Sinicuichi/Sun Opener (Heimia salicifolia) is to be used as a Shamanic Entheogen. When used within this context, this plant can invoke a deep sence of calmness and Unity.

  • To be used in a Ceremonial Setting.

Preparation

Heimia salicifolia leaves are soaked in water and left to ferment/brew in the Sun for 2 days, the water volume is then reduced, and the bitter tasting Elixir is ingested in one gulp.

"Psychedelic" literally means "Mind Manifest". So it depends on whats on your mind and what you are trying to accomplish in the Session/Ceremony. Lessons learned using psychedelics are completely subjective, so what you realize, some people might not even get close to.
