With don Americo Yabar, Internationally Renown Peruvian Mystic, Poet, Healer and Chakaruna, or rainbow bridge between cultures, and his son Gayle Yabar, mystic and spiritual warrior
Please join us for a trip of a lifetime into the high Andes of Peru with Master Mystic, Poet, and Healer don Americo Yabar and his son Gayle Yabar. Together they will lead us into places of ancient ceremony that Westerners rarely see. Our intent will be to connect our hearts with the energies of the Apus (Mountain Spirits), Pacha Mama (Mother Earth), and the Cosmos for the purpose of personal and collective healing, spiritual growth, and transformation. This is a shamanic immersion experience of great power!
Our journey begins with a visit to legendary Cusco and then on to the Sacred Valley: gateway to the spiritual dimensions of the Andes. With Americo and Gayle we’ll explore its pre-Incan villages and non-tourist areas, commencing our introduction into Andean mysticism. We will also have the opportunity to sit in sacred circle with the indigeneous Q’ero paqos for a group offering to the Spirits of the land, practiced in this identical way in the mountains for thousands of years.
One of two additional highlights of the trip will be spending a few days in Americo’s ancestral home
Salka Wasi from where he shepherds the neighboring community of Molla Marka. Some of the campesinos
who live there will visit us, in particular the women
laykas who specialize in healing rituals. Another
highlight is our stay at Gayle’s beautiful retreat home Molino, naturally lush and secluded along the banks of the Urubamba river. Here we’ll have an opportunity to open even more deeply into the loving energies of Pacha Mama.
Our journey concludes with a tour of Machu Picchu, the best known and most spectacular archaeological site on the continent: the “Jewel of the Andes,” and a must see for all first-time travelers to Peru!
Because our extraordinary two-week adventure with Americo and Gayle is limited to a maximum of 12 people, if this trip calls to you we encourage you to register early. A detailed packet with travel information, what to bring, cancellation policy, and other essentials will be e-mailed to you on receipt of your deposit. If you have any questions after reading the particulars of our trip and itinerary below, please contact Karen Palmer.
Thank you very much, and we wish you All the Blessings of Light and Joy this Spring and Summer until we meet in the Fall,
– Karen and Evie

Internationally renowned don Americo Yabar is a Master Peruvian paqo, mystic, and poet from the high Andes. For over two decades, don Americo, considered a Chakaruna, or bridge between cultures, has taught world wide the sacred practices of both the predecessors and the descendants of the Incas. Today these indigenous communities continue to populate remote mountainous regions at elevations between 14,000 and 20,000 feet.
Gayle Yabar also calls these mountains his home. Living in their silent serenity has instilled in him a natural power that catalyzes this same deep awareness in others. He is an expert in personal growth and energy, and is seen as a warrior of Andean mysticism across the globe, especially by its youth.
Collectively, these ancient mountain therapies are known as the Andean Cosmovision. They help each person access filaments of light found within the heart, and then activate the connection of these filaments to Mother Earth (Pacha Mama), to the Stars, to all sentient and spiritual life found within the Universe, and, ultimately, to the Infinite.
Experiencing our heart in this way can transform our view of the world. Our eyes now have opportunities to “see” other dimensions of reality as portals of Love through which we can travel.
Of great importance to the West, don Americo has further introduced the Andean concept of Salk’a, inspired by the Quechua word for “wild.” Used therapeutically, Salk’a refers to that undomesticated, free energy inherent in all of nature (including us) that originates in and from the Divine. Together with his son Gayle, who has embodied the Salk’a path from an early age, don Americo will encourage us to explore our own Salk’a nature.

With don Americo Yabar, Internationally Renown Peruvian Mystic, Poet, Healer and Chakaruna, or rainbow bridge between cultures, and his son Gayle Yabar, mystic and spiritual warrior.
Internationally renowned don Americo Yabar is a Master Peruvian mystic, poet, and healer from the high Andes. For over two decades, don Americo, considered a Chakaruna, or rainbow bridge between cultures, most specifically from the Q’ero nation, has taught world wide the sacred practices of both the predecessors and the descendants of the Incas. Today these indigenous communities continue to populate remote mountainous regions at elevations between 14,000 and 20,000 feet.
Collectively, these ancient mountain therapies are known as the Andean Cosmovision. They help each person access filaments of light found within the heart, and then activate the connection of these filaments to Mother Earth (Pacha Mama), to the Stars, to all sentient and spiritual life found within the Universe, and ultimately, to the Infinite.
Of great importance to the West, don Americo has further introduced the Andean concept of Salk’a, inspired by the Quechua word for “wild.” Used therapeutically, Salk’a refers to that undomesticated, free energy inherent in all of nature (including us) that originates in and from the Divine.
In this two-day workshop don Americo will encourage us to explore our own Salk’a energies and will additionally guide us through teachings and healing techniques practiced by the Q’ero with as much reverence now as they were thousands of years ago. It is don Americo’s intent that each of us experience the profound effects of these mysteries directly, in deep consciousness, and with love.
Please join us for a most memorable and illuminating adventure!
