063: Rich D'amaru - On Failing Towards Your Purpose -- An Ayahuasca Shamans Perspective

Shout out to PODCORN for sponsoring today's episode of People of Purpose!   For the better part of the last decade, Rich has been immersed in the multitude of yoga teachings across many lineages as well as a deep study of the various shamanic healing arts in South America. He tends to redirect questions about what style of yoga he teaches, as he has thoroughly enjoyed Hatha, Ashtanga, Iyengar, and various of the other cleverly thought out styles and philosophies of yoga and movement medicines. Rich feels there is wisdom to be gleaned from all of these art forms, and incorporate aspects of all of them into my offerings for my students. The path towards union is as varied as the faces of those that practice. He has been blessed to be both student and teacher across many parts of the world, from bustling cities like New York London, Barcelona, and the Florida Keys, to deep in the rainforest of Peru, Key West, Thailand, Bali, and in the presence of masters in India. The amazing list of countries he has had the honor to be of service in is ever-growing. Rich's path to the self has included deep immersion and study in the shamanic arts, studying with individuals and tribes alike, including the people of the Shipibo, Matses, and Yawanawa. Many of the lessons he has learned regarding our truest nature and the workings of our energetic body are interwoven into my teaching style. He is ever grateful for his students and honored to hold space for their development. The gathering and growing of his global tribe is the highest honor and gift.   You can find out more about Rich D'amaru in the links below : ⬇️ Website Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/triplevisionintent/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/richdamaru/?hl=en   Listen as we talk about: His process of transformation from being a nuclear engineer and tattoo artist to becoming an Ayahuasca Shaman.
