Caiyu is a modern-day medicine man and ceremonialist, who has been walking the path of sacred medicine for nearly 10 years now.

From his various offerings via his website and online community, MedicinePath.net, and also his new podcast Bird Song (which is absolutely incredible), Caiyu seeks to shed light on all things relating to Shamanism, nature based spirituality, storytelling, earth-honoring traditions, rites of passage, and a remembering of the sacred ways.

We met back in 2018 during a Huachuma ceremony in Cuzco, Peru, and it has been an honor to keep in touch with one another over the years.

In today’s episode, we discuss Caiyu’s personal transformation from living a wild life on tour as a drummer in Australia, to having what he describes as a lightning bolt experience which served as a catalyst for him to begin walking a sacred path of remembrance.

We discuss his initial travels down to South America, where he was first exposed to visionary plant medicines such as Ayahuasca and Huachuma, the importance that ceremony plays in his life, how to address the spiritual malnourishment we as a society are facing today, the power of Kambo, a profound frog medicine from the depths of the Amazon, the importance of initiation, elderhood, and so much more.

Everything we discussed in this episode is of deep interest to me and has played a large role in my life and also why I even started this podcast, so it was a real pleasure having Caiyu share his time and wisdom with us all on this episode.
