  • Some shamans are guided to heal only children.
  • Others may specialize in women, snake bites, or specific physical or spiritual conditions.
  • The Amazonian tradition also acknowledges the existence of "maleros" or sorcerers — shamans who misuse their spiritual power for negative purposes.
  • This retreat is a sacred space of light and healing, carefully guided and protected to honor the ancestral traditions and the sacredness of nature.

Ayahuasca Tour in Amazon Rainforest  3-Day Deep Jungle Connection

Ayahuasca Tour in Amazon Rainforest 3-days:  A Sacred Journey Within, in the Heart of Lake Sandoval Ayahuasca is a sacred plant that has been used for centuries by Indigenous peoples of the Amazon in ceremonies of physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. Today, thousands of people around the world seek the ayahuasca experience through guided ceremonies—whether to improve mental health, relieve stress, connect with their inner self, or simply explore consciousness. Amazon  Adventure Trips

This natural brew combines the vine Banisteriopsis caapi with other plants such as Chacruna (Psychotria viridis), which is rich in DMT—a powerful psychoactive compound. When consumed, it induces deep visions, intense introspection, and a physical and emotional purge that many describe as both renewing and cathartic.

While it can offer profound benefits, ayahuasca is not to be taken lightly. It must be used in safe environments, guided by experienced shamans, and with proper preparation. It is not recommended for individuals with heart conditions, severe mental health disorders, or those taking certain medications.
