Ayahuasca Retreats

Overview

Our Ayahuasca retreats are designed to give our guests the medicine, time, and space to progress on their own unique healing and awakening journey. Although we offer a range of activities during the retreat, our main goal is to serve the medicine in a safe and supportive environment to allow Ayahuasca the time and space to work with our guests. Our Maestros are also available during the retreat for private consultations to work with guests on specific issues.
