4 Day Retreats

Roots of Rebirth - 4 Day Retreat

The Roots of Rebirth is an immersive four-day retreat designed for those who feel the call to go deeper into their personal healing journey. ​

This retreat is not merely a psychedelic experience, it is a rite of passage that guides you through the sacred cycles of death and rebirth, allowing you to shed old layers, heal wounds, and emerge into a new chapter of your life with clarity, purpose, and vitality.

Through the sacred plant medicines of Divine Grandmother, Hapé (optional) and Niños Santos, you will be guided through a journey of transformation that mirrors the natural cycles of life: descent, void, and ascent. The experience unfolds with three ceremonies, each designed to progressively peel back the layers of your old self and illuminate the path to your true essence.

The Descent

The first step of your journey begins with the descent into the depths of your soul. This is the phase of deep unraveling, where you confront the shadows of your past – old wounds, limiting beliefs, and attachments that no longer serve you. In the embrace of the medicine, you are invited to surrender and release all that you’ve been holding onto, allowing the shadows to rise to the surface and be met with understanding, compassion, and release. This is the death of the old you, making space for the new to emerge.

The Void

After the descent, you enter the sacred void: a space of stillness, reflection, and integration. Here, you are held in the space of silence and clarity, allowing you to rest in the emptiness between what was and what is to come. This is a moment of pure potential, a time to reflect on the wisdom gained from the journey and begin to receive the new insights and guidance that will shape your path forward.

The Ascent

From the void, you rise. The ascent is the moment of rebirth: the emergence of a clearer, lighter, and more aligned self. With renewed energy and purpose, you step forward into the world with a deeper sense of connection and understanding. The medicine now guides you to your next steps, offering clarity and insight as you integrate the transformation into your life.

This retreat is designed for those who feel called to dive deeper, to confront the depths of their being, and to allow the process of death and rebirth to unfold in a safe and supportive environment.​

 It is for those who are ready to shed old layers, let go of limiting beliefs, and emerge as the highest version of themselves.

This is not about escaping the world; it’s about returning to the truth of who you are, connecting deeply with your soul, and stepping into a life that is in alignment with your truest purpose. The Roots of Rebirth is an invitation to go beyond your limits, to meet your fears, and to leave behind the stories that no longer serve you. This retreat offers you the space to receive guidance from the medicine, honor the process of transformation, and embrace the infinite potential within you.

In this sacred container, the ceremonies are held with deep reverence and intentionality, ensuring that every aspect of the retreat supports your journey of transformation. 

The path is yours to walk, but you are never alone. With the support of our facilitators, your fellow participants, and the wisdom of the plants, you will be supporting in finding your way back to yourself - stronger, clearer, and ready to create the life you’ve always dreamed of.

An Intimate Container

We believe that true healing happens in deep, intentional connection. By keeping our retreat groups small, we create a space where every participant is truly seen, heard, and supported. This allows for greater vulnerability, authenticity, and a more personalized approach to your healing journey.

Each retreat is intimately designed, with group sizes limited to 13 participants to maintain a safe and sacred container. We trust that those meant to sit together will find their way here, and time and time again, we witness the profound wisdom that emerges from these divinely aligned groups. The shared journey becomes part of the medicine itself—offering insights, reflections, and a deep sense of belonging.

Accommodations

Our 4 day retreat takes place in private homes that offer privacy, access to nature, and ample space to support your journey. These spaces are intentionally chosen to create a safe, comfortable, and grounded environment for deep healing. Participants have the option to sleep on their mat in the ceremony space or in an assigned bed within a shared bedroom for an additional fee. For those desiring more privacy, private room options may be available upon request. You are also welcome to bring your own tent, RV, or van at no extra charge. While all of your basic needs will be provided for, this is not a luxury retreat—our focus is on healing, connection, and transformation, not excess. We strive to keep these experiences accessible while ensuring a clean, safe, and supportive space for all participants.
Food
All meals are lovingly prepared by our team of facilitators, with care, intention, and adherence to the Ayahuasca dieta. Our food is organic, plant-based, and designed to nourish both body and spirit throughout your journey. If you have any allergies or dietary restrictions, please let us know on your intake form so we can accommodate your needs.
