Beata Alfoldi

I just returned home from the Aug 6-11 huachuma intensive and I have to say that it was the best plant medicine retreat I have been on so far. Everything from the retreat grounds, the wonderful vegetarian food, the people and the tezmezcal made this experience a complete landscape for healing. Beata and Fred were such a perfect blend of clinical, traditional knowledge mixed with ancient, shamanic knowledge which made their ceremonies rich and full and joyous! They created such a safe and loving space for everyone to be themselves. This was my first time working with huachuma and Ive discovered that this is my medicine. Huachuma connected me to my true spirt and I was able to disconnect from the noise in my head and make a deep connection with my body and soul in a way that I havent been able to with other medicines. I would say that huachuma is a powerful yet gentle medicine that allows you to be you... whether you want to heal from trauma or find answers to questions or to just be ever present in your body and enjoy and partake in the music and joy of the ceremony. The day ceremonies were my favorite because you were able to wander around in nature and swing in the hammocks or rest by the pool. I will definitely be back for another ceremony! Thank you!! Carla

I’ve had the profound privilege to work with Beáta several times now, both in retreat as well as one-to-one. Having worked previously with several shamanic practitioners, healers, facilitators - Beáta’s work is hands down the best I’ve experienced. I’ve seen accelerated and exponential personal growth through our time together and am now experiencing the ripples begin to take place all around me as my vision comes to life. Beáta has a unique ability to not only hold incredible sacred space, but to intuitively guide you as you move through the humbling and important phases and stages of healing and transformation. Her gifts of intuition, of song, of guidance, of unconditional love, of the connection to the world of intangibles, offer the opportunity for profound healing and change. I highly recommend working with Beáta if you should ever get the chance; it will change your life!

Beata is such a powerful, strong, calm, compassionate leader. From the first interaction I knew I was in good hands. Super professional, deeply feeling and kind. A true gem! Thank you for being a beacon of light Beata and helping ground us all.
