A revolutionary way for healing Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, a condition that many psychologists are struggling to manage.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, most known as PTSD is a hard reality that many people struggle with nowadays and for many psychologists it is notoriously difficult to treat.
That’s why a large number of affected are now in the search of alternative options and traveling to Ayahuasca Retreat in Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, and Colombia to drink this famous brew that according to scientific research is a promising new approach for the cure of PTSD.
Understanding the Struggle.
Dealing with this condition caused by experiencing a traumatic event and/or abuse is certainly not easy and they might be continuously dealing with intense, disturbing thoughts and feelings related to that traumatic experience that lasts long after the harsh event has ended. This can occur in all people regardless of ethnicity, nationality or culture, and any age.
A traditional way of looking for help is by attending to psychotherapy, but generally, the problem is that even after, PTSD often remains as a chronic illness with concurrent episodes. This causes the patient to feel a constant sense of disconnection from others, from one’s surroundings and the authentic self. Therefore it might lead to a numb nervous system that cannot connect properly with sensations and emotions which often is accompanied by depression.
Ayahuasca Ceremony as the Solution
A promising new approach involves the use of Ayahuasca, a Psychedelic plant of the Amazon Jungle of South America that its components of alkaloids and the psychoactive molecule DMT has the effect of promoting cell survival, neuroprotection, neuroplasticity, and neuroimmunomodulation which means a modulation of brain activity.
Ayahuasca ceremony is a transformative and sacred ritual that has been used for ages by the community of the Jungle to have a deep healing in the mental, physical and spiritual level, connecting with the spirit realm and awakening inner wisdom.
When drinking Ayahuasca, the person enters into an altered state of awareness underlined by introspection and visions. This, for the mental healing, allows the wake up of deep memories and emotions that were repressed, and it gives the chance to view the trauma from a third-person perspective allowing to access a deeper understanding which creates empathy towards the suffering that has been lived. This permits the release of those experiences with their accompanying emotions and rebalances the psyche, creating space for growth.
In the Physical area, one can experience vomiting, trembling, yawning, or sensations of heat or cold which brings awareness into the body to free what’s been long held inside.
Deep understandings that can take years in psychotherapy can likely emerge in a single ceremony, realizing that what happened to you is simply an experience, and is not who you are. This embodiment lies at the very chore of trauma healing.
Healing and Integration in Ayahuasca Retreat
As it is not likely that the total healing will occur in a single ceremony, I highly recommend attending to reputable Ayahuasca Retreats with comprehensive support and sequenced ceremonies for an intimate and successful experience, followed by integration work that is necessary for completion.
