AnarchAWAKENING Your AscenDANCE AYA, HONGOS, BUFO (my personal BEST for last) at Bambuddha!

¡Buenos días, tardes y noches voluntaristas! / Good Morning, Afternoon and Evening Voluntarists!

Whatever time of day it may be wherever you are in the world, it is time for your AWAKENING. It is “YOUR” time to start becoming the “true” and “best” version of yourself. 

Have you heard about the AnarchAWAKENING retreats before? Have you done any “self-work” and/or experimented in spiritual healing and release before?

Let me tell you personally that it is worth every life-changing second of it!

AnarchAWAKENING retreats are held at a beautiful and majestic sanctuary/venue called the Bambuddha Centro Holístico / Bambuddha Holistic Center.  Designed and built by Christian & Christina, AKA Vistara decades ago, they’ve created and held this special sacred space to help heal individuals who have come by the thousands over the years!

There are many different healing methods that will be at your leisure to experiment with and experience. You’ll be guided gently into your inner world by Bearheart & Vistara.

Mother Nature works in many mysterious and loving ways, both inside and out. Allow me to shed some light on some of the healing methods I‘ve personally experimented with and the incredible results I experienced and still experience to this day from those healing moments:

• Temazcal Sessions - similar to relaxing in a sauna, though a little more adventurous and sometimes a little more intense. Temazcal sessions are a healing method solely using heat and they can vary depending on how deep the shaman and individual wants to go. How many “doors” do you need or want to venture through? You learn to let go of whatever past traumas, negative influences and energies that may be weighing you down spiritually so you can make  room to welcome and embrace the positive and nurturing influences and energies. Some like it HOT and if you do as well, then this healing practice is an absolute must! Would you like to bear the discipline of a WARRIOR? Then proceed back into Mother Earth’s “womb” and let her HOT embrace heat you to the core!

• Mushroom Ceremonies - It was my second experience with psychedelic medicines. My first experience was with Bufo if you can believe it, but we’ll get to that later. Mushroom ceremonies are quite a magical and collective experience. Most are done with a fair-sized group and it’s a gradual and calming ease into experiencing the world through enhancing your senses. Once your body recognizes and accepts the mushroom medicine it’s like Mother Nature showing her “true colors” and “beauty.” It feels like the restrictive shackles over our mind and senses are unlocked and the mushroom medicine is the “key” to unlocking those shackles. I highly recommend this ceremony for newcomers who are just being introduced to psychedelic medicines. A longer experience than Bufo, though much less intense.

• Ayahuasca - One thing I haven’t participated in yet, is the Ayahuasca ceremonies. I’ve heard that it is a medicine that is a little more intense than Mushrooms, though not as overly intense as Bufo. It is a combination of different healing plants and leaves that are prepared by breaking them down to a fibrous state and cooking them for a long period of time. It is cooked into a brew that you ingest via drinking it from a cup or mug.

• Bufo Sessions - This was my very first psychedelic medicine experience! Why the use of exclamation? Well, because Bufo is considered the most intense psychedelic spiritual rollercoaster you can experience. What is Bufo you ask? Well, Bufo aka Bufotenin and 5-MeO-DMT is the secretions from the Colorado River toad aka Sonoran Desert toad, which is a local toad in the Sonora, Chihuahua, and Baja California regions in Mexico. The secretions of the toad are extracted and broken down into a form that is then taken via inhalation. You don’t need much of it for it to do what it needs to do. For the best results, first set the intentions of what you want the medicine to focus on and then above all else “Let the Medicine Do What It Needs to Do.” You need to do your best not to try and control it. RELAX and FOCUS on your BREATHING and let the psychoactive psychedelic rollercoaster take its course. Everyone’s individual experience varies, it can be a very emotional experience, an out-of-body experience, and even an experience where everything starts to make more sense. If you were looking at the world with a blurry perspective, this medicine helps to bring things into “focus” and enhance your senses unlike anything you’ve ever experienced before. It is quite an enlightening, intense experience, though shorter than the mushroom ceremonies depending on the dosage and how deep you want to go with the medicine.

I could go on and on about the beautiful memories and experiences I’ve encountered during my stays over the years attending AnarchAwakenings at Bambuddha.

The early morning group Kayaking trips to the lagoon, the incredible and delicious meals cooked by the talented staff at breakfast, lunch and dinner times and just the unforgettable ambience of Bambuddha with the waves crashing on the shores of the beach and the ocean breeze caressing your skin like the texture of silk.

If you haven’t experienced an AnarchAWAKENING retreat at the Bambuddha Holistic Center then you are seriously missing out! It’s like paying a visit to heaven on Earth. Do not be afraid to discover the unknown. It is YOUR time to embrace the unknown and it is time to begin your AscenDANCE into becoming the “true” and “brave” version of YOURSELF

Until we meet again, reader! Exercise Peace, Love, and Anarchy!
