Wise Women- Gregorio Acuña

Gregorio Acuña has been studying and practicing shamanism for 30 years of his life. 

 

His healing journey started 30 years ago in El Paso, Texas with a Chapter of The Native American Church and the use of peyote. There and in Jalisco Mexico, Gregorio studied with Don Andreas Jimenez Valenzuela, an elder Marakame (Shaman) from the Huichol Indian Tribe in Mexico two years, before being invited by the elder to become a Matawame (Shaman’s Apprentice). Gregorio was initiated in the the Order of Marakames 10 years later in the Huichol Indian Pueblo of Nueva Colonia, Mexico. 

 

During that time period, Gregorio also studied and apprenticed with Don Ernesto Nerey, a well known and respected elder Spiritual Medium and Curandero in El Paso, TX and was initiated as a Curandero by him. Gregorio is also a Certified NLP and Hypnotherapy Practitioner and has been practicing both since 1998.
