WHY CHOOSE THIS HEALING RETREAT?

The retreat center is an ecological sanctuary nestled within the jungle of Akumal, offering various hospitality options tailored for retreats. Situated in a sustainable community and functioning as an eco-incubator, our primary focus is on generating a positive impact on our planet. When you become a part of our space, you also become a part of the solution.

Our retreat center is a versatile environment, capable of accommodating a wide range of experiences within a safe and sacred setting. We encourage your creativity in crafting truly transformative encounters amidst the lush landscapes of the Mexican jungle.

At the retreat center, we extend a warm welcome to overnight guests, retreat organizers, event planners, collaborators, ceremony facilitators, workshop leaders, and a vibrant community of sustainability enthusiasts. Together, we are united by a shared mission: the preservation of nature and the conservation of wildlife.

As a team of five, including our shamans, teachers, and healers, we have dedicated decades to enhancing the human journey towards self-actualization by exploring consciousness through various practices such as mantra, yoga, meditation, breathwork, chi gong, plant medicine, music, art, embracing a healthy lifestyle, and practicing self-discipline. We’ve meticulously crafted a comprehensive protocol aimed at offering you unwavering support throughout your retreat experience. This protocol encompasses thorough preparation, expert and secure guidance during ceremonies, thoughtful integration, and ongoing mentorship. Our objective is to help you recognize and understand both your conscious and subconscious behavioral patterns that influence your daily life.

Your safety is our utmost priority, and we ensure that you can seamlessly reintegrate your retreat experiences into your daily reality. Our aim is for you to achieve long-lasting, transformative growth even after your departure. We are committed to equipping you with simple yet highly effective spiritual tools that will assist you in maintaining a well-balanced mental state. These tools involve regular self-observation, the integration of emotional healing, and the release of energetic blocks and trauma.

Our dedication revolves around facilitating the ascension of collective human consciousness by supporting the healing journeys of individuals who are prepared and willing to embark on the path of self-realignment. We achieve this through a fusion of potent yogic techniques and indigenous shamanic wisdom. This mission has inspired us to create experiences that can:

Restoring the healing memory of the cells

Cleanse trapped emotions both in your psyche and physical body

Establish new, healthy patterns across all aspects of daily life

Allow you to bask in the bliss of your beautifully imperfect divinity

Educate you on health and offer valuable lifestyle tips for rejuvenation

Provide you with specific breath and meditation tools that you can carry forward in your life

During the retreat, Ayahuasca facilitates the restoration of your cells’ memories, allowing your body to heal and rejuvenate in a way that is unique to your individual needs. This process often leads to the energetic clearing of deeply ingrained patterns, desires, and choices that may have been affecting your daily life.

We provide a variety of holistic healing modalities, including Chi Gong, transcendental breathwork, classical pranayama, yoga, ayurvedic and deep tissue massage, as well as traditional practices like Temazcal (sweat lodge) and ice baths. These offerings are designed to enhance and elevate your overall retreat experience.

Our retreat is often described as a personal reset, leaving participants feeling more alert, open, joyful, and lighter. It frequently leads to transformative life experiences, accompanied by fresh personal insights that pave the way for a happier and healthier life journey.

IMPORTANT PREREQUISITE!

As a participant, you cannot be on neuro-psychiatric medications, serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) selective serotonin inhibitors (SSRIs) or monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) such as antidepressants or anticonvulsants drugs.

3 stars in total but...
5 stars go to the amazing food and the invigorating yoga/breathwork practices. However, I believe that the overall experience could have been enhanced with more personalized attention and a stronger sense of unconditional love. It would have been beneficial if Tapovan and Lejaila had invested more time in understanding each individual's needs and guiding them towards their desired outcomes. Conducting interviews with each participant beforehand could have ensured a more aligned and cohesive retreat experience focused on personal growth. It's important to ensure that all participants share a similar intention for the retreat, such as personal development. At times, it felt like the retreat attracted individuals who were primarily seeking a psychedelic trip rather than aligning with the retreat's stated mission.

It seems that the primary focus of this retreat is to generate profit, with the psychedelic experience being seen as an added bonus.

Response from the Retreat Centre:

Dear Participant,
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and concerns. I truly appreciate your honesty and the effort you put into providing detailed feedback.

Firstly, your feedback is valuable to us because it highlights areas where we can grow and improve. We are always happy to receive constructive feedback and we are committed to making the necessary changes to enhance the retreat experience for everyone, such as emphasizing the FREE pre-retreat discovery calls.

Regarding your feeling of a lack of attention and personal engagement, we acknowledge that there is always room for improvement. Thanks to your excellent suggestion, we incorporated scheduled interviews with all participants and providing more personalized attention-

I also would like to take this opportunity to remind you of the support we always offer during our retreats:

1. Comprehensive Information: Our website has detailed descriptions of the retreat, the program, the facilitators, and a FAQ section. It contains all the general information, and if anyone has any specific questions or doubts, we are always available for support.

2. Pre-Retreat Communication: Participants receive emails with all the information they need to prepare, including what to bring, the schedule, an extra information sheet about the ceremonies and the medicine, a waiver form, and general guidelines. Our WhatsApp number is included in every email signature for any questions, and participants can send a message and schedule a discovery call if needed (free of charge).

3. Personal Support: During the retreat, we regularly check in with participants to see if they need one-on-one time and we have two group integration circles after both ceremonies. I remember you had a long talk with Mano, the shaman, and also with his wife, Barbara during the ceremony. We offered our one-on-one help openly to anyone several times during the retreat, and many people took advantage of it.

4. Post-Retreat Support: We keep in touch after the retreat and have a group WhatsApp chat for ongoing support. You didn't raise any concerns through this channel either but wrote rather positive feedback. Please let us quote you so people can have a broader perspective of your experience with us:

"I've kept following the guidelines we had before the retreat and I have been feeling like a totally new person!! I can see my own patterns easier now and I’ve also been able to observe and see other people’s “shadows/egos”. I remind myself all the time that “the perception of me is a reflection of you”. I feel like I’ve stepped back into my power (the intention I had) by having stronger boundaries and a stronger integrity. I speak up for myself. I see myself worthy on a new level and it’s funny because I’ve been getting evidence of that in form of increased income and nice gestures from people etc. this ended up to be a long text 😂 I am grateful for the medicine, all the insights and the new me✨💜"
One's healing journey is often shaped by the connections we forge and the transparency we maintain. It's a fundamental truth that to be understood, one must first seek to understand, and to be seen, one must make themselves visible. Just to be clear, you registered for this retreat without asking a single question, never had any inquiries pre-retreat, and did not once communicate your desire to talk privately during the retreat.

When we participate in a profound journey such as an ayahuasca retreat, the intention behind our actions and the clarity in our communication pave the road to the desired experience. We believe that mutual responsibility is essential for genuine connection and growth and we feel that it would have helped greatly if you had informed us about your desire to talk to us privately, we would have ensured you received the attention you needed, just as we did with all the other participants who expressed interest in having a private consultation apart from of the group integration circles.
It’s important to us that each participant feels seen and supported throughout their journeys. Our true intention is to help humanity process and overcome unresolved past experiences and traumas, enabling us all to rise out of this collective self-inflicted state of suffering. While we do need to generate profit to sustain our operations within the current monetary system, our genuine interest lies in helping people grow and become happier, more balanced versions of themselves. We deeply appreciate your insights and feedback, as they are invaluable in helping us improve. We thank you very much and wish you a beautiful and continuous unfolding of your healing journey.

Warm regards,
Tapovan

Perfectly balanced retreat! Just the right amount of activities + integration time. LIFE CHANGING :)
The scheduling was perfect. It had the right QUANTITY and QUALITY of activities: Temazcal, Cold Plunge, Hiking, Inner Child Workshop, Qi Gong, Yoga, Meditation, Breathwork.... paired with the right number of ceremonies for the days and the right amount of integration time between the tougher events. It's obvious that Tapovan has experience running and partaking in healing retreats; he definitely knows how to best support people. Tapovan, as well as the other facilitators and even the facility staff were AMAZING. Tapovan and the team are heart-centered individuals who made themselves available for participants as needed

The food ---- AMAZING, came back inspired to cook
Setting ---- the 6-day retreat in Tepoztlan was in a nice mountain town surrounded by nature, lovely
Schedule of events --- perfection
Activities ---- exceeded my expectation, and very well guided

Forever grateful
What an eye opening experience. I wasn't sure to expect. Coming here made all the difference. From the grounds, to the people helping around the property, to all the coordinators and facilitators that made this possible. Not only was this an amazing experience, but one that I will hold onto and remember for the rest of my life. THANK YOU for helping me with everything. Words can not begin to desribe the tranformative experience I partook in here. I will continue to use the tools in my day to day life. I plan on coming back in the future!

Went Above and Beyond my expectations!
I think booking this retreat was one of the most smartest decision I made recently. I’m very thankful to Tapovan for providing such a great passage to ayahasca experience. He and his team made this retreat very well organized, safe, and interesting. They provided everything that was promised and expected. Food was awesome!

If you’re looking to tap into ayahasca experience, look no more, these are the guys to go to !
