Details of this retreat

Aynua invites you as an individual or yourself and your partner for a beautiful healing experience, where you will have the opportunity to take your relationship to a higher level of complicity and connection.LEARN NEW WAYS TO EXPRESS YOUR LOVELove is an energy present in all of us. The thing is, we don't necessarily know how to love, in a way that our partner or yourself, will feel totally heard and seen. This can be enhanced by conscious communication.Communication is more than being able to express ourselves: it's about the quality of our presence, in every moment. Presence with what we feel, presence with what our partner feels.This practice is enhanced by Sacred Cacao. We serve premium ceremonial cacao from Northern Peru Criollo Nativo, which opens the heart, calms the mind, brings clarity, and strengthens the connection with your partner.A PRIVATE RETREAT TO MAKE YOUR RELATIONSHIP SACREDThe foundation of our teaching is a unique system that we created called "The 4 Pyramids of Sacred Relationships." From the journey of the serpent to the expansion of the eagle, you will be guided through four inspiring steps that help you enhance the relationship with yourself, and share the new you, with your partner. You will learn fundamental qualities of how to raise your vibration, treat your partner as a King or Queen, be authentic, and no longer repress emotions.Many of us carry deep emotional wounds and traumatic memories; it is time to embrace this, and truly love all that is. When we become conscious, we can be of great service to ourselves, and to our loved ones. Looking forward to support you as a couple on your journey of Sacred Relationships.Diana Deer Hawk????Alku Matheus Co-Founders of AynuaPRICE OPTIONSAll meals are included and catered to your personal diet and needs.Prices are per person.Visits to archaeology sites and outside excursions are at an extra cost.

Begin each day with a magnificent view of a sacred waterfall with the sound of hummingbirds buzzing in the garden. You will have access to a private garden and meditation space.

We begin with an opening ceremony in the garden with ceremonial cacao.

Guided meditation, emotional core wound workshops, conscious communication & foundation of the 4 Pyramids teachings in the afternoons, allows you to go deeper in your self-healing journey, and couples healing.

A magical space to truly heal
I feel so blessed to have found this magic little spot nestled in the mountains of Urubamba.
During my time staying here I was able to enjoy several different experiences including medicinal flower baths, cacao ceremonies, ceremonial massage, ancestral healing guided visualization and private Huachuma and Ayahuasca ceremonies with one on one integration.

Where do I begin? All experiences were absolutely perfect for me at exactly the right time. And that's what I loved about working with Diana and Matiyu and the intimacy of the retreat; we were able to review the schedule and shimmy things if it didn't feel right for that moment.
I am super grateful that I got to have my first plant medicine experiences in this setting. The way Diana and Matiyu hold space made me feel comfortable and safe to surrender. Since being at Amaruanka, I have experienced other ceremonies and can appreciate even more how special my experiences were and how much respect they have for the medicine, creating a true ceremonial healing space.

Even without any treatments or medicine, the location of the center itself is incredibly healing. Watching the garden change shape each day was so nourishing - hummingbirds feeding from the blossoms, eagles gliding overhead, surrounded by the beautiful Apu mountains. My deeper connection with Pachamama is one of the things I am most grateful for from my stay at Amaruanka.
The ceremonial healing massage I had with Diana was much more than bodywork (though her touch is absolutely amazing). I guess the clue is in the name, but it's the ceremonial aspect that made it truly special. Diana seems to intuitively know what you're going through and brings in crystals, sounds, scent, and other touches to support as needed. I just melted into the massage table and released what no longer served me.
Wherever you are in your healing journey, I can't recommend Amaruanka enough!!

Beautiful location and kind hosts.
Came here with my girlfriend -- Diana and Matiyu were kind and gracious hosts. It is a safe and beautiful space in a wonderful location. The food was fresh and great. We ended our retreat early and left before scheduled because we felt there were belief differences that we weren't comfortable with. We felt uncomfortable with Diana smoking Mapacho (Peruvian Tobacco) while she breast fed her baby, and that they were preaching a belief system onto us that was esoteric and left little room for us to have our own experience. Again, this is a safe and wonderful space, but it might not jive with folks who are a bit more scientific minded.

Peaceful place in the heart of nature
Highlights from my experience: ceremonial flower baths, cacau ceremony and a 1-1 therapy with Diana.

I am very grateful for this place and the kindhearted people who run it!

The location is peaceful in nature and a place I always feel incredibly safe. Diana and Matiyu hold space beautifully in a very gentle way. You can feel that they put their hearts into their work and really care about what they do. Not only that but I could also feel how much experience they have in working with holding space for others to heal. I would recommend Amaruanka to anyone who visits Urubamba.

This is a place where deep healing takes place and where you'are welcome to come as you are. Thank you!

Calm the mind, relax and rejuvenate @ Amaruanka
I attended a floral bath and cacao ceremony in November and absolutely loved it ❤. Amaruanka is a peaceful spot surrounded by nothing but nature. Diana is an Earth Mama and from the start she made me feel welcomed and her calm energy was really lovely to be around. I loved it so much that in December I attended a Women’s workshop. I will keep heading to Amaruanka as long as I am in the Sacred Valley. I highly recommend the healing centre to anyone wanting to calm the mind, relax and recharge. Thanks guys Susan ???????????? x

Amaruanka is a little oasis for healing and finding peace
I found Amaruanka through a recommendation of a friend, who told me about Diana’s womb healing sessions. I messaged Diana and immediately felt the calling to go and see her and receive one of her healing sessions.

Amaruanka is a beautiful oasis of quiet and piece that is often hard to find especially when you’re traveling. Diana and her partner are lovely and very welcoming making you feel comfortable and cared after immediately.

Diana has a beautiful kind and gentle presence and you can feel that she deeply cares about the people she’s working with. She’s very authentic and her treatment was both deep, relaxing and nurturing at the same time. She made me realize that healing yourself doesn’t have to be super intense and challenging all the time but can also be done with a lot of love and compassion.

She has a lot of wisdom to share, I highly recommend to go and see her and stay at Amaruanka if you can!
