Perception of Ayahuasca ceremony:

Ayahuasca, a traditional plant medicine from the Amazon, has gained immense popularity in recent years. With the release of the documentary "Reconnect" by Brian Rose of London Real, interest in this medicine has skyrocketed. Despite its growing popularity, there is still a lot of confusion surrounding the healing potential of Ayahuasca. The perception of Ayahuasca as a "magic bullet" or "cure-all" medicine can limit its true healing capabilities and contribute to irresponsible preparation processes, neglect of the integration process, and potentially unsafe conditions in ceremonies that are now common for Ayahuasca in Europe and USA.

APL takes the tradition of Ayahuasca very seriously and strives to provide a safe and responsible environment for participants to experience its benefits. To ensure the best possible experience, APL works closely with professional therapists to offer pre and post-therapeutic interventions. For those who may be nervous about their first experience with Ayahuasca, or for those who may be struggling with PTSD, depression, eating disorders, or addiction, APL provides information, education, and support to help guide individuals through their journey with this traditional plant medicine. With a commitment to promoting clarity and understanding, APL aims to play a major role in the global healing movement

How Ayahuasca assisted therapy helps?

he Integration of Ayahuasca Experience: A Vital Part of the Journey
The integration of the ayahuasca experience is a crucial aspect of the journey that should not be overlooked. The way one approaches the experience is also fundamental to the outcome. The dieta, for example, is not just a restrictive diet, but a time for contemplation and introspection, breaking the connection to external stimuli and allowing for a deeper connection to the self.

This contemplative process leads to behavioral changes and a new perspective, which can result in true transformation and healing. Ayahuasca can connect an individual to a greater intelligence and provide profound insights, but it is up to the individual to make the necessary changes in their life to address their challenges.

While many people have life-changing experiences during the ceremony, it can be a challenge for them to maintain these changes in the long-term. This is where the post-ceremony integration makes a significant difference. Without the proper support and guidance, the benefits of the experience can fade over time.

At APL, we take the ayahuasca experience seriously and are committed to providing our participants with the support they need to fully realize the healing benefits of the medicine. Whether it is through pre-ceremony preparation, during the retreat, or post-ceremony integration, we strive to provide the necessary tools for individuals to make the most of their ayahuasca journey.

What steps should we take
to help you boost your experience?

At APL Shamanic Journeys, we offer a holistic approach to ayahuasca-assisted therapy, and our team of experts can work with you to develop a personalized program tailored to your needs and goals. Whether you are seeking a single session to discuss your intentions, or multiple sessions to explore the insights and shadows that ayahuasca may bring to the surface, we are here to support you.

Before the ceremony, we suggest working with one or two pre-retreat sessions to explore your motivations and set a clear intention for your journey. During the post-ceremony period, we offer reintegration coaching to help you make the most of the insights you have gained and work on integrating them into your life. This may include creating an action plan to address any challenges you have faced and aligning your goals with your new perspective.

Our sessions are conducted via digital platforms such as Skype, Zoom, or FaceTime, and last approximately 90 minutes. During these sessions, we take the time to discuss your individual needs and tailor our approach to best support you.
