About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

Casa de la Madre has been operating and assisting people heal and learn since late 2009.  Cielo, the owner and manager of the center has been constantly in Peru working with ayahuasca and the teaching and healing plants of the Amazon since 2007. Cielo managed the The Temple of the Way of Light assisting in creating the program and facilitating the initial groups back in 2009. It was there that she learnt and grew to understand to be able to work as she does now. After working with big groups of up to 30 people to set 12 day retreats at the temple she realised that was not the way to work with the medicine. So since then in her intimate guesthouse works with no more than 10 people and is flexible with dates as to allow each person to heal and learn at their own pace. Casa de la Madre offers master plant dietas, healings and teaching catered individually to each person.Cielo is a very down to earth person full of love, compassion and understanding. With more than 30 plant dietas and 11 years of constant experience she is very focused on each person who chooses to come to Casa de la Madre.The guesthouse is set on the very edge of the lake in Yarinacocha just out of Pucallpa Peru.

AMAZING humans and otherworldly ceremonies!!
I absolutely ADORE Cielo, Kelly, the shamans, and the other people that this center attracts. They are all fantastic and truly kind humans that made my week there unforgettable. Cielo is so funny and her home is gorgeous. I'm so happy that I chose to stay at her center, she is truly invested in making this experience as transformative for you as possible. You take a boat out from Pucallpa during the rainy season and it's so beautiful with dolphins in the lake (some of them are the rare pink dolphins!) and you stay at a lodge that Kelly manages. She doesn't speak much English but she's a sweetheart and her sassiness is still very apparent. She catered to all my vegetarian needs and let me just say the food is spectacular - so fresh and delicious it kind of ruined all other fruits for me now that I'm back home in the states haha. There isn't wifi in the lodge (which was wonderful for me to unplug) but there is at Cielo's home and she's very accommodating if you need to use it.

The ayahuasca ceremonies are held out in a very nicely built hut/building out in the forest and the shamans are so sweet and pure hearted. They radiate positive energy and happiness, it's really intoxicating to be around them. My first ceremony I didn't have visions but getting to experience their ceremony both with/without the effects of the ayahuasca was still magical. Also, even though I didn't have visions my first time around, the medicine still worked it's magic on me because I went into the ceremony with a huge knot in my chest from my anxiety and the next day I felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders and was so peaceful and happy.

There is a lot of downtime during the day but disconnecting from the world and learning how to be super present was a rejuvenating experience for me - I recommend bringing a Kindle or some form of entertainment for the transition away from constantly being glued to screens. I thought the lack of AC and all the mosquitos would be awful, but honestly the nights were cool enough, my skin was radiant by the end of the week, and a good dousing of bug spray in the mornings kept the flies at bay.

All in all, I HIGHLY recommend staying with Cielo if you're looking for a magical ayahuasca experience in the Amazon rainforest.

It is not possible to express in words the beauty that this location holds
I spent 2+ months at Casa de la Mardre in 2015. It proved to be one of the most pinnacle turning points of my life. Cielo is the most kind and caring person I have ever met. Her knowledge and experience with the plants and medicines of the Jungle is astonishing. I took part in 2 plant dietas while I was there as well as Ayahuasca ceremonies every other night. The ceremonies we very powerful, healing, and transforming. Cielo would tirelessly make sure myself and the other guests were comfortable and looked after. She made herself available to talk if I needed help with anything.
It is not possible to express in words the beauty that this location holds. Every night the sunsets would blow my mind. The guest house tucked away on a little inlet of the lake provided a sanctuary for rest and reflection.
My time at Casa de la Madre really changed my life. I am eternally grateful to Cielo for the healing and lessons I learned while I was there.
If you are thinking about visiting Casa de la Madre, I highly suggest it.

The House of the Mother Ayahuasca
Hallo, traveller, I highly recommend The House of the Mother Ayahuasca! Safe and clean space, delicious food, strong medicine. Great hostess that runs the accommodation and healing like clockwork. Amazing view of the river and all that comes with it. :)

Home away from home
I went to Cielo's retreat at a time in my life where I really needed some healing. Getting there was an incredible adventure in itself, getting greeted at the airport with a big hug and a ride in a tuk tuk followed by a beautiful ride across the water in a boat during the wet season made it instantly magical. We pulled up to the house and being greeted by Cielo on her dock waving her arms and yelling "hello" made us feel so welcome. She has beautiful dogs, monkeys, a cat and most importantly a beautiful heart. It was my first retreat ever and I was extremely nervous and she calmed me down by patiently answering my million and one questions. The rooms were very clean, large and comfortable, the food was second to none, now that I'm home, I realize I can't feed myself half as well as they did. The staff is so kind and loving, does your laundry for you and they are constantly cleaning so that you have a tidy space. The medicine was extremely strong and pure and she made sure to give us the right kind and amount that we needed. You will always feel safe during ceremony and Cielo is there for all of your needs. The Shaman was out of this world and you felt you had a friend in him instantly! I cannot recommend this place highly enough, I met some of the most beautiful people and was graced with an experience I'll never forget.

I've been to many retreat centers and this by far is one of the best in the jungle! Cielo is the perfect Host. Right down to having a very cool library. Best food in the Amazon. Say how you want to eat n as long as its ayahuasca diet you're guaranteed it to be delicious! I sleep incredibly well in the jungle at Cielo's. Beds are so comfy. Thank you for n incredible stay!
