’]( Go Technique]( Fast Forward]( - [The Most Powerful Ayahuasca Experience of My Life]( - [5-MeO-DMT & Bufo Alvarius: The Most Enlightening Psychedelic]( - [My Interview With Remi Delaune—Founder & Shaman of Kumankaya]( Is it time to take a leap?
