This week on Illuminated, we’re talking with Melissa Stangl, Founding Partner and COO of The Soltara Healing Centre in Costa Rica. Melissa works with psychedelics and plant medicines, starting her journey back in 2015 when she quit her corporate job to live and work with ayahuasca in the Amazon jungle. This week we share our own personal healing journeys with ayahuasca and how transformative this mode of therapy can be. 

 

In this episode, I share: 

Mine and Melissa own personal healing journey with ayahuasca How Melissa became involved in ayahuasca therapy  The integration of the healing effects from an ayahuasca ceremony Changing, rewriting, and passing on your DNA through plant medicines The mind-body connection and what happens when we aren’t listening to our bodies Purging negative emotions and releasing mind chatter  Preparing the body for an ayahuasca retreat and ceremony Healing dependencies through ceremony The importance of maintaining the native roots of plant medicines and platforming indiginous voices How Soltara contributes to the psychedelic movement by bridging science and tradition Accessibility of plant medicines and giving back to the Amazon Trauma, ACE scores and how they can lead to chronic illness and disease
