"FATHER TABACCO"

Tabacco is a Master Plant collected in the Amazon. It's mission is to look for emotional ancient prints that we have been storing in our body over the years. It's purpose is to cleanse, to purify on the physically and emotional level. And it prepares body and mind for the Taita Selva.

Taita Selva is a mixture of 8 master plants of the Peruvian Amazon whose mission is to re-balance at an energetic level and purify negative thoughts.Taita Selva is designed for use in diet (4 days of intakes).This mixture of plants goes in two directions:- The psychic-emotional part works through clarifying dreams of past, present and future of a high level of understanding. It is a teacher in dreams. Frequently forgotten moments of the past are seen. You revive and recognize entire periods of life. It is knowledge in a liquid state. It is the guide to worlds where knowledge and light exist. It is useful to heal the cold of the heart; Warms a cold heart or cools a heart full of anger. It helps people to love and connect with others, as well as with themselves.

 Lecturer Information

José Vila

Born in Sabadell in 1951, coming from a technical background he became an entrepreneur, until his health problems led him to seek a solution that Western medicine cannot seem to offer and came into contact with the traditional Amazonian medicine and knowledge of the sacred plants, which brought him not only his personal healing but also the discovery of their abilities to help others.

Today José is devoted entirely to work with the "master plants" as he likes to say, since their purpose is to awaken the inner teacher that every person has inside. This work with plants is twofold: healing and knowledge. In short, finding (and surrendering) to your own life's path.

Furthermore, he is therapist in the "Yesod Center" which he foundeded in 1993 in his hometown of Sabadell together with his wife, Esperanza.

José and Esperanza are also certified Holotropic Breathwork Practitioners and work in group settings as well as with individuals using a wide range of therapeutic techniques.

Jose is author of the book "Let it happen- a path of healing through Ayahuasca and Master Plants of the Peruvian Amazon" (English Edition)

Esperanza Lopez

Born in Sabadell in 1952, she has combined always work with family life, focusing on a professional development that would serve others. Besides her extensive knowledge and work with master plants, especially tobacco, she also trained in other natural therapies such as flower essences as well as different manual techniques such as chiropractic, reflexology and cranio sacral which she also teaches. 

Having completed training in Family Constellations and Holotropic Breathwork she works together with her husband José in the Yesod Therapy Center in Sabadell.
