Manu
Manu first set foot in Peru in 2010. Captivated by the magic of the Amazon, he returned time and again, each visit deepening his connection to this extraordinary land. In 2015, Manu embarked on his journey with Ayahuasca and plant medicines, learning from the Shipibo tradition. This path led him to begin a formal shamanic apprenticeship in 2019, marking a profound commitment to the healing wisdom of the Amazon.
Manu’s passion has driven him to dedicate himself to a healing center that honors indigenous traditions, supports local communities, and works tirelessly to preserve the rainforest. His warmth and love for people shine through in everything he does. Whether engaging in heartfelt conversations, sharing laughter, or playing a spontaneous song on his guitar, Manu delights in connecting with others. With him, every moment feels like a celebration of life and the beauty of human connection.

Beyond the ceremonies, our healers possess an incredible knowledge of Amazonian plants and the art of plant dietas. Their understanding of these natural allies and their gentle guidance ensure a truly authentic and life-changing experience. With our healers, you are in the hands of compassionate and deeply skilled masters of their craft.
