AYAHUASCA AND SAN PEDRO CACTUS: A Perfect Balance of Feminine and Masculine Energies
Our retreats focus on two sacred plant medicines: Ayahuasca and Huachuma or San Pedro. They are very different in how they manifest, but complementary due the balance of inward and outward expression . Ayahuasca is "feminine" and focused on quiet introspection. Huachuma is "masculine" and more outward and celebratory. In this section we give you more information on each plant and how we work with them.
We also work with other sacred medicines that are tools to complement your journey. They are optional and not part of the retreat program. Read the information below, and if you feel the call to work with them we can arrange a session during the retreat or in a private ceremony.

Ayahuasca: La Abuelita
Ayahusca Vine
|
In our tradition, Ayahuasca is known as “Abuelita” (Grandmother in Spanish). This is in honor of her wise and healing nature and for gifting us with a deep connection to our inner selves. Ayahuasca is also called “La Medicina” (The medicine) but in this case it is medicine of the Soul. Unlike regular medicine that is narrow in its purpose and effects, Ayahuasca has an innate wisdom that will have a completely unique effect for each person partaking of it in the ceremony.
In most cases though, it will open your perception to a profound and transforming understanding of yourself and inner conditioning. |
Ayahuasca also has a unique “Purging” effect, a quality that is an integral part of her work on us and through a purging reflex, allows us to eliminate toxic memories and imprints.One of the most important elements in properly engaging with this sacred plant medicine is the environment and energy of the temple and Ayahuasca ceremony.
In our Costa Rica Ayahuasca retreats, we provide a safe environment where her work with you will be of the greatest benefit.

San Pedro Cactus (Huachuma)
Huachuma Cactus

As opposed to Ayahuasca that is private and introspective, the work we do with San Pedro is one of celebration and gratitude. San Pedro is a cactus with powerful visionary qualities that like Ayahuasca, has been used for millennia in the Peruvian Shamanic tradition.
The work is done in communion with “El Abuelo Fuego” (Grandfather Fire), and through our prayers and sacred tobacco, your guide will accompany us in dance and music as well as allow for moments of connective and comforting silence. |

PREPARING FOR AN AYRA HUASCA CEREMONY

Wayra in Quechua (language of a native people of Peru) means flight and Wayra huasca means “Ayahuasca Flight”. It is a plant medicine of introspection that allows us to meet the spirit of ayahuasca in its purest form. This encounter can manifest as a deep connection with Mother Earth.

Wayra-huasca is an extraction of Chakruna leaves (the plant that contains DMT), which in combination with a Capi tea (IMAO/liana of ayahuasca) allows us to access that deep level of consciousness.
how do you take wayra-huasca?
Wayra-Huasca is taken in a beautiful and respectful ceremony. First, participants in the ceremony are cleansed with Tobacco smoke, followed by tea of Capi (imao) followed by an application of Rapé. Half an hour after the ingestion of the tea, participants smoke the Chakruna extract.
The smoke is inhaled, held in a few seconds and at the moment of exhalation one enters the visionary world of ayahuasca, where it is possible to experience the connection between all things.

HOW LONG DOES THE EFFECT OF 5-MEO-DMT LAST?
The medicine continues working for days, in a gradual and diminished form. The encounter with this medicine can generate a massive release of accumulated stress, emotions and repressed feelings. It also can dissolve cellular memories that result in addictions, compulsions or psychosomatic illnesses. This is a remarkable gift of nature that in addition to helping us in our path of healing gifts us an encounter with our divine nature.
