When he was 14 years old, he had his first call and took by myself the plant Ayahuasca. Since then was devoted to master plants, learning from all of them, travelling and training with shamans and healers all over the world.

For 10 years I lived with my mentor in the House of Life, a healing temple where we perform ceremonies where we work mostly with Ayahuasca, Iboga, bufo alvarius, kambo, temazcal, and yopo.

also Psychologist of Health specialized in the benefits of Ayahuasca, and then founded Natural Psychology. and a disciple of the new manual therapy (unique osteopathic method) and trained in healing traditions in Egypt, Africa, Peru, Colombia, Mexico and Japan.

Our Team of Facilitators will be always on service during the whole Retreat to provide the needed assistance and accompany all the process with grace.


→ Intention preparation talk with our shaman Devi Chandra Ma (Divine Mother Moon) prior to Retreat we have a Discovery call, please book your date and time!

You will mentally and physically prepare for the ceremony, and one of the most effective ways to prepare for immersion is to set intentions. It will help you recenter and ground yourself during the ceremony. You will discuss your intention with the shaman, and clarify what is your purpose to do this work and what would be your ideal outcome. You will receive guidance on how to create specific intentions which will enable you to experience profound healing.

3 Ayahuasca ceremonies led by Axis and depending on the size or our group 2-4 trained Facilitators on the Retreat

During the ceremonies, it is the role of the shaman to make sure that a sacred field can be created. To hold space by staying centered, acting as energetic anchors throughout the ceremony and Medicine Songs so called "Ikaros" are sung by our shaman during the ceremony in order to direct Ayahuasca’s healing powers.

Small groups of 4-12 people allows for dedicated individual care, Our Mission is Healing in the safest way possible and Connecting deeply with each one of our participants makes this Healing a super profound One.

We only intake a maximum of 12 people per retreat, which allows us to offer personalized care to every participant. During the ceremony a concentration of energies is created, on different frequencies and generating different experiences. For the shaman and facilitators to be able to work most effectively and to enhance each individual journey, we limit the number of participants. This also allows for close bonding between the participants.

→Through integration circles after each ceremony

Integration is the most important element in working with plant medicine. As one of the first integration steps, you will take part in sharing circles, which will deepen your understanding as you reflect on the group’s experiences. However integration is not just about new understandings, it is crucial to also apply them. Although you are advised not to act on big life decisions within the first few weeks, you should make specific plans so that new ways of being take root in your life and become part of you.

» CEREMONIAL NIGHT «

Stage 1: Breathwork & guided meditation prepares you for the sacred plant spirits and calms both mind and body.
Stage 2: Rapé intake helps to focus the mind and cleanse any non-serving energy. It grounds you and serves as a gate opener to other realms of consciousness.
Stage 3: Ayahuasca ceremony. The light of the candle is dimmed and we breathe in silence and complete darkness. After period of time, Icaros and Mantras are sung to remove blockages and help you stay centered. On top of that, traditional instruments are played to strengthen the healing vibrations that support the opening of your energy channels.
Stage 4: Nourishments & after care. When the shaman closes the ceremony, tea and fruits are brought to the center of the Maloca for you to enjoy.
Stage 5: Integration: The day after the Ayahuasca ceremony, we come together in a sharing circle. For you to share what you have learnt. Axis and the facilitators will then aid you on how these teachings can be integrated in your life.

An amazing and transformative experience.
A huge thank you to the whole team for making this retreat a wonderful experience. The guidance and support I received before, throughout and after the retreat, as well as during the ceremonies themselves, has really helped me to integrate the experience and is already creating a positive shift in my life. Not to mention, the food was delicious and the venue was beautiful!! I would highly recommend Devi Chandra Ma and her team to anyone drawn to the plant medicine path.

Amazing family and healing
It was my first healing retreat and I could have not chosen a better group of caring and expert individuals.
During the entire experience I have felt well-informed and taken care of, from testing the ground by asking all sorts of questions and booking the retreat with Alise, to join Chandra, Sonia and all the other facilitators in a wonderful location in Portugal where they made sure I had everything I needed.
Although I cannot put in words how awakening and impactful on my life this experience has been, I can only stress out how I completely trusted Chandra and Sonia from the very beginning, their aura exudes kindness and compassion.
I would choose nobody else than them to embark in such a transformative journey.
I am beyond grateful they have entered my life.
Can't wait to meet them all again very soon!

Magical outstanding healer and guiding light
I had the great opportunity to join a Devi Chandra Ma's retreat, and I could not ask for a better guiding light.
Since the first moment we met, Chandra has taken great care of the group and each single participant, being always present, kind and compassionate in helping walking the path of much longed-for healing. You could feel from the first meeting with her how passionate and devoted she is to her sacred calling of making the world a better place one healed soul at a time.
Chandra's therapies and healing modalities were well-organized and performed with great expertise and love, they have been a soothing balm for the soul.
I always felt in safe hands and eager to embark in the healing process with her every day.
Knowing that I am part of Chandra's big family is giving me great support and hope for the future.
Muchas gracias por todo Chandra, nos vemos muy pronto!

A Spiritual Mother For the World
I met Chandra on her retreat and found her to be kind, caring, compassionate and an expert in her field. I was using ayahuasca to process a difficult past and fibromyalgia pains. Chandra offered me many resources (including breathwork, yoga, food awareness, and healing modalities) to make me feel comfortable. Since the ayahuasca ceremonies, I do not have fibromyalgia pain and I was able to process a lot of things that were the root cause of my chronic conditions. I felt that I could trust Chandra as much as a person could trust their own mother, as she deeply cares about plant medicine, healing and the people she offers these treasures to. I feel lucky to have Chandra in my life due to the retreat. Thanks Chandra for all that you do to make this world a better place and to make the people in it a bit happier, healthier, and more comfortable :)
