Guidance Rooted in Experience

Eli’s Journey of Healing

Eli was blessed to grow up in a family and community dedicated to the spiritual path. However, he faced health challenges and other personal struggles that led him to seek deeper healing.

At 19, after the passing of his brother, heartbreak pushed him to search for something more. This profound loss set him on a soul-searching journey that took him to India and deep into the Amazon jungle, where he studied with wisdom keepers. Through years of immersion in shamanism rituals, eastern meditation traditions, and modern therapeutic practices, Eli experienced firsthand the power of true transformation.

Now, with over a decade of experience as a shamanic guide, meditation teacher, and mentor, Eli has dedicated himself to helping others heal from the past, unlock their heart’s song, and step into a joyful life, service-driven life. His work integrates ancient wisdom with modern somatic practices to support people in living a beautiful life connected with Mother Nature.

What Makes a Private Ceremony Different?

A private ceremony offers a unique opportunity to create a sacred space for deep healing. It allows us to address ancestral karma and spiritual wounds that your soul has long sought to heal. While group ceremonies also bring their own powerful and transformative energy, private ceremonies—whether with just yourself, a few friends, or family—often provide more direct guidance and go straight to the root of what needs to be addressed.

This deeper focus occurs because the intentions of the participants are more concentrated, and the purpose of the ceremony is very specific. Private ceremonies aren’t something we simply plan—they are often written long ago in the wisdom of nature, and now we are answering that call.

If you have any further questions about our private ceremony offerings, please feel free to reach out.

The most important thing is to ask your heart. Inside all of us, there is a calling to live with more love and to uncover our innate freedom. It is our journey to find what tools can support us in this inner discovery and to find a community in that exact search so we can remind each other when we inevitably fall off the path.

If you have never tried the medicine before and something is drawing you towards it then it’s worth a try. Ultimately, it may not be a path you continue to follow, but it could also bring a beautiful shift in your life. If there is hesitancy around joining, know you can go at your own pace.

We cannot make any guarantees. In the end it takes a certain desire and openness from each participant to walk through the door and step into a better life. However, we can guarantee that you will feel loved and supported by a community who will walk you towards the door. We do have many participants that have resolved all sorts of traumas, physical illness and other ailments.

The medicine is a very powerful ally who can support us in this healing process. Sometimes we may leave a retreat with a trauma completely resolved or other times we may leave with new found strength to continue our healing journey.

If you were preparing for heart surgery, you would want to ensure that the procedure is performed by the best specialists available. Going to drink plant medicine is like going for a spiritual surgery where we are healing old karmic wounds, clearing energy stagnation in your subtle body, and coming back to wholeness. Who knows if this will be your only time drinking the medicine or if you will come to drink again.

Either way our spiritual growth is the most important thing we can invest in our whole lives. A well-nurtured spiritual path can bring balance and harmony to all other aspects of your life.

At our ceremonies, we recognize that each individual comes from different backgrounds and requires a unique set of tools to find peace. We integrate a wide range of modalities from various traditions, ensuring you have the most supportive tools to leave empowered and continue your journey toward true freedom.

With The Nature Within team, you can expect excellence and dedicated support. We look forward to supporting you on this transformative journey.

We all carry various blocks within ourselves, which can stem from genetic lines, excessive thinking, karmic influences, societal pressures, and daily life experiences. These blocks manifest as stagnation in our subtle body, the energy field that connects our consciousness with our physical being.

Ambiwaska engages with us in a profound way by initiating a dialogue with our heart. As the medicine begins its work, it prompts an inner investigation, uncovering old memories or unresolved situations.

This process helps bring to light what has been hidden within our hearts. As the journey unfolds, it becomes a sweet experience of rediscovery. We reconnect with parts of ourselves that may have felt abandoned or neglected.

These aspects are like inner child parts seeking love and attention. By engaging with these parts and understanding their needs, we embark on a healing journey. As we integrate these aspects and achieve inner wholeness, we naturally experience a more harmonious relationship with life.

The Ayahuasca
Essential Handbook

"To heal is to reconnect with the essence of who you truly are."

The art of healing comes from nature, not from the physician. Therefore, the physician must start from nature, with an open mind.
