Guide

Shaman Milena Dos Santos

Milena (daughter of lead Shamans, Silvana and Emerson) is a natural healer and nurturer. Her gifts allowed her to start guiding ceremonies as a teenager. Throughout the years, she has observed her parents and studied the Ayahuasca medicine and its healing properties. Now she is the lead facilitator of many of our workshops, ceremonies, and yoga classes in Brazil, and is the lead Shaman at our U.S. retreats and ceremonies. Her greatest expertise is within Ayahuasca and Rapé. Milena also speaks both English and Portuguese fluently, allowing for easy translation between Our Lead Shamans, the tribe, and participants of our Brazilian retreats. Milena trusts that through plant medicine, the world can find healing and positivity. This is why she brings the power of AYA to those who normally wouldn't have access to it. Milena is committed to traveling to those in need of the medicine because she knows that with it, we can all find our true selves and our inner peace. She has helped many in both Brazil and the United States during her travels, sharing her knowledge of plant medicine to anyone who is seeking it. - Herbalist with concentration in Ayahuasca, Rapé, and Sananga - Helped over 1,050 people gain access to Mother Nature's medicines - Traveling ceremony facilitator - Yoga facilitator - Licensed massage therapist - Main translator at our Brazilian retreats "As long as you trust Ayahuasca and your process, you will come out on the other side lighter and happier." -Milena Dos Santos

Guide Abiygal Dos Santos

Abiygal (wife of Milena) was born a natural empath and healer. She attended college and received her degree in Psychology, with a focus in music therapy. After she met her wife, Milena, she decided to use her knowledge and combine it with the study of indigenous plant medicines, under the advisement of her in-laws . Now, Abi is an herbalist who takes part in all of our ceremonies and workshops as a facilitator. She travels with her wife to bring our healing medicine to those in need in the States and other places where access is limited. Her expertise is within Ayahuasca, Rapé and Psychology. She believes that using both ancient traditions and understanding the effects of plant medicine on the human mind, can bring new healing possibilities to those who are suffering. - Our lead researcher - On-site counselor - Co-facilitator with her wife, Milena, for USA spiritual retreats - Herbalist focused on plant medicines "Plant medicine will become healing when taken with a holistic and mindful approach." -Abiygal Dos Santos

Join us for our Transformative Weekend Ayahuasca Retreat in Colorado Springs—a sacred space designed for healing, exploration, and profound transformation. Our retreat is guided by a team of experienced facilitators dedicated to creating a nurturing environment for personal and spiritual growth.

Our journey began with a shared vision: to provide individuals with the opportunity to experience the deep healing potential of Ayahuasca in a safe and supportive setting. Our facilitators bring years of experience in plant medicine, psychology, and holistic wellness, ensuring that each participant receives the guidance and care they need throughout their experience.

At our retreat, we believe in the power of community. We foster connections among participants, creating a space where stories can be shared, insights can be explored, and lasting friendships can blossom. Our intimate group sizes ensure personalized attention, allowing each individual to feel supported and understood.

Guided by an experienced and compassionate shamanic facilitator and her guide wife, individuals will embark on a powerful journey with the sacred medicine of Ayahuasca, known for its ability to open the heart, clear blockages, and awaken deep spiritual insights. Through carefully crafted ceremonies and a series of supportive practices, you'll connect with your higher self, nature, and the wisdom of the universe.

Safety is our utmost priority. We adhere to strict protocols to ensure a secure environment, both physically and emotionally. Prior to the ceremony, we conduct thorough screenings to ensure that each participant is prepared and supported, and we offer pre- and post-retreat integration sessions to help you process and incorporate your experience into daily life.

Join us for a journey of self-discovery and healing. Our retreat offers a unique blend of Ayahuasca ceremonies, other plant medicine circles, guided meditations, yoga sessions, and integration workshops. Together, we will explore the depths of consciousness, embrace vulnerability, and awaken to the transformative power within.

We invite you to take this courageous step towards healing and self-discovery. Let us walk alongside you on this sacred journey.

What Awaits You:

2 Sacred Ayahuasca Ceremonies: Each is led by an experienced shamanic facilitator, with guided support throughout the process.

Spiritual Workshops: Participate in enriching workshops that explore various aspects of spirituality and healing practices. These sessions will empower you with tools to integrate your experiences and sustain your spiritual journey beyond the retreat.

Rejuvenating

Abi & Milena are such kind and authentic people. From the moment we arrived, they ensured we felt comfortable and answered any and all questions we had. If there was any hesitation or fear along the way, they responded with kindness, patience, and empathy. They’re real people, who are open to sharing their experiences as well, which I found to be so refreshing.

This was truly everything I needed. I have zero regrets. If you’re in search of a plant medicine retreat, look no further. When I’m called to needing the medicine again, I will definitely book with them :) Read More

Great person

Milena is the real deal. She guided us from the very beginning, before we even left for our retreat, checked in multiple times and showed a sincere interest in making sure our experience would be great. She made us delicious healthy food every day, checked in with everyone often and did everything possible to ensure a safe and positive retreat. Couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide us in our first Aya experience. Read More

Wonderful person

Abi was a wonderful guide from before we even left on the retreat and still after we’ve got back to regular life. She checked in several times, walked us through what to expect & how to prepare before we left to ensure a positive experience. She was wonderful once we arrived, kept us well-fed, made sure we were all comfortable & had what we needed. Abi is a great person and we were so fortunate to have her helping guide us through our first Aya experience. Read More

Amazing experience

This retreat my husband and I went on was the best retreat we never knew we needed. Milena and Abi reached out right away, scheduled several video calls with us before we left so we knew what to expect and to ensure the best experience when we arrived. Each day was wonderful- the ceremonies, the people, and their guidance throughout. Great memories of sitting around the fire together, watching the stars and experiencing the universe in a new way. They made us delicious, healthy meals and snacks & were watching after everyone constantly to make sure we had everything we needed. Would recommend this to anyone looking to expand their horizons, spirituality or healing. It was a 5 star experience for a much more reasonable price than anything else we could find. You won’t find better people to guide you. Read More
