My name is Ben and I have been living in Amsterdam for the last three years now. Before this time, I was traveling the world to find an open-minded country like the Netherlands. Even longer I studied, worked with plants and eventually ended in my Phd. Furthermore, I started cognitive Neuroscience to study the astonishing influence of Ayahuasca and human cognition. Ever since this topic motivates me every morning and I’m more than happy to share my knowledge and help other people with there Journey.
The work with plant medicine is a deeply personal journey and I can only encourage everyone interested in a ceremony to do some research about the guide. A trustful connection and environment will open you a completely different experience. Don’t expect the so-called and wished `pill for every pain.` YOU are the leader of your own life, take your time, think about your intent, find a good guide and nature will help you to become your best self.
Approach
I’m totally convinced that our modern western lives have become very loud and overwhelming, often locking our inner selves out in favor of busy schedules and appointments. It’s this disconnection that leaves people feeling lost and unhappy with their lives. This is where plant therapy comes in. Ayahuasca can help re-establish this connection and provide clear guidance into your deepest wants and needs. It can show you your true self and help you understand the way you feel about certain things. It’s by no means a perfect solution, but it can be a very valuable tool in your own personal journey towards fulfillment and enlightenment.
My education allows me to find a bridge between ancient plant medicine and new knowledge about the brain and psyche. In my past, I studied different topics, and I gained in-depth knowledge about coaching. Already before the start of the ceremony, I will send you help and guidance for the ceremony. Every person has unique issues to solve, and together with the plants, we can highlight them so that you create the best yourself.
My work is focussed on people who want to understand themself deeply. Finding their personality and create the life they dream of, motivated, focused, but always open to help others with a smile in their face.
Preparation
After we set an appointment, you will get detailed information about every important step. First of all, you will start with a mental and physical diet, at least two weeks in advance. The next step will be the ceremony or which ceremony suits the best for you. My recommendation in general, you should take the week before easy and not rushed. For the ceremony-day, take the whole day off, the experience can take up to 6-8h. Also, the next day will be full of insights, so take it easy and if you not already own, buy a nice diary and write the experience down.
