What is this ancient Amazonian brew helping everyone from celebritites to hip millenials find themselves?
Claims of spiritual awakening have taken hold of Western culture by storm. Ayahuasca is a South American holistic brew used as a ceremonial spiritual medicine among the indigenous peoples of the Amazon basin. An Ayahuasca ceremony involves drinking the plant/vine tea which is considered a spiritual sacrement under the guidance of a respected Shaman, for a long night spent in deep connection to a higher intelligence and an understanding of one's true self.
This medicine, its religious importance, and the sincerity of these ceremonies are reviewed in light of governing law, such as the First Amendment of the US Constitution & the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA).
