8 Day Ayahuasca & Bobinsana Retreat
A Deep Healing Journey With Two Master Plants
Welcome to our Ayahuasca Bobinsana Retreat in Peru — a powerful 8-day journey that brings together two sacred plants of the Amazon for deep healing, guided by native shamans and supported by creative psychotherapy.
Why Join Our 8-Day Ayahuasca & Bobinsana Retreat?
If you’re ready to go deeper, our 8-day Ayahuasca & Bobinsana Retreat offers an expanded journey into healing and insight. At Takinuna Healing Centre, we bring together two of the Amazon’s most powerful healing plants: Ayahuasca and Bobinsana. This sacred combination enhances emotional clarity, deep emotional processing and spiritual depth.
You’ll receive:
- Four Ayahuasca & Bobinsana ceremonies
- Integration with creative psychotherapy
- Personalized plant treatments guided by shamans
- Deep connection with nature in the Peruvian rainforest
This retreat is ideal for those seeking deeper transformation, emotional and spiritual growth — all held in a safe, authentic, and caring environment.
What Makes Bobinsana a Master Plant?
Bobinsana (Calliandra angustifolia) is treasured for its ability to open the heart, ease emotional burdens, and restore inner harmony. When blended with Ayahuasca, it softens the visionary process, allowing you to process revelations with compassion and clarity. This synergy enhances emotional release and spiritual clarity.
Why Combine Ayahuasca with Bobinsana?
While Ayahuasca is widely known for its visionary and purgative effects, Bobinsana is less commonly included in retreat settings — yet it holds immense healing power. Known as a gentle yet profound “heart opener,” Bobinsana enhances emotional sensitivity and deepens the healing experience of Ayahuasca.
At Takinuna, we intentionally brew both plants together, following ancestral Amazonian knowledge. This combination allows participants to access deeper emotional truths, with a greater sense of gentleness and compassion. It’s especially helpful for those who carry unprocessed grief, relational wounds, or inner blockages that require gentle resolution. This synergy makes our retreat stand out from traditional Ayahuasca experiences — and helps you feel held throughout your process.
Who Is This 8-Day Ayahuasca Bobinsana Retreat For?
Our 8-day Ayahuasca Bobinsana Retreat in Peru is designed for anyone who feels called to experience deep transformation. It is especially supportive for people navigating emotional pain, spiritual disconnection, or life transitions. While you don’t need prior experience with plant medicine, we recommend coming with a clear intention and openness to the process.
This retreat may be right for you if you feel emotionally closed off, overwhelmed by unresolved feelings, or longing to reconnect with love — both for yourself and others. The presence of Bobinsana in our ceremonies offers a unique opportunity to gently process emotional wounds, cultivate compassion, and open the heart. It is especially supportive for those seeking to work with grief, forgiveness, or relational healing. It is also a meaningful option for those who have already worked with Ayahuasca and want to explore the unique synergy that Bobinsana brings to the journey.
The four ceremonies explained
Four Ayahuasca & Bobinsana Ceremonies — Each with a Purpose
Ceremony One: Initiation and Dosage
Your first night opens the retreat with a measured dosage, allowing your body and spirit to adapt to the combined energy of Ayahuasca and Bobinsana. Our shamans administer a personalized amount of the brew to assess your energetic and physical response, prioritizing safety and balance. This initial session helps clear the surface-level energetic blockages and prepares your inner space for the deeper work ahead.
Ceremony Two: Deep Emotional Exploration
Now that trust has been established with the medicine, the second ceremony leads you into deeper emotional layers. Ayahuasca may present visions, memories, or symbolic journeys, while Bobinsana supports you in holding space for facing your emotions.
Ceremony Three: Integration and Protection
After two powerful journeys, the third ceremony emphasises the anchoring of insights. Bobinsana works gently on your heart while Ayahuasca consolidates what’s been opened. Shamans use protective practices like Mapacho and Camalonga to balance your energy field. This ceremony integrates your visions into your consciousness and prepares you for a sense of closure.
Ceremony Four: Completion and Arkana
The final ceremony is dedicated to protecting and closing your healing process. The shamans incorporate the arkana — a traditional spiritual protection practice — to help safeguard the energetic work done during the retreat. This ceremony marks the end of your Ayahuasca Bobinsana Retreat in Peru, but your process with the medicine continues after you leave.
Each person’s healing unfolds in its own time. For some, insights may emerge clearly during the retreat; for others, they may blossom slowly over days or weeks after returning home. What matters is that a seed has been planted — one that will continue to grow with care, patience, and self-compassion.
