Sketchbook 3/18-3/19 was another exploration of my second ceremony. I turned the butterfly upside down to better mimic the shape of the lungs and drew some sketches of my ceremony experience (see previous Instagram post for explanation) #healing #butterflysnake #ayahuascaexperience #snake #butterfly #sketchbook

3/18/17 sketchbook entry came to me the morning after my second ayahuasca ceremony. The day before the ceremony butterflies filled my jungle hut and one landed on me and hung or for a while. It was a magical mystery. That night In the ceremony I had a hard time breathing. I have always had asthma and, stupidly, have been an on-off smoker for almost 18 years (quitting again for the Who-knows-how-many-ith time, before leaving for Peru). In ceremony I saw my lungs as butterflies and then felt snakes coming up and out of my throat. I spat and hissed into my puke bucket as my lungs expelled them. I heard the plants I'd been dieting on ask me to make an agreement to never smoke again. I agreed. After that I could breath. It has become very clear that the butterfly and the snake are major totem spirit animals of mine. 🦋 🐍 #begoodtoyourbody #learning #spiritanimals #wecanhealourselves #sketchbook #butterfly #snake #butterflysnake #ayahuascaexperience #color
