Raised in a family that grew medicinal gardens and practiced herbal healing, Shine’s path with plants began in childhood. Early exposure to Native American ceremonies deepened his connection to spirit, nature, and ancestral ways of knowing. His lifelong love of surfing, ecology, movement, and indigenous wisdom traditions has taken him to over 15 countries, where he has studied Taoism, Yoga, Capoeira, and trained with shamans from the Americas, Africa, Hawaii, and Indonesia.
Through his invention of Peace Sticks, Shine developed methodologies for awakening life-force energy, reconnecting people to their true nature, community, and the Earth. He has led Peace Ceremonies worldwide, collaborating with local communities to create Eco Peace Centers.
His introduction to peyote brought him into the Native American Church, where he received the legal right to participate in sacred plant medicine ceremonies. Later, his first encounter with ayahuasca offered a profound vision of the human journey—from source, through birth and life, and back to source—preparing him to become a father. |
