Bio 

Michael Tierno embarked on his transformative journey into expanded states in 2016. Initially a staunch rational materialist (physicalist), Tierno's perspective shifted profoundly after his first spiritual journey to Peru, where he experienced the power of ayahuasca. This pivotal moment cracked open his heart and led him to realize the interconnectedness of all life, the importance of living without fear, and the presence of divine energies within. Tierno's work is now dedicated to guiding others through expanded states modalities, leveraging his deep understanding of these practices to support individuals in breaking free from limiting patterns and connecting with their untapped wisdom.

Tierno offers a range of services, including guidance in expanded states,Men of Integrity retreats, a multi-modality men's retreat in North America and

Heart Sanctuary, an ayahuasca retreat center in Peru's Sacred Valley. 

His approach is deeply rooted in the belief that expanded states can facilitate major beneficial impacts on conditions like trauma, depression, PTSD, anxiety, and addictions, by connecting individuals with their divine essence and inducing mystical experiences.

Tierno shares insights on authenticity, vulnerability, and the dual paths to enlightenment through his website and personal writings, emphasizing the importance of embracing life's offerings and expanding personal boundaries. He advocates for emotional openness and authenticity as key components of a fulfilled life. According to Tierno, his work is a testament to the transformative power of expanded states and the potential for personal growth and healing they hold.
