Retreat Highlights

  • We are very new to Retreat Guru. Just posted our mystical retreat today, Nov 27th.
  • Humanity is deeply in need of healing. I truly believe that Huachuma plant medicine holds incredible potential to wake us up from the slumbering state that has us hypnotically sleepwalking towards destruction. I believe that Huachuma can help us remember the truth of who we are, our divine purpose, and the unique gifts we each are endowed with. When we heal ourselves we make it possible for everything and everyone else to heal." - Kiki
  • This is a 11-day retreat in one of the most sacred and stunning places on Earth, Sacred Valley of Peru. Guided by Suraya & her huachumeros familia in their family lodge, this mystical Huachuma journey offers you deep insights into the Self and the Universe, giving you a greater sense of connection and spirituality fostering compassion and gratitude with the elements of Pachamama and her plantas medicinales.

Huachuma also known as San Pedro, The Grandfather or Trichocereus Pachanoi is an ancient entheogen cactus and it is one of the most sacred and wise consciousness from the Andes (2,000–3,000m above sea level). Inviting it into your life to work with is a big deal, even when taking smaller doses. The effects of Huachuma can be profound, and this practice can positively affect your entire life. By connecting more deeply with yourself, you become more aware of spaces within that need healing, how you relate to and communicate with self and others, thoughts, patterns, behaviour, and so much more. Huachuma is a Heart Expansion plant medicine.

With greater awareness comes greater opportunity for change. The benefits of this practice are truly immeasurable, and it is essential to arrive at this ceremony with gratitude, reverence, openness, and trust. Gratitude and reverence for Huachuma is sacred and the powerful support it offers on our paths of healing, growth, openness and trust for the ceremonial experience ahead.

It is important to release expectation as you begin your journey. Intention is a significant part of your practice, but expectations can be constricting and limiting and we suggest releasing any that you have. Trust that when working intentionally with the medicine and committing to your practice, you always receive exactly what you need on your journey.

Testimonial:

"This was the retreat I needed in every way! It was an incredible enriching experience personally but also fascinating to be immersed in such a spiritual place and culture and to be held so gently and lovingly in the container that was this family style experience. There was lots of outdoor hikes and amazing sacred sites the campfire every night was incredible the hospitality food and support unbeatable and the people and insights found and shared simply magical." - Susan

"This mystical experience has provided me with key information for healing in my life, after years working with therapy I still had something missing and the ceremonies and sound healing were instrumental to me. This retreat is carefully and lovingly put together to support each and every one journey and the ripples of joy and love are felt profoundly. The integration portion post retreat has been fundamental to arrange the learnings into a real life setting and continue healings. I have profound gratitude for Suraya and her family's guidance, space and sharing." - Brenda

Directions

Every international flight lands in Lima, so you'll need to book a domestic flight to Cusco via Sky Airline or LATAM (recommended). We will pick you up directly at Cusco airport between 10am - 10:30am, kindly book your domestic flight via Sky Airline or LATAM from Lima to Cusco (a 45 min flight) prior to pick up time.

Currently, KLM via Amsterdam has better flight timings & deals to Lima as it's pretty much a direct flight from Amsterdam (12 hours). Alternatively, you can also check Singapore Airlines, Airfrance, Emirates, British Airways or Delta Airways.​

From Cusco airport to our family lodge in the Sacred Valley is about a 2 hour van ride.
