E34 How Ayahuasca Changed My Life with Ansuya Devi

Evolving Door

A deeply personal and profound conversation detailing the journey of Ansuya Devi, attorney, holistic coach and founder of Modern Ancients Sanctuary. From humble beginnings in Hackney, growing up in a large Hindu family of Mauritian Indian immigrants, Ansuya and her siblings desperately strived for balance between Eastern and Western cultures. Her move to study law in Manchester was considered a huge deal, and she herself did not realise that quite soon after she would move to the USA as an attorney, and build a corporate middle class world for herself, and yet a simple Ayahuasca ceremony would change her path. This led Anusuya to navigate a tricky balance of her old and new life, to ultimately find her purpose in a life of service, founding a holistic retreat centre in Peru. Listeners will enjoy learning the fascinating details of her personal spiritual journey, her vast knowledge in the power of mediation, yoga, plant medicine and healing. Balance is not found on the top, it's created on the way.
