Details of this retreat

This unique retreat combines the sacred practice of Master Plant Dieta with vocal exploration and ayahuasca ceremonies, all held in deep connection with the spirit of Noya Rao. Guided by an experienced vocal artist and musician, you’ll be invited to explore your voice as a spiritual tool—through sound, vibration, and song—within the context of Shipibo plant medicine tradition.

For many of us, the voice has been silenced by shame or fear—conditioned to believe that we’re “not good enough” to sing. This retreat offers a healing path to reclaim the power of your voice. Through mindful and embodied vocal practices, you’ll gently dissolve limiting beliefs and reconnect with your authentic expression.

In modern Western culture, many are discouraged from singing beyond childhood. Yet, singing remains one of the most direct and potent ways to transmute emotional blocks and open channels of communication with spirit. In Shipibo tradition, song is not just expression—it is a bridge between the human and plant worlds.

Within a traditional Master Plant Dieta, the student enters into sacred relationship with the plant spirit through sound. As the dieta deepens, the spirit may offer a melody—an icaro—as a form of communion. This melodic bond becomes the vessel through which healing, gratitude, prayer, and wisdom are exchanged.

To support your journey, you’ll receive daily guidance through breathwork, chanting, vocal improvisation, and practices designed to open the voice. No singing experience is needed—just a willingness to listen, express, and explore the spiritual language of sound.

- Guided by Shipibo Healers
Work with respected Shipibo maestros who carry deep ancestral knowledge of plant medicine and the sacred use of icaros. In this retreat, their guidance will support your dieta with Noya Rao, creating a container where sound, energy, and spirit meet.

- Sacred Ceremonies in the Heart of the Amazon
Participate in traditional Ayahuasca ceremonies in a safe and intentional setting. Each ceremony offers a sacred space for deep listening, healing, and the emergence of your unique spiritual voice, guided by the plant spirit of Noya Rao.

- Vocal Activation & Personalized Healing
Explore your voice as a channel for healing and self-expression. Through breathwork, chanting, and guided vocal practices, you’ll reconnect with your inner sound in a trauma-informed and supportive space—no prior singing experience required.

- Master Plant Dieta: Noya Rao
Engage in a traditional Master Plant Dieta with Noya Rao, the Tree of Light. Through silence, intention, and song, you’ll cultivate a relationship with her spirit—one that may offer melodies, visions, or guidance to illuminate your personal path.

- Support Beyond the Medicine
Beyond ceremonies and vocal work, the retreat includes jungle walks, floral baths, integrative practices, and space for rest. This holistic approach supports your body, mind, and spirit—helping you carry the teachings of Noya Rao into your daily life.

- Trauma-Informed & Culturally Rooted
This retreat honors the Shipibo tradition while integrating modern therapeutic principles. All practices are held in a respectful, grounded, and inclusive way, allowing your process to unfold safely, guided by the wisdom of the plants and the power of the voice.
