Ep. 101 - Sacred Tobacco & Tree Dietas - Interview with Merav Artzi & Jason Grechanik by Angell Deer

YouTube version:

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 101 of the show is out. This was an interview that my friend Angell Deer did for his podcast, The Sanctuary, also the name of his shamanic healing center in upstate New York where my colleague Merav Artzi and myself have been running retreats the last two years. In this interview, Angell interviews Merav and myself on our background stories, our work with tobacco and tree medicines, the process of working with plants in a dieta, what the benefits of this work are, and how the process unfolds on the physical, emotional, and spiritual levels. It was really nice to be able to share our work and shed some light on this unique process. Angell did a great job with the interview and I hope you all will find this valuable in learning more about plant medicines, the dieta, and tobacco and trees as medicine.

“At an early age, I left my home country of Israel to study fine arts in Europe. In 2009, while traveling in South America, I decided to go to the Amazon. The work with Ayahuasca was a gate to the magical world of medicinal plants. The Amazon is truly the pharmacy of planet Earth. I have been working for eight years as a healer trained with Amazonian plants, specializing in Tobacco. Beforehand, I apprenticed with Maestro Ernesto Garcia Torres in Iquitos. As a healer, I work with patients suffering from hormonal imbalance, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, and more. In addition, I give Master Plant diets and teach students who are interested in learning how to heal with Tobacco. Tobacco is the medicine of my heart and I am here to share this medicine with the world. I invite you, with lots of love, to read about Tobacco, Plant Diets, and to take part in upcoming events.”

“For many years, Jason has had a deep interest in plants as medicine. After studying various modalities, he has lived, studied, and worked in the Amazon for the past decade. He runs plant medicine dietas in the Sacred Valley of Peru and throughout the world and has facilitated for many years ayahuasca workshops at the Temple of the Way of Light. He also started a podcast called The Universe Within Podcast. In his free time, he enjoys practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, spending time in nature, his motorcycle, and time at home.”

Ep. 99 - Bettina Fischer - Energy Work, Star Beings & Self Responsibility in a Time of Ascension

YouTube version:

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 99 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with Bettina Fischer. Bettina was recommended to me by two friends and colleagues, Marta and Allen, who I also interviewed in episodes 16 and 13 respectively. They both have worked with Bettina and both spoke very highly of her. Bettina describes herself as an energy worker and as a channel. We got into some really fascinating discussions about her life, her work, her journey in spirituality, star beings, ancient civilizations, the changing world, and how she finds the three pillars of self-love, self-responsibility, and self-expression to be vital in these changing times. I really enjoyed speaking with Bettina and think she has a really unique voice and perspective.

“I was born 1966 in Germany and worked most of my life in the office of our family business. Since 2016 I have been self-employed as a spiritual consultant.

Even as a child, I have always been sensitive to energy. Born an empath, I often had difficulty to discern between my own feelings and those of the people around me. In order to understand how the universe works, I began studying holy scriptures at the age of 12. At the time, there was not a lot of esoteric books available. My career in energy work began with Reiki in my early twenties.

Reiki opened channels and connections to the spirit world. I stepped through this door into a greater universe and began my journey through many different spiritual approaches and healing modalities. Over time I have integrated techniques and information from many different sources, took what resonated with me and customized it to apply for the benefit of the Earth, nature and the people who come to me for help.

For many years I have done and continue to do a lot of free-lancing with the Arcturian High Council and the Ashtar Galactic Command, mostly focused on helping our beloved planet with the Ascension Process. I am still primarily working for Earth, helping to stabilize the magnetic grid and releasing tension where needed. I have also been called upon to share my gifts with others so that as many people as possible can be supported in taking their next step on their own, individual path of Ascension.”

Ep. 38 - Ute Behrendt - Sacred Plant Medicines, Facilitation & Psycho-Spiritual Integration

YouTube version:

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 38 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with my friend Ute Behrendt. Ute and I met at the Amazonian plant medicine center, the Temple of the Way of Light, where she works as a facilitator for plant-medicine ceremonies working with the Shipibo lineage of medicine. I’ve worked with Ute for a number of years now and really enjoy her partnership, wisdom, kindness, and care for all of the guests she looks after. She has had a varied and interesting life including working in psychiatric hospitals and in therapeutic institutions in Germany. She has also spent a number of years learning from a strong Shipibo family of doctors. I think this gives her a really balanced and holistic approach to her work. She is constantly learning and growing and has a lot of insight to offer. I think you all will enjoy this conversation and learn a lot.

"Over the last years, Ute has dedicated herself to learn and study with long-term Masterplant Diets in a well-known and respected Shipibo Healer lineage in the Ucayali region in Peru. She sees herself as a bridge between ancestral wisdom and Western understanding of life. Besides studying in the Shipibo Tradition with Sacred Plants and her Shipibo Maestros, she also is studying different psycho-spiritual approaches to understand the mind and human experience better. For Ute, Psychology and Spirituality are not separate when you want to experience wholeness. She is fascinated about integrating and connecting different approaches and using different pathways to find and explore inner truth.

Ute has been involved in inner work for many years. She is organizing Masterplant Retreats & Diets and works as a facilitator in a well-known Ayahuasca Center. She also provides online psycho-spiritual inquiry sessions and mentoring packages. She believes that everyone has their own answers and wisdom inside, and that’s why she is focusing on questions and letting answers unfold by themselves. Ute loves to hold space and guide people in their own inner empowerment to find self-mastery and self-leadership. She believes that everyone is able to find inspiration through connecting to true essence.

Before she moved to Peru, she worked in a psychiatric hospital and in therapeutic institutions in Germany for almost 10 years. In her past work in supporting humans on their path of healing, she always felt there was a missing part. In Peru, working and studying with the Shipibo Healers and Sacred Plant Medicine, she found the missing link.”
