Leila's Story
Leila's experience includes hundreds of ceremonies learning from indigenous shamans from the Amazonas region of Colombia and across the US. These experiences have helped cultivate a deep respect for the rich culture and tradition of plant medicine healing. With this unique perspective she is able to honor the spirit of the medicine in a modern context. Leila draws from ancient shamanic tradition as well as modern science to provide a safe and authentic experience for ceremony participants. Ceremonies are interwoven with world music from multicultural backgrounds infused with ancient wisdom and healing. Leila is also a Kambo practitioner trained through Kambo International and is a Certified Clinical Master Herbalist.
