Frequently Asked Questions about Ayahuasca Medicine Work…

"Forest Path gracefully integrates indigenous traditions with world-class musical presence and attentive quality-of-space. I have had the privilege to sit with Jaya and Hayley a number of times, and now consider their offerings as something to plan my yearly rhythms around. Amongst today’s proliferation of medicine offerings, Forest Path ceremonies are deeply grounded in the practice of a contemplative life."
