In & Through: The Onaya Podcast

In eclectic conversations navigating psychedelic medicine, spirit entities and everything in between, Onaya welcomes wide-ranging guests including neuroscientists, musical healers and Shipibo curanderos.


Your main host is our founder Dr Simon Ruffell, a psychiatrist and research psychologist with a PhD in Amazonian ayahuasca and a student of Shipibo curanderismo.


Onaya is dedicated to bridging the gap between traditional indigenous knowledge and modern science, including a not-for-profit research arm that studies ayahuasca and other Amazonian plant medicine practices.


We offer one-to-one support, consultancy and accredited courses that combine shamanism and biomedical science to facilitate holistic individual and collective healing.
