Carlos Tanner | Peruvian Curanderos, Tobacco, and The Soul of Ayahuasca

Carlos Tanner | Peruvian Curanderos, Tobacco, and The Soul of Ayahuasca

Carlos Tanner, Founder of The Ayahuasca Foundation joins me to discuss his journey from overcoming an opioid addiction, his journey through Peru, over The Andes, and into The Amazon. We discussed the traditional stories surrounding Ayahuasca, how it was used by the various tribes throughout the western amazon prior to The Spanish Conquest, and after the two cultures met. Carlos shared his knowledge of the metaphysical nature of Ayahuasca and its place in the collective consciousness, this gave way to a discussion about the recent trend or taste in the western English-speaking world for drinking Ayahuasca, a look at our role from a macrocosmic level and advice on how one should go about connecting with Ayahuasca. I also asked Carlos where he recommends people visit in Peru, the actual name of the Jivaro tribe, and what is up with the Shrunken Heads! This has been my favorite conversation in this realm to this date, Carlos is very brilliant and well versed, please discover more about him and ayahuasca here https://www.ayahuascafoundation.org/
