“Peak experiences are only as powerful as their integration”
A comprehensive 10-day program to revitalize your Body, Mind, and Spirit. Combine the profound consciousness-expanding work of Ayahuasca and San Pedro with Somatic Integration Workshop.
This retreat is designed as a holistic journey that works on three key levels.
BODY. The Wisdom of Embodiment.
The body is our first home and most loyal guide. It is the foundation, the place where healing becomes real. Through the body, we integrate the mind, heart, and spirit, not as separate paths, but as one living organism of transformation.
Anchoring in the body opens the door to deeper experiences, both during ceremonies and in daily life.
Movement is one of the oldest medicines. Authentic, intuitive movement dissolves what is stagnant, regulates the nervous system, and restores our natural rhythm. And when we move together, rhythm becomes a universal language, creating deep connection and collective healing.
Somatic practices expand our capacity. They teach us to stay with discomfort gently, bravely and build emotional resilience. Through the body, we learn to embrace more life, more truth, and more freedom within ourselves.
Self-love begins here, in this physical form. When we treat the body with kindness, the heart naturally opens, and the world becomes softer. How we relate to the body shapes the way we relate to all of life.
The body is not separate from the spiritual path; it is the path. A sacred ally, a compass, a bridge between the visible and the invisible. Returning to the body is returning home.
SPIRIT. Guided by Plants
Spirit is the subtle intelligence that moves beneath the surface of everything, the inner flame that remembers who we truly are. Plants are teachers of the invisible: they guide us beyond the boundaries of personality, beyond stories, beyond fear, into the vast territory of the soul.
During the retreat, we learn to listen to this language. Plant spirits work not in concepts, but in vibration, in dreams, visions, silence, and deep inner knowing. They reveal our energetic field, open forgotten paths of perception, and restore us to our primal essence.
In the presence of these ancient allies, the soul begins to reveal itself. We are reminded that we are not separate, lost, or broken. We are part of a living, breathing cosmos.
Plants help us reconnect with the sacred: with the magnitude of nature, the intelligence of life present in every breath.
Spirit is also humility, the understanding that healing is not something we force, but something we surrender to. It is trust in the invisible, in the guidance of the plants, in the path that is born from within. To drink the medicine is to open the heart to the mystery. And to listen to the plants is to allow the soul to awaken once more.
MIND. Consciousness and the Discipline of Practice
The mind is the tool that shapes how we perceive the world. When it is clear, it becomes a powerful ally; when lost, it becomes a prison. Transformation requires not only the depth of spirit and the wisdom of the body, but also the refinement of the mind.
The mind learns through practice, discipline, and knowledge.
Meditation, breathwork, journaling, integration talks, shadow work, and exploring the inner world help us recognize our patterns with precision.
The mind helps us navigate emotions, make conscious decisions, and live in alignment with our values. When trained, it becomes spacious and calm; when untrained, it reacts from old wounds.
Clarity of mind allows us to see the difference between fear and intuition, projection and truth, impulse and guidance. It builds bridges so that the visions from ceremonies become real changes in how we live. It helps translate healing into daily life, relationships, work, family, and mission. And when the mind harmonizes with the body and spirit, we become whole.

Maestro Miguel: An experienced healer with over four decades of practice. He began his journey in the Amazon at the age of 24, learning from the forest and its plants. He deeply knows traditional healing methods and the creation of icaros (power songs). Miguel has established special bonds with 42 plants, including Camalonga and Ayahuama. At 70 years old, he embodies the essence of true healing. His presence is synonymous with maturity, focus, sensitivity, and commitment.
Maestra Virginia: A talented Shipibo shaman with over 20 years of experience, working side-by-side with her husband, Miguel. Her energy is gentle and nurturing. During ceremonies, she creates a warm space, and her melodic icaros bring peace. Virginia is also a talented artisan who constantly deepens her knowledge through plant dietas.
Captain Blez: A psychologist and co-founder of the Psychonauta Foundation, who has been leading retreats since 2016, helping hundreds of people in expanding consciousness. He combines his psychological skills with the deep lessons of the plants (Ayahuasca, San Pedro). His goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where everyone feels seen and heard. As the “Captain,” he guides participants beyond the limits of the mind so they can become the captains of their own lives.
Sebastian: Born in Lima. Since 2014, he has been studying the Shipibo and Native American traditions. For Sebastian, music is a prayer; he leads transformative sound journeys, helping others “remember their own light.” He also serves as a local guide, connecting participants with authentic Peruvian culture and sacred sites.
Justyna X Hellström: An expert in somatic bodywork. Her approach focuses on building a deeper connection with the body and understanding its messages. Her sessions aim to release accumulated emotions and traumas that manifest as tension and stiffness, restoring spontaneity and inner peace. Justyna’s work includes specialized deep tissue massages focused on releasing stress-related pain (Classic), deepening breath and emotional expression (Spiritius), grounding and contact with Mother Earth (Gaia), and healing the center of vital energy and relationships (Hara and Womb Healing). Justyna supports the integration process after the ceremony, offering, among other things, teaching face and jaw self-massage, which helps with deep letting go and authentic expression
