🔍 Critical Notes
Ayahuasca Retreats
Our ayahuasca retreat program is thoughtfully designed to provide you with an ideal healing experience, allocating ample time for meditation, self-reflection, and the integration of the profound experiences you will encounter during your stay. By prioritizing these essential components of the healing journey, we foster an environment that supports healing, personal growth, transformation, and lasting positive change.
We firmly believe that maintaining small, familiar group sizes is key to ensuring a powerful and personalized healing experience. By limiting our retreats to a maximum of 10 guests, we are able to facilitate in-depth group sharings with the shamans and they will provide individual energetic healing sessions for each participant during every ceremony. This level of attention and care would not be possible in larger groups, and we are committed to upholding this intimate setting to optimize your healing journey.

Reviews
Imagine a place where every rustle of leaves feels like a whisper from ancient ancestors. That’s what I experienced at La Luna Del Amazonas. The retreat’s energy was palpable from the start—a heady mix of indigenous wisdom and modern healing that touched every fiber of my being. During the ceremonies, I felt a deep connection not only with myself but with the land, as if every droplet of rain and ray of sunlight was part of a sacred dialogue. The integration sessions were a forum for raw, honest sharing that made me feel understood beyond words. I left with a renewed sense of purpose, heart full of gratitude, and a conviction that true healing comes from embracing both your light and your shadows.
In the heart of the jungle at La Luna Del Amazonas, I encountered an experience that was as powerful as it was uncompromising. The retreat’s raw energy set the stage for ceremonies that challenged me to confront deep-seated fears and embrace hidden parts of my identity. There were moments when the intensity was almost too much, and I found myself struggling to hold onto the delicate insights the medicine offered. Additionally, while the communal aspects of the retreat were genuinely supportive, the pace of the integration sessions occasionally left me wishing for more personalized guidance. Even with these challenges, the overall impact was profound—I now carry a newfound clarity and determination to face life head-on. It’s an experience that demands your full presence, but the rewards are immeasurable.
My experience at La Luna Del Amazonas was a blend of striking revelations and moments of uncertainty. The retreat’s jungle setting is undeniably magical, and the ceremonies delivered potent bursts of clarity that made me reexamine long-forgotten parts of myself. Yet, the overall journey was uneven—while some sessions left me in awe of the insights I received, others felt disjointed and lacking in personal follow-up. I often found that the group integration discussions, though well-meaning, were too generic to address the depth of my individual experience. The raw intensity of the medicine was apparent, but without consistent, tailored support, I struggled to fully integrate the lessons into my everyday life. In the end, I left with a mix of valuable insights and lingering questions, uncertain if the journey would truly lead to lasting transformation.
Under a vibrant, emerald canopy, a transformation unlike any I’d known unfolded at La Luna Del Amazonas. That first moment—when the humid air, soft jungle sounds, and gentle glow of the setting sun wrapped around me—felt as though nature itself was welcoming me home. In one ceremony, I experienced an emotional cascade so powerful it seemed to dissolve the barriers of my past, leaving me raw and reborn. Every ritual here was a journey into the depths of my being, where memories and pain were honored and released. I emerged with clarity and an inner light that continues to guide my days. This retreat isn’t just a pause from life; it’s a profound rebirth.
La Luna Del Amazonas thrust me into a whirlwind of emotion from the very beginning. Set in a mesmerizing jungle, the retreat offered a powerful mix of intense ceremonies and moments of serene reflection. I experienced a tidal wave of feelings—joy, sorrow, fear, and ultimately relief—that sometimes left me breathless. While the potency of the medicine was undeniable, I found that the integration phase occasionally felt rushed; I often needed more space to fully process the raw revelations. Despite these bumps, the overall journey was transformative, and I walked away with insights that continue to echo in my daily life. It was a wild, unforgettable ride into the depths of my soul.
