Upcoming Ceremonies

What is Ayahuasca or Yagé ?

 

Ayahuasca, also known as Yagé, is used for various purposes, including spirituality, self-connection, healing, and consciousness expansion. This ancient tradition, practiced in the Amazon and across South America, is often called ‘the mirror of your consciousness.’ The term ‘Ayahuasca’ has a special meaning: ‘Aya’ means soul, and ‘huasca’ means vine. In an Ayahuasca Ceremony, it is typically prepared with chacruna (Psychotria viridis) to enhance absorption.

The main component, DMT (dimethyltryptamine), activates the pineal gland, fostering new mental connections, deep awareness, and a stronger connection to oneself and the environment.

What Makes Our Ayahuasca Retreat Unique?

 

  • Our Safe Ayahuasca Retreat is led and supported by an authorized native shaman from the Amazon (Los Pastos community). Most retreats in Medellín work with ayahuasqueros, not true shamans or taitas, which sets us apart as one of the best Ayahuasca retreat in Colombia.

 

  • Our maloca is open, allowing you to sit by the fire or be surrounded by nature, providing a unique setting for your Ayahuasca Healing Retreat.

 

  • For your safety, you will always be supervised by our staff, ensuring that your Ayahuasca ceremony  is both safe and transformative.

 

  • In our ayahuasca ceremonies the medicine is stronger than regular yagé. Most participants feel they’ve found what they were seeking after just two day ceremonies. We believe patients don’t require 4, 5, 8, or more ceremonies for healing. Often, this is a financial strategy by others. A genuine experience needs good medicine and an authentic shaman.

 

  • We’ve been in this same location for over 25 years (while most retreats in Medellín were created 2 or 3 years ago and lack authenticity). Our shaman is highly respected by the national indigenous community ( Los Pastos community, Putumayo-Colombia, and we can show you official credentials, making this one of the best Ayahuasca Retreats in Colombia in terms of both quality and convenience.

 

What Makes Our Ayahuasca Retreat Unique?

 

  • You’ll also be supervised by a Western doctor who will review previous conditions, possible medication interactions, and any illnesses the patient may have, providing oversight during most ceremonies.

 

  • All our medicine (yagé) is prepared here at our retreat using leaves (Chacruna) and trunks (Ayahuasca) brought directly from the Amazon (Putumayo) by our genuine shaman, using his indigenous recipe. This process takes 8 days of preparation. Unlike many other retreats that buy pre-made Ayahuasca (yagé) with unclear origins, our Ayahuasca Healing Retreat ensures that our medicine is safe and authentically sourced.

 

  • We offer pick-up and drop-off services directly from your home in our private shuttle for added safety and comfort.

What Can You Expect from Our Experience?

 

  • We are a professional and experienced group with over 25 years of expertise in the healing art of Ayahuasca. Our Ayahuasca Healing Retreat stands out as one of the Best Ayahuasca Retreat in Colombia, offering a safe and transformative journey for those seeking personal growth and spiritual connection. Our primary goal is for participants to reach higher levels of consciousness, self-awareness, wisdom, and spirituality. We view Ayahuasca as a sacred medicine that serves as a mirror to your consciousness, guiding you toward deeper healing. We are proud to offer a Safe Ayahuasca experience where our core values of humility, compassion, and love are at the heart of every Ayahuasca retreat experience.

 

  • From the moment you contact us via WhatsApp or email, we provide full support, including guidance on diet and potential interactions with any existing medical conditions or medications. Our participants have direct access to our Western doctor through WhatsApp, ensuring a Safe Ayahuasca Retreat at all times. Typically, these instructions are given 1-2 weeks before the Ayahuasca Ceremony.

 

  • The Ayahuasca Ceremony  takes place in Guarne, a forested area just 38 kilometers (45 minutes) from Medellín, making it a convenient option for those who prefer not to travel to the jungle. On the day of the experience, our shuttle service can pick you up at your home at 7:30 am (for an extra $10). You’ll arrive at our Ayahuasca retreat around 8:15 am, where our shaman will welcome you and provide an introduction to Ayahuasca and its spiritual and consciousness-enhancing effects. Participants will have the chance to ask questions and clarify any doubts about the experience. Alternatively, we can arrange pickup from a specific location in Medellín if preferred.

 

  •  

    We then, prepare the space ,(bunkbed) where you will experience the Ayahuasca Healing Experience. The first cup of Ayahuasca is served at 9:15 am, with a second optional cup at 11:30 am for those who haven’t fully connected or feel the experience is superficial. Our support staff and shaman will supervise participants throughout the entire Ayahuasca Ceremony. The effects of the medicine last between 4 and 8 hours, depending on the participant’s sensitivity, and how many shots did you take.

 

  •  

    Afterward, we facilitate an integration session, allowing participants to reflect and ask questions. You will be offered a broth (optional) to replenish fluids and electrolytes. Once you feel ready, a spiritual closure will take place with a plant called guaira, used to cleanse energy and close spiritual channels, enhancing the safety and spiritual depth of our Safe Ayahuasca Retreat.

 

 

  • In the evening, we gather around a bonfire for further integration. A light meal is served at 7:00 pm, after which you are free to rest at your own pace, completing the holistic experience offered by our Ayahuasca retreat.

 

What Can You Expect from Our Experience?

( Second Day )

 

  • On the second day of our Ayahuasca Healing Retreat, the Ceremony begins around 8:00 pm with the first cup of Ayahuasca, following a similar process to the first day. This Ayahuasca retreat is recommended for those with deep emotional issues, significant trauma, or a desire to deepen their spiritual journey. By participating in this experience, you are choosing one of the best Ayahuasca lifechanging experience for your self, with a focus on safety, healing, and authentic guidance.

 

 

  • After the experience, we return to Medellín around 5 or 6 pm. Please note that our Yagé is stronger than that used in many other retreats, and usually, two days of ceremony are enough for a transformative experience in our Retreat.

 

  •  

    Additionally, if you wish, you’ll have the option to experience rape or curanga, sacred seed plants from the Amazon known for your spiritual and consciousness-enhancing effects. This is an optional addition that complements our Healing center for a deeper connection to Amazonian wisdom.
