Sanctuary

Sanctuary Is a community hub, inspired through the unique resonance of plant medicines, earth based shamanic wisdom traditions and Christ as a living consciousness.

A space to stay connected to your spiritual path, and continue your healing and transformation long after the ceremony is over.

This community sees plant medicines as portals to greater consciousness and as emissaries of planetary change.

These gatherings will weave together shamanic transmissions, ritual practices, and plant medicine teachings that will help you tap into the guidance and resourcing needed to make real life decisions around your family, friendships, romantic life and finances.

In our view, everything is interconnected. So when we are tapped into our higher wisdom, we naturally know what the next right step is, or at least we can meet the hard seasons of life with a little more grace and tenderness.

This is open to anyone looking to deepen in their relationship with the Divine and also honour plant medicines as portals into divinity.

Each New Moon, we will come together in prayer, song, and ceremony to reset the mind, body, and spirit.

This container offers you a regular touchstone in your busy every day life to help you stay on track, steady, regulated, and spiritually strong.

Athena, born in Greece and enriched by her diverse heritage as a South African-Venezuelan, is a profoundly skilled and authentic teacher of plant medicine. With over 18 years of experience in indigenous ceremonial practices from both North and South America, her formal apprenticeship was with the Shipibo Mahua lineage in the Peruvian Amazon.

Athena channels a cosmic grandmother in her ceremonies, offering an incredibly potent yet gentle transmission of the plant spirits, and the divine mother. Her ceremonies are incredibly safe, nurturing, unique in their authenticity, and infused with many lineages of divine support—an experience that remains rare in the realm of plant medicine work.

Jason, an energy healer and shamanic herbalist, embodies the spirit of plants with his rooted and lifelong connection to the plant world. Since 2010, he's worked extensively with ayahuasca, cultivating and preparing it in Hawaii on his family’s property. Specializing in tailor-made shamanic medicines, he addresses emotional, physical, and spiritual needs, aiming to deepen individuals' connection to the Earth. Known for his incredible humor, heyoka spirit, and nurturing presence in ceremony, Jason strengthens the container, by holding the masculine while allowing the feminine to lead. A gifted curandero, and devotee to plant wisdom.

When are the live calls?
Our community gathers on each New Moon, approximately every 28 days. You’ll join us for a 1.5 to 2-hour live call once a month, on the new moon. You’ll receive a full year’s schedule and email reminders before each circle.

Occasionally we will adjust the zoom call to be a day before or after the New Moon to accomodate Athena's retreat schedule.
