Plant Medicine Wisdom

The Yucatan extra peninsula possesses the largest underground river system in the world. It was formed by a meteor hitting the Earth, which started during the last ice age. Water from this original meteor is still contained in the system underground cenote water is specially mineralized and possesses unique healing properties. Our private Tulum cenote provides the vortex for our Plant Medicine Wisdom Retreat.

Plant Medicine Retreat is held at our remote and Centre Cenote Ixchel Garden , weaves ancestral living wisdom living in harmony with nature to provide a foundation to both discover and develop the innermost purpose of your life.

During this retreat you will immerse into the magnificent realm of Mother Nature through the foundational practices of remembrance, initiation rites, sacred plant ceremonies and modern day context to establish intercultural bridges,Yoga/meditation, is tailored to awakening consciousness in all beings. Our purpose is to create a space where participants, including ourselves, can continually discover and implement a life of greatest purpose and deepest meaning.

Beyond humanity’s diverse stories and personalities, there’s a profound mystery within each of us that the organism longs to be re-initiated into – a fully conscious evolutionary journey of returning to the source.

This retreat brings about a consciousness transformation involving a profound self-realization process. The process includes physical, mental, spiritual and emotional detoxification. The participants will be high functioning and mentally stable, such that they are willing and able to face without compromise - and with our graceful support and direction - their personal inhibitions, repressed emotions, fears, habitual non favorable patterns, and -if any- obscurations of consciousness that often accumulate in the human sub-consciousness over years due to conditioning of modern society.

Indigenous sacred ceremonies of Ayahuasca, will take place for the purpose of initiation into the indigenous tradition. 

Participants may or may not qualify or may choose not to participate, depending on their condition.

The retreat schedule will depend on the individual process of each participant.

The days around the ceremonies will be dedicated to creating a deeper understanding of Mother Nature’s language with the help of different modalities, such as:

The retreat is specifically developed and intended for the participants to face and challenge themselves in the most direct and harmonious way, as observed in many ancient cultures and indigenous spiritual traditions around the world. This approach helps us to become a human being in a human body while recognizing, transforming and letting go of stale concepts, habitual patterns, repressed emotions, inhibitions, fears, traumas and all other energetic limitations on the way to becoming a totally free luminous being overflowing with universal love and compassion.
