With stories from his own life and insights that only time can teach, he inspires everyone to take the courageous step towards self-discovery and spiritual growth.
Music plays a central role in the world of transformation and healing that we create at our ayahuasca retreats. Here, at the heart of our spiritual gatherings, Jaime shines as our musician, enriching not only the space but also the souls of those present with his guitar and vocals.
His songs, a careful collection of traditional sages and his own compositions, are more than just musical performances; they are rituals in themselves, enhancing the healing energy of ayahuasca and supporting the process of inner transformation.

Details of this retreat
Join us for a fascinating 7-day journey deep into the untouched expanses of the Colombian jungle in Mocoa Putumayo, where we get to experience three Ayahuasca ceremonies, as well as the production and cooking process of the most powerful, ancient, shamanic healing plant, Ayahuasca, first-hand.
The trip is not only an opportunity for you to discover the breathtaking nature, but also to develop a deep appreciation for the customs of the Kamentsa-Biya tradition from the high Putumayo, who have been making ayahuasca and performing ceremonies with the sacred medicine for generations.
Our goal is to pass on the authenticity and respect for their Ayahuasca tradition to each of our participants.
We are located in Putumayo (Mocoa) in the direct territory of the Taitas. The nature there has been untouched for centuries and our Taitas live in close connection with it.
On your Ayahuasca journey you will go to the origins of the sacred plant medicine. You will also witness the profound wisdom of a tradition, that has been recognized and used for many generations and is now becoming more and more popular in our western world.
Moreover, the Ayahuasca unfolds particularly energetic in this environment.
Enjoy a uniquely spiritual experience on our jungle trip and learn everything you need to know about the plant medicine.

Highly recommend
At first, I was scared to travel alone as a woman and wasn’t sure what to expect. But from the moment I arrived I felt safe, cared for and surrounded by love.
The Shaman and his team were incredible and the ceremonies brought deep healing and peace. I’m so grateful for this life-changing experience at Ayahusca Spirtit colombia and highly recommend it.
During my ceremonies I experienced profound healing, clarity, and a sense of peace I’ve been searching for my whole life. Ayahuasca showed me the truth of who I am and helped me release so much pain and fear I had been carrying for years.
This is more than a retreat it’s a sacred space for transformation and rebirth. I am forever grateful for this experience and I highly recommend it to anyone feeling called to this journey.
Thank you so much,
