Hola! I am Ixchel
I’m a mother, dancer, musician, ceremonialist, spiritual midwife, mentor, community builder, permaculturist and eternal optimist who is passionate about human potential.
I am dedicating my life to the liberation of all beings, to the remembrance of our divinity, to the embodiment of our full potential.
Of course this starts with myself so I am right here with you on this continual journey of shedding the ego and remembrance of who we truly are.
Creating immersive experiences of devotion & liberation is my greatest joy!
I love weaving together my passions and the practices that are my pillars - nature immersion, yoga, breathwork, sound healing, singing circles, dance, sweat lodge, authentic relating, shamanic and cacao ceremonies, satsang & sharing circles. In 2012 the portal of music opened up for me and I started playing guitar and receiving songs
My journey with psychedelics began 32 years ago at the age of 14 setting me on the path of self realization. In 2004 I experienced the most profound homecoming in my first ceremony with Ayahuasca and realized that what I was seeking was within me. I got to connect with the part of myself beyond name, beyond time and space that has always been and will always be - free of the ego that was identified with any of my triumphs or failures.
For the past 20 years Ayahuasca and Huachuma have been my greatest teachers in helping me to be a better human. I have received so much from these master plants that for the past 10 years I have been in full service to sharing their gifts around the world in ceremonial retreats. I am dedicated to keeping indigenous culture and wisdom alive and am forever a humble student of the ancient ways.
I am the mother of a passionate 18 year old artist who has been raised with inspiration by a village in the community I co-founded with his dad 18 years ago.
These days I have my hands in the earth in Costa Rica. I am currently creating Yacumama an eco village, food & medicine forest and community center for transformational experiences in the south Pacific side of Costa Rica.
I bring the energy of the divine mother with fierce unconditional love, radical presence & authenticity to hold you through anything that arises
I look forward to connecting with you!
