Episode 65
Listen in as Michaela Carlin welcomes Jemma Gawned, a medicine woman initiated into the sacred ancestral healing path of the Andes, as she shares about the transformational power of shamanic medicines such as ayahuasca, huachuma and cacao, emphasizing the critical role of a mindful, heart-centered approach in ceremonial facilitation. Jemma also delves into the process of soul retrieval, where fragments of one's soul, displaced due to trauma, are called back, and how this healing process can lead to an affirmation of identity and increased vitality.
Jemma's commitment to awakening individual truths and her unique perspective on connecting with nature and ancient cultures underline the importance as well as implications of increasing accessibility to shamanic healing practices. Be sure to listen to the whole episode so that you don’t miss Jemma guiding listeners to cleanse energy, heal ancestral imprints, acknowledge their inner child's needs, and recall soul fragments as part of a liberating and healing mini-session.
Jemmita Gawned walks a Sacred Shamanic Path as Medicine Woman, Healer and Ceremonialist offering deep transformational work globally. Initiated into the Sacred Ancestral Medicines by her Maestros in the Andes and adopted into their lineage in 2012, she is deeply honored to share the profound Medicine and teachings of the Andes Cosmovision, woven in with well over 20 years of wisdom and experience from walking her own Spiritual path of Awakening.
Her path of service through ‘Anchoring the Light’ is to guide and empower others to remember their own true divine nature, power and innate Magic. Weaving Ancient Ritual and Ceremony with Wisdom for the Path to Awakening - offering tools and modalities to heal, empower, liberate and transform.
Through her online Ceremonial work and trainings such as the 3 month Wilka Suyu Shamanic Cacao Ceremonialist Apprenticeship and the 12 month Hampiq Ńust’a apprenticeship - the Path of the Modern Medicine Woman, taught alongside her Andean Maestro Puma Fredi Quispe Singona, Jemmita is now able to reach many more of our Global Family, building a much needed sense of community and camaraderie as we move collectively through this profound time of transformation as one family.
Her in person programs, including yearly Pilgrimages to the Andes Peru, and the Global Reset and Rise Retreats and Ceremonies are designed to take you deep into Remembering your Divinity.
In respectfully and generously sharing her wisdom through Ceremony and Mentorship, her wish is to assist others to become creators of their own reality and transform their own lives, in the way it has profoundly transformed her own.
