Dream Change Coalition, founded by the Shuar people of Ecuador and by John Perkins, a former World Bank economic advisor, brings people to visit shamans and experience a different way of life. We were very far from any medical help. At some point in the evening, someone said that the shaman was going to do some healings, and asked if I wanted to watch. I said yes. I was so dehydrated they had to carry me into the shaman's home.
Nothing's ingested, there's no manipulation . . .
20 minutes later I was well. I went into the jungle the next day, and I hiked everywhere, and I did what everyone else did. And I can't explain it, not in a million years. Because we are healers too. Well, you can do that, because essentially their techniques have not changed.
