Sacred Valley, Peru
Date
May 10 - 18, 2025

Retreat Highlights

  • BE HELD IN THE IMMENSITY OF THE APUS
  • Imagine the majestic ranges of Southern Peru encapsulating us in a sacred cocoon so high we feel closer to the heavens. The sound all around is a deafening silence that penetrates our minds and hearts.
  • What is left but a prayer? What is left but the reception of our own song longing to sing through us? Enter the valley within, this time not only for a vision quest but for a Listening Quest. Not only to receive the vision but the song and sound of our lives that is purified by our work readying us all the more to be an instrument of illumination in this world.

About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

We have received an overwhelming request from many of you who have journeyed with us through the Sound Ceremony 100hr INITIATION course or have sat with us in Ceremony already, to weave together the magic of SOUND & MEDICINE!
Finally, we are very excited to welcome you for a special Sound Ceremony experience in our 8 day ILLUMINATION Retreat in the Sacred Valley of Peru.
This next chapter is a chance to gather together again in the prayer of sound and silence and will feature masterclasses with special guest musicians and teachers, vocal workshops and our unique Forest Path medicine ceremonies (Ayahuasca & San Pedro) with sound, song and the immense space that the Andes mountains hold.

First time-Highly Recommend
I am so glad I chose Forest Path for my first aya immersion ceremony. I did 4 nights total with 3 ceremonies. I felt very safe and well taken care of by the entire team. Very important for my first time. Really really nice facilities. Great bathrooms near the temple. The temple is beautiful, right on the lake. I had so many wonderful break through sand this really changed my life. The food was excellent. The schedule was perfect. I cannot recommend this place enough. If you have decided to try aya, this is a wonderful place to start. You won’t regret it!

Beautiful, beyond words experience
I was very nervous and scared before this ceremony as it was my first time sitting with Ayahuasca. I had many fears from what I've heard others say about their experience. I approached Ayahuasca very respectfully and slowly, asking her to please be gentle with me.
She was extremely loving, delicate and gentle with me.
She helped me realize that fear is darkness and we are beings of light. She helped me realize that I always have and always will be divinely protected and guided.
As tears of pure love and joy fell down my cheeks I laughed all my fears away as I realized all of what she was saying.
I am honored to have been able to sit down with Ayahuasca in such a beautiful place.
The Icaros sounded divine, I am sure that angels were sitting with us as Letizia was singing.
I have great respect and trust in Jaya and Hayley, having known them from before already, I knew this was the right place and time to sit with this divine magical medicine.
I have been practicing meditation and yoga for years now, and I had just finished a month-long meditation course the day before the ceremony.
I believe all of his helped.
I encourage anyone looking for soul medicine to sit with Ayahuasca, specially in such a safe and secure environment as Casa Floresta.

The only advice I can give is be sure to prepare yourself beforehand, to be respectful, come with an intention and ask her to be gentle, she will !

It took me almost a month to write this review. I took a long time to integrate.

I am grateful beyond words and so happy to be able to tell others with all sincerity, there is nothing to fear but fear itself 💫

Thank you, thank you, thank you,

Mafer

Beautiful, safe space for ceremony
Had a very beautiful time at Forest Path - the space held and create by Hayley and Jaya and the rest of the team was great - the physical location is amazing - and everything surrounding the retreat organized.

Highly recommend - a much lighter, sweeter, ceremony experience as well, if that is what one is seeking
