Four ways of entering the threshold of great solutions and answers; to get a glimpse of oneself, where the source of wisdom is, and where the inner teacher dwells.
PARTICIPANTS, STUDENTS, PRACTITIONERS AND FACILITATORS…
…not only are they states that belong to different people but they are different moments and situations experienced by the same person. Recovery, training, integration and specialisation programmes. A process that works for thousands of people.
We have designed and are running four programmes that you can subscribe to depending on the moment and situation in which you find yourself, and according to your current interest; recovery, training, integration and specialisation programmes.
The participant is someone who comes to a workshop or retreat for the first time and stays for a short time who then leaves or returns from time to time whenever they need to. The general purpose is recovery, which includes development, growth, inner evolution and overcoming. The student is someone who has already attended several retreats and then decides to train, with continuity, and attends training cycles of 3 to 4 days and nights every month and where they go much deeper than at the retreats as they are directed by veteran facilitators and qualified teachers, and there are more and higher doses of Ayahuasca. The practitioner is someone who, having attended a minimum of 3 to 6 training cycles, can already perform a supervised internship in tasks in which they are authorised according to the qualities and abilities that we have detected in them. Practitioners are in the process of joining the organisation’s team but have not yet been hired. Facilitators are those who have assumed the costs of training at the school for a minimum of 6 months and who have completed 3 months of unpaid work, therefore they are already hired and are in the process of ongoing training and renewal courses with costs paid by the organisation and where they obtain a specialisation. We offer them free training cycles, improvement workshops, conventions and internal retreats where we allow them to experiment with new techniques and shamanic medicines that will then be implanted into the retreats and workshops that we offer to participants.
Our facilitators and integrators have gone through the entire process from being participants to becoming teachers at the school.
RECOVERY PROGRAMME:
The initiation of an inner evolution process.
It is a programme that lasts a minimum of 3 months and where you can access several types of complementary activities that allow you to be in contact with our team and with the method we offer. RECOVERY is the word that defines and brings together many objectives or purposes that are considered by people who want to participate in our workshops and retreats. They want to regain confidence, motivation, connection, hope, love and even themselves. In general, human beings forget about the essential and important aspects of life, and there comes a time when we urgently need to recover our health, strength, quality of life, energy or well-being; be it that we lost or that we have never had. Deep down we need to recover ourselves. For this it is vital to RECOVER the memory of what we are and can do.
The goals that are shared by the people who carry out this programme are very diverse, from people who want to solve psycho-emotional problems, to others who want to find inspiration to write a book or create a project, to others who claim to be looking for spiritual connection or awakening their consciousness.
This programme is for people who want to participate in activities that we organise with psycho-therapeutic use of ancestral medicines and entheogenic substances. For this we propose attending, on an optional basis; conferences, workshops, retreats or post-retirement meetings.
CONFERENCES:
The ideal occasion to remove doubts and make a decision.
(Some are free and others have a cost of between 5 to 20 euros)
They last approximately 2 to 3 hours, usually in 4 or 5 star hotel meeting rooms, where we give selected and quality information by prepared speakers. We are aware of the importance of connecting before…and of giving people the chance to evaluate the decision to participate at our retreats or workshops. We project videos with real images of what we do, answer questions and make ourselves known in person with the presence of facilitators, therapists, health professionals and/or any of the directors of the company. Also, on most occasions, we share moments of music and live songs, and some soft natural medicines to try and connect with the energy of mother nature.
WORKSHOPS:
A gentle way to initiate contact before going to a retreat or as support to the recovery programme.
(With a cost of between 100 to 165 €)
They last between 2 to 5 hours and we perform several sessions of Yopo, Bufo Alvarius and or Kambó. Usually there are 4 workshops per weekend, Friday evening, Saturday morning and afternoon, and Sunday morning. The workshops are run by at least 2 facilitators trained in our school and experienced in the management of ancestral medicines. A preparation exercise is carried out before each session and a psycho-therapeutic integration takes place after finishing the sessions where we share the experience among all the participants and where we verify that each assistant leaves in perfect health.
Workshops are held in cities, in appropriate places that we rent for that purpose or in our 12 houses in Europe and America.
RETREATS:
The way to get away from the daily life in order to devote ourselves in–depth to ourselves.
(With a cost of between 135 to 250 € per day and night depending on the country where it is performed, which includes: accommodation in shared rooms where everyone has their own bed, food and drinks, a preparation workshop, nocturnal Ayahuasca session, psycho-therapeutic integration in the morning and permanent accompaniment throughout the retreat).
It is the coexistence of human beings who are in the same search or have similar goals. They last between 1 and 21 days, Ayahuasca sessions are held every night, and during the day other optional sessions of Kambó, Bufo Alvarius, Yopo, Rapés and other natural or entheogenic medicines are performed, whose cost ranges from 70 – 125€ per session. In addition there are group dynamics, psycho-therapeutic integration, informative talks, rounds of questions and walks. It is essential to rest during the day to be well for the Ayahuasca night sessions. The expert facilitators and integrators who direct the retreats have been trained in our school and also with shamans in the jungle. In addition they have permanent access to the advice of a psychologist and a doctor during the retreats.
The retreats take place in remote locations near cities, preferably in the countryside and in equipped homes where we have all the necessary comforts to share this coexistence. Our 12 houses are in Spain (Madrid, Barcelona and Marbella), Portugal, Italy (Rome and Milan), Holland, Germany, Colombia, Mexico, Uruguay and Argentina.
We recommend doing 3 to 4 retreats during a 3 month period since we have found that it is necessary to have a minimum number of sessions and in short periods so that you can get deeply into the core of problems or discomforts. Respecting the periodicity is a fundamental factor in the results obtained.
You can also attend a retreat of 1 to 4 days without having to carry out the entire programme we propose. Or you can attend retreats when deemed necessary.
POST RETREAT MEETINGS:
We care for and deal with how your inner evolution process progresses.
(Free for retreat participants within 3 months prior to the date it takes place).
They are held in different places within cities and last 2 to 3 hours. We share situations that are presented to us on a day-to-day basis in relation to the goal for which we are working on in the recovery programme. It is an integration that is offered after the retreats because we know that the opportunities to put into practice what we have taken from the retreats occur in everyday life. Our intention is to support the process of each person closely.
PRIVATE INTEGRATION SESSIONS:
A space is created in a private environment that is safe and reserved for deepening into particular aspects.
(With a cost of between 60 to 125€ and lasting 1 to 2 hours, this can be done at your home or in our homes or Holistic Epicentres)
These sessions can be psycho-therapy, counselling or orientation, systemic therapy, massage, yoga or meditation. The characteristic of this session is that it is of a private nature, whether personal or in small groups, to enter into the most delicate issues or those that don’t want to be shared publicly in retreats or workshops.
These sessions are attended by psychologists or therapists from our organisation who trained in different approaches and disciplines.
TRIP TO THE AMAZON JUNGLE:
To meet with shamans, and wild and healing nature. To witness the best views of oneself.
(The all-inclusive price per day and night ranges from 100 to 140€ depending on the number of days and other conditions).
Going to our hostel in the Colombian jungle for between 5 to 11 days is a very deep process in itself. Not only because of what the environment and the presence of shamans represents, but because the traveller is much further away there from their daily lives and in an environment that supports and encourages them to go deeper. Many who go for 15 to 30 days also to do processes of detoxification or got to cure diseases. We also cook Ayahuasca for people to witness and connect with the process of making this magic potion. These trips take place every month with participants from around the world. We offer permanent accompaniment, guides and all the necessary services so that the experience is pleasant and safe. For more than 10 years we have been taking people to Mocoa, the capital of Putumayo (they call it the lung of the world because of the geographic form that this community has and because of the immense amount of jungle vegetation it has). Here we have our hostel that has more than 2 hectares of land and jungle trees. We also plant Ayahuasca there.
This trip can be made at any time during the recovery program.
