About this Retreat
Sanango is a Peruvian healer and spiritual master whose learning is based on Amazonian shamanism and Vedic philosophy. His life and work has allowed him to travel in various states of the soul, from disconnection to the experience of divinity and peace in states of compassion. Over the past 20 years he has conducted thousands of Ayahuasca ceremonies and many in depth processes, specializing in the awakening of consciousness and in healing states of depression, anxiety and addiction.
He has lectured and conducted seminars about shamanism, master plants and entheogens at various universities and other places internationally. He writes a blog at Sinchi Runa’s website.
Sanango conducts spiritual diets and other forms of spiritual healing. He works with entheogens, master plants and eastern consciousness techniques aiming to bring the individual to a direct encounter with her inner universe, the love of God and the reconnection with earth.
Ananda helps to facilitate retreats at Sinchi Runa, and is on a path of learning with Maestro Sanango and the Master Plants. He has spent many months in silence and solitude, dieting a variety of master plants and communing with Ayahuasca and the plant world, before beginning to assist on retreats at Sinchi Runa. With a caring and calm presence, Ananda helps to hold space for the process of all who come for healing, and assists Maestro Sanango in retreats.
Prior to Sinchi Runa, Ananda spent many years practicing meditation, attending and serving on silent retreats, and eventually maturing his practice to begin sharing what he had learned on his journey. He continues to make use of this to help guide participants in their processes and encounters with the Master Plants.
“Ayahuasca continues helping me to discover what I am and let go what I thought I was. She helps me to remember my nature of Love, an eternal existence beyond all ideas or thoughts of my mind. She has shown me the compassion and love that exists in the heart of humanity, and a hope for what humanity could become in remembering and embracing it’s heart. She helps me to see my own suffering, to heal and to let go, and teaches me to recognise that same suffering, and the same heart, in everyone and everything around me. I am so honoured and so very humbled to be able to play my small role in serving this sacred medicine, and to share that which has made such a difference to my own healing and life”
Mikaela is a Kambo Therapist, Ayahuasca Facilitator and Hridaya Yoga- and Meditation Teacher. For the past eight years she has been living in the Guatemalan and Peruvian Rainforest, where she has been assisting and developing Sinchi Runa together with Maestro Sanango. Her presence is safe, loving and compassionate and she serves Ayahuasca with deep integrity and wisdom. The devotion and love of her work embraces each human being, plant and animal on this Earth. When experiencing the medicine for the first time her thoughts were “If all people would drink Ayahuasca, all the problems of the world would be solved”.
In this spirit, she dedicates herself to creating a space in which Ayahuasca can be safely experienced in its full potential. During the past eight years she has dieted with a variety of shamanic master plants and gone through hundreds of Ayahuasca Ceremonies, Purges and Shamanic Processes. She spent most of the time during the first three years of her learning alone in the jungle without communication with the “outer world”. During this time she went through many shamanic diets, communicating with Ayahuasca, the plant spirits, the natural world and the Cosmos. A process that proved invaluable to her understanding of the medicine and allowing her to serve others in similar processes. Moreover, she is studying academic psychology as well as alternative therapies, seeking to implement a deep therapeutic safety and care, bridging profound shamanic insight and healing with a safe therapeutic framework and yogic practices. She is also a mother and spends most of her time rediscovering the world with her two-year old son Maitreya.
“I have felt the pain and cry of the Earth and I have cried with her. I have seen the deep inherent goodness and greatness of humanity and been filled with hope. I have experienced our eternal nature as pure divine love and our human nature as gardeners and caretakers of the field of our minds, hearts and of this beautiful Earth. I have danced with fairies in moonlit forests and I have ventured into the dark parts of my being, forgiving and accepting myself as I am. I have fallen in love with existence in all its nuances. Ayahuasca opened my eyes, my soul, my being and has given me the honor to hold space for others to journey with her, in their own unique way. I am convinced of the incredible healing power of this medicine and believe there is no greater gift humanity could receive in this time. I cannot express in words how meaningful this is to me, but through facilitating these processes I am filled with gratitude. Through Ayahuasca, I see so many people rediscover their own undoubtable truth and beauty, beyond all words or dogma. I see people communicate with the Universe while their suffering transforms into great wisdom. I am so honored to be here.” Mikaela
Kameron has been learning from Maestro Sanango and facilitating retreats at Sinchi Runa Ayahuasca Healing Center for the last three years. He has gone through various shamanic diets and spent much time in solitude and communion with Ayahuasca and other master plants in the Peruvian Rainforest. Before this he practiced meditation and self-enquiry for many years, while he explored ways to awaken creativity and live in harmony with the ever-changing nature of life.
With deep understanding, warmth and kindness he serves each one coming his way. He assists Maestro Sanango in Ayahuasca Ceremonies and Purges and facilitates these processes, caring for the physical and psychological safety, wellbeing and unfolding of each one present.
“It is an honor to serve and care for a space where this inward journey takes place. It is immensely deeper than I could have ever imagined and I continue to find myself here, diving deeper into my understanding of life, love and service.” Kameron
Details of this retreat
✨ REBIRTH BEYOND PAIN, DEPRESSION AND ADDICTION ✨
Our Personal Treatments with Master Plants seek to address and heal afflictions such as deep states of Depression, Trauma, Compulsion & Pain.
These are longer processes of typically lasting 1-3 months (or more), that aim to create a permanent and lasting change through directly addressing and releasing the root causes of afflictions and suffering.
The aim is a total reinvention of yourself - a rebirth into a new life beyond the pain.
We are an intimate, family operated master plant center that provides a highly individualised level of care and guidance in your process, with a high level of expertise in our work and 30 years of experience in healing with Master Plants.
At Sinci Runa, it is our mission to provide a safe and sacred space in which you can experience genuine healing and awakening, and rediscover a life of fullness, purpose and joy.
✨ WHO WE CAN HELP ✨
To us, all our afflictions, such as addiction, depression, the aftereffects of trauma, are symptoms of underlying conflicts that many modern treatments and pharmaceutical drugs do not address (and often only numb the symptom along with our vitality and joy for life, without offering long-term healing). Each of these symptoms and pains is also the body, mind and soul asking of us to address and understand the underlying conflict.
With the help of Master Plants in a Personal Treatment, we seek to move beyond the symptoms of the affliction and heal the true cause, and thereby also rediscover a life of fullness beyond the compulsion, pain or trauma. This is highly individualised and intimately guided process that aims to reconnect you to your deepest essence and opening of the heart, bringing about deep personal transformation and healing, and a life beyond the pain.
We have extensive experience helping people with a variety of afflictions, from mild to severe:
▻ TRAUMA & POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS
▻ SEVERE STATES OF DEPRESSION, ANXIETY & FEAR
▻ DISCONNECTION & DISSOCIATION
▻ COMPULSIVE & ADDICTIVE BEHAVIOUR (including substance abuse)
▻ CHRONIC PAIN
▻ AUTOIMMUNE ISSUES
▻ HARMONIZING PSYCHOSIS, SCHIZOPHRENIA AND ALTERED STATES
▻ LEAVING BEHIND PHARMACEUTICAL MEDICATIONS
We aim to provide a real, viable alternative to healing these difficult states, by
addressing these conflicts from the deepest space of the soul, so that a true and lasting transformation can take place.
If you have doubts or questions about your condition and whether the plants can help, then please reach out. In many cases the plants can provide relief.

✨ SANANGO - PERUVIAN MAESTRO CURANDERO ✨
The Personal Treatment is led by Maestro Sanango, a Peruvian spiritual master and “vegetalista” with over thirty years of experience in the Amazonian shamanic tradition. Through thousands of ceremonies and many years of seclusion in the Amazon jungle, he has formed a deep relationship with the spirit of Mother Ayahuasca and a variety of Plant Teachers or “Plantas Maestras”.
Sanango has many success stories of helping individuals who struggled with difficult states of addiction, depression, trauma, and chronic pains to turn their lives around and discover joy and purpose beyond the pain.
Through his work with the plants, he seeks to serve those who come to him to heal from their afflictions, to find joy and purpose in an understanding of their true selves and the unconditional love of the divine.
✨ THE TRADITIONAL AMAZONIAN HEALING PROCESS ✨
The content, length and format of a Personal Treatment is always completely tailored to each individual – no two cases are the same. This process recovers the traditional work of the Amazonian doctor (curandero), in the 1:1 accompaniment of the person’s pains and suffering.
Through a Personal Treatment we work on multiple levels of the being with a variety of holistic tools and the use of master plants, such as detoxifying, emetic and purgative plants (‘Purgas’) and processes, Shamanic Master Plant Diets (‘Dietas’), Master Plant healing ceremonies, as well as oriental consciousness techniques to awaken the heart. Each ceremony, master plant dieta (including the plant and length), purge or process that the participant does is prescribed according to their personal need by Maestro Sanango, the curandero overseeing the process.
Each step of the process is closely guided through personal consultations and guidance to unfold the delicate process of healing to help open as well as integrate the understanding into the heart.
The length of stay usually starts from 1 month, but varies on a case-by-case basis, determined together through prior online consultation and preparation. In cases of substance abuse, a minimum stay of three months is considered necessary, and often more is advisable.
During the healing process, the participant goes into a process of isolation from the world (speaking at the center, with facilitators, guides, and at times other participants is allowed). The process of isolation is a crucial aspect of the work, where we can begin to deeply review our habits, limiting beliefs and conditioning that ties us to our pains, and so begin understanding and releasing them. For processes longer than 3 months, some communication with the outside world can be established.
✨ SIGN-UP PROCESS ✨
Each process is handled with individual attention, and we create a thorough preparation plan for you before arrival at our center, tailored completely to your situation.
The Sign-up Process has the following steps:
1. Register your interest through the form here, or on our website.

4. Preparatory guidelines to begin working immediately from home after the consultation until the arrival at our center, including dietary, detoxifying and supplementary regimens.
If you are taking any contraindicated medications, we will assist you with a plan and guidance for safely reducing and stopping the medication.
The Personal Treatment is a unique opportunity to immerse yourself the ancient wisdom of Amazonian Shamanism and the loving guidance of the plant world; a place to rediscover your true self and inner strength, and be reborn aligned in love and purpose.
We will be honoured to share this magical process of healing and remembering with you and hope to serve you on your journey.
