By: Javier Regueiro

Narrated by: Javier Regueiro

More and more people from all walks of life and spiritual and religious backgrounds feel drawn to ayahuasca in often surprising ways. In this revised and expanded edition of Ayahuasca: Soul Medicine of the Amazon Jungle, author Javier Regueiro offers a guide for those new to the use of this powerful medicine that originates in the Amazon rainforest.

Javier Regueiro not only provides general information about ayahuasca, but he bridges the cultural gap between the native and the current use of ayahuasca by Westerners. This guide offers background about the plant medicine, its history, and how to engage with and learn through its use.

Addressed to the ever-increasing number of people who approach this medicine for their own personal healing and development, this guidebook provides clear and practical advice on how to use this therapeutic modality in a fashion that is meaningful to modern people for a maximum of benefit.

my ceremony prep

I bought this ahead of heading to Peru for Shamonic Detox which included several ayahuasca ceremonies
worth every penny and every second spent. Really helped me prep and set expectations. Also opened my eye to possibilities of dark shamans and what to look for in a retreat. I listen to it again after my ceremonies and found the descriptions of the experience so well written, even if it could only be fully appreciated after taking the journey.

amazing book

I wish I would have listened to this book years ago when I first started working with ayahuasca. it's the perfect pre and post ceremony book. Also utterly inciteful about the healing process. great book for healers as well, gives greatcreninders about the process of healing and working with clients. a must read (listen)

This is no dread locked hippy gringo.

someone said hs voice was to monotone. I would describe it as calm. and if you simply bump the speed up to 1.2 it does flow better because he is very mellow and slow speaking. I listen before 2 sessions. my experience was horrible. everyone else seemed pleased but the second night I felt like I was a rope in a tug of war. My diaphragm slammed up an down while vomiting so fast and hard I wasn't inhaling air. so imagine vomiting without inhaling air in between. There was no care bears on rainbows. I'm just putting my experience out there because very few report this experience.

Worth it

If you can get past the authors accent heavy monotone croon, there’s lots of important info, especially for first timers. A few times I had to rewind because his voice lulled me into thinking of other things, but the content here makes the book indispensable. Highly recommended.

Perfect book for Ayahuasca ceremony preparation

A fantastic overview and starter guide to anyone interested in taking part in an Ayahuasca ceremony.
