(Loving greetings, brothers and sisters)
Hampiq is a Quechua word that means healer; a man or woman of medicine.
It represents the third level of consciousness out of 9 levels that a human being must walk through in the path of the evolution of consciousness.
Pisac is a town where you will find many Hampiq, or facilitators of master plants and different types of therapies.
In the Andean world, being a Hampiq is a recognition given to those who embody certain qualities:
- Their path has led them to heal themselves. You cannot heal others if you have not healed yourself first.
- They honor the lineage that gave them the knowledge of their medicine — their teachers, guides, and spiritual path — and they have at least 4 years of practice.
- They practice with responsibility and ethics. They offer medicine in appropriate spaces, honoring the process and the trust of those who seek them.
- They have social awareness: they actively contribute to the wellbeing of the local community and biodiversity. They are not extractivist.
