KAMBO PRACTITIONER COLLECTIVE
I am proud to be a founding member of the KAMBO PRACTITIONER COLLECTIVE, a global collective of like-minded, like-hearted, eco-conscious practitioners,
consciously stewarding the medicine, maintaining right relations and building community accountability.

My practice is guided by the KPC ethos:
​
Harm to none. Benefit to all.
Safety. Integrity. Honesty.
Authenticity. Originality.
Truthfulness. Trustworthiness.
Responsibility. Reputability. Reliability.
Groundedness. Humility.
Non-dogmatism.
Right Relations. Reciprocity. Respect.
Personal Experience.
High-Level Education.​​​
BARIXÁ
Along with devastating consequences of colonialism, Indigenous communities in the Amazon face many difficulties - deforestation, illegal logging and mining, water contamination, disease, poverty, displacement...
​
Sacred Amazonian practices and medicines are rapidly growing in the west, which threatens not only the sustainability or plants and animals, but also their ancestral heritage and sovereignty. MANY western practitioners are colonising this knowledge, exploiting indigenous labour and making lots of money on the back of their hard work.
Barixá (baa - ree - shah) is a cultural hub and organisation founded by Kawá Huni Kuin, Dr Verónica Castro and myself, with an aim of supporting and amplifying Indigenous wisdom and culture of the Huni Kuin people in Brazilian rainforest.
Our work primarily includes fundraising, ceremonies, circles, courses and retreats.
We work directly with Indigenous artisans (particularly women) to empower their independence by selling their arts, crafts and medicines like Hapé and Sananga.
