Oneness experienced.
I’ve been to Shangriballa for a 7 day Bufo retreat and it was fantastic. It’s hard to put into words what I experienced at the retreat or what a profound impact it has had on my life so I will not go there, however I’ll say that the impact was huge and very positive.

Lisa and Miguel were great hosts and I immediately felt at ease in their presence, which is important when undergoing such a personal journey. They were excellent at preparing us for the experience, and the care and love I felt before and after was out of this world. True genuine humans. I look forward to eventually coming back again!

One more note about the experience - if you feel called to it - definitely don’t hesitate and do it, though keep in mind that this is not the case for everyone. Bufo gives what you need, not what you want, so keep an open mind and be prepared to let go.

Much love!

Absolutely beyond all expectations!
I’m at a loss for words to express my gratitude to Lisa & Miguel for these 7 days. It was pure magic ✨

The opportunity to touch the "infinite" with something as finite as the mind is an experience that will always remain beyond words (you simply can't grasp it). The event’s organization, the safe space created by the entire team of organizers (including contributions from Cathrine and Julia), was at the highest possible level. And Lisa’s experience, her knowledge, insights, and the way she individually guided each participant smoothly throughout the entire workshop – this is something that cannot be priced in money – absolutely priceless!

Everything I’ve mentioned above is incredibly helpful for integrating everything we can experience with them afterward!

And finally, I cannot forget the entire group of participants (of which I had the honor to be a part)... wow, without a doubt, there wasn’t even a hint of coincidence here, as each of us was a key to unlocking something grand in the next person – I bow to you all, it was truly wonderful to be a part of this amazing spectacle called Life! 🫂💙

What a show...
What a cosmic joke...
Definitely 6 stars out of 5 possible :)

Life-changing retreat
I visited Shrangriballa in July 2024 for a 5-day Kambo and Bufo retreat.

Firstly, and most importantly, Lisa and Miguel are amazing people who serve medicines with great respect and knowledge. My experiences with Bufo were incredibly profound and Lisa's staged approach meant that I always felt in control of dosage and able to have beautiful and intense experiences. I always felt loved, supported and guided to be able to integrate my journeys.

Secondly, the venue is beautiful - a tiny village in a hidden valley miles from other habitations or roads. It is full of nature and provides a perfect setting for integration. My accommodation was very comfortable and excellent vegetarian food was provided at mealtimes.

Finally, outside of ceremonies, in the sharing circles, Lisa and Miguel facilitated the discussions with great skill providing gentle guidance and holding space without promoting any dogma.

I thoroughly recommend this retreat centre whether you are experiencing these medicines for the first time or, like me, are coming to go deeper and re-connect with the beauty of connection to consciousness.
