Ep. 31 - Imika Tarirú - Tubú, Ancestral Wisdom, Plant Medicine & The Word

YouTube version:

 

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 31 of the show is out. In this show, I spoke with my friend Imikā Tariru Bary Vera Kuary Baru. Imika comes from the Tubú nation in the Vaupes region of the Colombian Amazon, on the Apaporis river. I have worked with Imika over the last few years and I have a lot of respect for him and his teachings. I’ve spent quite a few nights in ceremony with him hearing Tubú stories and learning from Imika’s words. He carries a deep wisdom that is born from a beautiful tradition. I think voices like his are important in sharing and keeping alive and helping to, as he says, build a new maloka (ceremonial house), bridging traditions from all directions of the world. I think you all will gain a lot from listening to this talk, much as I did. And a big thank you to my friend Claude for translating this conversation, capturing the essence and beauty of Imika’s words, and opening the conversation to a much larger audience. You can also see my interview with him in episode 10 of the show. To view bonus material and extended conversations, check out my Patreon page below. Enjoy!

¡Hola a todos! El episodio 31 del programa está disponible. En este programa, hablé con mi amiga Imikā Tariru Bary Vera Kuary Baru. Imika proviene de la nación Tubú en la región del Vaupés de la Amazonía colombiana, en el río Apaporis. He trabajado con Imika en los últimos años y tengo mucho respeto por él y sus enseñanzas. He pasado varias noches en ceremonia con él escuchando historias de Tubú y aprendiendo de las palabras de Imika. Lleva una profunda sabiduría que nace de una hermosa tradición. Creo que voces como la suya son importantes para compartir y mantener vivas y ayudar, como él dice, a construir una nueva maloka (casa ceremonial), uniendo tradiciones de todas las direcciones del mundo. Creo que todos ganarán mucho escuchando esta charla, tanto como yo. Y un gran agradecimiento a mi amigo Claude por traducir esta conversación, capturar la esencia y la belleza de las palabras de Imika y abrir la conversación a una audiencia mucho más amplia. También puedes ver mi entrevista con él en el episodio 10 del programa. Para ver material adicional y conversaciones extendidas, consulte mi página de Patreon a continuación. ¡Que disfruta!

“Wisdom keeper, Ancestral Healer and spiritual guide of the Tubú Nation. Jaguars of the Yurupari and dancer. 

“I believe in the construction of a society associated with dance - the peak of knowledge and the maximum vehicle for healing, transmitted in stories. Within the dances, there are collective strategies that allow for a weaving and intersecting of paths as a way to create balance for humanity. The meaning  of dancing and listening to the stories is to be able to maintain the community healthy from within our differences.”

Imika was raised in community on the banks of the Apaporis River under the guidance of his father Hummugubu. His life in the urban context has not been easy, but in taking on the responsibility to share his knowledge with the purpose of collective healing, he has met a challenge that has brought positive results. Always ready to listen, Imika teaches by example in action, sharing freely and always ready to keep learning in this dizziness of life. Imika is the founder of the TUBÚ HɄMMɄRIMASA Urban Council and the creator of the SUARY project. These projects serve as ways to reunite the community and to interweave and color the paths of life, sharing and exchanging from simplicity, and in respect for the differences between us in daily life. They offer an alternative way of relating and a way to break down the barriers that are used to separate and classify humans.“


“Guardián de la Sabiduría, Sanador Ancestral y guía espiritual de la Nación Tubú. Jaguares del Yurupari y bailarina.

“Creo en la construcción de una sociedad asociada a la danza, cúspide del conocimiento y máximo vehículo de sanación, transmitida en historias. Dentro de las danzas, existen estrategias colectivas que permiten un tejido e intersección de caminos como una forma de crear equilibrio para la humanidad. El significado de bailar y escuchar las historias es poder mantener saludable a la comunidad desde nuestras diferencias.”

Imika se crió en comunidad a orillas del río Apaporis bajo la dirección de su padre Hummugubu. Su vida en el contexto urbano no ha sido fácil, pero al asumir la responsabilidad de compartir sus conocimientos con el propósito de la curación colectiva, ha enfrentado un desafío que ha traído resultados positivos. Siempre dispuesta a escuchar, Imika enseña con el ejemplo en acción, compartiendo libremente y siempre dispuesta a seguir aprendiendo en este vértigo de la vida. Imika es la fundadora del Ayuntamiento de TUBÚ HɄMMɄRIMASA y la creadora del proyecto SUARY. Estos proyectos sirven como formas de reunir a la comunidad y de entrelazar y colorear los caminos de la vida, compartiendo e intercambiando desde la sencillez y el respeto a las diferencias entre nosotros en la vida diaria. Ofrecen una forma alternativa de relacionarse y una forma de romper las barreras que se utilizan para separar y clasificar a los humanos ”.

Ep. 30 - Brian James - Yoga + Plant Medicine + Shamanism

YouTube version:

 

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 30 of the show is out. In this show, I spoke with my friend Brian James. Brian and I met working together at the Amazonian plant-medicine center the Temple of the Way of Light. Brian is a yoga teacher and plant-medicine practitioner. I always really enjoy talking to Brian as he has a real depth of knowledge of yoga from a perspective that not many people have. He does a wonderful job at explaining the roots of the yogic practice and also how he sees the interconnection between that path and the path of shamanism. For such broad and diverse subjects, he is able to beautifully explain them in simple ways and show the universality of all of these paths. I think you all will gain a lot from listening to this talk, much as I did. To view bonus material and extended conversations, check out my Patreon page below. Enjoy!

“Brian James is a transformational coach, yoga teacher, musician and shamanic practitioner currently living Vancouver Island, Canada with his wife Debbie and their dog Kingston. 

A lifelong musician, artist, and curious seeker, Brian began exploring yoga and plant medicines over twenty-five years ago. After a crisis in his mid-thirties — burned out from his job in advertising and struggling with stress, anxiety and addiction — he began his own healing journey in earnest. He’s spent the last decade learning from master teachers and exploring in greater depth the medicine paths of yoga, music, shamanism and psychology. He shares conversations with some of the teachers he’s met on the Medicine Path Podcast and has written two books: Yoga & Plant Medicine, published in 2019, and Harmonic Movement, a vinyasa yoga practice manual.

Since 2012, Brian has dedicated his life to sharing the healing power of yoga and music, and has taught around the world — from Shanghai, China to the heart of the Amazon jungle. He regularly teaches group classes and workshops and works 1-to-1 with individuals, helping them develop a personal practice and supporting them in recovering a sense of wholeness and freedom. “

Ep. 29 - Eduardo Carvalho - Plant Medicine, Dietas & Ceremony

YouTube version:

 

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 29 of the show is out. In this show, I spoke with my friend Eduardo Carvalho. Eduardo and I met working together at the Amazonian plant-medicine center the Temple of the Way of Light. ‘Edu’ has a really interesting story and I’ve gotten to know him and seen him do really good work. He approaches this work through his own journey of healing and knowledge and brings that depth to his work. He is a very talented musician and a genuinely nice guy with a big heart and desire to share and help. I have a lot of respect for Edu and I hope his sharing inspires and teaches. If you're in Europe or Portugal and looking for ceremonies, you'd be in good hands with Edu. To view bonus material and extended conversations, check out my Patreon page below. Enjoy!

“Eduardo Carvalho is a musician with 23 years of experience.

Four years ago he started his spiritual adventure with sacred medicine plants. The work started by going through his own process of healing by doing ceremonies in the Netherlands and dieting in Peru. On this journey it was clear that his music skill and vibration would become his new life path. At that time he was invited to tour Europe and Peru doing ceremonies with a ‘Mestizo’ shaman. After an extensive process of retreats, the time came to part ways with his shaman and then he embarked on a self-healing journey with Shipibo lineage shamans doing dietas in Peru with different curanderos.

In January of 2019, he took a ‘curandero initiation course’ by the Ayahuasca Foundation at the Inkan Kena plant medicine school in Iquitos dieting master plants and learning all of what entails leading an ayahuasca ceremony.

The personal approach to the work can be varied between icaros from different lineages, plus the medicine songs and several different types of instruments and frequencies.

All done with love and care..”

Ep. 28 - Merav Artzi - Sacred Tobacco, Dietas & Healing

YouTube version:

 

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 28 of the show is out. In this show, I spoke with my friend and colleague Merav Artzi. I have known and worked with Merav for a number of years. We did the same plant-medicine initiation and training, working with tobacco and tree diets. Merav is a great wealth of knowledge and has a depth of experience working with plant medicines. She runs ceremonies and dietas in the tobacco tradition in which she was trained. I have a lot of respect for Merav and her work. It’s one of the main reasons I decided to join forces with her and offer plant dietas together with her, joining our knowledge and offering the benefits of working with a man and woman. I think you all will get a lot out of this podcast. It’s a chance to learn about her and also more about tobacco, a very powerful and sacred plant that isn’t so well known. To view bonus material and extended conversations, check out my Patreon page below. Enjoy!

“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.”
