Summary
Western medicine has not been particularly successful at getting people relief from conditions like depression, chronic pain, migraine headaches, addiction, and PTSD. Dr. Tafur helps us to understand why.
I have watched people spend years in frustration and thousands of dollars consulting an army of specialists, without getting real relief from their problem. Because these and others are diseases deeply connected with the state of our emotional bodies. Too often, the Western medical approach fails to address the emotional dimension of illness. This is where traditional plant medicines, with their ability to alter consciousness and open channels of communication to our emotions, offer so much promise.
The stories shared here demonstrate the astonishing - mystical, colorful, metaphysical - effects of ayahuasca and traditional Amazonian plant medicine. Follow Dr. Tafur through the Amazon jungle as he develops a breakthrough understanding of how psychoactive plants interact with the complex network that connects our minds and hearts to our physical anatomy. What Dr. Tafur presents here is nothing short of a paradigm shift for modern medicine, where sacred plants, used properly in ceremony, take their place as important tools in the doctor’s medicine chest, offering the missing elements of emotional and spiritual healing that have eluded us for so long.

Easy & fascinating listen
Being very interested & studying this work of the effects of psychedelics on mental, emotional, spiritual & physical health I found this to be a captivating & absorbing book. The stories are interesting & relevant. Joe Tafur’s journey in & of itself is engaging. I am so delighted that more & more medically trained Drs are looking outside of the mainstream allopathic world. Thank you Joe 🙏🏼❤️

Very informative
Really interesting book. As I have lost faith in the medicall model of recovery used today. Maybe a bit too medical sometimes but a lot of evidence of the powerful healing abilities of Mother Aya. This book opened my eyes to the depths one can go & level of integration required afterwards. Beautifully written, incorporating real experiences & tracking recovery & breakthroughs afterwards. I would recommend if you are thinking about taking Ayahuasca.

Great introduction to Amazonian Shamanism
Loved this book! I found it insightful, deep and at the same time entertaining. I was very inspired by Dr Tafurs integration of western science with the depth of knowledge and experience with shamanism. A beautiful introduction to the medicine of the jungle, with clear explanations on how it works.
