Initiated by Lightning: Trauma as a Sacred Rewiring
Tags: trauma healing, neuroplasticity, intitations, Energy medicine, Andean Mysticism, plant medicine, DMN, psychadelic therapy
How trauma cracks perception open and reveals a portal into the soul’s higher gifts.
There is a kind of spiritual initiation in Peru that comes straight out of the sky.
Across the world’s spiritual traditions, initiations take many forms. Most are ceremonial and symbolic. Christian priests baptize parishioners with water to mark a rebirth in Christ, or offer communion through the ritual of bread and wine. In Judaism, the bar or bat mitzvah celebrates a coming of age. These are gentle rites of passage.
But in the high Andes of Peru, there is an initiation that comes not through ritual, but through lightning.
Many indigenous cultures have rites far more intense than the ceremonial softness of Western religion. Vision quests, burials, and Sun Dances are all deeply transformational…and often traumatic. In the Andes, some paqos, or Andean priest-healers, are said to be initiated by being struck by lightning. These are the altomesayokes, those who speak directly with the Apus, the mountain spirits. They are not chosen by human teachers, but by the cosmos itself.

Mysticism: The World is Alive
What if the universe were alive, aware, and already in relationship with you?
In the Andean tradition, everything in creation is made of kawsay — conscious, living energy. Mountains breathe. Rivers listen. Rocks remember. All of reality begins in the kawsaypacha, an immaterial field of divine energy, and unfolds into form. From this perspective, nothing is inert or lifeless—everything is an extension of Source, awake and participating in the web of existence.
Mysticism, at its root, is the belief that we can commune directly with that Source. Unlike many spiritual or religious traditions that rely on intermediaries—angels, saints, spirit guides—mysticism holds that divine connection is innate. The sacred speaks through experience, not dogma...

Moving From Patience to Acceptance
Tags: Andean Healing Arts, Timelines, Surfing Timelines, Impulse, Emotional Intelligence, Atiy, patience is a virtue
It is said that patience is a virtue. By this we mean that impatience and impulsivity are things we must overcome in our journey toward emotional maturity. As children we want it all now. Yesterday even! We wind ourselves up and become anxious, we push the river, we demand! We want and we create angst in that wanting. Maturity comes in recognizing that there is a divine timing to all things. For us to get what we want, the universe has to do a lot of shuffling and reshuffling of the deck. And then, when and if the moment is right, everything lines up and it is time!

Mastay: Healing From Trauma Is A Reorganization of Your Soul
Tags: Trauma, healing, psychedelic therapy, shamanic healing, soul work
There is order to all of Creation. Think of a human body. It starts from two cells, an egg and a sperm. They come together in a single moment and then begin to organize and multiply into an array of highly differentiated cells signaling back and forth to each other, creating a complex being pulsing with life. These cells multiply and replace themselves many times through a lifetime, renewing themselves to keep the organism healthy and vibrant. This intricate ordering can be disrupted, however, and a new one can unfold. A missing, damaged, or extra chromosome, for example, can cause a mutation that results in a different form or structure. Creation is an endless process of ordering and reordering. But not all form is viable or healthy. Creation just creates. Take cancer, for example. We know that metastatic cell proliferation usually occurs in response to a stressor. The resulting mutations drive cells into reproducing themselves without check. A new order ensues but not a healthy one.

Remember Who You are!

We trip over, and loop through, an internal feedback system of thought, perception, and emotion and call it our reality…. It’s quite compelling and we are often unable to see outside this thing we have created to be “me.”

Trauma, Freeze, and Consent
Tags: Fight or flight, Healing, Shamanic healing, rewiring the brain
It has been said that trauma is a thief. Whatever it was that happened, the worst of it often lies downstream. The events may have been horrific, in and of themselves, but trauma also steals from us our future and our self respect. Like interest on a maxed out credit card the effects of trauma are compounded daily. Especially when it happened early in life. As children we are usually considerably outmatched by our aggressors. The default stress response is to flee or to fight back. But when we are small this is usually not an option. Children facing violence, abuse, or violations of their boundaries and bodies have but one option: to survive it. A third stress response called Freeze takes over. Freeze is a shut down of all physical and emotional responses. It is akin to the opossum playing dead. The goal is to live. We go into shock, into paralysis, and then we dissociate, leaving our bodies to the circumstances at hand.
