WHAT IS BANISTERIOPSIS CAAPI VINE? 

Ayahuasca has been used as a potent plant medicine amongst the indigenous people of the Amazon Rainforest for at least 1000 years. It is administered by shamans for its purgative, cleansing, and healing properties. While many people are aware of the psychedelic Ayahuasca brew, the Banisteriopsis Caapi vine by itself (also known as Ayahuasca) is not as well known. But many shamans consider the vine to contain the spirit of the medicine.

The Ayahuasca brew is traditionally comprised of two ingredients, Banisteriopsis Caapi vine and Chacruna leaf. The Chacruna leaf is the add-mixture to the Ayahuasca brew that contains DMT, a powerful psychoactive medicine. The Banisteriopsis Caapi vine, or ‘vine of the souls’ however, does not contain DMT and is not psychoactive, but is believed to be where the wisdom of Mother Ayahuasca lives, and has many incredible healing benefits. B.Caapi vine alone is a profoundly healing master plant medicine.

Studies in Western medicine show impressive results in the B.Caapi vine’s ability to heal a myriad of issues within the body and mind. 

A study published in ‘Scientific Reports Journal’ in 2017 showed the incredible effects of Banisteriopsis Caapi vine's alkaloids, Harmine, Harmaline, and Tetrahydroharmine (MAO inhibitors) and their ability to work as an antioxidant and antidepressant, increase brain function, and help to relieve the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease.

DOSAGE PROTOCOL

For most people, the morning is the best time to take a dose because the beneficial effects will last throughout the day without interfering with sleep.

It is important to follow your usual routine while micro-dosing. The purpose is to enhance your day-to-day existence by integrating microdoses into your routine, so don’t change what you normally do.

Between 1 and 5 drops are to be taken in the morning under your tongue. Hold the drops under your tongue for 1-3 minutes.
For both of the protocols below, dosing should only be done for a maximum of 4 weeks with a 7-day break before beginning your protocol again, if necessary. 

A 30ml bottle of Aya Vine will last for about 3 months/3 courses, depending on the droplet dosage that you choose. 

DO NOT EXCEED 5 DROPS PER DAY AND DO NOT EXCEED A 4-WEEK PROTOCOL WITHOUT TAKING A BREAK. 

Shake the drops well before use, and keep them stored in a cool, dark place. Preferably the fridge. 

PROTOCOL FOR BEGINNERS 

Begin by taking 1 drop every 3rd day. The easiest way to do this is to dose for example on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and take the whole weekend off before beginning again on Monday. 

Gradually begin building up your dose until you find your sweet spot. Do not exceed more than 5 drops per day. 

PROTOCOL FOR THE MORE EXPERIENCED 

Take between 1 and 5 drops every morning under your tongue. 

GETTING THE MOST OUT OF YOUR EXPERIENCE

When it comes to sacred plant medicines as potent and transformative as the vine, preparation is a huge part of not only creating a safer experience for yourself but for respecting the plant. 

If you want to receive this plant’s teachings and wisdom, approach it with humility and respect. Preparation is part of that. 

This plant spirit responds really strongly to your intention. The more intention and energy you put into it, the more it will give back to you. 

It is a good idea to ask yourself, what guidance am I seeking in my life? What am I seeking support with? What am I looking to heal, shift, transform, or awaken to? Getting clear on your intention is an important part of the preparation for working with the vine. 

Here are my recommendations for getting the most out of your micro-dosing journey: 

• Keep a journal at the end of each day. This will help you to keep track of how you are feeling and of any insights gained 

• Understand that the vine may bring up some unprocessed emotions, so be prepared for some potential emotional cleansing and release. If this does arise it is important to trust in the medicine and surrender to this experience 

• Create a ceremony or ritual around your dosing. Take the time to slow down and tune in. This can be as simple as lighting a candle, smudging your space with palo santo or sage, and meditating for 10 minutes to connect with the spirit of the vine.

• Invite the spirit of the vine in to assist you in shifting patterns or finding solutions to them. Offer them up to be transformed or released for your highest good

• Create a clear intention around why you are beginning a micro-dosing journey

• Open yourself up to spiritual guidance during your micro-dosing journey.

WHAT OTHERS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCE WITH THE VINE TINCTURE

"I can't recommend this amazing medicine enough. It truly has given me the strength to put my pieces back together and reclaim parts of myself that were lost. Since starting the drops I have completely quit smoking weed which I was struggling to do before. I have found that I remember joy, and feel I have been held through some phenomenal shifts within myself that I don't think I would have been brave enough to go so deeply into without the support of this medicine. It's like having an ancestral army right beside me willing me to keep on pushing. I could never have imagined how this sacred medicine would help all areas of my life and I will be forever thankful for its existence."

- Eve 

"It’s so incredible how I’m clearing things that I never even realised I had hidden in myself. It all comes so deep. The other night I released some grief that I’ve been holding onto for years, to wake up the next morning feeling completely renewed. I am now on 3 drops every 3 days and it seems so perfect. I feel like I am being held by an army of invisible love, it’s a guidance that I’m so very grateful for. I feel like I’m getting all of my keys back and I love it.

 It’s literally changing my whole world. And wow…my consciousness. It has burst my healing wide open and given me such a new vision to come from. I cannot rate it enough. I thought microdosing shrooms was amazing, but this is like shrooms great great grandparents, and they do not play. It’s an incredible experience!"

- Claire 

"This experience has been beautiful. I took it before I started my morning yoga. I felt focused, had elevated mood, heightened awareness and widened peripheral vision, very light in the body, heart opening, and a bit funny! The next morning I took 2 drops just before sitting with my client and it helped me to hold better space for him, I felt grounded and connected to source. My wisdom was flowing freely. I could definitely feel the presence of the spirit and it re-activated some of the processes from my last retreat. I have absolutely loved working with the medicine in this way!"
