As part of your journey with us, you receive a full year of preparation, integration, and community support through our virtual Soltara Community Platform.
Our approach to healing is guided by the wisdom of our Shipibo healers, our team’s decades of experience (including work at top Ayahuasca centers in the Peruvian Amazon), feedback from our community, and what we have seen people need most. Because of this, we place strong emphasis on preparation and integration—helping guests prepare effectively and bring their work home in a practical way. We also work closely with clinical psychologists who have years of experience with the medicine and training in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy.
Our holistic support includes both on-site and off-site components. You can read more about what’s included in your retreat here. Below is a brief overview:
- A thorough intake process, in collaboration with therapists and medical advisors, to support safety and fit
- Extensive, holistic preparation and integration support created by Soltara plant medicine therapists
- An Ayahuasca diet guidebook to help prepare your body
- Access to our community platform through Nectara with one year of Soltara Plus membership, including:
- Community spaces for questions, sharing, and connection
- Retreat information and logistics
- Resources for physical, emotional, therapeutic, mental, spiritual, cultural, relational, creative, and travel-day support
- Monthly events, including free preparation and integration circles with a Soltara therapist
- Guided yoga, breathwork, and meditation experiences
- Online courses on topics such as trauma physiology, mindfulness, and ceremonial preparation
- A carefully vetted network of practitioners, coaches, and guides for individual support
- Access to our Entwined program (12 modules) for loved ones and family members of people entering plant medicine ceremony
- “The Hero’s Journal,” a customizable integration journal given on arrival to support reflection, intention-setting, ceremony processing, and building an integration plan. This framework has been reviewed by our clinical psychologist advisors and is designed to help you set yourself up for success.
- We also hold integration discussions during your stay using parts of the journal to help you create an actionable plan—from the beginning of your time at Soltara through your return to everyday life.
- Our retreat programming is built to help you immerse yourself in different healing modalities that you can take home with you (such as bodywork, meditation, and time in nature) so you can build habits that support your continued healing.
- After the retreat, we offer 3 months of weekly follow-up emails with resources and content to help you keep checking in with yourself and supporting your process.
- We also offer regular virtual group preparation and integration circles so guests can share in real time, ask questions, and stay connected before and after their retreat.
We are excited about this framework and the way it supports lasting change. We focus on empowering people to become their own healers—both during the retreat and long after it ends.
