About this Retreat
My journey with Ayahuasca began in 2014, during a time when my life had come to a standstill. I was searching for deep transformation and this beautiful medicine set that process in motion. What followed were powerful ceremonies that helped me release pain, reconnect with my body, gain insight into old patterns, and experience expanded states of consciousness, unity, and love. I rediscovered my joy for life, which became the foundation for further growth. Life can still be challenging, and I still stumble at times - but I now stand on solid ground and live from connection and gratitude.
I have participated in over 50 ceremonies and completed the Ayahuasca facilitator training at Proceswerk in Groningen (2018). I have also extensively explored magic mushrooms, truffles, San Pedro, LSD, and Bufo - each offering its own unique experience and wisdom. Alongside guiding sessions, I work as a breathwork coach and massage therapist, and I’m currently in the final year of a 3-year training in systemic work, Transactional Analysis, and NLP.
It’s deeply humbling and fulfilling to create safe spaces for people to surrender to these powerful, magical medicines, and to walk alongside them for a short stretch of their life path. I believe each journey with the plants contributes to a more loving world.
With over 15 years of experience and close to 100 ceremonies, I walk this path with deep reverence for the healing power of sacred plant medicines. As a facilitator, I hold space rooted in the belief that we are the medicine - each of us carries the wisdom and capacity to heal from within.
Ayahuasca, San Pedro, and psilocybin are not cures, but powerful guides helping us reconnect with our truth, our wholeness, and our path home.
In every ceremony, I honor the unique journey of each participant, offering guidance, safety, and presence without imposing direction. My role is to support that listening, to help create the conditions where real transformation can emerge.
This work is not about escape or transcendence, It’s a return to authenticity.
I have been trained by ICEERS on harm reduction - a training to improve safety during and after psychededelics ceremonies
In my past I have encountered many challenges, but with the help of plant medicine combined with my resilient spirit, I managed to turn my life around: today, little Senta and big Senta walk side by side, in harmony.
I treat the people around me with a lot of love and attention. I am playful, passionate and attentive, in full acceptance of the challenges of life. I love, laugh and dance through life.
I live by the spirit of Pippi Longstocking: never giving up, staying curious, being wild, and sprinkling a little wonderful everywhere I go! 💫
Details of this retreat
Imagine a few days where nothing is asked of you except to be present. Where you can meet the medicines with an open heart, walk barefoot on warm earth, and feel the silence of the Alentejo settle into your body. This retreat is an invitation to connect deeply: with the wisdom of the plant medicines, with nature, with each other, and above all with yourself.
You can journey with three different psychedelic medicines. Alongside the ceremonies, we offer breathwork, meditation and dance. Our chef nourishes you with delicious vegetarian meals. And there is plenty of time to rest and integrate, to share and to simply be.
Ayahuasca
Known as “La Madre”, Ayahuasca - a sacred Amazonian brew - is more than a medicine: she is a teacher, a spirit, and a guide. Her wisdom is vast, loving, and sometimes relentless, showing us the truth of who we are by bringing buried emotions, memories, and patterns to the surface to be seen, felt, and released. In ceremony, Ayahuasca can facilitate emotional and energetic cleansing, trauma release and heart-opening visions, spiritual awakening, and reconnection to Source.
Huachuma (San Pedro)
The “Grandfather” teaches with loving strength and opens the gates of perception, allowing us to see with clarity and compassion. Unlike Ayahuasca’s deep inward journey, Huachuma often brings a grounded and heart-centered experience. In nature-based ceremonies, it helps us connect deeply with the Earth, with others, and with the wisdom of our own hearts. It may guide you through emotional release and forgiveness, profound connection to nature and the divine, insight into relationships, purpose, and life direction, a deep sense of joy, presence, and unity.
5-MeO-DMT
5-MeO-DMT is one of the most potent doorways into consciousness known to us. Where classical psychedelics tend to unfold in colour and imagery, 5-MeO-DMT moves in a different way. It does not show you a world; it swiftly, and often overwhelmingly, dissolves the one who is looking.
Within moments, the familiar boundaries of the self are swept away. What remains is often described as a vast, luminous stillness: a merging with everything and nothing at once, a return to pure awareness itself. The journey is brief, usually ten to thirty minutes, yet many carry its echo with them for a long time after.
Breathwork
Through the powerful technique of connected (holotropic) breathing, energy that has stagnated in your system, often linked to unprocessed emotions, can begin to release. Each journey is unique: you might experience physical sensations, waves of emotion, or moments that feel deeply spiritual.
Many people describe coming away from connected breathwork as if they have come to know themselves more deeply, feeling stronger, more vital, and more connected to life itself.
We are experienced guides who ensure a safe space and loving support so that you can surrender to what appears in your journey. We facilitate magic, spiritual, consciousness expanding experiences grounded in reality. We advise and support, hold the space, provide the set and the setting. The journey inward you make yourself. We trust in the power of the psychedelic medicines and in everyone’s self-healing ability. Of course we are fully present during your journey.
In addition, we provide a thorough intake procedure inc intake video call and a followup call a week after the session.
