• 0:19
  If you're thinking of trying the plant medicine Ayahuasca, then
• 0:23
  there are six things that you need to know.
• 0:26
  Otherwise your experience will be a nightmare.
• 0:30
  The first thing that you need to know if you want to try
• 0:33
  Ayahuasca is said, this is supposed to be a Simone, you'll
• 0:36
  experience. This is not like mushrooms.
• 0:39
  You can do stupid, somebody's at home or God forbid at a party.
• 0:45
  This is not a party drug. You need to do it in a safe
• 0:48
  space. Faced with a shaman or some type
• 0:51
  of facilitator who knows what they're doing and who had done
• 0:55
  this many many times preferably in Peru, if you can afford it.
• 0:59
  Since this is where the plant medicine comes from, these
• 1:02
  shamans have been learning for generations of how to use this
• 1:06
  medicine. When I did my Ayahuasca Retreat,
• 1:09
  it was in Peru, close to Iquitos which is the capital of the
• 1:15
  Peruvian Amazon. They were you should be this
• 1:18
  round. Room ceremonial room where you
• 1:21
  will have in the middle. Like the incense the space
• 1:26
  clearers, and then you have the sleeping mouths around.
• 1:29
  You have a bucket for when you purge or vomit, you'll also get
• 1:33
  a blanket and sometimes you get a guava Florida, which you
• 1:37
  spray. It's a clearer of your energy so
• 1:40
  that any negative spirits will stay away.
• 1:44
  So this will really set you up for a good state of mind, which
• 1:46
  is so important because it's so easy.
• 1:49
  We too have a bad trip on a Oscar.
• 1:51
  The second thing you should know before trying Ayahuasca is to
• 1:55
  find a legit shama, there are so many horror stories of people
• 1:59
  getting robbed when they are in that house.
• 2:01
  A genetic is that it's called state or being touched
• 2:07
  inappropriately by scammy shamans.
• 2:10
  So you really want to look for centers already before you
• 2:14
  arrived in Peru, if that's what you decide to do it.
• 2:18
  Don't just show up because if you do in Iquitos you'll find
• 2:22
  loads of comments to say, hey you want to try?
• 2:25
  It was scary. I can help but you have no idea
• 2:27
  about who they are. So I was researching for days
• 2:31
  when I was looking for my Ayahuasca Center and eventually,
• 2:34
  I found one that I had really good reviews.
• 2:37
  So really look at the testimonials before you decide,
• 2:40
  I went with dream, Glade in Peru, and that was an awesome
• 2:43
  experience. So really look at the
• 2:45
  testimonials and book online. Before you get to, wherever
• 2:51
  you're going to do it for simply qdos.
• 2:53
  The third thing, you need to be aware of before you try
• 2:57
  Ayahuasca, is that you need to do a pre Dieter Dieter they call
• 3:01
  it and this includes eating a live vegetarian diet, no
• 3:06
  alcohol, no caffeine. And you want to diet to be low
• 3:10
  in salt and sugar Allen. Shoemaker explained.
• 3:13
  This in his book, Ayahuasca medicine, the shamanic world of
• 3:17
  Amazonian. Sacred plant healing.
• 3:19
  The plant diets are designed to help a person connect to the
• 3:22
  spirits of the plants and to develop new healing capabilities
• 3:26
  vision and sites. They require much time in
• 3:29
  solitude and a strict dietary regimen.
• 3:31
  When you follow the required diet, the spirit world is more
• 3:34
  accessible. So if you love your coffee or
• 3:37
  your love, your mate, you might be Julia.
• 3:39
  Why do I have to do this? What will happen if I just stick
• 3:42
  to my normal diet? Well, Ayahuasca is a really
• 3:45
  cleanse on a physical mental, spiritual level.
• 3:48
  So, if you have lots of gangs and toxics in your body, then
• 3:52
  it's going to be a lot of vomiting.
• 3:56
  During the ceremony, you are expected to vomit, which is will
• 4:00
  come to later, but it will just be not a nice experience.
• 4:03
  You will not feel good at all. So, I was mostly eating salads.
• 4:07
  The days leading up to their our Scout.
• 4:09
  It wasn't very fun to have salads without any salt, but it
• 4:14
  was worth it. The cleaner.
• 4:15
  Your body is before you start the better, do you also want to
• 4:19
  continue with this diet three days after your summary or
• 4:23
  Retreat as well? The fourth thing that you need
• 4:25
  to be aware of if you want to try Ayahuasca, is that it tastes
• 4:30
  disgusting? This is not like these cacao
• 4:34
  ceremonies with this warm little Coco.
• 4:38
  That's delicious. You know, this is the most
• 4:41
  bitter thing you will ever taste and its really thick liquid as
• 4:46
  well. The fifth thing that you should
• 4:48
  be We're off is that you are expected to vomits.
• 4:52
  Like I said I was Scott is a cleanse physically, mentally
• 4:55
  spiritually. So vomiting or purging like the
• 4:58
  collet is really important in just taking up all those toxins,
• 5:03
  both energetically and physical toxins.
• 5:06
  So when you are at the retreat you will have the facilitators
• 5:10
  asking you every half an hour or so.
• 5:12
  Like have you been purging? And if you haven't been purging
• 5:16
  they might give you some more or They might do some shots things
• 5:20
  to really help things move up, so really don't hold it in and
• 5:25
  don't be scared to purge because that's just going to be bad for
• 5:30
  you. And yeah, if you are scared of
• 5:33
  only thing, if you don't like vomiting, for example, my
• 5:35
  partner, he passes out every time he vomits.
• 5:38
  So clearly I was guy is not a good idea for him.
• 5:41
  So think about am I willing to hurt to vomit the sixth thing
• 5:45
  you need to know is the timing of thing.
• 5:48
  So first of all, it takes around 30 minutes for the effects, the
• 5:54
  hallucinogenic effect to appear. So if in 20 minutes, you see or
• 5:59
  feel nothing. Don't worry, definitely.
• 6:01
  Don't take more iOS, get that point and just wait for it.
• 6:05
  The second thing you need to know about the timing is that it
• 6:08
  will take around four hours the effect.
• 6:11
  It can last that long and even longer.
• 6:14
  It depends on things like your health your way.
• 6:18
  It's your health status. For many people, it's over six
• 6:22
  hours from me. I think, after six hours, I
• 6:26
  thought it was done, but then it just before drifting off to
• 6:28
  sleep. I saw Spirits or ghosts so I was
• 6:33
  freaking out. So just know that that is
• 6:35
  completely normal and give yourself enough space to ride it
• 6:39
  out. Now that you know, these things
• 6:41
  definitely check out my other video on this topic called why
• 6:44
  you should not try Ayahuasca my ayahuasca.
• 6:48
  Is there, I will tell you about the negative aspects of
• 6:51
  Ayahuasca that people don't talk about much.
• 6:54
  And, yeah, there are many things with Ayahuasca that can be
• 6:58
  negative experiences, but if you feel called to this plant
• 7:02
  medicine, then I really think you should follow that.
• 7:05
  I felt this calling for two years, leading up to me trying
• 7:09
  it and I just, I just couldn't get rid of this idea of going to
• 7:12
  Peru and try an Ayahuasca. So if you're meant to do it the
• 7:16
  universe will keep Keep keep planting this idea in your head
• 7:20
  that you have to do it. Let's continue the discussion in
