This retreat is designed for those who wish to explore the sacred plant medicine of Ayahuasca while enjoying quiet, restorative moments away from the busy streets of Cusco. It offers an intense and memorable journey inward, inviting you to meet your spirituality more deeply and gain a clearer understanding of yourself and the world around you.
Set in a peaceful retreat center surrounded by beautiful lagoons and mountains, the experience supports cleansing, release, and renewal. Here, you can leave behind old burdens, negative past events, sickness, struggles, and emotional heaviness, and step into a stronger, more self-aware version of yourself. Throughout your stay, you will receive attentive care and guidance so you feel informed, comfortable, and supported.
The program includes a ceremony of unification of energies with coca leaf, a coca leaf reading ceremony, a Kuti cleansing ceremony, a Pachamama offering ceremony, and two Ayahuasca sessions.
