A Sacred Invitation to Return to Your Origin, Your Power, and Your Divine Guidance…

This is not work for the curious. It is an initiation for the committed. If you have walked the path of therapy, meditation, and self-inquiry but still feel a silence where there could be answers—welcome home.

THE INSIGHT

You have done the work. You understand your patterns, your traumas, and your history. Yet, understanding the wound has not healed it. You are seeking something deeper than an experience or a temporary escape. You are seeking alignment. The indigenous elders know that true healing is not about adding something new to you; it is about removing the layers that hide who you already are. It is about untangling the knots in your energy that logic cannot reach. You are here because you are ready to stop fixing yourself and start being yourself.

THE CONTAINER

There is an immense difference in the healing available to people when working with entheogens recreationally or individually compared to that in a sanctified container that is held by a skilled shaman.
The Container: A safe space held with integrity, unconditional love, compassion, empathy, reverence, and appreciation for the unfolding Divine process of healing & the reclamation of your full Being. Integral to this space is a fortified space energetically, spiritually and emotionally that is held with deep respect and gratitude for the flow of what serves the highest good of all. If you want a different experience; here is your alternative.

My path has been forged through over a decade of immersion in these traditions, deep dietas with master plants, and the direct guidance of Noya Rao (The Tree of Light). My role is to serve as a bridge. I create a space of absolute integrity so that you can commune directly with the intelligence of the Medicine.
Traditionally Trained: Studied directly with Doña Wilma Mahua and dieted with Papa Gilberto Mahua. Safety First: A rigorously held container where your physical and energetic safety is paramount. No Gurus: I am here to help you find your internal guidance, not to give you mine.

THE GUIDE: SHAUN RANKO MERAYA

In this work, safety is the foundation of surrender. You cannot fully let go if you do not fully trust the container. I am not a “trip sitter.” I have been working with plant-based entheogens for well over a decade. I began my journey seeking self-healing through every modality I came across for 8 years prior
to working with entheogens. Some of the modalities that aided me on my quest for healing were Yoga, EFT, Energy work & Clairvoyant training, traditional & non-traditional therapy, acting class & improv, NLP, Inner (child) Work, Archetype exploration, Watsu, sound/theta/alpha healing. As helpful as this foundational work was, none of it was as profoundly healing as when I sat with Ayahuasca for the first weekend. This began my deepest self-exploration and facilitated the healing of deeply rooted traumas, even uncovering a key situation I didn’t realize was part of my life that needed to be healed.
Numerous travels to the Peruvian and Brazilian Amazon jungle have taught me the ways of the indigenous tribes & traditions. Intensive dietas with Master Plant teachers have enabled me to learn from & build relationships with the

Sacred plant spirits directly, as is the indigenous custom and path to Being a shaman. I’ve primarily studied in the Shipibo tradition. On my last trip to Peru, I was given the blessing of a Shipibo name: Ranko Meraya. This name was given by Noya Rao, the Tree of Light, my most important teacher and guiding Light in this sacred work.

THE VESSEL: THE SACRED CEREMONY

We do not use the Medicine to escape; we use it to see. This is a space of work, prayer, and profound respect. We work with the synergy of these sacraments, which serve as a botanical-glandular bridge, that allows you to access the divine nature within your own biology. This experience is designed for those who are willing to face their shadow. It is for those who understand that the medicine is not a magic pill, but a teacher that requires your active participation, courage, and surrender. Our Sacred Tools include:
The Sacrament; Prepared with reverence, without additives, honoring the synergistic magic of the what these Sacred plants have to offer . Mapacho, Ambil & Rapé (ha-peh): Traditional South American tobacco medicines used to clear heavy energy, ground the spirit, and open the channels for healing.
Agua de Florida: traditional shamanic blend of powerful plant healers used to deeply cleanse, purify & extricate blockages.
Sananga: Sacred eye drops to clarify inner and outer vision, rewire the body from stored trauma and release deep-seated tension. Chilcuague: a mouth pray loaded with medicines for the entire digestive tract from entry other exit, containing an array of anti-inflammatory & anti-parasitic properties.

THE OFFER

True transformation does not happen in a single night. It happens in the preparation before and the integration after. We do not offer “one-off” ceremonies as a fix-all. We offer a comprehensive container designed to ensure you don’t just have a peak experience, but a lasting shift in your life trajectory.

PHASE 1: THE PREPARATION (THE SOIL)

We begin weeks before we meet. You will receive a protocol to prepare your physical vessel and align your intentions. This includes dietary guidance (the Dieta) to quiet the mind, calm your energy and sensitize the body to receive the subtle energies & medicine of the plants. Honoring the traditional sacred containers and maintaining reverence for the process of whatever unfolds throughout Ceremony is paramount. Everything prior to, during and after Ceremony is part of the healing process and is an opportunity for growth. The plants work in this Divine way of supporting us through our entire process with unconditional love, opportunity for growth and compassion. They also support us by orchestrating the details around our entire process to unfold with grace, even if it’s challenging to experience or acknowledge at times. There may be tests to your commitment showing up as challenges or noise. Be mindful that any tests are signs to show you that you are on the right path. I invite you to view these tests as markers for your growth and to root deeper into the process.

PHASE 2: THE INITIATION
(THE CEREMONY)

A small, intimate group setting ensures you receive individual attention and care. We gather to commune deeply with the energies of the sacraments we will be working with and to open ourselves up to experience true healing, connection & transformation. Guided by icaros (healing medicine songs) and reverential silence, you will journey into the depths of your own being to clear what is stagnant and fully reclaim your light.

PHASE 3: THE INTEGRATION (THE GROWTH)

The work truly begins when the ceremony ends. I provide structured integration support to help you weave the insights from the ceremony into your daily life, relationships, and purpose. This is how a vision becomes a virtue.

THIS IS FOR YOU IF

You are an “Explorer” or “Spiritual Seeker” ready to commit to a path of self-discovery. You will allow your vulnerabilities and challenges to come up so that they can be met with Love. You are willing to honor the Dieta (diet) and make the necessary sacrifices to receive the full benefits of the medicine. You are looking for a safe, traditional container free from distraction and “spiritual tourism.”

THIS IS NOT FOR YOU IF

You are looking for a “trippy” weekend. You are unwilling to face uncomfortable emotions or parts of yourself. You are looking for a quick fix without the willingness to integrate the changes into your life.

ARE YOU READY TO DO THE WORK?

The Medicine is calling. If you feel the resonance of this invitation in your Being, I invite you to apply. We screen every applicant to ensure medical safety and energetic alignment. This is to protect the integrity of the circle and ensure this is the right path for you at this time.
