Well it just wouldn't be complete without Bruce hurling everywhere would it ;)
Bruce is my hero, I thank you for the information on the petro-chemical company's contaminating the indigenous peoples of Peru. I am disgusted and ashamed to buy petrol products.
Is incredible how Bruce accepts any challenge.
Really really brave.
This is so funny, just goes to show, get a couple of blokes together with fags and booze and you'll get someone throwing up in a bucket
Wow, ayahuasca is a medicine for the soul. For some it's like "seeing" for the first time.
I hope you gained many beneficial insights from your experience. :)

yep, beer + fags = vomit
would b better if you gave us a little more info on what's actually goin on - after all, otherwise it's just a guy throwing up in a bucket.
A friend of a friend of mine recently took ayahuasca as part of a 'shaman' ceremony right her in Britain. Unfortunately for him, his brain swelled up and he eventually died. He was a young man and it seems a terrible waste of life. I guess the lesson is that these things are not to be dabbled with lightly.
Wow....I am so excited to have come across this site ....I took ayahuasca when I was in the rainforest in Ecuador 2006 ....it was the most terrifying yet amazing experience of my life! A friend was writing a dissertation on it so we went early to watch the shaman prepare it. He picked some leaves and bark out of the surrounding forest, chopped it up a bit and then got the wife to boil it on an open fire. We had to wait for dark as otherwise it ruin your sight. Then it began! We stood up and drank a small bowl of ayahuasca...it took about 30mins to kick in and then the roller coaster began...rolling round in my own sick, couldn't see or hear (apart from what seemed like a bee buzzing around me) and felt awful (another world had beckoned upon me)...The shamen tried to release the bad spirits in various ways such as fanning me and putting things in my mouth (possible ginger? i had no clue what they were doing and kept spitting them) no words can describe it...after 4 hours or so I started to come around..and still couldn't walk and continued to be sick while guided back through the forest to my caba帽a. No words can describe what i felt like that night but was certainly an eye opener! Maybe if you do it you will have a good experience either way it is an experience worth having! (this vague description does not do it justice) (just to add ...Why are we chopping down the rainforests when they can provide us with drugs which could also cure!?)
