Maestra Ayerim Gza

Ayerim, a name bestowed upon her during a profound spiritual journey, marks the beginning of a transformative path as a recognized medicine practitioner. Her journey into the world of sacred medicines began in January 2019 at the Centro Ceremonial Metamorphosis in Aguascalientes, Mexico. This initiation opened doors to a realm of healing and self-discovery that would change her life in unexpected and beautiful ways. Since then, Ayerim has honed her skills and knowledge, becoming a respected guide and healer in the spiritual community.

Ayerim has been privileged to learn from esteemed teachers such as Miski Takiy, Alonso del Rio, and has thoroughly studied the principles of the Four Altars path. These experiences have deepened her understanding and connection with sacred plants like Mother Ayahuasca, Grandfather Peyote, and San Pedro Huachuma. Each plant, with its unique spirit and wisdom, has guided her on a path of healing and enlightenment.

In 2021, Ayerim began guiding ceremonies at Inner Journeys in Houston, across Mexico, and various other cities in the USA, bringing the medicine to those in need. Her dedication to this path led her to become a member of the ONAC Native American Mother Church in 2022, further solidifying her commitment to the spiritual and healing practices of indigenous traditions.

The year 2024 marked a significant milestone in Ayerim's journey as she ventured into the heart of the Amazon jungle in Pucallpa, Peru. There, she studied under the guidance of the Escudero teachers at Amazonian Heart Medicine, who have dedicated over 25 years to the study of sacred plants learning from the Shipibo tribes. Through rigorous training and deep immersion, Ayerim became a formally recognized practitioner of Ayahuasca, Kambo, Yopo, tobacco, and other sacred master plants from the jungle.

Ayerim's work is deeply rooted in the ancient traditions of Amazonian plant medicine, where Ayahuasca has been used for centuries as a tool for healing and spiritual connection. This sacred brew, made from the Ayahuasca vine and chacruna leaves, is known for its potent healing properties and transformative visionary experiences. Ayerim's ceremonies are a journey into the depths of the psyche, offering profound healing on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels.

Through her practice, Ayerim embodies the wisdom and compassion of the sacred plants, guiding others on their own paths of healing and self-discovery. She believes that these plant medicines have the power to unlock the deepest layers of our consciousness, helping us to confront and heal past traumas, release emotional blockages, and reconnect with our true selves. Her mission is to create a safe, nurturing space where individuals can embark on their own journeys of transformation, experiencing the profound healing and growth that these sacred plants offer.

Ayerim approaches her ceremonies with the philosophy that healing is a holistic process that encompasses the mind, body, and spirit. She believes in the transformative power of sacred plants to bring balance and harmony to one's life. Her mission is to guide individuals on their journey toward wholeness and self-discovery, providing a sacred space where they can explore their inner landscapes and connect with the wisdom of the plants. Through compassionate guidance and deep reverence for the ancient traditions, Ayerim aims to facilitate profound healing and spiritual growth for all who have the calling.
