General admission

<p>Someone you know recently said with an Austrian accent that "You should always have a Plan" and we do agree when it comes to Drawing, Painting or any Creative activity. Here is one plan we created for you.</p>
<ol>
<li>You smile, get really excited and look for all Art materials that you thought had gone and set yourself up making sure the Floor is kept protected, preferably not too far from a TV screen that you could HDMI connect to your PC for the class so you may use an easel for example.</li>
<li>you book a class here on Cademy and write it down on your Diary after ordering bits you need online.</li>
<li>The days has come, you've installed zoom on your PC, connected the Tele to it, got your equipment ready, kettle nearby and cookies (OH no! sorry not those) and had a look at our latest drawings captured at classes at http://e.pc.cd/r7WotalK or on Google to feel inspired/create a plan. Then you'll connect at 6.25pm so we can let you in. Classes usually start at 6.32pm but you can drop in at anytime even 5 mins before the end.</li>
<li>The Teacher will tell you what he/she would do, look at, keep an eye on or the opposite the don'ts. Trying to get you to add tools to your Artist tool box that you will use more and more, quicklier and more automatically so you can develop other sides of your Art.</li>
<li>Maybe your Wifi goes bad, you received a job call or you just forgot, oh no! In this case you have nothing to worry about as you now know that you can draw at anytime from the recording.</li>
<li>You've drawn for 2 to 3 hours (as occasionally we get a new life model who want to audition at the end for an hour), you feel amazing, you forgot Everything so you'll then mingle with other similar minded participants showing your drawings and getting feedback and tips. Some days you may want to rush out or not show any drawings and all is fine.</li>
<li>You want more and discovered that what you've paid for one class could be the same for a all Month (15 to 18 classes) and so you email us to find out more at eukart at msn.com.</li>
<li>You feel more and more part of a Local community and heard that we put everyone together on the Art Map such ass classes, models, Art teachers, Artists, and more and because you filled your Registration form here we'll help you appear on it.</li>
<li>You tell friends, family, Kids (as we also have classes for them), Parents, grand Parents, anyone who loves this hobby or needs one. If you are good at Social Networking then we have a great incentive for you. If anyone ask you what, who we are simply say that we are the People who went mad 18 years ago, and voluntarily did the impossible of saving Life Drawing Classes from extinction, Went on Tele and Radio with celebs many times, brought classes to 400 locations where no one has Drawn before from Parks, Offices, Squats, Empty buildings, etc, and don't charge anything for their help and guidance since 2003. Simply People living and sharing their Passion now with the entire World.</li>

Creative Practice

Master plant tinctures are sacred, natural extracts derived from powerful Amazonian plants, each carrying unique healing properties. 

Used traditionally in shamanic practices, these tinctures provide a gentle, yet profound way to heal, release emotional blockages, and restore physical vitality. 

When you purchase these tinctures, you're contributing to the preservation of indigenous traditions as the Medicine Woman who makes them donates 50% of the proceeds to the Shipibo community in Iquitos, the true guardians of these medicines. 

The medicine women who makes them, fasts for 2 days before preparing them to ensure there is no external energy influencing the tinctures. The tinctures are also buried with the plant they are made from for 2 weeks to help strengthen their essence. 

Instructions:
1. Dosage & Absorption
Empty Stomach for Optimal Absorption: Take your tincture on an empty stomach, ideally at least 30 minutes before eating or 2 hours after your last meal. This enhances absorption and allows the plant’s energy to work more directly.
Sublingual Method (Under the Tongue): Place the recommended number of drops directly under your tongue and hold them there for about 1-2 minutes before swallowing. This method allows the plant’s essence to enter your bloodstream more quickly and efficiently.
Swallowing & Following with Water: If needed, you can follow with a sip of water or herbal tea, but avoid strong flavours that might interfere with the plant’s subtle energy.
2. Dietary Considerations
Avoid heavy, overly processed, or highly stimulating foods (e.g., caffeine, sugar, alcohol, or spicy foods) before and after taking the tincture, as they may interfere with the plant’s effects.
Simple, grounding meals such as lightly cooked vegetables, whole grains, and herbal teas, support a clearer connection to the plant.
If fasting or eating lightly while working with the tincture, listen to your body’s signals and adjust as needed.
3. Setting an Intention
Focused Approach: Working with one plant tincture for 1-2 weeks with a clear intention allows for a deeper relationship with the plant’s wisdom. Reflect on what you’re calling in whether it’s emotional healing, clarity, protection, or insight.
Intuitive Use: While structured use can be powerful, you can also work with the tincture as needed, trusting your intuition to guide you. It is safe for daily use if you feel called to it.
Journaling & Reflection: Keeping a small journal can help you track any insights, shifts, or emotions that arise during your work with the plant.
4. Adapting the Experience to You
There’s no rigid rule - some people benefit from structured, intentional work, while others find a more fluid, intuitive approach works best.
Pay attention to how your body, emotions, and energy respond. If you feel resistance or discomfort, pause and reflect on what the plant might be showing you.
Trust your own process and know that the relationship with plant medicine is deeply personal.
By approaching master plant tinctures with respect, presence, and openness, you can allow their wisdom to guide you in a way that best serves your journey. 🌿✨

AVAILABLE TINCTURES: 
(NB: This is the up to date list and has changed since last year - no other tinctures are available at present.) 

Noya Rao - Noya Rao, known as the Tree of Light or Flying Tree, is a revered master plant that guides us toward balance, harmony, and profound self-awareness. It illuminates the path to inner truth, helping us gain clarity, insight, and a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us. By working with this plant, we can develop a more organised and focused mind, sharpening our ability to discern what is real versus what is illusion. Noya Rao is known to activate intuitive capacities, expanding our awareness beyond habitual patterns and revealing unconscious assumptions that shape our perceptions of reality. By bringing these hidden beliefs to light, it empowers us to release limiting perspectives, build courage, and shift our worldview. This process of self-discovery is often accompanied by a sense of lightness, mental sharpness, and alignment with our highest truth. On a spiritual level, Noya Rao is often associated with dreamwork, lucid visioning, and profound states of meditation. It is said to help practitioners connect with the higher realms of consciousness, serving as a bridge between the material and spiritual worlds. By working with this master plant, we are invited to step into a state of greater alignment, authenticity, and wisdom, deepening our journey of transformation.
Chullachaqui - Cordia alliodora
Chullachaqui is a powerful plant ally with deep spiritual intelligence, offering a direct connection to the wisdom of the ancient forest. It is regarded as a guardian and protector, working as a bridge between human consciousness and the vast network of master plant spirits. This great tree is known for its ability to ground and stabilise the mind, making it particularly beneficial for those who experience anxiety, mental restlessness, or a sense of disconnection. Chullachaqui's energy brings the body into deep union with nature, helping to root scattered thoughts and emotions so that we can feel more centered, clear, and present. By settling the nervous system, it allows for a profound sense of calm and balance. Spiritually, Chullachaqui is said to open doorways to the wisdom of other master plants, making it a valuable ally for those working deeply with plant medicine. It enhances receptivity to the teachings of the forest and allows for a more harmonious exchange of knowledge between the plant world and the human spirit.
