About this Retreat
Haru Kuntanawa: The Esteemed Leader of the Kuntanawa Nation
Haru Kuntanawa, also known as Prince, stands as a guiding light among indigenous communities in Brazil, celebrated for his transformative leadership in revitalizing the rich cultural heritage of his people. With a commanding presence, compassionate heart, and influential spirit, Haru has nurtured faith and unity within his tribe and neighboring villages along the enchanting banks of Acre, Brazil.
Deeply respecting traditional wisdom and the sacred healing properties of natural plant medicine, Haru took visionary steps to safeguard and honor these ancient practices. He played a pivotal role in organizing the Pano Corridor Project, a groundbreaking initiative uniting diverse tribes, nations, and people worldwide, fostering a deeper understanding between cultures across continents.
Currently serving as the president of the Ascak Association, the social organization of the Kuntanawa people, Haru passionately advocates for the collective rights and interests of his community.
In collaboration with his wife and Co-leader, Dr. Hayra Kuntanawa, an expert in both Eastern and Western Medicine, Haru embarked on a noble project centered on preserving Amazonian plants, healing indigenous communities, and providing education. Amidst the looming threats of corporate exploitation in the Amazon, Haru actively engaged in international efforts and conferences, including his participation at the UN, to defend the forest and its inhabitants from the destructive actions of various industries.
With unwavering dedication, Haru and Hayra channel their efforts into spreading their transformative message to the world through ceremonies and the use of plant medicines from the Amazon primary forest. Their music, voices, and profound connections during these ceremonies offer healing, guiding individuals to reconnect with their roots and awaken their consciousness to harmoniously coexist with the world. Through their passionate endeavors, they strive not only to protect the Amazon but also to inspire global harmony and preserve indigenous cultures, ensuring the well-being of all generations of humanity.

Genuine life changing experience
From start to finish, this retreat with Haru and Hyra was outstanding quality, care and guidance. The love I experienced was not expected, but always present during the entire event. The team was attentive,kind and professional. As for my personal transformation, it is still integrating into my consciousness. The healing and upgrade I experienced was profound. I would recommend this experience to anyone who would like to discover themselves in a deeper and meaningful way. Haru is a masterful leader,and is a true Medicine Man representing melinia of ancestral ceremony based in Amazon Forest knowledge that can be experienced by participants. He and his wife are true royals of the the ancient Bloodlines blessed by the legendary Queen of the Amazon. After experiencing them for 3 days I believe they will be remembered as legendary leaders in the upgrade Humanity has called for. Eternal Gratitude for this opportunity!
