About this trip
EVOLUTIONARY HEALING AND LIFE-CHANGING RETREATS
Beautiful Soul! Your presence is needed at this time. And when we say your presence, we mean all of you.
It’s time to free yourself by sharing your divine being-ness with the world and create connection with people who desire to be heard, felt, and seen.
Its time to be as raw, real, and authentic on your path.
Recognizing your issues, strengths, and weaknesses is the first step to wholeness and can provide invaluable guidance while on the path to living the life of your dreams.
Working with Plant Medicine is an opportunity to get to the core of what it means to be You, to discover why you’re here, what the next step for you is.
This is not for everyone.
But IF….
You feel like you’ve always known that there was something “more” to Life, some truth that resonates deep in your Soul, but you just can’t put your finger on it….
You are ready to find your deeper purpose in life, to make the world a better place for future generations…
You have read the books, been to seminars, therapy, and feel like something else is missing….
You never settle for the status quo, and you are ready to radically transform and heal your life…
Then Keep Reading…
Imagine being guided by your ancestors, your guides, experiencing unconditional Love and Healing.
This Is Your Chance….
When you sit with plant medicine there are so many shifts that happen.
*You awaken to a deeper part of yourself.
*You have a greater understanding of the meaning of your life.
*You wake up to the understanding that you must stop resisting life and you must learn to start flowing with it if you want to enjoy it.
*You start recognizing that life does not happen to you, it happens through you. So that you grow, learn and evolve. So that you discover who you are.
*You tune into the reality that life is a game, it is a pure learning process and that any situation that we “label” as a problem is only a necessary experience to grow and evolve.
*You desire to stop seeing yourself as a victim to become the owner and creator of your life. Because therein lies your power, your responsibility and your freedom.
*You desire to be more authentic, to be who you really are and you stop playing a role influenced by what society, your family environment or your limiting beliefs have instilled in you.
*You start recognizing the infinite potential that is in you, beyond the limitations of your mind.
If you feel the calling and are ready to go on this life changing journey...Join us at our upcoming retreat in Tulum, MX.
WHAT IS AN AYAHUASCA RETREAT?
It’s a profound opportunity to work closely in a safe container with an experienced Shaman through a guided journey into another dimension.
The natural healing power of Ayahuasca and other medicinal plants helps retreat participants to reconnect back to nature and their true selves.
Ayahuasca is a wholly natural, non-toxic plant that takes you to the core of your true self. Rather than mask it, it reveals; rather than being able to escape, it takes you by the hand and into your core. Ayahuasca has no residual effects other than pushing you to continue to grow and evolve. It cannot hurt, damage, or alter anything in your body; it simply gives you greater awareness.
All that’s required on your part is a sincere desire to heal/change, the courage to look at yourself, and the desire to follow through on your new perceptions and learnings.
Ayahuasca is a brew consisting of the Ayahuasca vine and the leaves of the Chacruna plant. It is the blend most often used in Peru. The leaves of the Chacruna plant contain DMT and the DMT is what generates the visions and the colors we experience when taking Ayahuasca.
The Ayahuasca vine, however, is what takes us deeply within and promotes the personal work for which the plant is famous for, and contains a substance that allows the DMT free reign in the body.
DMT is a naturally occurring substance in common foodstuffs such as oranges. Typically our stomachs generate an enzyme that neutralizes the DMT in the food we eat. The Ayahuasca vine emits a substance that neutralizes that enzyme and allows it to work. DMT is also a naturally occurring substance in our own bodies. It is emitted by the pineal gland in direct proportion to our level of consciousness. DMT in the body is needed for lucid dreaming, for example, so it too promotes spiritual growth and healing.
According to current scientific research, Ayahuasca can boost your mood, improve mindfulness, treat depression, anxiety, stress, and addiction disorders. It also protects brain cells and can stimulate neural cell growth.
Working with the medicine in a retreat setting improves your relationship with others. You develop empathy and love for others, are able to work through any triggers, support others in that space of a retreat container and many people have experienced an overall improvement in their relationship with others.
Working in community with others is critical because they are often an important source of social connection and give you a sense of belonging.
In the retreat space you are able to be in a supportive group that is helping each other cope with difficult challenges, you create a stronger bond, are able to solve problems in a group and more importantly you celebrate each other’s growth and healing.
