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. I curanderos with whom we will work have managed to maintain the tradition as much as possible while adapting to the needs of Westerners. Jorge and Sulmira are waiting for us to accompany us on our journey of learning and healing, with all their authenticity and heart.

What is a Wise Plants dieta?
The diet of Wise 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 wise 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.
