Niños Santos: Sacred Mushroom Ceremony

Schedule Intro Call to Join Ceremony: https://calendly.com/microlove

This single day ceremonial retreat will take place on Saturday July 13th from 11am to 5pm, guided by curandera/shamanic healer Alexis Gonzalez. Alexis was born in Ohlone Land, to Mexican parents and grandparents. Alexis’ own healing journey included communing with a variety of plant and animal medicines in South America, Mexico and in the Bay Area which lead her to study her ancestral traditions, customs and holistic ways of healing. Alexis was initiated through the Q’ero linage and follows Mazatec tradition when serving Los Niños Santos (“The Little Saint Children”).

The price for this 6 hour gathering is $350. Limited financial need discounted tickets for self-identified BIPOC, Queer, Non-binary, and Two-Spirit (please ask for discount during intro call)

The Mazatec believe that Los Niños Santos are living beings, full of love, energy and divine power that can heal our heart and soul from sickness by revealing to us the root cause of our problems and allowing release to take place for physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well being. This experience should be approached with the intent to heal yourself. This ceremony is not for anyone looking for a recreational experience, processing extreme grief, on lithium medication, bipolar or with schizophrenia.

This ceremony is curated with intention, love and safety. To ensure a safe, intimate, and immersive experience, the medicine circle will be limited to 12 participants. This ceremony may be offered bilingually- English/Spanish depending on the participants gathered in the circle.

What’s included? A pre-ceremony zoom call to meet each other, medicine ceremony: (cleanse, sacred mushrooms, meditation, guided healing journey through music and icaros, vegetarian organic meal), and a zoom integration circle 2 weeks post ceremony.

By attending this event, you’re not only immersing yourself in a day of healing and cultural expansion, but also actively contributing 10% to the preservation of Mazatec culture and also honoring indigenous reciprocity. For more information please visit: www.ffungi.org/en/mazatecas

If accepted, a non-refundable 10% ($35) deposit will be due to reserve your spot. This will allow us to still donate your portion to the Historias and Memorias Mazatec project in case you are no longer able to attend. The remaining balance will be due upon arrival.

In ceremony we connect, shed old narratives, gain new perspectives allowing us to have more compassion for ourselves and others, realign with our highest most empowered self, and reclaim our natural state: Love. Love really is transformational & the best medicine. This work is extremely powerful because the healing is not only for us, but for everyone around us. Healed people have the capacity to love unconditionally and heal others.

What are former participants saying:

“Thank you Alexis, that was powerful! I never experienced trauma purging like that! It was incredible! It’s not just my emotions that were healed, but I felt physical healing in my body as well.” Rose, Monterey, CA.

“I attended this ceremony. It was my first experience with mushrooms. I was scared to try them because people always talk about having a “bad trip” and I didn’t want that. When Alexis says it’s a sacred mushroom ceremony it’s because this really is a sacred mushroom ceremony. Alexis honors the medicine and the tradition behind it. Not only that, but she also gives back to the Mazatec. Alexis puts great care and intent into the ceremonies and it is felt in the experience. She does an amazing job at creating a sacred and safe space for all guests. I had a beautiful heart opening experience during this ceremony. It was a beautiful experience from start to finish. I highly recommend attending! Marisol, Pleasant Hill, CA

“I had the privilege to participate in an amazing ceremony with Alexis. I was able to hold and hug my ancestors in my lineage who had been hurt for a long time. We wept, we danced and then we flew. Be the change, do the work and allow your ancestors to feel joy through your healing in this lifetime.” Emelina, San Francisco, CA
