Find Authentic Retreats in Premi De Mar Spain

"Well where do I start! I first found Ayahuasca 9 years ago and have had some amazing journeys but I always wanted to experience ceremonies in a more traditional way which the retreats I went on before did not do. After a 5 year break I looked over many months for somewhere to go and as soon as I saw the Mira retreats i knew that this was the one!! And boy o boy was I right. From the first moment of talking to Paula on the phone who listened to me and showed me such love to theWell where do I start! I first found Ayahuasca 9 years ago and have had some amazing journeys but I always wanted to experience ceremonies in a more traditional way which the retreats I went on before did not do. After a 5 year break I looked over many months for somewhere to go and as soon as I saw the Mira retreats i knew that this was the one!! And boy o boy was I right. From the first moment of talking to Paula on the phone who listened to me and showed me such love to the arrival at the beautiful retreat which is magical. All my fears melted away when I met the beautiful team Daniel, Paula Xavi and Dragon and other voyagers. Opening with a lovely opening circle where I felt safe to share my inner most feelings. The ceremonies were so powerful done with authentic jungle medicine and following the tradional Shamanic indigenous ancestry of the Cofan tradition. Daniel is a healer beyond words and worlds leading the ceremonies playing powerful live icaroes from the jungle. A powerful humble warrior magician who will guide you through to the light. Paula's voice and guitar playing melts the soul and is such a loving spirit of nature. Xavi a protective loving guardian ever present and Dragon a mischievous spirit who will make you smile and laugh out loud in or out of ceremony. Many thanks to Kateryna who’s beautiful voice and guitar brought so much light. My kambo experience with Paula and Xavi was nothing short of miraculous. As a first time Kambo taker I was apprehensive but I felt so safe every second of it and seeing miraculous results in my body since taking it. I really can t thanks the MIRA team enough for what they do. Chosen by Ayahuasca to help heal the world with their love and humility. I will only be going to their retreats now and feel so honoured to be part of this beautiful family. "

"Susy was amazing during the bufo retreat, kind and caring and really supportive towards myself and the rest of the team, during and after the session had finished. Thank you so much Susy "

"I had a one to one phone call with Ammy at the beginning before deciding if I wanted to go with Avalon and straight away she made me feel comfortable, she listened to my story and answered all of my questions right up until the day of the retreat, I had many questions regrading the diet, where to eat in Barcelona and about the retreat itself and when ever i messaged she replied with answers. Ammy and the whole crew was amazing. Thank you so much "

"Ness was our shaman/ woman during the bufo retreat and she was absolutely amazing, so caring and passionate about her work, I felt so comfortable with her from the moment we met, she gave me a big hug and her energy was something else, such a beautiful person thank you so much Ness"

"I went to Barcelona on the 3rd of August 2024 for a bufo alvarius retreat with Avalon. I was extremely nervous about this one, I've done ayahuasca in peru in after following a calling back in 2022 and it was the most terrifying experience of my life, however it completely changed my life for the better in so many ways. After, I felt a calling for bufo so I spent some time doing my research which is very important with these kind of experiences and I came across Avalon with great reviews I decided to message and go for the one to one video call with Ammy which was great there and then, I decided to book the retreat in Barcelona Ammy made me very comfortable, she listened to my story of why I wanted this and she answered all of my questions. And continued to help me right up until the day of my retreat. When I arrived I was welcomed and made to feel very comfortable, I was very nervous but they really calmed my nerves, the facilitators and shaman very professional and after some meditation and breath work we did the bufo and it was the most incredible experience of my life, I instantly surrendered and they took good care of us, when I came back to my body I was laughing and smiling I felt amazing, and that wasn't the end of it, they then fed us delicious fruits and we then all shared our experiences with each other , we was all supposed to be there we helped one an other through the journey we was a family in this moment and it was beautiful. I highly recommend Avalon to anybody looking for healing with bufo. "

" A comprehensive and complex retreat - carefully thought out and planned, but still felt process-oriented and organically carried out. Oliver and Carla really know what they are doing, very experienced, knowledgeable and skilled at both creating a good group dynamic and individual follow-up of each individual. I felt very well looked after - right from the first interview beforehand, during the retreat, and to the integration interview afterwards. It is clear that Oliver and Carla know a lot about the importance of set and setting, which was emphasized by the execution and the location they have chosen for the retreat. Although the pictures on the website are nice, they do not reflect how wonderfully beautiful and nicely situated this place is and how special it felt to be there!"

"I am absolutely delighted and satisfied with the retreat organized by the wonderful Mira team. My experience was truly unique and amazing. The staff is incredibly dedicated and passionate about their work, demonstrating extensive knowledge and expertise. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Xavier, Paula, Dani, Axel, Samith and everyone I met during the ceremony. I wholeheartedly recommend Mira without any reservations – they are truly wonderful people."

"I had many worries walking into this experience- I am in a peculiar time in my life, a dark time where I inately knew that I would need to be in concious and safe hands. Paula and Javi took all my concerns seriously- the serious ones and the more silly ones. They took time out of their day to give me well-thought out and intricate responses to all of my enquiries. A friend and I had informed them about our situation (a difficult sociopolitical situation) before coming and they held our predicament with high regard, relaying to Tatia Samith our situation and making sure we were cared for before, during and after ceremony. I usually aniticipate people to invalidate my experience or to not give it the weight it deserves- but the MIRA team were tender, wise and balanced in their approach. With them, I could let my guard down and focus solely on my healing without being hyper alert to any external threat. Every single person on the team was a blessing to have. Paula- a gentle healer with hands and a heart of gold. Javi, a child-like spirit with the wisdom of a protective elder. Danny- a sensitive warrior with a sureness in him that takes any fears away. And finally Taita Samith- God and Aya’s loyal and humble servant, a Jaguar and Parrot spirit with a Love that can feed the entire Earth. After this experience, I will not be joining any other team or retreat. The ceremonies took place in nature and Aya seemed to be familiar with her children (the MIRA team) and could work with us knowing that she was with people of integrity and that she was given the respect and honor she deserves. Its hard to find a retreat that is authentic, decolonial and not rooted in commercialization of the indeginious cultures. MIRA is just that. They serve the world from the heart and not from the ego or because of any external reward. Their medicine is Truth before anything else. Forever grateful for this experience and to have been in the presence of such historical indigenious ancestry (the Cofan tradition) that made it safe for my own ancestors to appear and recieve the Love they deserve. I will be coming back again and again and again, knowing that I lay in pure hands. Al hamdellah Lulu"

"Isa was very good at helping me feel so comfortable and safe. Her way with the tea bath and spirit cleanse allowed me to open up fully to be ready to embrace all that came. The journalling really helped me to focus on what I needed to focus on. I released so much anger. I just feel so much more at peace with my faults and with my strengths. I don’t put up with what I use to any more, I love myself deeper and I strive for better because of it and I thank Isa for all of this. I will go back one day. Thank you Isa. "

"Thanks to Isa for creating the perfect space for transformation, while allowing the guest the freedom to have their own moments with god. I’m already planning my next trip to see her down in Mazunte and strongly recommend her guidance and powerful presence to any seeking a deeply profound experience!"

"While I don't think psychedelics are for everyone, and it is important to be honest with yourself and your guide / host, I did find this to be exactly what I needed. My experience was primarily an emotional release. I had been particularly affected by symptoms of my CPTSD and BPD following the end of my marriage and triggered into being stuck in unexpressed grief, anxiety, dissociation, and emotional paralysis. I had the intention of moving my stuck energy and seeking clarity. I surrendered to the road medicine - which I think was important because it is very powerful. I felt safe and grounded in my intention though I was naturally a little nervous in anticipation. Just laying on a mat on the ground in Isa's backyard in San Agustinillo after having done the allusions and prayers and meditation. My experience was that it came on strong and right away I was transported somewhere else. I don't remember anything else except that I engaged with my grief and the paradox of my inability to let go or stay with a marriage that was no longer working. I wept and cried more than I ever have and subsequently was able to slowly shift my emotional dynamic. Much of that work was through some somatic work beginning with Ximena Hridaya also in San Agustinillo - and my masseuse and psychotherapist back home. My only qualm was my wrong expectation that there would be more in the way of integrative work included but I understand now that that is a larger process that I needed to facilitate with other helpers, which I did. Thank you Isa for holding and protecting the space for me to have this important and healing experience!"

"My time with Oliver and Carla from After the Rains was wonderful. From delicious, local produce, to unbelievably comfortable mattresses, to the most magical setting, everything was beyond expectations. The ceremony and individual experience was well cared for and it felt very special seeing the ceremonial space for the first time as so much thought had gone into it. My psilocybin experience was only made better by Oliver and Carla's presence and genuine respect for the drug and it's potential. I particularly enjoyed how all ones senses had been catered for; instruments for sound, burning pine resin for smell, the option of an eye mask for sight, ginger sweets and lemon tek for taste (as well as nausea), lavender weighted cushion for smell and touch, and a blanket for touch. I was also very grateful to be shown, and learn, how to extract the psilocybin from the mushrooms into a lemon tek, rather than eating the mushrooms directly. I attended the retreat with my friend, and we both got on really well with our fellow participants. We were completely different people from all over the world but we felt connected through our personal journeys and reasons for being on the retreat. Thank you Oliver & Carla <3"

"Oliver and Carla are true caretakers for anyone attempting to reclaim peace and sanity in their lives. They are intuitive, kind, and masters of their craft. Every detail was in place, from getting us to the retreat at the train station to asking questions about our dietary needs and showing up in a way that would make you feel heard and seen. The yoga classes and cuisine were first-class. I could not imagine two finer people holding the space for those who are called to it. "

"Very warm, friendly and professional people, as well as my fellow guests at the event. As a newcomer to the psychedelic ceremonies, I don't think I could've found a better group for my first experience, especially for the price"

"My experience at the ayahuasca ceremony was exceptional. The event was well-organized in a beautiful location, with excellent food. The Shaman leading the ceremony was truly amazing, providing a transformative and safe experience. The facilitators were compassionate and knowledgeable, and the sense of community was uplifting. I highly recommend this ceremony to anyone seeking personal growth. "

"The founders of Shamanzon, Joel & Martín, are two individuals who hold themselves to a high standard of integrity and it shows. Their presentation of their collaboration and the space / container they create for communal healing is accurate: they deeply honour the lineages these spiritual traditions spring from and it shows in every aspect of the construction of the space. They honour these lineages not by picking up a melange of different rituals and de-contextualising them from the cultures these practices spring from, and not by naming themselves as 'shamans' and pouring the medicine in a western context, but by bringing over their teachers, now their friends, from the Amazon and simply faciliating a space whereby those who are truly within the lineage and have mastered these medicine paths can do their work. It's hard to find such a space, and it's very clear the founders aren't themselves 'in it' for money or for shine, they're in it because these plant medicines speak to their souls and because their initiated teachers have affected their lives and they want to share this with others. Beautiful space, well-tended, sensitive and delicate, and extremely fair fees to boot. Can't recommend these folk and the space they've created enough. "

"Very happy with my experience at Shamazon! Lovely location, beautiful people. Felt safe and well taken care of."

"Based at that stunning foothills of the Alpens, with the base for the retreat being an amazingly renovated farm house- the retreat is a welcome get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life! You'll spend your days cooking, hiking, do yoga and forming a close bond with your fellow participants- all being more than ably facilitated from start to finish by Carla and Oliver- thanks both for a lovely break!"

"It was beyond my imagination. The organisers looked after everyone tenderly."

"A really well thought out coaching programme and retreat! Such a gorgeous location to relax and feel safe to explore your feelings while being nurtured with the most delicious food, people and surroundings. Marion and Suzanne were incredible hosts and facilitators who are obviously very good therapists too. James was amazing at the shadow work workshop and Sebastian has to be one of the most incredible musicians that I've ever heard. To have a live musician who is in tune to your personal journey and process, makes the whole mushroom experience so much more powerful and magical. Every detail was thought out well and the fact that they concentrate on having a small group, allows you to feel safe and nurtured at all times. I will definitely be going again! Couldn't recomend highly enough."

"I understand now Mother Ayahuasca always gives you what you need. The manner in which you come to her is the manner in which you get your answer. So present to her with respect and admiration with gratitude and that's what you'll get. There are no mistakes. "

"I enjoyed my time with the Shamanzon family. The facilitators were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable in what they needed to do to support everyone. The accommodation is excellent; a beautiful, clean and comfortable house in a wonderful location with breathtaking views 😍 Delicious food, lovingly prepared, we were well fed! This was not my first time taking Ayahuasca, but it was my first time experiencing it in mainly silence, which I found quite difficult but I plan to return and attend another retreat with the Shamanzon family. Thank you all! Purple 💜 🇯🇲 ♉"

"My psilocybin journey was a deeply transformative voyage into the depths of my psyche, where I confronted aspects of myself that had long been hidden beneath the surface. As ego boundaries dissolved, I gained profound insights into my thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, laying the foundation for profound personal growth and introspection. The guidance and support provided by Suzanne, Marion, James, and Sebastian were instrumental in guiding me through the labyrinth of the psychedelic experience. Their expertise and empathy created a nurturing environment in which I felt empowered to explore the recesses of my mind without fear or judgment. Whether offering gentle reassurance or profound insights, they demonstrated a deep understanding of the transformative power of psilocybin. The surroundings in which my journey unfolded were nothing short of breathtaking. Surrounded by the serene beauty of the outside area and the cozy comforts of the indoor setting, every detail was meticulously curated to enhance the overall experience. Above all, Suzanne, Marion, James, and Sebastian created an atmosphere of safety and trust that allowed me to fully surrender to the psychedelic experience. Their unwavering presence and compassionate care ensured that I felt supported and protected throughout the journey, enabling me to navigate the depths of my subconscious with courage and resilience. In conclusion, my psilocybin journey was a profound odyssey of self-exploration and transformation, made possible by the exceptional guidance of Suzanne, Marion, James, and Sebastian, and the awe-inspiring surroundings that enveloped me. Through their collective efforts, they created a safe and nurturing space in which I could embark on a journey of inner discovery, emerging with newfound insights, clarity, and lightness."

"I participated in their 3 night retreat and was very happy to be called to that place and those people. The communication was easy and straightforward before, during and after the retreat, also many languages were spoken - so that gave it an easy start. My accommodation was in a single room because I prefer privacy - it was nice, clean, cosy and comfortable. As a matter of fact all the facilities are so much better in real life than on the photos here! The food was plentiful and nutritious, the hosts and facilitators were caring all the time. For me it was very important to have authentic shamans while doing the medicine, so having Taita Josè Antonio and Mamita Yolimar conduct the ceremonies and being available for discussion only made the experience more valuable and profound. I shall definitely return and can only recommend Shamanzon, because here one can combine authenticity, deep healing and value for money. Thank you 🙏🏻"

"We didn't talk with words with Mamita Yolimar Loreto Robles but we did that in a telepathic way and I am so glad of the experience and conclusions which came to me during the ceremony. I loved her singing and talking about the blessings we have and how important is to be aware of this. Listen to your inner divine self and do as you feel, because the medicine will give you all you need and not what you want ❤️❤️❤️"

"I took the medicine for the first time with Taita Jose and I am so glad for this choice, the medicine was so nice to me and I had a very inspirational experience. I would advise for the first time not to make any expectations, just let yourself free and flow. An important aspect I would like to share is to follow all the recommendations and restrictions before and during the ceremony. Listen to your inner divine self and do as you feel, because the medicine will give you all you need and not what you want ❤️❤️❤️ I left with a very god advice from Taita which I am trying to apply in my daily life: do everything with passion and nothing with obligation. "

"If you are looking for a retreat, and you arrived on this site and you read this, this is for a reason. I took the medicine for the first time with Shamanzon and I am so glad I trusted to them this experience. They gave me the sufficient amount of details and information I needed before the ceremony, during and even after, I feel free to contact them with questions because the ceremony is just the starting of a new page of your new life book. There are no wrong or correct questions so do not hesitate to address all of them. I would advise for the first time not to make any expectations, just let yourself free and flow. The most important aspect is that Shamanzon brings the real and authentic shamans on their retreats and they do a good translation during the ceremony. I will definitely join again when Taita José Antonio Jansasoy and Mamita Yolimar Loreto Robles will come again to Shamanzon and I want to go there with my mother ❤️ An important aspect I would like to share is to follow all the recommendations and restrictions before and during the ceremony, this will help you to have a pleasant ceremony and less adverse events, this I am telling you as a pharmacist ☺️ I followed all the recommendations and even more, I stopped the alcohol about 5 months before, no smoking for 3 years, no coffee, no meet few days before the ceremony and in the morning I had my bin clean. Listen to your inner divine self and do as you feel, because the medicine will give you all you need and not what you want ❤️❤️❤️"

"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."
