Wonderful Place for Zen Buddhist First Timers!
Came here with some understanding of the practice and a draw for how open the center is to other traditions, as evidenced by some of the Buddha statues I saw in some of the marketing material. I was honestly just so blown away by the authenticity and generosity of the family that holds space here for people to heal. The food is amazing, the teachers there are top notch, and the surroundings in the cloud forest will have you feeling so nourished and relaxed. You all have literally changed my life trajectory. Thank you so much.

My first experience of this kind
When I went to Hayulima, I was apprehensive. I had watched many videos online, and researched plant medicine. As a result, I had a certain level of expectations regarding the plant medicines, which is exactly what you are not supposed to have. What I did not expect was the people to be so warm and comforting. I feel like I benefited greatly from the advice and wisdom from the shamens regarding many of life's issues. All the volunteers and guests were very outgoing and friendly. If I were to sit by myself, someone would come up to me and ask how I was doing. I felt very welcomed.
I did not drink a lot of the medicine, even though I was free to do so, but the days that I spent at Hayulima were very insightful. Just laying in the hammock, looking at the forest, and thinking, was what I needed. I was asked several times by people outside of Hayulima if I would do it again. The answer is, when I'm ready, yes.

True Medicine
The Hayulima family are genuine and masterful. The forest itself is a source of deep healing, and the experience was truly transformative, not just for me but for everyone on our retreat. The volunteers are completely dedicated and part of the whole experience, helping guests to quickly build community and support for each other. The amenities, food, hikes and wild swimming are amazing . The ceremonies, medicine, wisdom, beautiful music, teachings and care have all helped me access parts of myself that I had never been able to reach on my own.

Great Community for Beginners Like Me
I had a wonderful time here. As soon as I got there, I was welcomed as a family guest. It was my first time at a retreat so I really appreciated the community that was created to help ease me in. Everyone explained things to me, checked in on me, and helped me heal. I can't wait to get back!

A Sanctuary of Peace, Wisdom, and Positive Energy.
My stay at the Hayulima Spiritual Sanctuary, nestled in the Amazon near Mindo, was a truly transformative experience. From the moment I arrived, Salvador, Shiram, MatĂas, Fernanda, Diana, and the entire team welcomed me as if I were part of their family. The setting, surrounded by lush forests and a peaceful river, allowed me to recharge in a place of breathtaking natural beauty, where the energy of the land is truly extraordinary.
The ceremonies, from San Pedro and Ayahuasca to Kambo and the Temazcal, opened doors to a deeper understanding of myself and the world. Guided with gentle care by the shamans, I reconnected with the essential elements of life: earth, water, fire, and air. Each moment was filled with kindness and wisdom, and the positive energy flowed naturally throughout.
This 10-day retreat introduced me to amazing people, beautiful souls who were all seeking growth, exploring their potential, and making positive changes in their lives—whether in their professional journey, in love, or in personal development. I left feeling enriched, at peace, and with newfound clarity about what truly matters: family, human connection, and harmony with nature.
For anyone seeking profound transformation, I highly recommend this retreat. It has the power to change lives.
