A Yearlong In-Person Initiation into Sacred Healing, Ceremony, and Personal Transformation
EARLY BIRD PRICING
Limited Spaces
Step Into the Heart of Your Medicine
You’ve been walking the path of healing and awakening, whether quietly within yourself or alongside others. You’ve studied, practiced, sought understanding… yet a subtle knowing calls: there is more to embody, more to awaken, more to remember.
The Pachakuti Mesa Tradition (PMT) is a cross-cultural lineage of shamanism rooted in the living wisdom of the Andes for our modern times—originated by Peruvian Kamasqa Curandero don Oscar Miro-Quesada.
It offers a sacred, heart-centered framework for:
Reclaiming your own wholeness
Transmuting emotional density safely and powerfully
Expanding your presence and capacity for transformation
This is not a course. It is a yearlong container for becoming — a journey where you awaken the Shamanic Healer within, whether you are guiding others or walking your own personal path.
Our STORY is about TRUSTING SOUL.
Our JOURNEY is about HONOURING SPIRIT.
Our TRUTH is about OPENING HEART.
Our POWER is about TRANSFORMING MIND.
Our SERVICE is about HEALING BODY.
Our LEGACY is about AWAKENING BELONGINGNESS.
Our DESTINY is about EVOLVING PRESENCE.
Our REALITY is about BIRTHING A NEW WORLD.
– don Oscar Miro-Quesada
Your Initiation Into Presence
To stand taller—not from force, but from remembrance.
To feel your eyes shine with trust in life, in yourself, and in the unseen.
To release lifetimes of self-shaming, perfectionism, and people-pleasing, and instead root into your sovereignty with quiet, embodied power.
This is the essence of the PMT path.
It’s not about simply learning rituals.
It’s about remembering the language of your soul.
It’s about alchemizing dense emotions through ceremony, prayer, and presence.
It’s about feeling safe in your body again, and knowing that your empathy is not a burden—it is your medicine.
Whether you are a seeker ready to go deeper into your own transformation, or a healer ready to expand and amplify your medicine, this Apprenticeship meets you exactly where you are—and carries you to the next level of embodied presence.

The Arc of the Apprenticeship
SCHEDULE: FRIDAY, 7PM - 10PM | SATURDAY, 9AM - 10PM | SUNDAY, 10AM- 3PM
LOCATION: Wild Earth YURT, 12380 Concession Road 2, Zephyr, On, L0E1T0, Canada
Over the course of five immersive weekend intensives, you’ll be guided step-by-step through the pillars of the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition.
Part I: The Call to Heal (Releasing the Past)
You will be initiated into creating your own Pachakuti Mesa—a shamanic sacred altar for healing, empowerment, and transformation. You’ll learn to create and work with your mesa as a living source of medicine for yourself and others.
Through shamanic journeying, you’ll explore the three worlds of the Andean cosmovision, deepen into sacred reciprocity, and receive the foundations of ceremonial mastery—sacred sound, ritual language, curanderismo, and the mysteries of the Ukhupacha, the inner world where renewal begins.
Part II: A Balance of Power (Transforming the Present)
You’ll apprentice in the center direction of your mesa, opening to the flow of energy through the realms with a focus on the Kaypacha, the middle world. Here, you’ll explore its elemental matrix and magico-spiritual power, attune to the sun and moon’s presence in the middle world, and map the cosmos upon the Earth.
Through these teachings, you’ll deepen your understanding of balance, power, and the mysteries of celestial death and rebirth.
Part III: The Condor’s Quest (Creating the Future)
You’ll dive deeply into the Paqokuna, exploring the mystical path of the Andean shaman/priesthood, the lineage of the sacred mountains, and the five virtues of the mesa. You’ll learn to create a despacho (earth offering) and engage directly with ceremony that anchors your future path.
You’ll journey into the Hanaqpacha, the upper world beyond the physical, connecting with unseen realms and awakening your own spiritual resources to guide your life and work with clarity and power.
Part IV: The Hummingbird’s Ascent (Living the Mystery)
You’ll be initiated into the healing arts of the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition, exploring the lightning bolt of mystical illumination — the flow of Kamasqa, the power of Creation. You’ll work with the elements, universal forces, Mother Earth, and sacred healing objects to awaken deeper wisdom and presence.
Through sacred reciprocity, you’ll create despachos honouring the mountains, elements, and unseen realms, preparing your heart and spirit for the Paqowachu, a sacred pilgrimage and vision quest.
Pacowachu | Vision Quest
A Vision Quest is an ancient rite of passage that invites you to step beyond daily distractions and enter deep communion with Spirit and Nature. Through fasting, ceremony, and attentive listening, you receive direct guidance and renewal for your path.
This journey empowers you to amplify the power and medicine of your sacred work, returning with clarity, vitality, and purpose to share with your community. You complete this quest individually, following instructions from don Oscar, with optional support from a trusted elder if desired.
Part V: The Shamanic Self (Serving the Earth)
You’ll dive deep into soul and spirit through sacred ritual, including the creation, activation, and care of your apacheta (stone altar). You’ll work with the power of dimensionality and time, practice hampikamayoq breathing techniques, and engage with ancient Hermetic wisdom to expand your awareness.
You’ll further evoke both seen and unseen sources of cosmic guidance within your mesa, sacred objects, and your own being, receiving initiation into the lineage of this revered tradition — fully stepping into your role as a healer, guide, and steward of the Earth.
" I walked into my first weekend with little expectations, and I am leaving feeling radically transformed. Not only was I able to connect deeply with my animal ally, I also feel like so much Hucha (density) was purged from my body.
A deeper energetic healing and retrieval of my fragmented self has emerged. I am deeply grateful to utilize these spiritual tools in my life to allow for further healing.
I also leave with a deeper understanding of Ayni (Sacred Reciprocity) to be intentional with my awareness and reciprocal relationships to plants, beings and spaces around me.
Naty is a magical being. She emanates deep wisdom, love and a sincere desire for us to connect deeply with the process she facilitated for us. I feel seen by her, trust her spirit to guide us further in this Apprenticeship."

"I came to the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition Apprenticeship after hitting rock bottom. I felt empty and very alone, looking to reconnect with myself and source once again.
I came without expectations, just an inner knowing that I need this.
I was met at the yurt with such an amazing magical energy of the space and of Naty as our teacher. She is such beautiful, caring and compassionate soul, who creates sacred space for us to heal from within.
I feel forever changed after just my first weekend."
Rhianon Weston
"Every time I talk about the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition, all of my being lights up. I begin to radiate out the light I found within. And in the most beautiful way, my surrounding reflects that energy back to me.
Pachakuti means word reversal. This is so literal and I completely underestimated the power of this journey. A part of me always knew that flipping the world upside down and dissapearing into the Ukhupacha (World of the Within), to befriend my shadows needed to happen.
When I actually embarked on this quest, I found myself resisting it at first, wanting to shut my eyes bacause I was afraid of what I might see.
Before, I would have diagnosed myself with depression. I would have wondered why is this happening 'to me'? Through the portal of the PMT, I've enetered a healing vortex that lets me fly high with the winds and see everything from an eagle perspective. I get to use the elemental forces, encantos, for my personal healing, the healing of my lineage and therefore the healing of the collective.
My human experience feels more and more meaningful. The path of being in serivce of teh light keeps calling my name. So here I am stepping into my power through the wild and ancient teachings of this lineage. There is lots to remember and this is only the beginning. I stand in deep gratitude, humbled by the forces of the Universe.
Naty creates an environment of sacredness that allows magick to happen in a way that always feels safe and appropiate. Her humble heart shines the light of love and wisdom. She cares for her students and their individual journeys.
I can absorb and contain the teachings through her in a very susteinable way. I didn't like school when I was a child, yet Naty's way of teaching leaves me charged, inspired and excited for the next PMT weekend to come.
She feels like a friend, guide, mentor. She hears each participant out and understands how to find the perfect balance between flow, surrender and guidance, setting boundaries in her teachigns. I am very much grateful for her presence in this apprenticeship and in my life!"

FAQ
The 5 weekend Shamanic Apprenticeship is an in-person immersive environment.
Each weekend builds upon the next and offers shamanic activations that are needed to integrate the teachings of that particular weekend and prepare your whole body-mind-psyche-soul to receive the teachings of the following weekend.
Because of the cumulative and sequential nature of each weekend training, all weekend trainings need to be done in order.
Please understand that your commitment to the schedule is extremely important to be able to complete the Apprenticeship.
Each intensive is an initiatory lineage activation and transmission that must be fulfilled sequentially. For example, the first level is prerequisite for the second level and so on.
In order to proceed with the Shamanic Apprenticeship, the missed weekend training needs to be done by the apprentice.
3 options for making up the missed weekend training are:
>> Option A - Request a make-up class at an additional cost of $800 (Dependant on Naty's Schedule and rental space availability).
>> Option B - Find another teacher in the PMT community who has the missed weekend training coming up. You will have to pay the New Teacher directly to attend their weekend workshop and it will most likely involve travel.
>> Option C- Wait till I teach the missed weekend again next year. (There would be no extra charge for this, but it is contingent on there being space available).
Weekend intensives include fruit, snacks, and teas.
Please bring your own meals.
Saturday: You will need lunch + dinner.
Sunday: You will need lunch.
*Please bring a cup with a lid.
