"This retreat gave me a depth to the human experience I didn’t even know was possible. It helped me meet "myself" on a deeply intimate level and strengthened my connection with myself in ways I never imagined. I felt supported every step of the way—before, during, and after—by Jo and the team. They created a safe, authentic space that allowed me to fully embrace what I needed from the experience. When I researched, I found it was competitively priced for everything it offers compared to other retreats and the five-star reviews I read beforehand were accurate. I will go again if I get the calling..I’ve already recommended it to friends who are on this path . If you’re reading this and feel ready to meet yourself more deeply, with genuine support this is for you. "

"The Ayayni team are so incredible at providing a safe inclusive environment which is so conducive to the whole process. I’ve laughed, cried, purged, loved, screamed and realised so much over this past weekend. Felt so supported through the weekend, I can’t wait to connect with these beautiful people again. "

Belinda October, 2024

"What a beautiful and deep experience with like-minded people as well as being wonderfully held in a fantastic location! I am so glad that I traveled for this retreat. The integration with Jo offers so much at such a deep level. It was way beyond what I expected to gain. The observations are raw, provocative and always honest. I would recommend Ayayni , as they provide a safe and nurturing environment. "

"Almost a week has passed since returning home from the most incredible weekend! Was by far the best thing I could have done for myself, and in turn my family. It sounds cliche, but it really was an awakening for me. I’ll never be the same, in the best possible way. I have hope for the future now, more patience and understanding for my kids and I feel like so much anger, resentment and rage I was holding on to from past experiences has just lifted. I feel like this is just the start of my journey, personally. But my goodness what a start! ❤️ To the beautiful souls I met, the beautiful house for holding us, the beautiful food we ate, the beautiful medicine, and the beautiful facilitators for looking after us and keeping us safe - Thank you, thank you! 🌿 Just wow 🤯🙏🏼"

Alexander August, 2024

"I am so deeply grateful to have found Ayayni. The experience was truly life changing and I look forward to continuing my journey in future retreats. The whole weekend was truly magical! I highly recommend this retreat to everyone. "

Rowena August, 2024

"It feels like I’ve found Ayayni at the perfect time. It's wonderful to find a place and people where you feel really understood and safe to explore aspects of yourself. Although I’ve only dipped my toes into self-exploration I feel like I’ve finally found some direction and coming from a chaotic background that’s huge. The retreat is very well organised from first communication to extensive informational brochure to post-process integration. Jo's insight is like no other i have experienced and the music of Olimpia and Francesco was out of this world. "

Iain August, 2024

"I had an amazing week with Jo and her lovely team. Jo really knows her stuff and an amazing advisor. This retreat will really allow you to deep dive into your mind and to really get to know yourself. I'll be back"

"Wonderful atmosphere, caring and friendly people around. It was nice to be a part of it for a while. "

Philip June, 2024

"I would like to say a massive heart felt thank you to Ayayni and all of the Team. Once again you have pulled me back from the brink of self-destruction. You were there to pull me out of 12 years of darkness and depression. A few years later you are here again, helping me to heal my trust issues. The Barcelona retreat was next level, honestly guys I was absolutely blown away, I felt so blessed. The live music hit deep and took me deeper than I've ever been before. The location and atmosphere created was pure perfection, so beautiful and peaceful. Jo, you have a way of clearing away all unnecessary content, you cut through my story and get to the root everytime. It's true what they say about Ayayni, it is literally 10 years of thearpy in a few days. Thank you, I love you. "

Badal June, 2024

"Writing about someone or an establishment differs from being at a loss for words. Ayayni falls into the latter category, where words can't fully capture the love, empathy, and care they show every participant. The team at Ayayni seems divinely inspired as if sent from the heavens to care for not just every retreat participant, but humanity as a whole. The immaculate process they have designed heals us from what blocks our true potential, through their compassionate generosity, knowledge of ancient rituals, and deep understanding of each participant's life story. Jo, like a nurturing mother, guides and accompanies you throughout the process as the shaman, playing an integral part of the journey. Olympia's angelic music and beautiful voice help you traverse extraordinary realms. Davide is an excellent musician and wonderful facilitator, and the Kirtan by Davide and Irene (Atma Dharma) is beautifully conducted. At the end of the retreat, it feels like parting from family, with a bond never experienced before. Ayayni is the best retreat, combining a practical approach with ancient practices."

"I was new to Ayahuasca and a bit nervous. I felt safe and cared for throughout the retreat. The group was absolutely amazing, and the facilitators demonstrated care and intention throughout. "

"How to translate in words so much beauty, peace, joy and love that have arisen in me thanks to this experience. This has been my second Ayayni experience, first being in Ireland exactly a year ago. Although I am actually doing wonderful now, after dealing with a severe depression and consequences of an unhappy childhood my whole life, I am not taking my mental health for granted, which is why I decided to take part in another retreat. And what a treat for the soul. From wonderful music, incredible ceremonies, guidance from Jo an her team in integrating the healing power of medicine that helped me clean up my unhealthy patterns I developed as a child to survive and that are now holding me back while still finding acceptance and love for my journey and myself to wonderful people who have attended the retreat. I’m so grateful for all the roads that have led me here and for all the care I was provided with. Love you guys"

"Olympia held a lot of the ceremonies during the retreat, she has such a lovely essence and the most angelic voice."

"This woman definitely knows her stuff. I felt very safe and looked after and the setting was so calm and peaceful. Two weeks since the retreat and I literally feel reborn, I feel so positive and calm it has helped me heal parts of myself that still needed looking at. I’m so grateful to Jo and her team for holding this retreat it has benefited me so much."

"Amazing weekend held by beautiful people who guide you on a healing and insightful journey. Brilliant location with great food and facilities. It has been the most transforming weekend of my life and I will continue on this path. Love to the team at Ayayni. Words cannot even describe what I feel; I am so happy to have been a part of that."

Ian May, 2024

"An experience never forgotten! Love and care was a paramount from start to finish. The facilitators were great with experience and compassion. Jo was so kind and helped me start to overcome issues that I now have a little knowledge and tools to help me along my way. My journey has only just begun. I will be visiting Ayayani again and would not hesitate to give 5 stars! Thanks Ian "

Stewart May, 2024

"This was a life changing experience. The care, guidance and people all made this a fantastic first step in my spiritual journey. Jo is very skilled at her work and the facilitators all showing respect, care and guidance during the ceremonies and also during the day. Everything was well planned and all the tools given with regular integrations. A must for anyone starting or going through their journey. I will recommend this to retreat to all my friends and family. Book now, you won’t regret it. Thank you ALL so so much. X"

"So grateful for my experience. I feel like I released a life's worth of pain and more. You feel very held and safe on this retreat. Jo is very perceptive and great at giving people what they need. The integration element is perfect and Jo is highly knowledgeable. Both Jo and Olimpia are very kind and the ceremonial live music is soooooooo beautiful. Highly recommend. I will be forever grateful. Bee xx"

John May, 2024

"Thank you to Ayayni for such a life changing experience last week in Barcelona. Jo, Olimpia, Jola and Davide were so welcoming and professional through the whole week. The knowledge that you all shared with us was given with such care and meaning that it has awoken a drive in me that I had forgotten was there. The setting was so peaceful and beautiful it really added to the magical experience. From the food and all the music you played to the friends we all made it really is a special experience. I thank you all again for sharing your time and wisdom. See you again in July!"

Anonymous April, 2024

"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."

Anonymous April, 2024

"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."

Laura April, 2024

"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."

Scott April, 2024

"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."

Ryan April, 2024

"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!"

Matt April, 2024

"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. "

Matt April, 2024

"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."

"Life Changing, beautiful! Bufo Alvarius Cerimony was the moment that touch me really deep. I will Raccomend Wanay Retreats to my friends and Family."
