Ep. 18 - Safa Roberts - Yoga, Pranic Healing, and Plant Medicine

YouTube version:

 

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 18 of the show is out. In this show, I spoke with my friend Safa. Safa is a yoga instructor, pranic healing and plant medicine practitioner who I met at the Amazon healing center The Temple of the Way of Light, where she led worked as a teacher and facilitator of ceremonies. She spent a long time living in India studying deeply yoga and pranic healing and eventually came to the Amazon to learn in-depth the traditional Shipibo lineage of working with plants. She works in the Sacred Valley of Peru with her partner Felix, who I interviewed in episode 14. Safa has a lot to share and I think you all will very much enjoy this conversation. And check out Patreon for the full interview. Best!

“Safa (Soi Kete in Shipibo) brings a wide variety of skills to the team and has been dedicated to the medicine for over twelve years. Residing in India for several years, she trained in yoga, specializing in breathwork and study of the subtle or energy body. She ran her own yoga school and lead yoga trainings worldwide from 2011-2015. Through this work she gained extensive experience facilitating groups through deeply personal and transformational experiences. 

Safa has been deeply involved in the study and practice of energetic healing for over fifteen years. Originally certified in Pranic Healing, she has since studied with many teachers of various modalities to broaden her repertoire of skills. She has been working with the Shipibo to learn energetic healing directly from the plants and brings this highly specialized work into the ceremony space.

Facilitating for various medicine centers in Peru, she has acquired a strong repertoire of emotional/mental processing tools that help to bridge western pathology and understanding with the Shipibo paradigm of healing. Honoring the Shipibo lineage, she continues to study and diet with her maestro Soi in his community of Nueva Betania.”

Ep. 14 - Felix Durden- Plant Medicine Guide, Shipibo tradition, and the Journey of Apprenticeship

YouTube version:

 

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 14 of the show is out. In this show, I spoke with my friend Felix Durden.  Felix and I met working together at the Amazonian plant medicine center The Temple of the Way of Light. Felix came to plant medicine in search of meaning and healing. And he has gone deep into the process of learning how to do this work, particularly in the Shipibo tradition. There aren’t many people from outside the Shipibo tradition that have gone this deeply into it. So he really has a deep knowledge of plants, of tradition, and the journey it takes to become a practitioner of this work. I always enjoy talking to Felix and I think you all will gain a lot of information and wisdom in this episode. And check out Patreon (see below) for access to the full episode. I hope you enjoy it!

“Felix (Soi Pino in Shipibo) first began his medicine journey attempting to heal from Lyme disease contracted in 2008.  At its worst, he experienced a wide array of symptoms: anxiety attacks, memory loss, brain fog, and organ failure. After little success with conventional treatment, his research led him to consider exploring ayahuasca as an alternative.  In 2013 Felix traveled to Peru to receive the medicine, and after experiencing relief from his symptoms, decided to stay on long term to learn more about traditional healing modalities.  Felix has spent the last five years working closely with the medicine and the Shipibo people. For the first two years of his apprenticeship Felix worked at well-established amazonian center assisting over 1000 people in ceremonies. Felix later left to go to Pucallpa receive more in depth healing and instruction with his maestro. Through the medicine he was able to find incredible healing and relief from the pains of Lyme. Through his maestro’s lineage, he has been given full permission from his teacher to serve medicine and to provide healing diets. With the blessing of his teacher Felix holds this medicine with great love and respect, and has a deep passion for service.” To learn more about the work Felix does, visit: https://bodyofprana.com/
