About this Retreat
Chris has been working with Amazonian plant medicines for the past 12 years and is currently apprenticing in the Peruvian Amazon under the guidance of Maestro Ricardo Amaringo. His passion and experience include 15 years of dedication to addiction and compulsion through 12 step recovery, hospice and supporting end of life transition. Chris is a life long learner dedicated to deepening his understanding with a variety of ongoing studies of trauma support and recovery.
While studying health management Mario began cause oriented health counseling. After graduating he set up his own business and worked in collaboration with doctors helping patients find the root cause. Most recently Mario spent two and a half years in the Peruvian Amazon to expand his range of knowledge. First he managed Centro Espiritual Nihue Rao before immersing himself fully in the study of plant medicine under the guidance of Master Shaman Ricardo Amaringo. Mario is passionate about learning and teaching the Shipibo language.

Journey with us into the Peruvian Amazon to sit with a true Shipibo Maestro and experience Ayahuasca in its authentic lineage. This is not just a retreat. It is a pilgrimage into the jungle, into the unknown, and ultimately into yourself.
Why we created this pilgrimage?
Traveling alone to the Amazon to work with Ayahuasca can be deeply transformative — but also intensely challenging. The jungle environment, simple living conditions, and cultural differences can leave participants feeling overwhelmed or unsupported at crucial moments. Language barriers and differing approaches to emotional processing may also prevent important inner experiences from being fully understood or integrated. We created this pilgrimage to bridge these worlds. Not to change the tradition — but to help you enter it with clarity, support, and preparation.
