One of the things that we have comprehended during our journey with Plant Medicines is that having a feeling of safety is one of the most important things. For this reason we created our home into a temple. A place where you can feel at home, where you can feel safe and loved and held during your stay with us! You are more then just a participant, you are part of our family when we welcome you here. Our place is completely surrounded by nature and privacy! Read More

Wow... what an experience!
Wow... what an experience!

If you're thinking about booking this retreat, do it. You won’t regret the decision.

I arrived at a time when I needed space from the world and to slow down. I felt emotionally drained, physically tired, carrying aches, pains, and a sense of being stuck. Within two days, the joint pain had gone and my mind felt clearer. By the fifth and final day, I felt fresher, lighter, calmer, more connected and grounded.

From the moment I arrived, I knew I’d made the right choice. The setting, the energy, the accommodation, everything felt warm, comfortable, and deeply relaxing.

Danilo, Ilse, their family, and Martin welcomed me with such warmth. Their presence is calm and genuine, and they make you feel part of something meaningful. Watching them live and work together as a family, with their two children and the two little dogs darting around, adds a grounding, human touch that makes the experience even more special.

The inner work is deep and challenging, but it’s held so gently and skillfully that you feel seen and safe to surrender. Each morning I woke up feeling refreshed, calm, and deeply connected.

And the food... wow. Every meal is prepared with so much love and attention. It’s not just delicious, it feels healing. Many of the ingredients are home-grown, and you can taste the vibrancy in every bite.

To summarise: if you’re reading this, something inside you is probably nudging you toward this experience. Trust that. Say yes to yourself. Give yourself the gift of a reset and come home to who you truly are.

With love,

A Home away from home
At From Gaia for You I was instantly welcomed into a home with genuine smiles and hugs. I was guided the whole time as well as felt safe and encouraged. The medicine work was difficult at times but Danilo, Ilse and Martin were supportive and encouraging which left me transformed with beautiful experiences.

This retreat is held with exceptional care, thoughtfulness, and deep authenticity. Every aspect, from the ceremonies and music (they’re incredibly talented), to the food and overall setting and atmosphere is beautifully and intentionally crafted. Danilo and his team take a truly personal approach, beginning with prep calls and continuing with genuine, intuitive support throughout the entire experience and integration after the retreat. Their presence as a family, and their deep intuitive guidance created a space that felt both sacred and safe. I would highly recommend this retreat to anyone seeking healing, self-discovery, or a deeper connection to the sacred. Especially as a first timer like myself.

A Journey Back to Myself – Forever Grateful
From the moment I arrived at the retreat,I felt held, supported, and completely safe. It was as if something deep within me knew I was exactly where I needed to be.
Ilse, Danilo, and Martin are not just facilitators-they are truly beautiful souls who pour their hearts and love into every detail of this journey. Their presence, wisdom, and care created an environment of trust and healing that I will never forget.
The ceremonies were truly magical. Sure at times they brought discomfort and pain-but isn’t it what healing is exactly about? The release and deep sense of joy that followed each session are truly beyond words. And the music… wow. It wasn’t just heard-it was felt in every cell of my body. It carried me through the experience with such deep emotional resonance.
The food was another gift-nourishing, delicious, and prepared with love.
The surroundings are beautiful-in the middle of nature,and next to the house there is a soothing little river,ideal spot to meditate and reflect. I also loved my mornings in front of the house just listening to nature waking up.
I arrived on this retreat not really knowing what I was looking for, and what I found was MYSELF. I feel more connected than ever: to my Inner Self, to others, to the Universe, to nature. There is a new sense of peace, beauty, and gratitude in my heart that I carry with me now.
Thank you so much to the entire team-keep shining your light! You are doing something truly sacred. ❤️❤️❤️ Read More

Wonderful Experience
Danillo and Ilse, as well as Martin, Dario, Gaia, Stella, and the pups create a warm, welcoming, and safe space in their home. Each session is guided with a tremendous amount of thought and care; the setting, the music (they're wonderful musicians), the food -- everything -- is beautifully put together. They take a personal, bespoke approach to each person which starts with prep calls with Danilo and goes through the last day of the retreat. They're also very open and receptive to feedback as the retreat unfolds to ensure that you get the best experience possible. I really can't recommend this experience enough to anyone looking to explore themselves, seeking healing, or just trying to connect with the sacred and others over a beautiful and also intense five days. Good stuff! Read More
