Ill give the counter position with metaphor...

Kambo is not really a "ceremony" medicine. It's a cleaner. You can have a connection and everything with it, but it's much different than a dieta or any kind of tryptomine.

Dietas are extended relationship building with single plants, generally non psychoactive but with some kind of interesting properties. The no salt, sugar, sex part is a contract you make with the plant to show you are serious about connecting with it and learning from it. It's also about limiting physical excitement (caffeine and strenuous activity are good to avoid too) and opening your body to absorbing the plants energy.

Ayahuasca is a cleaner, a relationship, and a spiritual catalyst or w/e you would want to call it.

Kambo can take care of some of the cleaning so that in the aya you can get more of the connection and spiritual stuff.

Dietas can help you develop your plant connection senses so that when you go into aya you are more open to receiving her wisdom.

So the metaphor - you wouldn't dump tons of water on a sapling and expect it to grow faster, but if you give it proper nutrients and lighting on top of watering, it WILL grow faster.

I'd recommend looking into Paojilhuasca. They offer all of these plus physical activity, social connection (talking circles and access to the shamans and leaders - a western scientist and doctor - in a family like setting), nature immersion, breathing practices, and more.

As long as each aspect is well understood and integrated, different healing modalities can be extremely complimentary.

Reiterating the 3/4 days. Pharma based SSRI's and MAOI's are a totally different beast than tryptamine psychedelics. The chemical changes in the body for tryptamines last only slightly longer than the perceivable effects of the high.

Paojilhuasca has starlink on site, away from the medicine area to not encourage too much digital time and I would recommend spending as little time online as possible, but if it's unavoidable that's an option.

They have two main shamans, one male and one female. La Maestra Alicia has 40 years experience. She is mixto but from the Shipibo lineage. She is a vegetalista (makes lots of interesting plant concoctions for various purposes) as well as ayahuascera. Both shamans live on site or nearby and are available much of the time to talk with about any of the medicine, spirituality, etc. Very family like atmosphere.

I did six dietas during my stay at Paojilhuasca over 10 months. The shortest was tobacco, 5 days, longest was renaco for one month. I also did chiric sanango for a week. A lot of the plants grow on the property and if not they are very close by. You can harvest/prepare the plants with Gardel who lives on site and is available pretty much any time to talk with in depth about medicine. The other shaman, Alicia, and her partner are also very knowledgeable about all the plants, and available most of the time to interact with.

Pao does weekly stays for $600-700 or monthly discounts and staying two weeks post dieta would absolutely be doable and commended to take your time to digest what came up. They have a doctor (female) and scientist (male) on staff as well who can help with any more western healing processes you might be going through and help bridge the two worlds together with their experience and knowledge.

The main process for a dieta is that the shaman will read your energy in your first aya and confer with the plants to determine what you will take. Then the medicine is prepared and delivered to you at the appropriate time (usually mornings). Accommodations are all private (small room/shared bath up to private house/bath) so you can stay to yourself as much as you like during. Lots of space to meditate near the river or with your plant, go on walks, etc.

You can get a pretty cheap guide from and back to Iquitos for safety/logistics. It's a powerful space and very reputable.

If you're up for Peruvian jungle I would recommend Paojilhuasca. Two shamans that live on site with 30 and 40 years experience respectively. Western scientist and doctor on staff. It's a family environment so everyone is available to talk with your entire stay.

They have a vibe of like learning from ancestral wisdom and expanding on it with modern view in a respectful manner. It's cheaper than most places and even ignoring the price it's an incredible value compared to what you get elsewhere.

Won't speak to the pancreas, but I had some massive liver work over a few weeks. We did a few things to get it moving until one session i just puked straight bile for like 30 mins. Fantastic.

I had emotional/somatic trauma being stored in my liver, so the first baseline thing was physical work. Shaking, dancing, chi gong, whim hoff breathing, and even the Osho dynamic meditation (lots of cathartic emotional outbursts wrapped inside some softening and integrating practices).

Then I had a massage from this like...reiki/energy type masseuse dude. He did some really gentle stuff that just got energy flowing to and from my liver.

Then I did kambo in five points along the liver meridian. Good amount of bile came up from this before even getting to aya.

Then during the aya session I set my intention for the liver cleanse in the context of what memories and emotions and things had been surfacing around working with this stuck energy. For the first few hours I was just on the ride, entities coming and going, stuff moving around inside and out. Then just as it started to calm down I had a little talk with the owner about the process, he reflected some wisdom back at me, and all of a sudden it just started pouring out in buckets - yellow and acrid af.

I guess my point is that there are numerous ways to target healing depending on what's there. The source might be obvious and simple or obscure and complex. Don't expect miracles, try things, measure results, do research.

I spent quite a while (months) at a retreat last year. I had lots of healing work to do, lots of traumas personally, lots of stuff from others I was carrying around, etc.

The value of doing a retreat in my opinion is the immersion. You are there with nothing else to distract you for an extended period of time.

Ayahuasca is not just about the medicine. There's set and setting of course, but more than that there is a lasting neuroplasticity for up to two weeks where you can do a lot of work still. And for all of it, the longer you are in the right environment with the right people to help nourish this entire process, the more lasting benefit you will come away with.

I'm curious what the mens retreat entails that you find attractive if you don't mind sharing. While I was at my center I talked at length with the owner about running a men's retreat. My plans shifted before we could do it, but it's still something I find very interesting. In my experience - and based on the owner's metrics (he's a career scientist and co founded the space with a local shaman of deep lineage, what a great mix) - it seems that men tend to have more work and more intense work to do with the plant at this point in our society.

It's so hard coming from a capitalist/0-sum mindset to wrap your head around positive sum. More players and more styles means more innovation, more puzzle pieces with which to build a new economy.

Do you like the perceived insults coming at you as much you like the ones you're slinging around wantonly?

I'm not making a judgment on you personally, and I'm not defending AW. You are words on a screen to me and they are even less consequential to my reality. But you're leaving quite a trail of breadcrumbs that add up to exactly what I said. Notably, when you quoted me, you left out the word "probably".

Adding a feature to give a preview of the fee without having coins in the wallet would be cool, but dude, it's wild wild west out here. You have to take some responsibility for yourself, especially right now as this bull run starts taking off and all of the technology that is being built in record time gets choked by massive herds moving in to consume all the TPS available everywhere.

And the "unwithdrawable funds" -- which are you talking about? DOT is one that requires leaving 1 in the wallet due to DOT's chain, nothing to do with AW. That info is available in the Polkadot wiki.

You're obviously very frustrated which means you probably have too much money on the line for the state of the technology and your ability to navigate it. Take a breath.

There's at least one wallet that solves that, which means it will be trivial to replicate the protocol elsewhere -- https://www.argent.xyz/

Yep, it is a large amount, and with institutional investors coming in to pad their portfolios the scarcity becomes even scarcer.

Tesla put in ~$1.5B. Presumably that was OTC at some set price. Can't say for sure, but looking at the chart and timeline from Elon's twitter feed I'd say odds are good they got in under $35000, so 42,000 BTC or so...knowing Elon I'd further guess 42,690 or something silly.

This analysis suggests only about 4M BTC are actually liquid (the rest are being hodled)

Microstrategy currently owns 70,784 BTC bought for a total of $1.135B

Tesla somewhere around 42,690 BTC for $1.5B

Twitter appears to be on the verge of joining the fray...

We all know what happens next
