Lásko, a novel

Lásko is a novel by Canadian author Catherine Cooper, which was published in 2023 by Freehand Books. Set in Prague, Czech Republic, it is described by author Johanna Skibsrud as, “at once an intimate tale of personal awakening, a love story, and a provocative parable about the lures and dangers of influence.”

While Lásko is a work of fiction, the book’s protagonist, Mája, meets several real-world characters over the course of the story, including Takiwasi’s Jacques Mabit and Rosa Giove Nakazawa.

Amazonian Master Plants in Containment Mode

The intake of master plants in a containment mode is a very effective process if done correctly and provides a perennial structural change. It is useless or even dangerous if it is not done well or the rules are not respected (dose, diet, care...). It allows having a “pool” of specific psychotherapeutic assistants for rehabilitation work simultaneously on a physical, psychoemotional and spiritual level… the contents that rise to the surface (the experiences during the isolation time in the jungle, dreams, memories, grief and wounds) manifest with great lucidity and are highly significant in the process of addiction treatment and human development.

"Amazonian Master Plants in Containment Mode: a subtle and active company in the process of change". Author: Uriel J. López Legaria, psychologist member of the Takiwasi therapeutic team. Full article published in the web page of Takiwasi.
