Ayahuasca Awakenings: Interview with Rev Dr. Jessica Rochester
Ayahuasca Awakening, A Guide to Self-Discovery, Self-Mastery and Self-Care, Volumes One and Two, were written in response to frequent requests for me to put into a “guidebook” the theories and concepts that I teach. It is my sincere hope that these books will provide readers with the information they need to navigate their personal journey of self-discovery. Jessica Rochester D.Div. March 4, 2022
