Don Howard Lawler is an American born, Peruvian citizen who has been practicing the art of sacred plant shamanism for 50 years. Don Howard is the founder and principal maestro of Peruvian Spirit Quest Listening to the Plants, traditional retreats and pilgrimages exploring the deepest roots of traditional Peruvian shamanism, and focusing on holistic healing, personal transformation, and realization of ancient shamanic spiritual truth. As a life-long shamanic practitioner, don Howard combines extensive knowledge of ethnobotany, pre-columbian Peruvian archeology, and traditional archaic shamanism to guide profoundly stimulating and transformative experiences for the serious seeker. This episode was recorded during a 2-week retreat hosts Andy and Mike were on with don Howard in July of 2017. It was an honour for us to sit down with this man and dive deep into his primary calling of Huachuma shamanism, post-columbian known as San Pedro. Do not miss this one! Mike has attended 5 retreats with don Howard and Andy has attended 2, with his 3rd coming again soon. If you ever wanted to attend a retreat with the highest amount of integrity, safety and traditions, this is the place. They specialize in both Ayahuasca and Huachuma Peruvian shamanism. http://biopark.org
