We are really happy to offer you this journey to the Amazon forest (Pucallpa), to work deeply in contact with the Shipibo indigenous masters. We will live from fourteen to twentyeight daysin complete spiritual isolation inside the unpkugged nature of peruvian jungle, letting go all the conforts and all the distractions that prevent us to be fully in contact with ourselfves. This is the ideal setting both for making a diet of Master Plants, and for experiencing the ceremonies of Oni Kahua, the sacred drink of the shipibo people, which in Peru is considered a national cultural heritage.

The retreat were we will stay it’s far from the commercial logics that often, nowadays, surround the experience with indigenous medicine throughout South America: with this trip we wanted to offer as much as possible an authentic experience of true indigenous tradition. The curandero with whom we will work is definitely oriented to not sell off his tradition to adapt to the whimsical demands of Westerners and, while striving to make its center as comfortable as possible, his way of working with master plants has not undergone excessive contamination due to modernity.

What is a Master Plants dieta?
The diet of Master Plants is a practice of care and apprenticeship developed by the indigenous peoples of the Amazon, through which you come into contact with the spirit of plants, to receive from them care and teachings During the period of diet we observe a restricted diet and a voluntary social isolation, to allow the plant’s voice to be more clearly recognizable within us. Diet can be a very deep tool of healing and personal evolution, to learn more go here: diet of master plants
What is Oni Kahua?
Oni Kahua is a decoction made from two plants native to the Amazon rainforest, used by indigenous peoples in a ritual way for healing and divination purposes. Drinking Oni Kahua provides an amplification of consciousness that allows people to navigate the realms of spirit: these inner journeys can lead to the release of strong emotions and the understanding of deep personal issues. If you have never experienced Oni Kahua, we will evaluate your participation during the phone interview, as there are contraindications to consider.
