This retreat is designed to bring healing to the body, mind and soul, as well as a study on the history, processes and magic of ayahuasca. Yoga and Pilates will be given on a daily basis. We will have sharing the following day after the ayahuasca rituals to work on issues that may come up to help integrate the experience and the process of transformation. Aura Soma will be used throughout the retreat to balance and to bring awareness to the subtle bodies as well as visualizations and meditations. Music classes will be given to open the fifth chakra and to enhance expression. The vegetarian diet is based on organic food mainly from our vegetable garden and will be 80% live food to help with the cleansing process. There will be four different ayahuasca rituals during the 10 days. The rituals counts with the band from our templo "Mae D'Agua", with life music throughout the rituals. The music is divine at our sessions, and most of them have been channelled by people from our community. Our community has been drinking ayahuasca together for many years, developing a beautiful spiritual work throughout the years. There are people very experienced to attend to the demands from our visitors during the rituals, through the process and through the entire retreat. There will be lots of free times to enjoy the nature; to bath in the river pools with white sand beaches, where we swim in potable water; to feel the energy of the crystals just bellow your feet and to connect deep with the earth, the cosmos and with your innermost as a whole.
