Ayahuasca retreats includes one preparation session online
and two integration sessions online

This 8-day Ayahuasca Retreat offers a transformative experience, combining profound spiritual ceremonies with cultural exploration. Participants will undergo three Ayahuasca ceremonies, connect with the sacred cactus Huachuma or San Pedro, and honor the Pachamama (Mother Earth) and Guardian Spirits (Apus) through a dedicated offering ceremony.

 

The retreat also includes a visit to the iconic Machu Picchu, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where you'll witness the Incas' deep reverence for nature and their advanced understanding of astronomy, agriculture, and sacred plant medicine. You'll also explore the ancient Inca agricultural laboratory at Moray and the historic salt mines.

 

By participating in this retreat, you'll embark on a journey of self-discovery, delving into the depths of your being and connecting with the wisdom of your inner self. You'll experience profound cleansing, purification, and healing, facilitated by a therapeutic system that integrates traditional Amazonian medicine with modern psychospiritual techniques.

 

To enhance the transformative potential of the retreat, we utilize a sophisticated blinking light device. This device stimulates the pineal gland, increasing the production of endogenous DMT and inducing visionary states and altered states of consciousness.

.

The techniques of introspection and psychological integration employed in our Ayahuasca retreats draw upon the foundations of Humanistic and Transpersonal Psychology. These approaches delve into the profound depths of the human psyche, guiding individuals toward a deeper understanding of their existence and providing tools for personal growth and evolution.

 

Ayahuasca ceremonies are deeply rooted in the ancestral wisdom of the Amazonian cultures. For millennia, indigenous peoples have utilized this sacred plant medicine as a vital component of their traditional healing practices. Today, the knowledge and traditional use of ayahuasca, as practiced by Amazonian native communities, are recognized as a significant cultural heritage of the Peruvian nation.

 

The use of Huachuma or San Pedro, a powerful cactus, dates back to pre-Columbian times. This sacred plant has been employed in shamanic practices for thousands of years and continues to be utilized today. In our retreats, Huachuma complements the Ayahuasca ceremonies, serving as a tool for expanding consciousness and facilitating profound spiritual experiences.

 

 

The San Pedro cactus experience complements the Ayahuasca journey, offering a deeper understanding of these sacred plant medicines. It can facilitate psycho-emotional release and cultivate a profound sense of interconnectedness with nature and all beings.

 

The effects of San Pedro manifest on multiple levels. It heightens sensory perception, induces emotional catharsis, and can even lead to mystical experiences and a sense of oneness with the universe.

 

Throughout the retreat, consistent spiritual and psychological support is provided.

 

Our Ayahuasca Retreats are conducted in small groups of no more than eight participants, allowing for personalized attention and a supportive environment.
