This retreat is not a casual experience — but it is accessible, clearly held, and designed for those stepping into this work with sincerity and respect.
How the Days Are Held
The 3‑Day retreat follows a precise, intentional arc.
Because the container is shorter, the structure is clear and supportive — allowing participants to arrive, move through ceremony, and integrate without rushing or overwhelm.
Preparation, consent, pacing, and integration are prioritised at every stage.
The Experience
This retreat is held as a focused, intentional arc, rather than a long unfolding.
Across three days, ceremony, rest, and integration are woven together with care, creating a clear journey of arrival, deep inner work, and grounded return. The container is concise but well held, allowing participants to enter the work with clarity and leave with support.
Within this shorter timeframe, meaningful shifts can occur when the system feels safe, prepared, and supported. Many guests experience insight, emotional release, renewed clarity, and a reconnection to what feels essential.
For some, this retreat is a first step into ceremonial work. For others, it is a potent moment of recalibration — a clear threshold before moving forward again.
Ceremony and Indigenous Leadership
Ceremonies are guided by Huni Kuin Indigenous Txanas, who carry living lineages of prayer, song, and plant medicine rooted in deep relationship with the forest.
Their work is relational and responsive, guided by listening rather than performance. Sacred songs support each phase of the journey, offering cleansing, protection, grounding, and emotional integration.
Ceremony is held as a relationship that unfolds over time, rather than a single event.
Care, Safety, and Integration
Safety, consent, and ethical holding are central to how this retreat is offered.
The container is trauma‑informed and designed to support depth without overwhelm. Guests are never required to share and are always respected in their boundaries. Support is available throughout the retreat, with daily opportunities for one‑to‑one check‑ins.
Integration is woven through the entire journey, and continues after the retreat through post‑retreat integration calls.
Health, Body Care, and Wellbeing
There is a strong emphasis on physical health, regulation, and embodied wellbeing.
Optional, consensual body‑based therapies and holistic health support are available throughout the retreat, supporting balance, recovery, and nervous system regulation. Many guests leave feeling more grounded, present, and connected to their bodies.
𖦹 The Journey 𖦹
-
Guests arrive in the afternoon and are welcomed onto the land.
The opening hours focus on grounding, orientation, and preparation — allowing time to settle, connect, and arrive fully in the body. In the evening, the first ayahuasca ceremony is held, opening the journey with care, intention, and strong support.
Focus: crossing the threshold and beginning the inner journey.
-
The morning is spacious and restorative, allowing the body and nervous system to settle after the first ceremony.
Integration practices, nourishment, and quiet reflection support processing and grounding. In the evening, the second ayahuasca ceremony is held — allowing the work to deepen with greater clarity and trust.
Focus: deepening insight while remaining supported and regulated.
-
The final day is dedicated to integration and closure.
After rest and reflection, the group gathers to close the container intentionally — supporting meaning‑making, grounding, and preparation for returning home. Guests leave with guidance for ongoing integration and care beyond the retreat.
Focus: carrying the medicine forward with clarity and intention.

Important to Know
This retreat is short and potent.
While deeply supported, it does not offer the same extended integration time as our 8‑Day retreats. Participants are encouraged to arrive resourced, grounded, and committed to post‑retreat integration.
For those seeking a slower, more spacious journey, our longer retreats may be a better fit.
