Bano de Despojo y Limpias (Spiritual Cleansing bath/wash)



One of the most fundamental and frequently needed rituals are the Spiritual Baths (Despojos) that helps you remove any negativity, energy shocks, or dark spirits that a person may have taken in their daily activity or directly targeted by third peoples. It also helps balance their internal and external energies promoting the positive flow for prosperity, wealth, happiness, health and love.

Baño de limpieza means literally “cleansing bath” and is a purifying herbal bath aimed at the dissipation of negative energies/thoughts that may have penetrated the auric field and/or the body of a person, creating a situation of unhealthy emotional imbalance. During each Ayahuasca retreat there will be three cleansing ritual baths per week (the timing is decided by the shaman), with Ayahuasca, Chacruna, Ajos sacha, Sara masho, or Rosa sisa leaves.

Through these ritual baths, the spirits of the plantas maestras are believed to enter more easily in contact with the person.
The shamans recommend that it is important not to shed off the flowers from one’s body, after having done a baño de florecimiento. The flowers should be left on your person for as long as possible (to retain good luck), and you should simply wait for them to fell down, with the natural movements of your body.
