Retreats & Scheduling
Under the guidance of Indigenous Peruvian Shipibo healers, we combine plant medicine ceremony, supportive embodiment practices, and a unique integration program to empower each guest in their healing over the long term. Our decades of combined experience holding Ayahuasca ceremonies and doing medicine work allow you to experience in-depth healing in a safe and loving environment.
