15-Day Ayahuasca, Bobinsana and Huachuma Retreat in Peru
This 15 Day Ayahuasca Retreat in Peru is a structured healing process with Ayahuasca, Bobinsana, and Huachuma, where the work with the medicine unfolds through ceremony, plant treatments, and therapeutic integration.
A Comprehensive Cycle of Work with Plant Medicine
The 15-day retreat allows the work with the medicine to unfold over a longer period of time, offering continuity between ceremonies, plant treatments, and integration.
Within these days, participants are able to move through different stages of their experience, with space to process what emerges and to engage more deeply with the work.
This extended time can support the exploration of emotional patterns and experiences such as depression, trauma, or periods of inner difficulty that may require more space and attention.
In this way, the retreat holds a comprehensive cycle of work with the medicine, where each stage can be approached with time, structure, and support.
Working with Plant Medicine Over 15 Days
Working with plant medicine unfolds over time. This 15 Day Ayahuasca Retreat in Peru allows participants to remain with the process more gradually, with space to revisit what emerges, reflect more deeply, and continue engaging with the work through ceremony, traditional practices, and therapeutic integration.
Remaining with What Arises
With more days available, participants can stay with what emerges instead of moving through it too quickly, allowing the process to unfold with more patience, continuity, and care.
Returning to the Experience with More Depth
Emotions, insights, and inner patterns that appear in one moment can continue unfolding in the following days, creating the possibility of revisiting them with greater understanding.
Approaching Long-Standing Patterns Gradually
For some participants, this extended format may be especially supportive when working with deeper or long-standing emotional patterns that require more time and careful attention.
Being Supported Through the Full Arc of the Process
Ceremony, plant treatments, reflection, and therapeutic integration come together across the retreat, helping the process continue with more grounding, structure, and support.
A Process Guided by Three Master Plants
During this 15-day ayahuasca retreat in Peru, participants work with three master plants — Ayahuasca, Bobinsana, and Huachuma — each one accompanying different aspects of the work as it unfolds over time.
Opening and Guiding the Work
Ayahuasca ceremonies open and guide the central movement of the process, often bringing forward emotional patterns, memories, and internal movements that may require attention and care.
Supporting Emotional Integration
Bobinsana, a traditional Amazonian master plant associated with the emotional and heart-centered dimension, accompanies the Ayahuasca medicine throughout the retreat.
Grounding and Clarity in Nature
Huachuma ceremony takes place during the daytime in nature. Huachuma, a cactus medicine from the Andes, is traditionally approached as a medicine of clarity, grounding, and connection with the natural world.
Working with these three plants within the same retreat allows the process to continue developing across time. What is opened in one moment can be revisited and understood from different perspectives, supported through ceremony and integration.
How the 15-Day Retreat Unfolds
The 15-day ayahuasca retreat in Peru follows a structured sequence of ceremonies, traditional plant treatments, and integration spaces that support the work throughout the process.
Ceremonies and Traditional Plant Work
Throughout the retreat, participants take part in a series of ceremonies guided by experienced Amazonian shamans, combined with traditional plant treatments such as plant baths, mapacho cleansings, and rapé. These elements are woven into the process in a way that allows each experience to be approached with attention, while remaining connected to what unfolds over time.
A Balanced Rhythm
Rather than a continuous intensity, the retreat follows a natural rhythm where moments of depth are followed by space to integrate what has been experienced.
Guidance and Integration
Throughout the retreat, participants remain in direct contact with the shamans and receive ongoing guidance in relation to their process.
After each ceremony, integration sessions with psychotherapeutic support offer space to reflect on the experience and begin relating to it within a personal context.
Art therapy, rest, and conversation with the team further support the integration process as it continues to unfold.
