THE CALLING
Many who come to this medicine do not come only to heal. Somewhere along the way, they feel a deeper calling to serve. If that stirring lives in you, a first circle is now forming.
This is not a weekend certificate. It is a real apprenticeship in the craft of holding sacred space, built on the belief that the medicine alone is not enough. Ceremony, integration, and community are what allow true transformation to take root. We teach the container first and the substance second, and we honor the Indigenous lineages these traditions come from.
THE PATH
A FOUNDATION, THEN YOUR SPECIALTY
You begin with a shared foundation, the heart of the work that lives beneath every medicine. From there you choose the medicine you are called to serve, and go deep.
FOUNDATIONS
Holding space, screening and safety, ethics and lineage, and the sacred craft of integration.
GOD MOLECULE
The doorway of deep transcendence, held in the tightest of containers.
GRANDFATHER MEDICINE
The heart-opening path of San Pedro, also called Huachuma, walked gently across a full day.
PSILOCYBIN & CACAO
The heart-opening path, held across a ceremonial arc.
GRANDMOTHER MEDICINE
The multi-day immersion, closest to the traditional lineage.
KAMBO
The traditional purge and reset, taught as its own discipline
HYBRID & HELD
Study from wherever you are, and come to the Sacred Desert Sanctuary for the ceremonial work.
THE SACRED PROGRESSION
YOU CANNOT SERVE A DOORWAY YOU HAVE NEVER WALKED THROUGH
This work cannot be learned from a screen alone. Woven through the whole path is a living progression, walked in order, over roughly a year for the first path.
I
RECEIVE THE MEDICINE
You journey with the medicine yourself and are held through your own integration.
II
CO-FACILITATE
You serve alongside Danny, first observing, then holding pieces of the container under guidance.
III
FACILITATE YOUR OWN
When you are ready, you hold a ceremony of your own, with a mentor present.
THE STRUCTURE
A REAL PATH, HELD WEEK BY WEEK
The heartbeat of the school is the Wednesday Night Circle, a live virtual class every week at 5:00 to 7:00 PM Pacific, always recorded. Around it, each week has the same shape: about 90 minutes of guided study on your own time, the two-hour live circle, and an hour every other week in a small peer pod. Roughly four hours a week, real but livable. We teach in blocks with integration weeks built in, because integration is where the learning lands.

SIGNATURE FEATURE
The Sacred Ministry Set-Up
Every graduate receives something almost no other training offers: hands-on support to establish their own sacred ministry, so those truly called to carry the work forward are set up properly from day one. This includes preparation of the paperwork to establish your own ministry through a California religious filing, and guidance to obtain your federal EIN.
Please note: We are not attorneys, and this is not legal advice. This is offered as administrative and educational support to help you prepare and organize your own filing. A religious filing establishes an entity and the EIN is issued federally; a filing on its own does not by itself grant legal permission to serve any particular medicine. For legal questions specific to your situation, we encourage you to work with a qualified attorney.
THE FOUNDING CIRCLE
BE AMONG THE FIRST TO CARRY THIS LINEAGE FORWARD
This first circle is intentionally small, so the container stays intimate and true. As a founding member, there is special founding pricing, along with payment plans and a scholarship seat held with love for the right person. These details are shared personally, in conversation.
ONLY 6 TO 8 SOULS
DATES
WE INITIATE ON THE AUTUMN EQUINOX

The day light and dark stand in balance. Foundations opens online, with the first in-person intensive at the sanctuary in the season that follows. Founding seats are limited, and enrollment closes when they are filled.
