Some journeys end by bringing us home differently. 🌿
These months with Pajé Aktxawã, Joôpek and the Pataxó people were never only about ceremony. They became a study of land, ancestry, relationship and soul.
We walked the Irish land together — its mountains, waters, stones, ancestors and enchanted beings. And as we listened to the land, we were also asked to listen to ourselves.
Perhaps this was the deeper study: learning to hold beauty and grief, belonging and separation, love and fear without collapsing into certainty.
The land becomes a mirror.
At the heart of this journey is the partnership between Sacred Nawe and the Pataxó people, and the friendship and path we continue to walk with Pajé Aktxawã and Joôpek.
Our mission goes beyond ceremonies. It is about creating foundations for sacred work — approaching the medicines with integrity while reconnecting with Mother Nature, ancestry, community and oneself.
Medicine may open the door. We still have to learn how to walk through it.
Deep gratitude to Mana and Everton, and to our collaborators Phoenix Healing and Dani, for helping us carry this work with integrity.
And to our community — Wayne, Daryl, Anthony, Paul McAllister, Louise, MaryRose, Sarah, Ash, Anthony Peter, Mauriuz, Ciaran and Andrea — thank you for your hands, hearts and presence. ♥️
Above all, gratitude to Pajé Aktxawã, Joôpek and the Pataxó people for the trust, friendship, teachings, prayers, songs and medicine.
We came to study the land.
Perhaps the land was studying us too.
Something has ended. Something has been planted. Something is still becoming.
The path continues. 🇧🇷🌿
