Tiwaz Awakening is a 9-day immersive journey through ancient wisdom, modern neuroscience, and warrior spirit.
Set in the heart of Peru’s Sacred Valley, this retreat weaves together plant medicine ceremonies (Ayahuasca & Huachuma), QEEG brain mapping, neurofeedback training, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, high Andean hikes, and powerful ancestral rituals to help you reconnect with your deepest self.
Whether you’re seeking healing, clarity, nervous system regulation, or a reset of body and mind, this experience is designed to unlock flow states, emotional resilience, and soul remembrance.
Each guest receives a brain map before and after the retreat, revealing how your inner shifts show up in measurable neurophysiological change. With real-time neurofeedback, we support the rewiring of trauma patterns and the rebalancing of your nervous system.
We work with both traditional and modern tools, guided by experienced facilitators, local healers, and a strong container rooted in Norse mythology and the archetypal Hero’s Journey.
The Tiwaz Rune reminds us: to awaken the healer within is to remember our sacred duty, to face the unknown with courage and heart.
This retreat is open to all who feel the call to transform. We are proud to be veteran-owned and have a deep commitment to supporting fellow veterans on their healing journeys, though you do not need to be a veteran to attend. All sincere seekers are welcome.
This retreat is for those ready to walk through fire, dive deep, and rise renewed.
No previous experience with plant medicine, brain mapping, or martial arts is necessary—only a sincere call for transformation.
Tiwaz is the Germanic rune that represents Justice, Honor, Sacrifice, and the Warrior Spirit.
We emphasize what shamanism has always been, a hero’s journey down to the depths of the soul, overcoming challenges to reach spiritual insight.
Life is a journey and often a challenge, it is how we rise to face the challenges that shape who we are.
We are a team of true spiritual explorers, people that have all gone through their own journey and have learned their own lessons along the way.
The journey never ends, as our guests grow so do we.
This emphasis on mutual growth creates a deep experience for us and our guests.
Tiwaz Awakening combines a unique set of modalities bridging the gap between the physical body and the spiritual body. We honor our physical realm through Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, archery, and hiking to sacred places like the remote mountain Apu Ausangate.
Embodying lessons from plant medicines and bringing them to the physical is what true spiritual evolution is all about.
We provide each guest with pre and post QEEG brain maps. This allows our guests to see that the changes that they experience are not merely a psychological or spiritual event but a physical event that we can see in the brain.
Spiritual neurofeedback (brain training) and acupuncture deepen the realm of possibilities.
Combining the movement of subtle energies through Acupuncture an age old practice with cutting edge applied neuroscience book ends the evolution of the healing experience.
We are very proud of the retreat that we have created with Tiwaz Awakening.
We are sharing with you everything that has changed our lives.
We look forward to being a part of your journey.
