KambĂ´ 4: We did multiple rounds in consecutive days. Some in our group did 2 days while others did 3. Abel began our first session with application of 3 âdotsâ where the skin is burned, peeled open with a surgical tool, and then covered with the Amazonian Monkey Frog venom. This ceremony was one that all of us were incredibly nervous about, as it was all of our first time experiencing the technique. Prior to the ceremony commencement, we consume 1.5-2 liters of water. Within minutes, nausea and dizziness begin. The vomiting and purge comes next, but for some the threshold isnât reached to actually vomit and the nausea can continue to last all day. Despite how uncomfortable and frankly unenjoyable the experience can seem, we all felt it was worthwhile. After the discomfort subsides, there is an electrifying feeling as the substance courses through the body. Said to rapidly detox the lymphatic system and also clear emotional stagnation, post ceremony is quite invigorating. After a nap and some relaxation, there is clarity plus sensations of vitality.
