In this podcast episode of my Ayahuasca Adventure Series I sit down with New Life Ayahuasca's Ayahuasquero, Matthew Mormello

In an era where the word 'shaman' gets overused, authenticity and true intention are hard to find. At New Life Ayahuasca, you're in good hands.  Since 2014 Matthew has been traveling to Iquitos, Peru to learn the Peruvian traditions and completing plant dietas. New Life Ayahuasca's intimate ceremonies are performed with respect to the traditions that have surrounded the use of the sacred medicine ayahuasca for centuries. Matthew is thei resident ayahuasquero. While Matt would never refer to himself as a shaman, Matthew’s intentions and passion in his work are unparalleled. There is no question of his integrity or his sincerity in his mission to help others. His presence during each ceremony is strong and grounding. Matthew sings Icaros, plays the gong, guitar and drum to help guide the participants experience in ceremony.

We discuss his incredible journey to becoming an ayahuasquero, what it's like to be one, what it's like to conduct a ceremony under the influence of ayahuasca, what she has taught him, and more about their incredible retreat center in Costa Rica.
