Our Sacraments
Psilocybin Mushrooms (Niños Santos)
Niños Santos, meaning “Holy Children” in indigenous tradition, have long been revered as sacred teachers—guiding individuals through deep healing, expanded awareness, and profound transformation.
Like Bufo, sacred mushrooms help dissolve the walls of the ego, softening the conditioning we’ve carried from family systems, ancestral lines, relationships, and culture. They open the door to seeing ourselves, others, and the world with new clarity and compassion. Through this, we are able to tap into Bodhichitta—the soft spot of the heart, our true nature.

The Ceremony & Experience
- Method of Ingestion: Bufo is inhaled using the titration method, meaning this is not a sudden “blast off” experience. Instead, we ease individuals into the space, allowing for gradual acclimation and a deeper connection with the medicine.
- Dosage & Guidance: Some people feel complete after one dose, while others feel called to more. We work with you to determine what is best for you, ensuring your safety, comfort, and readiness throughout the process.

- Experience non-duality, connection with the Divine and all that is
- Identification and disconnection of the ego as the principle player of one’s reality
- Deepening self-awareness & personal growth
- Releasing attachments, fears, and emotional burdens
- Healing and strengthening relationships
- Clarifying life purpose
- Releasing stored energy and trauma from the body, mind, and spirit
Bufo is a sacred, deeply personal journey, offering an opportunity for healing, awakening, and transformation.
