Shipibo Ayahuasca Curanderos

Raul, Lidia and Americo are a family of traditional Curanderos from the Shipibo tribe from Pucallpa in the Amazon Rainforest, Peru. Americo and Lidia are brother and sister, with Raul being their older half brother. They were all trained from a young age by their Grandfather who was also a Curandero and each has a lifetime of experience working with Ayahuasca and the medicinal plants of the jungle.

Raul has worked as a Curandero since his early twenties and has travelled with the medicine to many parts of Peru. He has worked with personal clients, in retreat settings and in hospitals. He has a strong connection to his Incan ancestors and, after travelling to Cusco and the Sacred Valley when he was young, has a great love for the area. You will often hear references to the Incas, Cusco, and sites around the Sacred Valley in his icaros! Raul has a powerful presence in ceremony and a gentle way of working with people for energetic cleanses outside of ceremony. He is extremely dedicated to his work and has a deep understanding of Shipibo cosmology and his ancestry, and is always willing to answer questions and share information about the medicine and his ancestors.

Lidia Huayta Ramirez

Lidia is a dedicated and passionate healer who works closely with retreat and ceremony participants both inside and outside of ceremony. She loves working with the medicine and enjoys teaching and sharing her knowledge of the healing plants with anyone who wants to learn. Outside of ceremony, she is skilled at healing massage which she offers to those experiencing long-term pain, illness or injury. Lidia is also a talented embroiderer, sewing traditional Shipibo tapestries, clothing and accessories with desgins inspired by visions she has seen in her ceremonies, and her work is available to purchase during retreats and after ceremonies. When not working, she lives in Pucallpa with her children and grandchildren.

Americo is passionate about his healing work and enters every ceremony with great enthusiasm. He loves working with the plants, singing Icaros, and preparing medicines and remedies. When not working with us, he spends his time in Pucallpa and Lima, helping his clients overcome many illnesses. Americo has the special ability to sing icaros during his work outside of ceremony and gives powerful cleanses to those in need. He loves sharing his wisdom and insights and is always willing to teach and explain about the medicines.

Thank you Jess, and thank you Curandero Americo, for the profound limpiezas (cleansing ceremonies) and Ayahuasca ceremony in Taray. I have enjoyed the magic and beautiful experience a lot, with deep healing, particularly on my physical body dimension. I felt extremely comfortable with the shared warmth, professionalism, and expertise with plant medicines. I do highly recommend joining Jess's healing work, ceremonies and retreats.
