About Us
At Avatar Apothecary, we are devoted to honoring the Earth, the ancient traditions, and the Indigenous lineages that have safeguarded the balance of life for millennia.
Our work is rooted in reciprocity. We believe that giving back is not optional—it is essential to walking this path with integrity. We do this through fair-trade relationships with Indigenous conservationists, farmers, and artisans, and through continued investment in regenerative projects such as native plant gardens, soil restoration, and reforestation in the heart of the Amazon.
A portion of all profits supports the empowerment of Indigenous families who are actively preserving their cultures, protecting their homelands, and carrying forward the wisdom of their ancestors.
Sustainability is no longer enough—we are here to co-create a regenerative future. One that nourishes the land, restores sacred balance, and reflects a deeper gratitude for the abundance we receive each day.
To walk in reciprocity is to remember that everything we eat, drink, breathe, and become is gifted to us through our living Earth. Her body is our body. Her beauty, a reflection of our own. Even when forgotten or mistreated, she continues to offer life.
It is time to remember: through her, we are forever connected to the divine essence of creation. By supporting her growth, she supports ours.
Our Mission
At Avatar Apothecary, our vision is to support humanity during this time of collective awakening. We are dedicated to sharing sacred plant medicines and timeless wisdom from mother earth, and our spirit guides and guardians. Our ultimate goal is to create a world where every individual has the opportunity to reconnect with the path of their soul. We firmly believe that everything in existence is alive and interconnected, and we honor the sacredness of our bodies as a temple for spirit. Recognizing the divine frequency that connects all living beings throughout time and space, we understand that the Divine Spirit resonates within every aspect of nature – from mountains to grains of sand, plants to animals, wind to rain, soil to fire. They all harmonize to guide us towards healing, oneness, and divinity. It is our heartfelt prayer that every human on this sacred earth may recognize the truth of our personal and collective essence, empowering us to walk and live in unity and sacred prayer together.
In our envisioned world, we can once again come together in ceremony, as a means of resolving conflicts among all races, genders, cultures, and species – for the betterment and evolution of all.
Our Vision
At Avatar Apothecary, our vision is to support humanity through this time of collective remembrance and awakening. We are devoted to sharing sacred plant wisdom and earth-honoring practices guided by spirit, tradition, and reverence for all of life.
We envision a world in which each soul has the opportunity to realign with their inner truth—to walk in harmony with nature, spirit, and community. We honor the body as a living temple, a vessel for divine consciousness, and believe that every expression of life is part of one great interconnected whole.
From mountains to grains of sand, from the breath of the wind to the pulse of fire, all of nature speaks the language of the sacred. The spirit of creation lives within everything and reminds us, when we listen, that we belong.
It is our prayer that each human remembers their origin, their light, their innate connection to the Divine, and their gift as a creator. Through devotion, ceremony, conscious living, & taking radical responsibility for our own part, we believe it is possible to restore unity—not only among people, but between species, cultures, and the Earth herself, & it all starts from within.
Together, we walk toward a world guided by prayer, reciprocity, and the timeless wisdom of the living world.
Letter From Brother Bear
Greetings,
At Avatar Apothecary, our vision is rooted in remembrance—of our connection to the Earth, to spirit, and to the sacred traditions that have guided humanity for generations.
Throughout our journey, we’ve been blessed to learn from revered elders, Indigenous wisdom keepers, and masterful plant stewards across the Americas. Their teachings have illuminated the way, reminding us that the plants are not simply remedies—they are ancient allies, here to guide us home to the truth of who we are.
In today’s world of overstimulation, spiritual disconnection, and collective imbalance, the gentle voices of these sacred plants—and the traditions that honor them—are more important than ever. We believe their wisdom, when honored & implemented consistently, has the power to restore harmony between humanity and the living world.
And yet, the Amazon—the Earth’s greatest reservoir of plant intelligence—is under threat. Destructive industries continue to endanger its ecosystems and the Indigenous communities who have protected this sacred land for millennia.
Through our offerings, we strive to honor and preserve this wisdom—not only by supporting local conservation and reforestation, but by encouraging a deeper, more intentional relationship with nature itself, no matter where you are in the world. Every purchase, every prayer, every act of reverence is part of a greater remembering, & your part not only matters, but is something so sacred.
We believe that everyone on this earth has a deep innate desire to serve the good of all on this planet. To serve the good of all is to come into wholeness within yourself.
Thank you for walking this path with us. Your presence here matters.
In devotion and respect,
– Brother Bear

Brother Bear’s Bio
William “Brown” Koroskenyi, known to many as Brother Bear, is an initiated maestro curandero and sacred wisdom keeper. He carries a deep lineage rooted in Amazonian curanderismo—the ancestral art of healing through prayer, plants, and communion with the spirit of nature.
For over a decade, Brother Bear lived immersed in the heart of the Peruvian Amazon, where he studied and served alongside Indigenous curanderos, elders, and plant teachers. With the support of his wife and Indigenous mentors, he underwent over 2 yrs of traditional plant dietas, spending months in isolation at a time, in prayer, and in direct relationship with the forest.
Through this apprenticeship, he received teachings both spoken and unspoken—learning to recognize the spirit within all things. Guided by dreams, visions, and rigorous protocols, he was entrusted with sacred knowledge on how to steward and prepare sacred plant remedies with integrity and reverence. These teachings awakened within him a deeper understanding of the invisible world and humanity’s place within the great web of life.
Brother Bear’s work is rooted in the understanding that all of nature is alive, spirit is ever-present, and that we each carry a frequency capable of harmonizing with all that is. His path is not simply to offer remedies—but to remind us of our capacity to listen, remember, and return to sacred relationship with the living world.
As co-founder of Avatar Apothecary, spiritual director of The Avatar Centre in Peru, & Minister at Temple of The Living Medicine, Brother Bear continues to share the wisdom of the forest through ceremony, mentorship, and sacred formulations created in prayer. Alongside his wife, he has channeled songs, rituals, and teachings that elevate the frequency of those walking the path of remembrance.
He teaches that the spirit of the plants continues to live within their essence, long after harvest—that water holds memory, and that the heart, when attuned, becomes a vessel for divine instruction.
Through his presence, prayers, and offerings, Brother Bear invites you into a deeper rhythm of devotion, self-inquiry, and reconnection with the spirit of life itself. His mission is one of service: to awaken hearts, restore harmony, and walk beside others on the sacred journey back home.
