“The longest journey you will ever take is the 18

inches from your head to your heart.”

-Thich Nhat Hanh

THE INVITATION

IS for those that long to plunge into the

wisdom and the mysteries of the heart.

Step out of the chaos of everyday life and leave behind what no longer serves. It is time to step into the beating heart of Pachamama for a life-altering journey like no other.

Participate in ancient practices and sacred ceremonies facilitated by experienced and knowledgeable guides that will lead you to the revitalizing and regenerative edges of your deepest desires and heartbreak.

I'm all in.

THE TRANSFORMATION

The heart knows no boundaries. It already knows where we must go if only we gather the courage to slow down, be quiet and listen.

For those ready to heed the call,

Mystery beckons you on the adventure of a lifetime.

While we have no idea what your heart has in store for you, we can say this with confidence: venture into the mysteries of your heart and you will not return the same.

THE SANCTUARY

Theeco-retreat center is nestled in the forested mountains overlooking thesacred, sapphire waters of Lake Atitlan and its three prehistoricvolcanoes.

Surround yourself in towering emerald-green canopies, the singsong of birds and the gentle whispers of the wind.

Imbibe the extravagant sunrises and sunsets that punctuate the crisp, summer days and magical, starry nights.

Meltaway your tensions in the mayan sauna, cleanse yourself in a fragrantflower bath, wander meandering cobble stoned paths and gaze out acrossthe Sierra Madre from the nest of your hammock.

We will gather in a vibrant, jungle sanctuary cultivated to foster deep spiritual connection.

THE CEREMONY

We have designed our time together to be one long ceremony with the heart of our work centering around our journey with the sacred psilocybin mushrooms facilitated by experienced guides rigorously trained for over three years in an Amazonian shamanic lineage.

In all you will participate in 4 sacred ceremonies:

- We will open the work by honoring the land, invoking spirit and stating our intentions with a traditional Mayan fire ceremony guided by Tomas, a local, indigenous shaman knowledgeable in the old ways

- We will begin gently courting the heart and initiating the relationship with the mushrooms with the help of cacao, a local plant medicine known for it’s heart-opening qualities, in a cacao ceremony with a mushroom microdose.

- We will continue to open the way with a somatic release breathwork ceremony

- After much preparation, we will dive deep into the depths of the heart with a full-dose mushroom ceremony

The Practices

All week, our team of skilled facilitators will aid you in preparing for and integrating your journey with the sacred mushrooms.

You’ll be guided through a variety of carefully curated exercises, meditative practices, and facilitated discussions designed to deepen your experience and guide you to your edges.

You'll learn ancient and modern techniques to commune with nature, tap into your innate wisdom and embrace a more authentic and purpose-driven life.

The COmmunity

We do this work in community.

You will be embraced by a heart-centered sangha of kindred spirits, each on their own unique journey of healing, discovery and connection.

Forge deep connections, share transformative experiences, and create lifelong friendships with like-minded individuals within a community dedicated to supporting your continued unfolding long after the retreat ends.
