As interested as I am in shamanic practices, I could have not missed experiencing the Kambo.
The first time it was not as powerful as the second time... 
At the beginning of this year,
Ashrai being the Medicine Woman,
in perfect emphatic connection with the Feminine Presence, 
and in my Home, one of my favorite spaces and places I consider sacred, just a small circle of 3 ladies....
So, I will focus on the experience that made itself evident to me thru my consciousness spectrum,
and my mind...throughout my Heart.
I love tho whole ceremony, from setting up, praying the 4 directions for guidance and protection,
to the moment of "blowing" herbs through the nostrils to clear the mind,
...even if it leaves me out of breath for few seconds.
Nothing really scares me, when I am fully committed, and taking this medicine has to do with the Will of breaking through my own patterns, of course, which requires Self-Will.
The first act of connecting with the herbs is already...relaxing and sets me in the mood,
in a state of "letting go" of controlling everything in my knowledge.
I begin relaxing and being present right when I loose control over my body, I guess.
Then there is the sacred act of preparing to receive the medicine. 
The skin will be gently burned using a sacred stick, and also in this case there is a direct participation, since I got to choose on which arm I can receive between 3 and 7 spots in any shape (I picked the one of a triangle).
It all means a lot to me, and meant a lot in the process of liberating my Self from conditionings that have been encapsulated in my mind in the last 46 years I have lived on Earth.
I took the medicine willingly and freely for 11 minutes; I gave up the fight of resisting with my Ego, and finally I found a place where I could trust the medicine taking care of my baggage, the one I know it serves me no more.
A light sense of nausea made my body contract, so that the act of releasing was pressed by the bottom through the mouth,
and simply let go.
The "come back" is fast, and empowering... I already felt the strength rising up, right after...even if you got to take it easy!
The next day I had already noticed how much the need of being honest was pushing though my chest, how words come easier, and the urgency of expressing the Inner Truth, the feelings become vivid and are clear to the consciousness.
An alignment with the Higher Self, the honest act of washing the lies off, embracing the Soul...
Taking this medicine has a long time effect on the Soul, almost irrevocably forward evolution, of those that nothing can bring it back.
It is gentle and subtle, and it requires attention and self-observation to be perceived.
So profound.
I am still nurturing the awakening received the moment of connecting with "the Frog of Peru",
an ancestor, a guidance from Earth...
Thank you, Ashrai for being on service.

I did three consecutive days of Sapo with Ashraya and highly recommend it to anyone interested in healing their body, mind, and spirit. Having never done it, I was nervous and scared of the unknown. Ashraya did an amazing job of calming my anxieties and created a safe container with ritual and prayer. She is highly experienced in both plant medicines and western medicines.  It was so wonderful to have a private session as I did not know what was going to happen and truly appreciated the 1:1 support.

The three days in a row gave me a full body mind and soul reboot. I have felt calmer, clearer, and more at peace. I notice my digestion has been better and I am less worried. 

I have already recommended Ashraya with confidence to other friends, and have heard amazing things from them as well.
