"The integration space Jo holds is incredibly powerful. She challenged me to go deeper and deeper within the medicine process of the week, exactly what I needed.
It would be a lot easier to hold a more passive sharing circle like a lot of retreats do but I feel what sets Ayayni apart is the unconditional truth that is shared by Jo and the other facilitators."

Experiences on Retreat
"There is no way to describe how humbling, loving and life changing an experience it was. From the facilitators loving energy and sharp intuitions, to the structure, group therapy and beautiful settings plus the fantastic people I met there has made for a weekend I will never forget.
The level of therapeutic work done in one weekend is nothing short of amazing. I cannot recommend it any higher."
"The most incredible voice I have ever heard. Her music to guide us through the ceremonies was incredible and on the night off she put on a concert for us, she went above and beyond the whole retreat."
"There is not a ratings system in place that would do Ayayni justice. The energy throughout the retreat was truly magical. From the moment of arrival, guests are treated with love, honesty and truth. The team are incredibly open and supportive, each bringing their own special gifts to the otherworldly proceedings. There is a deep respect and understanding amongst the facilitators for each and every process, each and every individual.
There is humor, there is sadness, there is trauma, grief, reflection and empathy. The scale of emotions experienced throughout the retreat is nothing short of spellbinding. Each emotion accepted, nurtured and facilitated by the fantastic team.
Breakfast and lunch each day is provided each day made with love (by the team) and one day we had a beautiful Paella from the restaurant down the road. Very fresh and tasty food all week. The communal meals are at a huge wooden table beside the kitchen, where conversation flows and silence is present.
The all-important integrations each morning are without doubt the best I have ever experienced. If you are open and willing to work on yourself and listen to others, Ayayni will give you a glimpse into what is achievable... if you hold the mirror up and honestly look at your reflection, and that of others.
The breath-work and fire ceremony are both invigorating and reflective, allowing each person a chance to open wide before the beginning of ceremony.
Every participant is naturally guided toward their healing path, and by the time the end arrives, there is not one who is leaving without a more intuitive understanding of their self. If you are looking for a place without judgement; a place to connect with yourself and others. If you are open to the possibility of change and the often difficult path that leads to it, I highly recommend Ayayni, a unique and extraordinary experience."
"I am so deeply grateful to have experienced a retreat with Ayayni. I can’t thank the team enough for facilitating such a loving and compassionate environment where I could allow myself to be at my most vulnerable whilst still feeling completely safe and understood. The experience was truly life changing and I look forward to continuing my journey to healing and power in future Ayayni retreats. The whole weekend was truly magical!"
"I will hold this experience in my heart forever. Everything was great, the organisation, the ceremonies, the medicines, the breath-work, the integration, the depth of the emotional work, the music and the accomodation. There were moments of grief, pain and rage and there was also a lot of laughter. We formed a fantastic tribe over the days that we were together and I look forward to the on-going group support.
"
"This retreat was out of this world! I had many expectations about my first medicine retreat, and Ayayni completely exceeded them. The ceremonies were so harmonious, with the live guitar and percussion throughout the night and into the early hours. The medicine was deep and challenging, and yet at other times nurturing. I discovered the depths of my soul during those ceremonies, and I will be eternally grateful for Olimpia's voice, which guided me through.
The integration sessions were beyond what I imagined they would be, as Jo's intuition hit the nail on the head every time and with every participant. Uncovering so much of my hidden truth in one retreat was not what I had expected, and I know that I will be able to use these insights for years to come. I highly recommend this experience."
"Lala has an exceptional talent for insight and guidance to brighten anyone's day."
"An amazing, loving and bubbly grandmother I never new I had."
"I had no idea what to expect coming to this retreat but now reflecting back I couldn't have picked a better place. The location, the team, the services and the atmosphere were all exceptional and literally mind blowing. I wish I could've stayed forever."

"Great yoga instructor, fantastic communication and great interpersonal skills."
"So full of life, happy and fun!
Witty!
Full of maternal energy and very caring!"
"The trip overall was really great.
Well organised, clear schedule / itinerary, healthy food and nice to have a Europe-based retreat.
The trip would have benefitted from more rest days between each ceremony rather than people being exhausted between ceremonies."
"It was such a beautiful treat as a first-timer to see that the shaman was a woman! When sitting at the altar, as she gives me the cup, I can't help but feel it's an angel, not a human being. Her face was lit by the candlelight. When she sang my entire body responded with all sorts of beautiful sensations. Her music brought me into my body like I've never experienced before. And when I had touch journeys, she was right there with me through it all. I am just so very lucky she was my shaman. OCAHE!"
"I can't say enough about this marvelous experience I had with Avalon. Everything was designed in such a way to make my journey a most wonderful one. I felt held and supported. For someone who has difficulty asking for help in the real world, this was an exercise of total surrender that I will hold close to my heart forever. I went full of fear and doubt if it would work for me, if it works at all etc... and I left with way more than I could ever expect. I was contemplating an ayahuasca retreat for around 8 or 10 years. I wish from the bottom of my heart that I had done it earlier. But all happens in good time. If I were to do it again, Avalon would be where I would go. The shaman, the music, the location, the venue, and the support team (those we met and those behind the scenes) were all so beautifully orchestrated into the most beautiful work of art to give us the experience of a lifetime. I highly recommend them. "
"Es war einer der schönsten abende die ich erfahren durfte 🕉️❤️🔥"
"Words cannot express how grateful I am to the people at Avalon/ WeAreAvalon.love for my incredible experience with Bufo/DMT. I had done quite a bit of research on possible locations and can say without question Avalon is the best there is. With any ceremony like this it's imperative to be in a safe, LEGAL loving environment with people you trust! From the safety screening process to the preparation calls to the ceremony with the medicine itself every step was designed for the optimal experience. BIG THANKS and MUCH LOVE to Ammy, Ness, Pierluigi and Lala for everything! "
"If you are reading this, you are in search of something - whether it is a way out of the darkness, a way to connect, a way to understand, a way to love; you have found a possible path. It takes courage to lift the vail, it takes courage to give yourself over to shaman, it takes courage to accept - if that feels right for you, Avalon will take care to nourish you with love.
I cannot tell you what you will receive -- if you have any experience with psychedelics, you may already know that you are given what you need, not what you want. I can tell you my experience, up to this moment - the bufo is still vibrating and gifting me even now - I have been reborn as a child of the light and bathed in the love of the universe. These words are clumsy and inadequate; it is a special and beautiful gift. It can be daunting and overwhelming; if you feel ready to step into the light, you have arrived where you should be. Aho, my friend, come dance with us in the stars..."
"This is my 3rd plant medicine experience with the Avalon family. I can honestly say I cannot imagine a more professional, loving, safe, spiritual environment to do plant medicine. Each and every member of the team I have met (many of them) exudes nothing but love, caring and compassion. The attention to detail and the organization are second to none. I cannot recommend them enough, and have done to many friends and my fiancé. So much gratitude to having been blessed with their support and service. Aho "
"An all encompasing wonderful experiene due to the care put into the ceremony, the music, the guiding instructions and all the prompts to get us engaged, as individuals and comunity. "
"I truly have no words to describe it.
It was a first time for me and it was perfect.
The team knew exactly what they were doing, how and when to do it, the space was nice, and everything felt as it was made with love.
Something I will never forget. Beyond words."
"My experience with the Sacred Mushrooms Deep Dive was astonishing. The team led the ceremony with utmost professionalism and empathy. I felt protected at any time. I could find some strong answers. During the ceremony, I was filled with beauty, love and gratitude. Now I feel stronger, deeper and sharper. Thank you."
"Words will never describe the true sense of the experience I had with Avalon Family during the ayahuasca retreat in August 2023. That feeling of love, gratitude and inclusion that space and people have provided us. One one side, it was an outstanding and mind-blowing experience, and at the same time so simple, flowing and so natural. And that’s what I appreciate the most about Avalon: the ability to combine both (Earth and Air, simple grounded things with smth bigger than this). There is no duality in there. There is no bad or good. It’s a wholesome which is sensed everywhere, starting from the way the program has been designed, finishing with the details, food … etc. You can see that Avalon cares about a holistic approach of healing and as a psychologist it is what I appreciated the most. Cause in the end of the end , the medicine we take, – is only a door opener, a subconscious mind shaker. And everything what has been raised during the ceremonies – we still need to deal with and process it afterwards. And that’s what Avalon teaches you. Or better saying: Avalon creates a greater space where you can learn and experience it yourself.
So so much gratitude to the whole family. Hope very much to see you all again."
"Participating in the Yawanawá Rapé Ceremony organized by Weareavalon was an extraordinary experience. The opportunity to receive rapé from an authentic and wise medicine man from the Amazon was powerfully transformative.
There's a distinct and potent essence that comes from engaging with people who are deeply rooted in a long lineage of traditions. This connection to the ancient ways brought a profound depth to the experience that is rarely found elsewhere.
I am sincerely grateful to Weareavalon for acting as a bridge to these authentic ancient traditions. They are truly custodians of these time-honored practices, enabling individuals like myself to connect with and learn from them. I wholeheartedly recommend Weareavalon to anyone seeking an authentic, enriching, and transformative experience."
"I got to the session without any expectations, in fact my tought process to register was one week before while I was navigating and looking for rape sessions in BCN. After en extremely busy work week (I would say extreme last 6 months) I got into the date and I had forgot about the session, thankfully my callendar remind me about this. I got there with an open mind and with the intention to learn to handled my anxiaiaty and to become wiser.
It’s been only 3 days after my session and one of the key things that I have noticed is that I am able to sleep - been having sleeping issues for the last 7 years- as a result of this I have noticed my anxiety has diminish.
I must confess that feels great to sleep 8 hours again, and every morning I love to have back the need to have an alarm clock !!
Thanks "
"My journey has finally begun. And I couldn't be more grateful that I was able to experience it with Avalon. I also had the honour of experiencing my first Rapé ceremony with the oldest shaman. It was enchanting and incredibly interesting and so much more. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this possible. The whole team is a stroke of luck.Thank youThankyouThankyou."
"The ceremony was loving, beautiful and energetically powerful. All the people brought their best energy to the ceremony: participants, Paula, the musicians and the entire team. The blessing of the flowers was an energetic cleansing shower for me and an opportunity to connect with my inner self. All thanks to AVALON."
"Participe en la activación Kundalini en el Festival of Consciousness… me sentí muy a gusto y cuidada. Me dejé llevar y tuve una experiencia bonita.
La música, increíble… te lleva por un viaje sensorial y tu cuerpo vibra con ella!"
"It was an amazing evening from start to finish. I felt welcomed and supported throughout the whole experience. The group intention and integration circle were especially meaningful, as they gave me a chance to connect and bond with everyone there. It was my first time trying Bufo Alvarius, and even though I was a little nervous at first, I soon felt comfortable and knew I was in good hands. There was live music, dancing, and creative expression, along with delicious fresh fruits and nuts. The nurturing environment made it a truly unique and unforgettable experience. Thank you! "
