Ceremony

Details:

 

***All participants must complete a health questionnaire before attending the ceremony (email follow up after ticket purchase). Please try to get your tickets at least 24 hours before the start time.

 

Stephen has facilitated hundreds of ceremonies over 15 years and was trained by the Sacred Valley Tribe, Shipibo ayahuasca traditions, Apache Shamans, Bwiti iboga practitioners, and various entheogen retreat centers. Your safety is a priority for both Stephen and Christopher.

​

Both Hapé and Sananga are legal plant sacraments (18+), but are part of the visionary entheogenic traditions of places like the Amazon. They are commonly used to support, prepare for and enhance the psychedelic experience.

​

This group will be limited to 15 (purchase a ticket to secure your spot). It will be held in the Earth Room at Creators Space where participants will gather in circle, get to know each other, enjoy traditional icaros songs, sound healing, sage, and receive the sacraments one at a time with personal attention from Stephen throughout. Multiple administrations will be made available.

Medicine Information:

Rapé or Hapé is a sacred ancient medicine from South America, and has been used for centuries by different tribes in the amazon. It is a fine tobacco dust sometimes mixed with other plants, barks or medicinal ashes which, due to its high purifying qualities, is considered a master plant with exceptional qualities for cleaning the physical and energetic body. It is applied through the nose and works at a physical level, cleansing the paranasal sinuses, alleviating sinusitis, rhinitis and headaches, and decongesting respiratory tract, purifies and detoxifies; At a subtle level, it cleanses the energy center associated with the third eye, and helps us balance our emotions. It is a medicine of silence because it allows us to silence the flow of thoughts and make us aware of our physical body while offering us a state of consciousness centered in the here and now, helps us to enter deep meditative processes and provides clarity of thought, opens our mind and offers connection to the higher planes while keeping us in a state of self-awareness. It also help us to work out our fears and insecurities as well as to release burdens, situations, thoughts or ideas that afflict us. it is important that participants taking part of the ceremony bring a clear and personal intention.

​

Sananga is made from the roots and bark of the Tabernaemontana undulata shrub. For traditional Amazonian tribes, Sananga is a powerful eye application used to sharpen night vision, aid in overall eye health, anxiety, worry, and depression. This sacred and potent shrub is used for healing physical and spiritual ailments by clearing the mind while gaining a new way of perception and focus.

​

Applying Sananga is an easy process that entails the client lying down comfortably on their back. We apply four drops to each eye and allow the Sananga to circulate through the eye and throughout the body. There is an invigorating burning sensation in the first few minutes of application that soon settles down with a pleasant endorphin rush, leaving the individual with a sense of profound calmness.

​

In conjunction with Sananga treatments, we use bio field tuning and brief pressure point body work. The synergistic techniques enhance the experience, opening space within the body, creating better blood flow, while clearing the energy field.
