This Medicine is Safe and Legal to use by trained practitioners.

Please note these recommendations are purely advice from my own experience in working with this medicine and those who have taught me. Should you want to venture into the experience of this medicine you should always without exception consult an experienced practitioner in your area, or contact me to arrange a circle. Please do not administer this medicine to yourself or anyone else without extensive training and tutorship of shaman / teacher.

I would like to begin with the fundamental principle or question: ask yourself the need behind the desire to experience Kambo. This deep introspection into the nature of well-being is best sourced from intention. This is the fundamental key to our own healing and conscious awareness.

Secondly, your ability to surrender, feel safe and let go of control is vital in allowing this medicine to work at its deepest levels within you and in the context of releasing that which no longer serves you. It is up to you to let go of the mental and emotional levels to maximise the synergistic effect. Once you decide and are committed to your own transformation, you can then consider the more practical needs of attending a ceremony or one-to-one session with a practitioner. 
 
​Please be honest with your administer / practitioner. By making a full disclosure of any medications or serious medical conditions that you may have, you protect both yourself and the practitioner. Please take the time to share and to let the practitioner know of your special needs prior to the ceremony.

Diet Preparation - Day before and on the day

• Set your intentions.
• Make sure you do not have anything to eat for a minimum of 10 hours before taking Kambo. 
• You are permitted to drink water during the 10-hour fast but not excessively. 
• You cannot consume alcohol or drug substances for 24hrs before or after the ceremony. 
• 1.5 to 2 litres of fresh room temperature spring water / non alkaline that includes no use of lemons or limes in your water. This water will be sipped on the morning of and right before the application of the medicine.
• I recommend the day before eating light / fresh steamed veggies, soups, fruits, quinoa, fish or chicken. Try and avoid a lot of sugar, heavy starches, or really fatty foods if possible.
•  NO COLONICS, ENEMAS, LIVER FLUSHES, OR WATER FASTING* WITHIN 3 DAYS (BEFORE AND AFTER) OF TAKING KAMBO. 

*With the exception of the 10-12 hours you will fast, drinking only water, before your Kambo treatment.

• During the ceremony: Meditating with the breath is the best preparation for a Kambo ceremony. Breathe in and invite the spirit of the medicine into you, exhale and surrender your ego, your weight, your toxicity. Breathe in and soften to the medicine, breathe out and let go.

• Allow yourself 2 to 3 hours for treatment and recovery, ideally having the rest of the day off from work or stressful obligations.
• You should wear comfortable clothing and in layers so it is easy to apply the medicine and due to changes in temperatures of your body during the course of the experience (and a change of clothing in case yours gets soiled during treatment).

• A pad, pillow, or bolster to rest on to insure relaxation.
• A blanket in case you want to rest or lie down after the session is done. 
• A contact lens case with solution added (if you choose to receive Sananga eye drops and wear contact lenses).

• A roll of toilet paper or a box of tissues will be a necessity in this experience.
• A hair tie or headband for people with long hair. 
• Menstruating women will need to be aware that their flow will increase for up to 3 days after taking Kambo medicine.
• Some light snacks of your choice for the completion of the ceremony: fresh fruit, probiotics (sauerkraut) to restore good bacteria, coconut water to restore electrolytes and soup would be recommended after Kambo.
