Guides and Facilitators

Mikaela is a kambo and ayahuasca facilitator, certified transformational coach and hatha yoga- and meditation teacher. At 19 years old she came to Ayahuasca and through her an encounter with divine love that transformed her life. Then she stayed to live in the Guatemalan and Peruvian Rainforest for eight years, where she developed Sinchi Runa together with Maestro Sanango.
Mikaela serves Ayahuasca with deep reverence and integrity and dedicates herself to creating a space in which Ayahuasca can be safely experienced in its full potential. During the past decade she’s dieted with a variety of shamanic master plants and gone through hundreds of Ayahuasca ceremonies, purges and shamanic processes. The first three years of her learning she spent most of her time alone in the jungle without communication with the “outer world”. During this time she went through many shamanic diets, communicating with Ayahuasca, the plant spirits, the natural world and the divine love of which we’re all part. A process that proved invaluable to her understanding of the medicine and allowing her to serve others in similar processes. Moreover, she is studying alternative and complimentary therapies, seeking to implement a deep therapeutic safety and care, bridging shamanic insight and healing with a safe therapeutic framework and yogic practices. She is also a mother and spends most of her time rediscovering the world with her five-year old son Maitreya.
“I have felt the pain and cry of the Earth and I have cried with her. I have seen the deep inherent goodness and greatness of humanity and been filled with hope. I have felt our eternal nature of pure divine love and our human nature as gardeners and caretakers of the field of our minds, hearts and of this beautiful Earth. I have danced with fairies in moonlit forests and I have ventured into the dark and hidden parts of my being, continuously learning to hold my pain with greater compassion and recover the purity and innocence of my heart. I have fallen in love with existence in all its nuances. Ayahuasca opened my eyes, my soul, my being and has given me the opportunity to hold space for others to journey with her. I am convinced of the incredible healing power of this medicine and believe this is one of the greatest gifts humanity could receive in this time. I cannot express in words how meaningful this is to me, but through facilitating these processes I am filled with gratitude. Through this work, I see so many people rediscover their own undoubtable truth and beauty. I see people communicate with the Universe while their suffering transforms into great wisdom. I am so honored to be here.”

Kameron has been learning from Sanango and facilitating retreats at Sinchi Runa during the last four years. He has gone through various shamanic diets and spent much time in solitude and communion with Ayahuasca and other master plants in the Peruvian Rainforest.

Ananda helps to facilitate retreats at Sinchi Runa, and is on a path of learning with Maestro Sanango and the Master Plants. He has spent many months in silence and solitude, dieting a variety of master plants and communing with Ayahuasca and the plant world, before beginning to assist on retreats at Sinchi Runa. With a caring and calm presence, Ananda helps to hold space for the process of all who come for healing, and assists Maestro Sanango in retreats.
Prior to Sinchi Runa, Ananda spent many years practicing meditation, attending and serving on silent retreats, and eventually maturing his practice to begin sharing what he had learned on his journey. He continues to make use of this to help guide participants in their processes and encounters with the Master Plants.
“Ayahuasca continues to help me discover what I am and let go what I thought I was. She helps me to remember my nature of Love, an eternal existence beyond all ideas or thoughts of my mind. She has shown me the compassion and love that exists in the heart of humanity, and a hope for what humanity could become in remembering and embracing it’s heart. She helps me to see me my own suffering, to heal and to let go, and teaches me to recognise that same suffering, and the same heart, in everyone and everything around me. I am so honoured and so very humbled to be able to play my small role in serving this sacred medicine, and to share that which has made such a difference to my own healing and life.”
