San Pedro (or Huachuma/Wachuma) is a cactus that has been used as a sacred plant medicine for at least 3,000 years in the Andes of Peru. The medicine can help us to perceive self-created barriers and limitations, open our hearts, transform who we are, and free us to connect with others, the divine, and the beauty of nature.
From my experience, San Pedro can be enhanced with a regular yoga, meditation, or breathwork practice. Time in nature, sound healing, indigenous wisdom rituals, rest, talk therapy, and the company of good people are likewise essential. This is why I have designed ceremonies to incorporate multiple modalities — drawing from modern neuroscience and psychotherapeutic techniques as much as from shamanic practices and ancient wisdom traditions.
There are many ways to hold a San Pedro ceremony. Some do it during the day; others, at night. You can have a sweat lodge. You can incorporate other medicines like tobacco. Etc. In this video, I briefly describe one way of holding a San Pedro ceremony for small groups.
