THE FOUNDER
Costanza Di Prisco
She embarked on her journey with psychedelics over 12 years ago, starting as a participant, then as an assistant and later began working as a psychedelic ceremonialist and educator. She has thorough training with shamans, therapists, and healers leading to her current roles. Her academic background includes studies in Bioneuroemotion, Somatic Therapy, Yoga, Breathwork, and the Psychedelic Practitioner Training from the Synthesis Institute. She is presently undertaking training in Internal Family Systems. In recent years, her focus has been on psilocybin, though she works and has experience with a range of plant medicines. In her Breathwork Sessions she foster the participant embodied connection to awaken the inner wisdom and facilitate healing.
Having completed an in-depth master plant dieta with Noya Rao, she initially embraced the Shipibo tradition from Peru in her shamanic practices. Over time, she has developed her own unique approach, deeply rooted in her South American heritage and personal path. Her facilitation style combines ancient wisdom methods with cognitive therapeutic techniques from the West to produce powerful transformational experiences. When singing in ceremony, Costanza places emphasis on the healing potential of music. Her goal is to serve as a bridge for people seeking to start or continue their own journeys of self-discovery; creating safe spaces so others can engage in their psychedelic healing experiences feeling supported and empowered so their own inner wisdom can emerge.
