ABOUT THE FACILITATORS
Introducing SacredVine Church, a sanctuary dedicated to facilitating healing and transformative journeys through the spiritual exploration of Amazonian plant medicine, ayahuasca. At SacredVine Church, we prioritize the well-being and safety of our community, creating a nurturing environment upheld by a team of seasoned guides and facilitators who embody our core principles of integrity, compassion, and respect. Our commitment to high standards of care and professionalism ensures that each individual’s journey is both profound and safe.
SacredVine Church embraces indigenous traditions by incorporating ancestry ceremonies into its practices. These ceremonies honor and connect individuals with their cultural heritage, emphasizing the importance of traditions and the role of ancestors within the community. Through these authentic experiences, we invite you to uncover the wisdom and healing potential within our sacred sacrament, ayahuasca.
Facilitating these profound journeys is Silvania De Brito, a plant medicine facilitator and Hape practitioner with deep roots in the Brazilian jungle. Her lineage of indigenous spiritual healers and empaths has shaped her connection to plant medicine from before birth, marking her as a chosen continuance of her ancestors' path. Silvania’s life journey brought her from the jungle to the bustling world of professional dance and performance in the United States. Despite her success, she felt a calling to reconnect with her roots and embrace her grandmother's teachings. Today, Silvania focuses on uniting women on paths of reconnection, healing, and transformation, offering guidance through love, light, and uplifting energy.
Joining Silvania is Ixa Txana Huni Kuin, a prominent young leader of the Huni Kuin people, whose work is dedicated to preserving and promoting the cultural heritage of his ancestors. For over six years, Ixa has been an active participant in ceremonies that weave ancestral chants with spiritual practices, traveling across Brazil and the USA to share these rich traditions. His unique musical talents, developed from a young age, add a vibrant layer to his ceremonial work, fostering harmony and joy within the community.
Ixa is also devoted to the development of the Mae Kapa Yuxibu Center, envisioning it as a hub for healing and cultural exchange where people can share experiences and learn collectively. Through his passionate leadership and commitment to cultural preservation, Ixa embodies the spirit of collaboration and shared strength, essential for realizing this vision.
Together, Silvania and Ixa represent the heart and soul of SacredVine Church, guiding individuals on transformative journeys, rooted in a deep respect for cultural heritage and an unwavering commitment to healing.

As you embark on your ayahuasca retreat, you have the unique opportunity to enhance your healing journey with a private session with our experienced shaman. This optional, personalized experience is crafted to deepen your spiritual exploration and provide tailored support to meet your individual needs.
During the session, you will receive one-on-one guidance, allowing the shaman to address specific areas of your life where healing is needed. Participants can expect a blend of spiritual insights and traditional healing practices, all designed to promote profound personal growth and transformation. Whether you're seeking clarity, emotional release, or a deeper connection with your inner self, this private session offers a safe and nurturing space to explore and heal.

At the conclusion of your transformative ayahuasca retreat, you have the unique opportunity to partake in a Kambo ceremony—an optional experience designed to cleanse and rejuvenate your body and spirit. Kambo is a traditional Amazonian ritual that utilizes the secretion of the Phyllomedusa bicolor frog. This sacred ceremony is known for its purifying effects, aiding in the release of physical toxins and emotional blockages.
During the ceremony, a small number of superficial burns are made on the skin to apply the Kambo secretion. This process allows the peptides to enter your lymphatic system, often resulting in a deep detoxification experience. Participants may encounter short-lived physical reactions, which are viewed as a cleansing process leading to potential benefits such as heightened clarity, increased energy, and a strengthened immune system.
Guided by experienced practitioners, the Kambo ceremony is conducted in a supportive environment, ensuring your safety and comfort. This powerful ritual offers a unique opportunity to embark on a journey of healing and renewal, complementing the profound insights gained from your ayahuasca journey. Whether you seek enhanced well-being or a deeper connection with yourself, the Kambo ceremony invites you to embrace its transformative potential.
