One Of The TOP TEN REVIEWED AYAHUASCA RETREATS In The World, Safe & Reputable
Enjoy a safe and reputable Ayahuasca & San Pedro retreat at Gaia Sagrada Ayahuasca & San Pedro Retreat Center. Both medicines are needed for a true transformative experience. As the shamans say, Ayahuasca shows you what you need to change and San Pedro gives you the power to make the changes. One without the other medicine isn't a complete experience.
MODERN HOUSING, WIFI, GREAT FOOD!
You will stay in comfortable, modern housing with WIFI and great food! (The Ayahuasca Diet doesn't need to be bland.) Hot tubs, sauna and nature walks are available on our huge property in the magical Andes Mountains. You can also walk the hundreds of miles of country roads in the mountains around us and see the REAL Ecuador that tourists never see, with indigenous in their natural daily life activities. There is also a nearby waterfall to walk to. The stars... well... you've never seen them quite this clearly before!
YOGA, MEDITATION & WORKSHOPS
Daily yoga, meditation and various workshops give you even more depth to your experience at Gaia Sagrada with the shamanic medicines. Massage and counseling sessions are also available.
WHY ECUADOR INSTEAD OF PERU?
Shamans working in Ecuador must be certified, whereas in Peru anyone can call themselves a shaman. Ecuador has a safer practice concerning shamans and medicine.
CLOSE TO MODERN HOSPITAL
While it is a romantic idea to go deep into a jungle with walking and boats, the reality is that is not safe. If you ever have any issues, a modern hospital is only 30 minutes away from Gaia Sagrada and a driver and car is always on the property to drive you directly there if you should ever have a crisis. We have never had to drive anyone there, but we have chosen this place in the mountains on purpose for it's proximity to modern facilities should they be needed.
SAFE MEDICINE! YOU DETERMINE DOSE
No additives are combined with the medicines. For Ayahuasca, it's only the leaf and the vine. For San Pedro, only the cactus. Nothing else is added. We want you to meet the absolutely pure experience with these medicines.

Also, some centers dole out a certain amount of Ayahuasca and if you don't have an experience, too bad. We don't feel that is fair. Everyone's body needs different doses. We allow you to take however much Ayahuasca you need in order to have an experience. We don't let you overdo it, of course! If you can't walk up to the shaman and get it, well... ; )
STAINLESS STEEL INSTEAD OF ALUMINUM POTS
We have tried to think of everything! Most centers make their medicines in aluminum pots which are very toxic for cooking and for your body. We only use stainless steel, which is free of toxins. Our motto is safety first! Your health is our primary concern.
NON-PROFIT PRICES
Our retreat center is non-profit, which is rare, and our prices just cover expenses. We do not believe in getting rich with medicine, and even the directors make minimum wage in Ecuador. We are more concerned with awakening in humanity, so we have priced our retreats at the expenses level. You get a LOT for the price of this retreat, compared to other centers. You will also be supporting an organization which operates with integrity and compassion for the state of humanity and the world.
ALWAYS SOMEONE TO TALK TO
There is always someone to talk to on staff and our volunteer team if you need some personal help with processing your experience with the medicines. Some centers, you are pretty much on your own, but we take seriously the need for everyone to have whatever they need for the transformation they are experiencing.
SHAMANS PRESENT FOR ENTIRE CEREMONY
From beginning to end, and then some! They stay until the process is truly over. At many retreat centers, the shamans are only at the ceremony for a couple hours or so, give the medicine and sing a little, and then leave even while the medicine is still going strong. However, our shamans are with you from the beginning until the very end. It is important they are there through the whole ceremony for total support and there for you to connect with afterwards as well. It is important that ceremonies are closed correctly as well.
MANY SOBER HELPERS AT EVERY CEREMONY
This is very important for safety of the guests, to help you with all your needs every step of the way. Some centers don't have helpers at all, or if there are, they are taking medicine too. We take safety seriously so we have several helpers who don't take medicine when they are helpers at a ceremony. We do everything very responsibly.
MALE & FEMALE SHAMANS, SAFE FOR WOMEN
A woman runs Gaia Sagrada Retreat Center and has a particular interest in making sure Gaia Sagrada Retreats are safe for women as well as men. Male and female shamans are at Gaia Sagrada's ceremonies.
NO ONE EVER LEFT ALONE!
We have enough helpers that no one is ever left alone with the medicine, which is when problems can occur. We take your safety very seriously not just physically, but also emotionally, mentally and spiritually. You will always have whatever help you need, even if you have to be apart from the group for a heavy process. We are there for you always.
A DAY OF REST BETWEEN CEREMONIES
This is important so you have time to process the changes the medicine brings you. Some centers cram a lot of ceremonies back to back each day, but this is a disservice to participants because they become exhausted and are not able to process quickly enough what is happening. They also have to skip ceremonies they paid for because they simply become too exhausted.

We offer two more ceremonies in this span of days for those who CAN keep up with that kind of pace, but no one knows if they can keep up with that until they're here. We would rather not have people pay for ceremonies they are too exhausted to participate in, so we have made the extra ceremony optional and lowered the retreat price.
2 EXTRA AYAHUASCA CEREMONIES POSSIBLE
That brings us to the 2 extra ceremonies you can participate in during the retreat for an additional fee if you would like to work further with the medicine while you are here. 1 in the middle of the retreat and the other at the end if you stay one extra night!
