About the event
We welcome you to a Magical Medicine Retreat. An ancient key to Mystery. A deep dive into consciousness under the guidance of Maya Martínez Gomez.
About our Retreats:
Our ceremonies are held with pure love. We are trained guardians of these medicines and hold powerful, potent, and safe containers. We hold our ceremonies in sacred silence, carried by live sound frequency, (songs, ikaros, chants and prayers) that have been passed to us through our teachers and trainings with the lineages of these sacred plants and amphibians.
We invite you to join us for this beautiful and loving prayer, as we support one another on our journeys of healing and expansion through deep inner work. Your presence in our circle means we are meant to weave on this planet, often coming together again and again through lifetimes, to support one another's learning and growth.
About the Facilitator ~ Maya:
Maya Martinez, founder of Somos Sanctuary, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit plant medicine church, was raised in both Colombia and New York City. She has studied with indigenous teachers from Colombia, Mexico, the United States, and Brazil, where she was given the name Sakakatwa ‘Rainbow’ by the Fulniô Tribe. As a dedicated student, Maya deepens her studies with sacraments and traditional ceremonial practices that help raise the planet's vibration. She shares her ancient wisdom and high vibrational frequency with great honor, permission, and care, guiding those ready to receive this knowledge.
