Traditional Andean-Amazonian Medicine, is primarily focused on the body´s energetic system, placing an emphasis on the various energy channels that circulate around the body. These channels, have important points in the energy circuits, that match exactly the chakras of the eastern traditions.

It believes, that the body retains memories, and that certain life situations can generate blocks fragmenting the person’s relationship with their physical body, with their emotions, with other people, and with their spirit. When the body’s energy channels are blocked, it generates the origin of disease.

The medicinal ayahuasca ceremony is a very ancient healing technique that has a complete protocol of action, with its stages, specific techniques and well-defined uses.

The objective of the ayahuasca ceremony is to remove energy blockages that hinder normal functioning of the patient and reconnect the divided parts within themselves. This inner reconnection of the person, also manifests itself in a rearrangement with the outer world.

We will focus on the description of the medicinal uses of ayahuasca.

First medicinal use of ayahuasca

The first medicinal use of ayahuasca is to diagnose the physical body.

When taking ayahuasca, the patient can clearly feel the areas of his body that are not working properly or have some kind of abnormality. The body recovers its voice and clearly indicates, both to the person who has taken it and the traditional doctor or shaman who conducts the ceremony, the affected areas. With a series of certain techniques, you can look inside those areas to define the exact situation of illness and get a very precise diagnosis for it, and from there decide what type of treatment can be better. Many times, it is also possible to see the emotional origin of it, the trauma or the situation that generated it.

Second medicinal use of ayahuasca

The second medicinal use of the ayahuasca ceremony works on the emotional health by opening the memories recorded in the body. This enables the person to visualize the armors that are blocking them as a result of situations lived throughout their life that made them suffer. These armors are usually generated in the very early stages, generally in the first years of the childhood and locate themselves in certain areas of the body, according to the emotion it is associated with. These being fear, anger, guilt or sadness. It is common for these emotions to somatized in the body and form layers that need to be gradually cleaned and unblocked. What is important is to realize that ayahuasca always access´ first the material that is of priority to work with at all times.

Third medicinal use of ayahuasca

The third medicinal use is for situational, circumstantial or incidental topics. Traditionally when a person is going through times of change, they resort to this medicine to access the source of internal resources, and from that clarity be able to make decisions on new directions. For example, you can use this medicine before deciding which profession you want to study, before emigrating, before going to live with a partner, before a separation to see if something can be done to save the relationship, before starting a business or closing it, before starting a partnership with someone, etc. It is used so that the person sees within themselves clearly what they really want, and this inner clarity helps in decision making.

Situational health works over incidents or traumatic situations, such as a disappointment, or the death of a loved one, a car accident, an assault or kidnapping, an earthquake that shakes the life of the person, loss of loved ones, an avalanche or a hurricane. Sometimes, these traumatic external situations invade and parasite the internal world. In these cases, the medicinal principle is the same, to unblock these parasitic nuclei and reconnect the person with themselves.

Fourth medicinal use of ayahuasca

The fourth medicinal use is spiritual health. For ancestral medicine, the human being is of spiritual nature. Within us, as in nature, there is a source of energy that we can live from. Not only from the appearance of things but from the essence. In this case, what is sought is that the person is in a harmonious relationship with themselves, with their ancestors, with their descendants, with the spirits of nature, with their higher self and recognize themselves as the magical animal that they are.

When a person loses his spiritual nature, diseases caused by a sense of absence arise. For example, addictions. The use of this medicine for the treatment of addictions is very effective.
What is sought is that the person recovers their cultural and spiritual identity, their traditions and lineages, and discovers the powerful energy source that is behind these contents. It involves reconnecting the person to their past, not only since birth but also with their ancestors, as well as creating responsibility towards their future generations. From this point of view, there is a culture of tolerance and respect for other traditions.

Spiritual work involves going beyond the differences and more into the essence.
In order to work at all these levels, the traditional doctor must know how to use and manage the many energies of nature to unblock, extract the parasitic contents at the energy level, align, reconnect, and ultimately, heal the person attending the ceremony.
