In 2020 (it was a strange year), I did a digital at-home shamanic (!!!) retreat with Blue Morpho and Hamilton Souther (see more here). I wrote a draft about my experience afterwards but for some reason did not publish it. … Continue reading

Art therapy. On why magpies are awesome
Read the word “evil” backwards. Interesting isn’t it? They say that when the witch dies, she turns into a magpie. Yin & yang – it makes sense. Nice reincarnation. Magpies are considered evil in largely superstitious folklore. They are believed … Continue reading

Nobody home. Off to chase butterflies and talk to plants :)
Strange things are afoot. A couple of years ago, I watched a documentary about an American shaman in Peru, Souther Hamilton, ayahuasca and his Blue Morpho retreat centre. It must still be somewhere on Youtube. Their ceremonies looked profound. More … Continue reading

Let Go, Let In, Let Be
Ciara Sherlock read this poem that she wrote during the ritual we did at the retreat. The last line sounds like a mantra. Nomads of consciousness – enjoy. You are here, now, Nothing to achieve, nowhere to go, The tie … Continue reading

Loner Wolf – Shadow Work Journal
I have been writing offline a lot lately, partially because I am working through the Loner Wolf’s Shadow Work Journal. I highly recommend it. It’s a compilation of exercises that help you uncover your dark side. Shadow work seems to be … Continue reading

Source: Tatler magazine, Jo Bowlby with a shaman in Peru. It’s almost been a year since I went through a shamanic ritual (I wrote about it here). I still have a one pager where I hungrily have scribbled down key … Continue reading
Quote of the week #happiness
I watched ‘The Last Shaman’ on Netflix last night and I loved this quote. Stop looking for love elsewhere (in material riches, in other people) – find it in yourself first.
