Meet your facilitator
My name is Masha and I am an indigenous artist-healer with an ancestral heritage of medicine women. Born in Cuenca, Ecuador, I am an Andean native (andina) of the Quechua-speaking peoples, where my paternal family lives to this day.
As a child, I learned about land stewardship and plant healing during summers with my late maternal grandmother in the Caucasus steppes of Russia.
These earth traditions formed the beginnings of my path as a healer. Most of what I use today are skills, techniques and knowledge gained from a lifetime of walking this shamanic path (шаман).
