2x Ayahuasca Ceremonies

​

• Ayahuasca ceremonies are held twice a week, on Tuesdays and Fridays.

​

• Your first journey will follow a period of preparation, ensuring you begin in safe and supportive conditions.

Kambo Healing Treatments

​

• On your first full day, we recommend a round of Kambo—a traditional healing treatment made from the secretion of an Amazonian frog.

​

• Kambo deeply purifies the body through cleansing and detoxification. While not considered a ceremony by the Indigenous, it is valued as powerful medicine.

​

• If you feel called, additional treatments can be arranged on other days.

Optional Yopo Ceremony

​

• Yopo is a sacred powder made from the seeds of a Brazilian tree. Rich in DMT, it opens the door to a visionary journey that typically lasts about an hour.

​

• You’ll have the option to join this ceremony on Thursday evening if you feel called.

Mambaè Talking Circles

​

• On the evening following each ayahuasca ceremony, we gather in a talking circle accompanied by Mambé—a powdered coca leaf known for opening the heart and freeing the voice.

​

• These circles offer a space to share and reflect on the experiences from ceremony, while deepening understanding and strengthening the bonds within the group.

 Rapé (hapeh)

​

• Rapé (Amazonian snuff) is a sacred medicine that has been used by tribes of the Amazon basin for thousands of years, holding an important place in their culture and tradition.

​

• Like all of our medicines, it is entirely optional—available for you to experience if and when you feel called.

Welcoming Floral Bath

​

• On your first day, you’ll be welcomed with a floral bath prepared from medicinal plants to help you settle into the space.

​

• In the evening, we gather in a talking circle to connect, share intentions, and meet the community.

Medicine Preparation

​

• You’ll also have the opportunity to learn and take part in the preparation of Ayahuasca, collect Kambo frogs at night, and discover the traditional process of making Yopo.

Jungle / River Tours

​

• As part of the activities on offer, you’ll enjoy a boat trip and guided jungle tour with Don Gardel, who will introduce you to medicinal and master plants in their natural environment.

​

• The village also has a football field, where you can often join or watch the local children at play.

Yoga Nidra & Yin Yoga

​

• Before each ceremony, you’ll be guided through a gentle practice of Yoga Nidra, helping your nervous system settle and giving space to anchor your intentions.

​

• On Thursday evenings, we also offer Yin Yoga, a restorative practice designed to relax and reset both body and mind.

Breathwork

​

• As a group, we gather for breathwork sessions before ceremony—supporting the release of inner layers while calming the mind and easing the nerves.

​

• After ceremony, you’ll also have the option for one-on-one integration sessions to support your process.

​

• If you wish, this practice can be continued online once you return home.

Post Ceremony Workouts

​

• On the day after ceremony, we come together for a HIIT workout, supporting the body in sweating out any medicine that may still be present and helping to restore balance.

Daily Qigong

​

• We begin each day with Qi Gong, a gentle practice of movement and breath designed to center the mind, balance the body, and awaken the flow of energy within.

​

• This grounding ritual helps us arrive fully in the day and connect more deeply with ourselves and the space.

Connection with Shamans

​

• You’ll also have the opportunity for one-on-one connection and personal guidance with both La Maestro and Don Gardel.

Shipibo Market

​

• A group of Shipibo women will visit our center to share their vibrant culture and showcase their incredible handmade clothing, artwork, crafts, and talismans. This is also a beautiful opportunity to learn more about their traditions and way of life.

Organic Meals

​

• We take great care in preparing meals with fresh, local ingredients—fruits are always sourced from the surrounding area.

​

• For those who consume animal products, all meat is organic and freshly caught from the river or hunted only days before being served.

​

• To fully nourish the body, we add superfoods such as maca, chia seeds, and wholesome flours, making each dish rich in vitamins and plant proteins.

​

• Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options are always available.

Optional Bufo Ceremony

​

• We also offer Bufo (available at an additional cost of $70 USD), a powerful medicine derived from the toad of Mexico’s Sonoran Desert.

​

• Its active ingredient, 5-MeO-DMT, is known for inducing profoundly transformative experiences—often described as a direct encounter with the divine.

​

• We don’t take pre-bookings for this ceremony, as it’s important that you feel into the decision once you are here.

Chinese Medicine

​

• At Paojilhuasca, the team integrates Traditional Chinese Medicine with Amazonian ancestral healing, offering a truly holistic approach.

​

• This fusion is not simply additive, but synergetic—drawing from both wisdom traditions to restore balance across the physical, emotional, and energetic dimensions.

Full Support & Guidance​

​

• You will receive our full support and care from the moment you book your retreat.

​

• We walk with you through preparation, ceremony, and integration, nourishing you throughout your stay.

​

• Our care continues even after the retreat, with ongoing support to help you feel held—physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
