Ep. 17 - Carlos Tanner - Plant Medicine, Education, and Research
Episode 17
Hey everybody! Episode 17 of the show is out. In this show, I spoke with Carlos Tanner. Carlos is the founder and director of the Ayahuasca Foundation, one of the leading ayahuasca retreat, education, and research centers located in Iquitos, Peru. I really enjoyed this conversation. It’s always good to speak to someone who has a depth of knowledge that comes from years of experience working in this field. I think you all will get a lot out of this episode as Carlos really expressed lucidly and beautifully this work on many different levels. Enjoy! And starting next episode I will begin releasing extended interviews of most of the episodes exclusively on Patreon, so check out more on that below.
“Carlos Tanner is the director of the Ayahuasca Foundation, where he organizes healing retreats, educational courses, and plant medicine research led by Shipibo curanderos in the rainforest of Peru. His journey with ayahuasca began in 2003 with his own profound healing experience, leading him to move to Iquitos, Peru in 2004 to live and apprentice with a curandero named don Juan. Four years later he came up with the idea for the Ayahuasca Foundation, which has helped over a thousand retreat participants as well as over five hundred students of the Shipibo healing tradition. Along the way he got married, had a child, and built a research center that hosts ayahuasca medical research. He supports the decriminalization of plant medicines on a global scale and looks forward to a new era of medicine that centers around a consciousness based understanding of health.”
