Preparing For The Native Womkïsh Ceremony

Follow Pre-Ceremony Dietary Prep
- Prepare physically and mentally before intense ceremonies by fasting and avoiding certain foods and stimulants. Jake ate fruit and avoided caffeine and meat per suggestions to support the experience.
Confrontation By A Fiery Presence
- Inside the Womkïsh Jake ingested a large handful of mushrooms, focused on the fire, and experienced a fiery feminine presence that confronted him about his relationship to the earth. He was forced out as the fire was extinguished and retreated to a tent feeling overwhelmed and cold.
