About Mystery — Medicina Mamankuna

Mystery’s Biography.

Mystery is an experienced retreat leader, medicine woman, initiated Amazonian Capanahua Curandera, mentor and transformational guide — working over a decade with men and women in circles, retreats, festivals, her deep initiation journeys & Masterplant diets.

Her mission is creating sacred spaces to bring people together to heal, liberate, awaken to their true power & medicine, to remember their deep wisdom, connect profoundly with the Divine and celebrate life truly — together as a unified, all embracing tribe.

Her Story

She has devoted herself from an early age to the path of remembrance, self-discovery, traditional healing practices and deep contemplation of the core of existence. She grew up as clairvoyant and clairsentient child in Berlin being able to communicate with saints, spirits and nature. Back then she thought this was normal until some very traumatic events in her childhood started to obscure this gift. With 12 years old she a near death experience, where these gifts cam back to life.

At age 17 Mystery completed her first training in nature shamanism in the mountains of Portugal. Since then, her inquiry into the meaning of Life and her place in the universe was ignited. Her first longer travel to India, a year later, brought her to a transformational initiation into classical white Tantra and awoke another part of her mission in life: healing & balancing the sacred feminine with the sacred masculine — in herself and in the world. Since then Yoga and Vipassana meditation have formed a strong foundation of witness consciousness within her. This joy for awakening practices through later all kinds of active and passive meditation inquiries, led her also to work as a group meditation teacher in Brazil.

Her studies of the divine feminine teachings, lead her to the beginning of her women’s work. Mystery is until today guiding women through transformational processes within group journeys, private retreats, ceremonies and her work within the Mamankuna Mentorship.

Through another very traumatic event in her early twenties, she went through a dark night of the soul, which brought her to a yearlong pilgrimage in South America.

2015 was a deep initiatory year into the work with the sacred medicines, indigenous ways of healing, tribal wisdom and created a deep devotion to the path of Shamanism & Curanderismo.

On her own healing journey, she got initiated into the native arts of working with trauma, liberating deep pain, belief systems, conditioning; inner child traumas and energetic blockages. From her time with indigenous peoples like the Sachila, Aymaras, Huni Kuin, Pataxó and the Yawanawa, she learned about the ancestral wisdom of the Elders, the plants and the infinite love of the Creator. This wisdom has become a well of healing for herself and others. Today she helps people to be free, to be present with Life, whilst fully being connected to their intuition, their ancestry and purpose in life; as well as being strongly rooted into Mother Earth.

The work with the ancestry is a main pillar of Mystery’s work. In her opinion one can only fly as high with both our (spiritual) wings, as we are rooted into our lineage. Our ancestors are strengthening our gifts, our medicine in this world — reconnecting with them brings an abundance of blessings into our path. In the western societies, we often have lost touch with this. This is why ancestral healing is so important on our conscious journey, as it is pointing us into the direction, where we are invited to release repetitive cycles and create a new narrative - for ourselves and for our lineage.

Mystery has also promoted in 2019 as a Master of Arts in Indigenous Studies on the Karl-Franz University in Austria. Her vast knowledge about the challenges of indigenous people has led her to write several articles in foresight policies journals and touch many hearts in the academic realms. She received a UN recommendation, but decided rather than being a spokesperson on multinational level, to share the teachings within her work as a medicine woman, retreat leader and transformational Guide.

She created a small NGO called Stand up for Love. This fund is being sustained by donations and a percentage of her work and supports grass-roots level projects of indigenous people.

After apprenticing and learning within different medicine traditions, such as Shipibo, Capahuana, Santo Daime, Sachila, Yawanawa, Mystery started to hold her own medicine retreats in 2020. She is the founder of Medicine of Love, Mystery School of the Sacred Feminine and her current signature ignition journey Medicine Womb. She has been guiding over 600 people during weekend retreats or longer deep initiation journeys. Her music has been helping many people to journey into the depths of their own being, releasing centuries of conditioning, meeting suppressed wounds & stories and opening the pathways to the divine Love & Truth.

Mystery brings celestial realms together with the core of the earth, maneuvers vibrational chants and carries many beautiful icaros. She is a multi-instrumentalist and plays guitar, shamanic frame drums, chacapa, maraca, flute, shruti and harmonium. She has received many songs during the many years of her devoted studies & diets and also brings an eclectic selection from different chants around the world into ceremony. You can listen to some of her recorded Music via Spotify and bandcamp.

Since 2019 Mystery has been in an devotional apprenticeship with her Maestro Josue Perez Rios in the Peruvian Amazon. She is undergoing a traditional Curandera and Tabaquera training, in which she has to complete 14 different Masterplant diets in order to receive the healing powers from her different spiritual plant and tree Allies. In 2026 she completed these studies.

Mystery and her beloved Ra are the guardians to a beautiful sanctuary center Eden — Molino de Benizalte Sanctuary in Southern Spain, where she opens the temple doors, to all those, looking for healing, deep connectedness, remembrance and Love. You can have a look here.
