Tachi Jaya
I am honored to offer my services as a guide for those called to explore consciousness. Decades of study and training in entheogenic ceremony, depth psychology and Eastern spiritual traditions have led me to a holistic approach that integrates initiatory work with plants with somatic practices that nurture connections between body, soul, community, nature and spirit.
I have been a practitioner in the Santo Daime—a syncretic tradition from the Brazilian Amazon—since 1999, and a lead musician in thousands of ceremonies. I am a yoga instructor and spiritual counselor, centering my offerings in a network of accountability to my elders in shamanic traditions and mentors in integral therapies.
My life mission is to cultivate inclusive sanctuaries for the recovery of soul— sacred circles that support people to reclaim their innate capacity for intimate belonging, deep connection, and embodied joy. All I do and all I share is rooted in my reverance for the wild.
