Since I finished the week of Chiric Sanango's diet I was asked to write a testimony of my experience with this plant, sharing it with others. I've been waiting to do it for some time now.. for the right mood, the appropriate state of mind.. cause describing something of this kind to people who haven't experience it is not easy. There are moments in which words don't seem to belong to the same world of the things they try to describe.. and so it happens with plant diets and ayahuasca realms. One full moon cycle has passed since I started the diet, and I am now standing at 4000 meters, sitting in a rock glancing at a majestic and luminous lake, inbetween bright blue clear skies and their reflections over magical waters. Colibris flying around the cliff's flowers remind me of Nixipae¡s logo and give me the drive to sit down and write about this last month's happenings. Read more... |

I had never tried a diet before. Actually I`d never heard about it. I had been going to a school in Norway learning about the Queros` way of healing. Now we were on a school-journey in Peru, travelling around with the Queros, learning from them. First we had been to Corto Maltes for three days and then moved on, to all the places "you must see" for three weeks. It was great, but the very next day after our journey was over I returned to Corto Maltes. The jungle was what I had been looking forward to visit before we went to Peru, and I just had to come back. I had planned to stay there for five days, drinking a couple of Ayahuascas. That`s how I met Fernando and Kuitzi, and it turned out to stay there for one month instead.

Five months ago I took a trip to Peru. I had no solid reasons for leaving the States. I had just moved to New York. Been there for three months only. But thoughts of Peru grew into my mind. I would see the word Peru many times a day. Peru The idea grew and grew until the intuition had to be acted upon, and I bought a plane ticket to Lima. When I told my family and friends about my decision, I encountered many words of warning and aversion. Many people did not want me to go. My parents pleaded. My friends looked worried. But still I managed to follow the signs. And so you can imagine the process of intuition- the synchronicities, the turning days which wound me around until one day I found myself in the beautiful jungle greeted by the graceful faces of Fernando and Kuitzi. |

"This was not my first jungle diet, but after my terrible experience with the first, I knew much better the conditions necessary when you are in such a sensitive state. To start with, it is important to have full confidence in the people who will be looking after you, and next it is important to be in a place where you are not going to be bothered by loud music or parties or any other unnatural disturbances. In these respects the diet with Fernando at Sowewankeri was excellent – no sound other than the natural sounds of the jungle, an incredible view, and being looked after by friends". |
