Program description

This Healing Intensive will be centered in the Wixárika shamanic tradition of the Sierra Madres of Northwestern Mexico.  This time is a powerful antidote to the difficulties you have accumulated during your life.

• You might be feeling disconnected from the world, as though it holds no strong meaning or purpose.

• You might be feeling something has been persistently blocking you in making progress in life and relationships

• Maybe you have a longing to deepen your spiritual awareness and connection?

• Maybe some of this shows up as physical symptoms in your body.

A great deal is possible through the profound wisdom of the Wixárika tradition, where you are brought into a living connection with nature ~ life as nature, nature as healing, nature as restoring, nature as reorienting, nature as guiding.

Through years of apprenticing, initiation and practice in this work David Wiley (Tsaurirrikame) and a team of Mara’akate initiated in the Wixárika Tradition can help bring you into a new relationship with your life that can offer this movement, spiritual healing and restoration.

What is Traditional Wixárika (Huichol) Healing?

The Wixárika are a group of indigenous people who have lived in the remote canyonlands of the Sierra Madre Occidental of northwestern Mexico for thousands of years. Although there have been attempts to conquer them their traditions have remained intact conserving a remarkable view and potent healing tools from a deep relationship to the gods and the spirits of nature. Don David and his team are rare Westerners that have been accepted and apprenticed from this unique calling to make this work accessible to others.

Your healing sessions will take place around a special sacred fire. Depending upon your needs, prayers and intention, your health, relationships, and life’s conditions will be explored to help facilitate changes you are seeking.
