Maya Medicine & Womb Healing with Rosita Arvigo

What can the ancient healing traditions of the Maya teach us about restoring balance to the body, womb, and spirit?

In this profound episode, we speak with Rosita Arvigo, naprapathic doctor, master herbalist, and founder of Arvigo® Maya Abdominal Therapy. For over a decade, Rosita studied with Maya shaman Don Elijio Panti in Belize, becoming a key figure in the preservation and evolution of traditional Maya healing.

Together we explore the subtle science of abdominal therapy, plant-based healing, and the spiritual dimensions of wellbeing. Rosita shares the deeper energetics behind womb and digestive health, how to work with medicinal plants with respect and intention, and how emotional balance, prayer, and forgiveness serve as essential pillars of lasting health.

This episode bridges traditional knowledge with modern insight – offering a deeply embodied and soul-centered approach to holistic healing.

Topics we explore include:

  • The therapeutic power of abdominal massage for women’s health
  • How Maya healing supports prolapse, infertility, menstrual pain, and IBS
  • The role of spiritual “lustration baths” and cleansing rituals
  • Energetic intelligence in plants, prayer, and healing intention
  • Rosita’s apprenticeship with Don Elijio Panti in Belize
  • Food, forgiveness, and emotional equilibrium as pathways to wellness
  • The importance of preserving indigenous healing traditions

Rosita is the author of Rainforest Remedies and Sastun, and the founder of The Arvigo Institute. She has spent over 35 years living and working in Belize, protecting and sharing the traditional healing knowledge of the Maya with communities around the world.
