Like millions of other Americans, Ol Serbon felt like she tried everything to recover from her past. Failed relationships, missed opportunities, mental and physical health issues, and other negative events continued to weigh heavily on her, despite her best efforts to heal her body and mind. After years of trying several different options, Serbon nearly gave up. Luckily, she found out about ayahuasca retreats and embarked on her first trip to the Amazon jungle in 2016.
Ayahuasca is a traditional brew made from the leaves of the Psychotria viridis shrub and stalks of the Banisteriopsis caapi vine. Combining these plants creates a powerful psychedelic brew that can allow people to enter altered states of consciousness and have out-of-body experiences, hallucinations, and euphoria. The drink is often consumed in religious or spiritual ceremonies throughout North and South America.
In Conversations with Ayahuasca, Serbon describes how the ceremonial drink changed her life and forever altered her viewpoint of the world and reality as a whole. The memoir takes the reader along on several journeys to the Amazon rainforest to partake in traditional shamanic rituals involving ayahuasca.
During one of her ayahuasca retreats, Serbon met a spiritual guide named Aya. Aya showed Serbon what appeared to be alternate dimensions, different realities, and ancient civilizations through time travel. Serbon intuitively felt as if this was evidence that history repeats itself in broad, predictable cycles, just as human souls reincarnate over time. After this enlightening experience, Serbon returned home with a fresh outlook on her life.
Back home, Serbon practiced meditation every day to connect with Aya. She documented her experiences — which included receiving visions and other messages from the spirit guide — while in a trance-like meditative state. After several months of practicing meditation, Serbon started to feel drawn to the country of India for additional spiritual guidance. That’s when an entirely new journey begins for Serbon, and she invites you, the reader, to follow your curiosity and give spiritual healing a try. $0.99 on Kindle.
