Details of this retreat

The retreat will take place in Villagarzón, Putumayo (Colombia), in the heart of the Amazon rainforest and in the territory where the medicine of Yagé originates. For eight nights, participants will be welcomed by the Ai’Cofan community, in a natural environment surrounded by rivers, jungle, and extraordinary biodiversity, where this ancestral tradition has been preserved for generations.

The experience will be guided by Mayor Lorenzo Morales, who will lead five Yagé ceremonies, accompanying participants through a process of introspection, cleansing, and spiritual connection. In addition to the ceremonies, the retreat includes integration spaces, sharing circles, jungle walks, and the opportunity to learn about the territory and the ways of life of the community.

During the stay, participants will also have the opportunity to learn about the medicinal plants of the rainforest and the process of cultivating, harvesting, and preparing Yagé. There will also be the optional possibility of participating in a Kambó application. This retreat is an invitation to experience the medicine in its place of origin, in direct contact with nature and the ancestral wisdom that sustains it.

Getting Here

Retiro de evolución personal, Putumayo, Colombia

Directions

Participants should first arrive at El Dorado International Airport in Bogotá (BOG), Colombia’s main international airport. From there, they will take a domestic flight to Puerto Asís Airport (PUU), located in the Putumayo region.

Once in Puerto Asís, the journey to the territory of the Ai’Cofan community takes approximately 20 minutes by land to the reserve where the retreat will take place.

Participants will receive guidance and support throughout the entire travel process, from flight planning to arrival at the territory. Our team will be available to provide clear instructions and ensure that everyone arrives safely and without difficulty.

Accommodation

Participants will stay within the territory of the Ai’Cofan community, in a natural environment surrounded by the rainforest of Putumayo. The accommodation is simple and traditional, in open and rustic spaces that reflect the community’s way of life and allow for a direct connection with nature. Resting arrangements are in hammocks, a common and comfortable way of sleeping in the Amazon region, well suited to the warm and humid jungle climate. The hammocks are set up in protected shared areas that provide a peaceful space for rest and integration between ceremonies. The Yagé ceremonies take place in traditional malocas, sacred structures built with wood and palm that are used by Amazonian communities for spiritual and ceremonial gatherings. These spaces offer a protected, spacious environment deeply connected with the surrounding natural world.
