Held and led by Renato Guerrero, from Chile.
Renato has extensive experience working with sacred plants and guiding ceremonies, his trademarks are commitment, dedication and deep love for the arts of consciousness and ancestral connection to sacred plants which makes him a professional in the field.
Tobacco is an ancestral plant, known by some traditions as "the oldest", the master of ceremonies. As the years went by, it gained popularity in large corporations creating tobacco companies to transform it into a reason for social rejection due to the use and abuse of cigarettes and supposed causes of lung cancer among others.
After a long time working with tobacco and learning from it, Renato feels the call to give a beautiful legacy and show you the different ways to work ethically and professionally with Grandfather Tobacco. That is why he felt like creating this training, so that you can delve deeper into the appropriate use of this wonderful sacred plant.
By eliminating the bad reputation of this beautiful plant and bring it to light, where its love and power can take us to great levels of understanding and to healthy practices for the appropriate use of this medicine. Renato wants you to take the best of this initiation and be a respectful guide and carrier of the Sacred Tobacco for a greater good.
