Some guidance into the process of integration based on the observation of many people who have moved through the medicine. What works best and some of the common mistakes.
It’s very tricky to navigate the material world after having visited the spirit realm and allowing it enter your mind and body. Community, unity, love, forgiveness, gratitude, grace, peace and self control is a dance after sitting with Mother Aya. It’s a work of art as you continue your human suit journey.
This has been my go to channel on RU-vid for all things Ayahuasca related and more. In my opinion it's the most true and authentic advice/wisdom available on these topics on YT. Thank you so much, love from India ❤
I am in my 60th year of life - 2 ceremonies last month have truly been life changing. I feel the integration has been a natural process. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the process of openings and blessings Aya can bring into one’s life 🙏💜🦋
Thank you! I watched this before and after my 3 ceremonies and it makes perfect sense now. In my third ceremony I got "the answers". When talking to my heart I asked how to keep the connection alive and it said to just quiet down by yourself once in a while.
Rick, thank you so much for explaining the process of integration. I just finished my first Aya retreat and I'm still trying to make sense of everything. Your explanation has been very insightful and has put me at ease. Thank you.
I just got back from my first Aya retreat 3 weeks ago I felt so much love and was the most happy I have been in a very long time. I was so inspired to do so many things and really looking forward to integrating my messages into my „real life“ but I have been severely humbled and find it incredibly hard to start doing anything at the moment! I really resonate with alot of what you said. I have been putting so much pressure on myself to get these things done and you’re video really helped put me at ease and slow my mind down so thank you so much!
🙏 You are amazing Rick. I have watched all your videos today. Tomorrow I will meet with Mother for the 4th time and you prepared me. All that you are saying makes so much sense, it's like the medicine speaks through you. I love you brother. I am so blessed that I came across you. Sending you love and light.
Absolutely: The TRUTH is not something that you learn, it is something that you remember but have forgotten. So adequately said... It is in this moment that the "old" pathways are shut down and the foundational ones ( before the pruning) are lightened on. That is why usually people need more than one ceremony. You need to reestablish that "new" way of thinking. Very clever are the indigenous people of the amazon very experienced indeed.
Hi Rick, I just returned from my first travel with Ayahuasca a few days ago and I am so grateful that I have stumbled upon your videos (though I don't have faith in coincidence the same way I did last week). Your perspective and truth have greatly helped me over the last few days to begin to take all the beauty and lessons that have been shown to me. Your kindness and love beams out from your videos and i know they are going to be very important to me over the coming times. So please brother know how important this work is and how grateful I am you are able to share your soul. You are an inspiration. Peace always.
This was very helpful, thank you! I just did my first three ceremonies a couple weeks ago and now I feel like I live on another planet(!) Your insights help me feel like I'm not crazy, its just a process...
Thank you for this wonderful video and for all your others. This was so helpful atrer a very powerful and magical ceremony yet was struggling to know what to do with it or how to navigate normal life in the days after 2 weeks after that ceremony I've just watched it again- and it makes even more sense. I'm so grateful to you. Thankyou! Your channel is so helpful. Please keep going!!
I really like your take on this. My intuition is telling me the answers aren't going to be found somewhere outside myself. Intergration is not a concentrative (yang) effort, it's a receptive (yin) effort.
Thank you for sharing... this video is helpful for any kind of earth medicine integration. I didn’t realize I was so rigid with myself after my ceremonies (5meo-dmt) and expecting life to be magical after. It feels hard.
Oh wow, what a joy it was to hear these things. I've not yet had the opportunity for an aya retreat - would very much love to go - but hearing all of the deeper, more "real" facets of the lessons learned, it inspires me to want to try and quiet my voice down even more, to listen more intently. Thank you for these reflections!
Had 3 ceremonies and now i want more because i have a lot to heal. But strangely it’s not happening. No matter how much i tried. So i’m going over integration process even though it has been a year since the last ceremony. It felt like a couple of months. Keep healing and keep building. 🙏🏻
Integration for me is the conversation with others or the self in case of reassembling the mosaic of the message you received. For some the powder in their bowl is completely submerged in water and they need more than one message in order to dry it up. For others, their powder is completely dry and they only needed the spark to bring the light and the light as we all know : is knowledge.
Beautiful to hear your words about preparation and integration. I feel aya is calling me and the time is right for it ! I believe the preparation and right surrendering attitude means a lot. And ayahuasca ist the "Shaman" itself. It tells you what you need to know if you are open. But can you tell sth about how important it is to have a experienced "shaman" or guide to accompany you in your process. If you ve the right attitude I bellieve aya will be working with you. Or is it also abolutly dependend on the experience of the one that is guiding the retreat ?
The person you sit with is very important. There is so much that goes into creating a safe and well protected safe. Aya is not a drug it is a gateway. Having a strong curandero can ensure that the gateway is clear and secure. They clean energy and know how to work with the medicine to change its effects. I would really suggest making sure you drink with someone with experience and good intentions
Thank you very much for this video. It is really helpful. It helped me to realize that I did not get crazy after Ayahuasca ceremony. I love your voice and your wisdom and empathy. I am really grateful🙏🏻❤️
Depends where you want to go. Obviously I would recommend coming to me. Not because I think I’m the best but simply because it’s the only place I can know for sure how you would be held. Anecdotally I can recommend Akasha, temple of the way of light, nimea kaya. Or la wayra in Columbia. I know the owner of la wayra so I can recommend that personally
hiii thank for this! very profound and grounded as nature herself 🤍😂 I've been in rush to "hold" the feelings and atitudes and fighting the resistence force like it's an enemy... You just said it all, I'm going to quiet down here haha thank u!
