REPLANT YOUR SPIRIT - $5550

Ayahuasca Healing Empowerment Course

Held at the Riosbo Ayahuasca Retreat Center, this four-week healing journey is designed for those ready to take an active role in their own transformation. The program includes 11 ayahuasca ceremonies guided by a Shipibo maestro, along with a sacred plant dieta with either Noya Rao or Bobinsana.

After many years of refining this approach, the course has been shaped around a simple truth: deeper participation can lead to deeper healing. Participants are introduced to the practices and teachings of working with plant spirits, supporting them in becoming their own healer.

Alongside the ceremonies, the retreat offers personalized treatments and integrative practices that help cleanse and purify the mind, body, and spirit. By bringing together ancestral Shipibo tradition and modern holistic care, the experience is intended to support profound, lasting healing.

The Future of Healing is Ancient

Our experiences influence the way we move through the world. By connecting with spirit guides and plant allies, remembering our true nature, and embracing self-love and forgiveness, we create the conditions for well-being to grow. This is the heart of the Healing Empowerment Course.

Throughout the program, participants receive medicinal plant treatments from the Shipibo healing tradition under the guidance of Shipibo curandero Don Ronor. He also shares essential teachings, including the use of mapachos, agua florida, healing songs known as icaros, the soplando technique, and recipes for specific plant-based remedies.

Assistant healers explain each treatment, its purpose, and its effects, while also leading integrative practices that support the ayahuasca ceremonies. The result is a complete holistic healing experience, combined with in-depth education in Shipibo plant medicine, personal health, and happiness.

Holistic Healing

Ayahuasca ceremonies are used to help release deep-seated trauma, stored emotion, and negative energy. A range of natural treatments works to cleanse the digestive, circulatory, respiratory, nervous, and immune systems. Individualized care addresses specific concerns, while integrative practices offer guidance toward greater balance and well-being.

Ancestral Wisdom

Workshops and discussions immerse participants in the healing traditions of the Shipibo. Guests learn the core tools used by a Shipibo ayahuasca curandero, and powerful icaros are studied and sung in ceremony, strengthening the connection to the experience and inviting positive energy into both the ayahuasca and dieta process.

Shipibo Plant Dieta

The opportunity to build a relationship with the spirit of either Noya Rao or Bobinsana is considered a true honor. With guidance from the Shipibo curandero, participants deepen this connection and develop lasting bonds of healing and intuition. The treatments, knowledge, and tools gained during the course are meant to leave each person feeling empowered.

Regain Your Natural Instincts

Each day is supported by plant treatments, therapies, workshops, and discussions on Shipibo healing and integrative practices. Over four weeks, with 11 ayahuasca ceremonies and a wide range of remedies, participants move through a powerful process of self-discovery and deep healing.

By the end of the course, they return home renewed, with greater clarity and strength to take responsibility for their health and life.
