This is an extraordinary life-changing tour guided by Peruvian Shaman Pierre Garreaud and Master Healer Janice Johnson. Pierre and Janice have been offering tours in the Andes for over 14 years. Pierre being Peruvian has incredible insights regarding the building of the sacred sights, portals, leylines, power spots, and how to work with them.
You will be treated to a new and old world where sacredness and spirituality are part of the daily expression of the Andean culture. You will receive many energy transmissions and activations that will help you expand your consciousness. During our pilgrimage to the sacred sites, you will receive vibrational tones and energy, Inca Karpay spiritual seeds, which will result in you being able to move bigger quotients of Source energy through your body template to help you become the best version of yourself. With each sacred site, we will work with opening, clearing, and expanding a particular chakra.
The openings during our tours are very powerful, prepare yourself to have a Kundalini expansion, expand your third eye's inner vision, and meet your inner self. Janice and Pierre will be sharing sacred space with renowned shamans they have been working for over 20 years.
Prepare to go within, reconnect with the Sacred, awaken yourself to new inner landscapes and bring more and more light to our Mother Earth. You are a key participant on this Consciousness Shift occurring now.
