Hi--Hola, I'm (Aya) Maria, here's my story
I've had a relationship with this master plant for most of my life, going on eighteen years now. This relationship has taught me about the dynamics (physiology) of my body and psyche, and has supported me in realizing the best version of myself. For the past seven years, my husband, family, and I have been consciously cultivating it and crafting medicine, for my suegra's medical practice, where she serves people with advanced illnesses. I have also guided and supported over 70 women and families through the menstrual, gestational, birth, and postpartum phases to consume it consciously—beyond smoking, without activating its psychoactive properties, while still receiving all the benefits. I can't wait to share this space again, for the benefit of both you and the plants.
