WACHUMA CEREMONY NETHERLANDS

Connect deeply with Grandfather Wachuma (San Pedro) and your inner nature

Normally Dutch Janneke and her Peruvian husband Jhon live in the Andes, where they have a retreat centre. This summer, they are coming together for the second time to the Netherlands with one of their wise Teacher Plants: the cactus Wachuma (also called San Pedro). You will again have the chance to be at one of their ceremonies. An opportunity to connect deeply with yourself, others and nature.

‘During this 2-day retreat, we will experience the spirit of the teacher plant Wachuma together,’ says Jhon. ‘Grandfather Wachuma originates from the Andean regions of South America. It is respected there as a powerful plant medicine and has been used for thousands of years by indigenous peoples in traditional medicine and spiritual practices.’

What is the power of Wachuma?

‘Wachuma` in quechua (the local language) means: Wachu: row, Uma: head. It means cultivating the mind, raising consciousness. Wachuma is heart-opening and helps us tune in, integrate and ground. It can connect us to the primal state of Being and induce profound spiritual experiences,’ says Jhon.

The effects of Wachuma can last for several hours. Although each individual’s experience is unique, it is often experienced that the senses are sharpened and you come to deep spiritual and emotional insights.
Wachuma can support healing in family systems, depression, anxiety and deep patterns. Wachuma has the gift of opening a deep connection with our ancestors and our inner child.
