"I’ve been to Shangriballa for a 7 day Bufo retreat and it was fantastic. It’s hard to put into words what I experienced at the retreat or what a profound impact it has had on my life so I will not go there, however I’ll say that the impact was huge and very positive. Lisa and Miguel were great hosts and I immediately felt at ease in their presence, which is important when undergoing such a personal journey. They were excellent at preparing us for the experience, and the care and love I felt before and after was out of this world. True genuine humans. I look forward to eventually coming back again! One more note about the experience - if you feel called to it - definitely don’t hesitate and do it, though keep in mind that this is not the case for everyone. Bufo gives what you need, not what you want, so keep an open mind and be prepared to let go. Much love!"

"I’m at a loss for words to express my gratitude to Lisa & Miguel for these 7 days. It was pure magic. ✨ The opportunity to touch the "infinite" with something as finite as the mind is an experience that will always remain beyond words (you simply can't grasp it). The event’s organization, the safe space created by the entire team of organizers (including contributions from Cathrine and Julia), was at the highest possible level. And Lisa’s experience, her knowledge, insights, and the way she individually guided each participant smoothly throughout the entire workshop – this is something that cannot be priced in money – absolutely priceless! Everything I’ve mentioned above is incredibly helpful for integrating everything we can experience with them afterward! And finally, I cannot forget the entire group of participants (of which I had the honor to be a part)... wow, without a doubt, there wasn’t even a hint of coincidence here, as each of us was a key to unlocking something grand in the next person – I bow to you all, it was truly wonderful to be a part of this amazing spectacle called Life! 🫂💙 What a show... What a cosmic joke... ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Definitely 6 stars out of 5 possible :)"

"The experience was unique and every aspect of it was helpful. Thanks you brothers and sisters, it was an honor to heal together. Thank you Lisa, Thank you Miguel. Much Love"

"I visited Shrangriballa in July 2024 for a 5-day Kambo and Bufo retreat. Firstly, and most importantly, Lisa and Miguel are amazing people who serve medicines with great respect and knowledge. My experiences with Bufo were incredibly profound and Lisa's staged approach meant that I always felt in control of dosage and able to have beautiful and intense experiences. I always felt loved, supported and guided to be able to integrate my journeys. Secondly, the venue is beautiful - a tiny village in a hidden valley miles from other habitations or roads. It is full of nature and provides a perfect setting for integration. My accommodation was very comfortable and excellent vegetarian food was provided at mealtimes. Finally, outside of ceremonies, in the sharing circles, Lisa and Miguel facilitated the discussions with great skill providing gentle guidance and holding space without promoting any dogma. I thoroughly recommend this retreat centre whether you are experiencing these medicines for the first time or, like me, are coming to go deeper and re-connect with the beauty of connection to consciousness. "

Marc August, 2024

"Where to begin?... Bufo was for me an experience of fundamental significance. I felt it to be very vibrational in all possible sense of the term. I was very and happily surprised by the experience. I felt that Lisa and Miguel have the sensitivity to feel nature of these kind of experiences. And as such, they bring a good energy and positive vibrations to these experiences. Lisa and Miguel have had personal experiences themselves which greatly helped creating a safe and secure environment for this experience. I was honestly amazed with the rigour and thoroughness with which Lisa conducted this retreat. I am thankful to both of you dear Friends :)"

Arnold April, 2024

"Very laid back atmosphere with professional healers, they are also very experienced so they inform you well and they have a great routine checking up on people during ceremonis whit out interfering in the experience. Spectacular vegetarian food and dessert included in the price. Up in the mountains where the weather may change so bring some warm clothes as well. "

"It was my first experience with retreat guru, with kambo and with bufo. Lots of first times. I was not disappointed. I felt taken care of, Lisa was very welcoming, clear, helped with all my questions before and during the stay. I felt safe while I was in my process with medicine. Laurel eco village is amazing I would love to just stay there for some time. Food was delicious and beautiful. Sound healing really helped to go through the process. If you feel ready for bufo I really recommend. But really feel ready, my personal trip was not a walk in the park ;) "

Kathryn October, 2023

"Finding the words to explain how magical this retreat was is difficult. From the very start I felt at home with a group of strangers who quickly became very important to me. Lisa is truly a remarkable human, who is sharing her light with the world. I am beyond honored to have had the opportunity for her to facilitate my Kambo and Bufo experiences. Her, Miguel, and Catherine make the most amazing and professional team. The guidance, the music, the facility, the medicine, all incredible. The location could not be better. Perched up in the mountains, Loural provides an opportunity to escape into nature while practicing mindfulness and connection to oneself. It is filled with impeccable healing energy. The food is fresh, nourishing, and delicious. And the experiences with the medicine… beautiful beyond comprehension. This experience is an opportunity of a lifetime. I truly am so grateful and feel a million thank you’s to Lisa, Miguel, and Catherine will never suffice. Much love"

Erlend September, 2023

"If you are reading this and feel the calling to bufo/kambo please please please go for it! (You didnt end up here on accident) The retreat is set in a beautiful environment surrounded and hosted by professional, loving, high vibrational people setting you up for the experience you need."

Kevin September, 2023

"I had a great time at Loural Eco village. Accommodation, food and location were just perfect. Lisa and Miquel are just so nice and knowledgeable, they put you at ease straight away. And Catherine!! Wow!! Her music is worth the fee alone. And then the medicine. It gives you exactly what you need. Feel so good in myself since returning home. If you get a chance to participate in one of these retreats grab it with both hands. Thank you to all for making the weekend and all the lovely people I meet there. Thank you. Till the next time............"

Christina September, 2023

"It’s a live changing experience! And with Lisa, Miguel and Katherine you’re in the best hands for this. They guide you through the whole experience with a lot of wisdom, an open heart and much love. Thank you for everything ♥️"

Klaudijus September, 2023

"It's been a great journey throughout the retreat. Lisa, Miguel and Kathryn put up an incredible experience. I felt safe and looked after all time round and there was also this feeling of ease, that you can ask, share and approach them with any question that pops up. And also, the way they approach medicine with such a delicate touch, bringing you into those deep states little by little, so that the process is incredibly smooth. I'm so grateful to have been a part of this. Much appreciated love from me :) Also location, people in it and the food was absolutely amazing! If you're deciding to go that's a no brainer. Thank you all very much!!"

Michael September, 2023

"This was truly a life changing experience and i will forever be gratful. Lisa is truly amazing, truly wonderful and true shaman that hold each individual by the hand in the way they need to be held to go through this journey. Miguel was also an amazing person to also have around. I will not talk to much about my journey but if you feel the calling to do the work with these two beautiful souls. I highly highly recommend it. Thank you all "

"From the start of the retreat I felt completely safe, guided and supported. The group was so supportive and respectful too, thanks to the wisdom and guidance of the facilitators. The preparation and integration meant I was able to move through any anxiety. I can't recommend enough. This has changed my life."

"  Words simply fail to capture the depth and transformative power of my Bufo experience. It was an extraordinary voyage into the realms of conciousnes that shattered the limitations of my perception and opened the doors to a profound understanding of existence itself. The Bufo journey had striped away the layers of illusion, revealing the truth of who I am. To Sangoma Lisa and Miquel, I offer my deepest gratitude for the Transformational journey you facilitated. Your wisdom and compassion have forever etched a mark on my soul. Their presence and experience create a container where the deepest layers of self can be explored and profound healing can take place. With their guidance, you will be held in the arms of love, compassion and transendence. I feel blessed with also receiving an incredible guidance after my bufo experience with the regular phone calls and messages. Thank you Lisa and Miquel! "

Craig June, 2023

"My time with Lisa and Miguel at the retreats and the sacred practices they use has truly changed my life on the path to self realisation! They play a huge part in my journey to realise the self which is within us all and ever present, we just need to be shown the way home and they offer access to the tools needed to help kick-start this. They take as much time needed, great care is felt and absloutely nothing is a problem, they cater for all needs to help everyone and everything and the love felt there is pure, unparalleled, unconditional and absolute! I would not only consider them very good friends but immediate family. This pure love and contemplation for all is what is shifting this world from darkness into light ! ❤️🙏🏻"

Nikolay June, 2023

" Wow,thank you Shangriballa. My life is changed completely in the last year since I started my retreat with you. Your powerful ceremonies, have completely transformed my life. From the moment I arrived, the serene atmosphere ✨️, Lisa and Miguel created a safe space and I felt at home straight away. The Kambo ceremonies made me feel strong enough to get back better and healthy. I feel the small shed Kambo tree like my home. The Bufo experience was beyond words, dissolving my Ego and revealing profound wisdom and ballance. I lost 10 kg of my weight and I have more power than ever. I feel more confident to take care of myself and watching my food, drink and mind. I stopped my drinking habits and junk food. I can recommend only experience and practice. It's a one time in the life opportunity for completely transformation 🙌 🙏. The preparation and integration process was incredibly helpful 👌. My outlook on life and the interconnectedness of all things have changed completely and forever. I.m very thankful for the chance to have that experience and highly recommend Shangriballa to anyone who is considering a life changing experience. I can't wait for next retreat in Portugal. The end of August seems to me so far. Respect and honour for everything done by Shangriballa for me. "

"The best facilitators and location you could dream of! Lisa and Miguel are just such a calming, inspiring and reassuring presence. Their counsel and words helped me through my journey and the way they set up the whole environment is special. And they work together with many volunteers with unique skills. The beautiful and powerful mountains where they hold their retreat are the perfect scenery to provide you with the peace and energy needed for such an intense experience! I can honestly say that this was the deepest and most profound experience of my life! Thank you so much Lisa and Miguel and special thanks to Caro, Agnes and Catherine for their support and amazing work! "

Levi May, 2023

"I recently attended the Kambo & Bufo Retreat and it was an absolutely life-changing experience. The serene, natural setting provided the perfect atmosphere for profound personal growth and introspection, while the knowledgeable and compassionate guides led us through the powerful Kambo and Bufo ceremonies with utmost care and expertise. The combination of these sacred medicines left me feeling cleansed, rejuvenated, and deeply connected to the universe. I cannot recommend this transformative retreat highly enough – it exceeded all of my expectations and left me with unforgettable memories and insights."

Valérie April, 2023

"I had an incredible time in Portugal. Lisa and Miguel gave me the space to feel totaly safe and they were very helpful.I was accompanied warmly. I would definitely recommend them."

emmanouil April, 2023

"I wish I could describe the experience with bufo but I cannot ,it is the most beautiful and intense thing a human being can experience. If you consider having bufo though an experienced facilitator-shaman is the most essential part to guide you before and after the experience. Lisa is an amazing soul and she knows exactly what is she doing and she has a deep knowledge and respect in plant medicines .She will know from the first call if you are ready to receive the medicine ,and will also know if the energies among the participants are going to work collectively .If you think you want to have this experience (and you definitely should) I can say for sure that Lisa is the most right person to guide you ."
