A sanctuary in the jungle of Tulum. Sacred ceremony, ancestral music, Plant Medicine and heart-centred guidance — held with care, lineage and respect.
To serve, from heart to heart.
We create a sacred space where people can reconnect with themselves, their inner child, their truth, and the wisdom of their soul.
Through ceremony, music, voice and conscious guidance, we support each person in navigating inner conflict, emotional wounds and disconnection — allowing room for clarity, healing, softness and transformation.
We believe true healing begins when a person feels safe enough to return to their own heart.
Our intention is not to "fix" or force transformation, but to hold a grounded and sacred space where healing, clarity and reconnection may naturally unfold.
Integration is not an upsell here. Every guest leaves with a plan, a follow-up and an open line. It is always available, and it is free.
Ceremonies and retreats with Plant Medicine, held in a traditional, spiritual context. Every guest is guided personally before arrival to check for contraindications.
In group — two fixed dates only. Ancestral practice, energy clearing, sound healing and morning integration, held 8 PM to 9 AM.
A sacred night where every icaro sings only for you. One guest, one ceremony — with the same care, protection and integration.
Five days designed only for you. Cleansing rituals, rapé meditation, sound healing, daily integration — no distractions, only your journey.
From the sacred Sonoran desert. A 100% natural medicine for direct connection with Source and the pure essence of your soul.
A short, intense purification from the Indigenous tribes of the Amazon. Liver, intestines, lymph and blood — and the emotional weight they carry.
Purification, a heart-opening journey and expanded perception — three modalities layered in an intimate setting. No noise.
28 November. A heart-opening circle with ceremonial cacao, song and silence — gentle enough for a first ceremony, deep enough for the hundredth.
Rapé and Tepeskowite (Xanga) are served inside every retreat and can be added to any ceremony — price on request. Sound healing and Mayan healing are part of the immersions and are not sold separately.
A safe and respectful space — for the medicines, the traditions, and each individual journey.
Everything happens under the open sky of the Tulum jungle — an outdoor ceremonial space built with love, cleared and protected before every night.
Small groups only. Personal screening before booking. Nothing is rushed, and nothing is compulsory.
We keep the space quiet, sober and held from the first message to the days after, so that what opens in ceremony has somewhere to land.
The plants are prepared traditionally and served with permission from the lineages we study with. The music is live, ancestral and played by hand.
Local transport from Tulum takes about thirty minutes. We can arrange the transfer for you — 400 MXN from Tulum, 1,900 MXN from Cancún airport.
Tea, fruit and silence. The jungle does most of the work.
Rapé meditation, breath, or simply rest in a hammock.
Talk through what you carry. Questions are welcome, always.
Cleansing, medicine, live icaros and sound — held until sunrise.
Satsang, fruit, and the quiet that follows. Then rest.
Kambo carries no deposit. It is a morning, and a morning is easy to move.
Bufo is $20. Group Ayahuasca is $30, private Ayahuasca $80. Retreats carry a deposit equal to the real, non-refundable cost of the bed — that is the number the house actually loses if the bed stays empty.
Whatever you pay up front is credited against the total. The remainder is cash on arrival. No percentages, no card fees, no surprises at the gate.
If plans change
More than 30 days out — deposit retained, everything above it refunded. 14 to 29 days — deposit retained, half of the balance credited to a later date within twelve months. 7 to 13 days — deposit retained, balance non-refundable but transferable once. Under 7 days — both non-refundable, one transfer allowed subject to availability. If we cancel, you get everything back including the deposit, or a free move to any date.
You choose the number of ceremonies. Only 14 November and 5 December are group Ayahuasca. Every other ceremony is private, and the length of your stay follows the number of nights you name — one, two, three, or a full immersion.
Medicine woman, musician and composer. A practitioner of Reiki and Cosmo Energy, Aurora works with healing songs and gives every guest the post-ceremony integration they need — with an instinct for feeling where a person actually is.
She has walked the path of sacred medicines for five years, seeking spirituality her whole life. Among the words that most often follow a ceremony with Aurora are protection and safety — a maternal energy, gentle and strong at once.
She studies with Maestro Curandero and Vegetalist Shipibo, with Maestras Shipibo Olga Mori and Elisa, and carries the blessing and permission to share the medicine from Colombian third-generation Taita Jose Eliezer Silva.
All practices are held in a traditional, spiritual context — honouring the lineage, the plants, and the inner journey of each participant.
Passionate about creating nurturing, healing balms and herbal remedies inspired by the wisdom of medicinal plants. Offers a warm, caring presence and gentle support throughout ceremonies, helping create a safe and welcoming space. Musician, sharing the healing power of music and sound.
Feeds everyone, keeps the fire, carries the water, and drives the transfer when one is booked.
NamalI am deeply grateful for my experience with Aurora and the care she brought into every moment. Her priority was to make sure I felt safe, supported, and truly listened to. She holds a calm, gentle, and grounded presence that immediately puts your nervous system at ease.
At no point did I feel pressure or urgency. Aurora was incredibly patient, responsible, and attentive throughout. It was evident that she is motivated by integrity and respect for both the process and the person. Not everyone needs a dramatic experience to grow.
Aurora understands this deeply. She meets you where you are and never pushes beyond what feels right.
My experience itself was very comfortable and meditative. In the days that followed, layers gently peeled back. I found myself gaining clarity about my life in a way that felt natural, safe, and integrated. The strongest message that stayed with me was simple and powerful: I am loved, and I am safe.
Aurora holds space with humility, compassion, and deep responsibility. If you are sensitive, nervous, or simply wanting to explore in a gentle, respectful way, she is someone you can truly trust.
JacquelineLife changing.
I had a life changing experience. It was nothing like I was expecting. Absolute must have experience for everyone on this earth. If you are feeling called to it, it is for a reason.
BorisA truly wonderful experience.
I had the privilege of experiencing a beautiful night. The team put so much heart and dedication into taking care of every participant. The music was soothing, harmonious, and deeply rhythmic.
AnnaFirst experience.
I trusted Aurora and her team with my first experience and have no regrets. She answered all my questions without hesitation and offered a deeply personal journey that felt comfortable, safe, and authentic.
I quickly understood the love that created this outdoor space. The experience seamlessly weaves together musical and cultural elements, making the immersion feel authentic and deeply respectful. We are grateful for this experience and look forward to future events.
AbirI had a beautiful session with Aurora. For me, this work is such a joy. She is so gentle.
Because I am already very open, it feels much more comfortable to journey with an approach that truly meets my needs. This way I can integrate the experience much deeper into my body.
I again had a beautiful journey and received guidance from my spirit team about the path forward with my mission. I felt a big part of my soul anchor more deeply into my body, and I can't wait to feel the benefits of this.

Be honest with us. The list is short but it is not decorative.
Everything is decided case by case. SSRIs, thyroid medication and blood pressure medication each need a different taper, and some can be continued. You get a written plan before you travel.
If you cannot come off a medication at all, tell Aurora directly on the call. Sometimes there is still a way — sometimes there is not, and it is better to know early.
Leave the laptop. The phone can stay in your room.
We are thirty minutes south of Tulum by local transport, in the jungle. Transfers are optional and arranged on request — 400 MXN from Tulum, 1,900 MXN from Cancún airport. Tell us your arrival time and we will plan it with you.
That is your decision, not ours. Some people need one and one is enough. Others come for three over five days. The stay is built around the number you name, and we will say plainly if we think the number is too high for a first visit.
No. Most guests arrive for the first time. Everything is explained before the night begins, and you are never left alone with the process.
You don't have to decide alone. Write to us on WhatsApp, tell us what you are carrying, and Aurora will point you to the shortest honest path — even if that means waiting.
Yes, a short one. You receive it by message once your place is confirmed, together with the contraindication checklist for medication and heart conditions.
Yes — couples and friends are welcome, and the private intensive is often booked this way. You each keep your own process.
Breakfast fruit, satsang, and rest. Integration continues by message in the days that follow, and a follow-up call is always available — free, and as many times as you need.
Yes, and it costs nothing. Every guest leaves with a follow-up call, a written integration plan and an open line on WhatsApp. There is no package to buy afterwards.
Write the dates, the medicine and the number of ceremonies you have in mind. If you are not sure yet, say that too — most people are not.
You will get a reply within a day, and a call if you want one. Nothing is charged until the deposit is agreed.
Tell Aurora where you are in your life right now. She answers personally, and nothing is decided until you feel held by the plan.
Do you hear the call in your heart? Great Mother is calling you — to take that step into the unknown.
Trust where your heart is guiding you. We invite you to the ancestral healing ceremony, one of the short ways to transformation and evolution — to journey deep within yourself. It is always frightening to step into uncertainty, but you won't be alone.
We will guide you with care and compassion, gently helping you release all your fears and the negative myths you may have heard before.
14 November and 5 December only. This is the only ceremony we hold in group; every other date is private. The deposit is $30 and is credited against the total, the rest is cash on arrival.
Then you are on the right path, and your spirit is guiding you, right now. With good guidance, care, music and your own will you can change everything for the better and heal yourself from inside.
8 PM – 9 AM. You will have some rest in the morning.
The ceremony is a process in which internal potential becomes external flowering and divides your life into before and after. Everything that limits you has a solution; you can transform your suffering into love, your conditioning into your greatest treasure, your limitation into pure potential. Now it's your time.

Your journey of renewal and self-discovery. A sacred meeting with yourself — a return to where your soul remembers its voice and your body learns to trust again.
Five days in an intimate space, designed only for you. No distractions. Only your journey.
Created for those who feel the call to go deeper. For those ready to release what the body holds and step into their next version. For the one prepared to meet life fully.
Every night — a doorway. Every morning — rebirth.
Because healing deepens when all attention is focused solely on your journey. Sometimes the heart needs privacy to open. Sometimes the spirit needs silence to speak.
You take tools, not just memories. You return lighter, clearer, rooted in your heart, connected to something greater. Your rebirth becomes real.
The deposit equals the lodging cost and is credited against the total. Balance in cash on arrival. Transfers arranged on request — 400 MXN from Tulum, 1,900 MXN from Cancún.
Enquire About the 5 DaysPrivate, one guest · personal screening before booking
A direct connection with Source and the pure essence of your soul, free from the influence of the chaotic mind.
This profound practice originates in the sacred Sonoran desert. The medicine is 100% natural and has been used for decades as one of the shortest doors to the divine.
In a single breath the thinking mind goes quiet and what remains is presence — a vast, luminous stillness in which you are shown your true nature without commentary.
It helps you establish the right priorities and allows you to clearly see and feel the truth that already resides in your heart.
It is a direct path to clarity, purpose and heart-centred wisdom.
Deposit $20, credited against the total. No lodging needed — this is a session, not a night. Tell us about any heart condition, epilepsy or history of psychosis. Not in late pregnancy.
Enquire About BufoPersonal screening before booking · contraindications checked
A deep physical and emotional detox — a powerful, standalone ritual designed to cleanse your body and spirit from the inside out.
This is not a gentle spa treatment; it is a short and effective ancient practice for deep purification and renewal on all levels. This sacred method comes directly from the Indigenous tribes of the Amazon.
For thousands of years they have used it not just to heal the body, but to cleanse the spirit. They knew this ritual could strengthen a person's natural defences and ward off bad luck, allowing them to purge the negative energy that settles within us and manifests as lethargy, depression or a persistent low mood.
No deposit. A morning is easy to move, so there is nothing to hold. Pay in cash on the day.
Enquire About KamboStandalone ritual · personal screening before booking
A short and powerful journey of cleansing, vision and rebirth.
This 2-night retreat is designed for those who wish to work deeply in a short window of time — a concentrated dive into healing, transformation and awakening through three powerful modalities. In this intimate setting, every moment is intentional.
Physical cleansing and preparation of the body, followed by a heart-opening session. Then a luminous expansion of consciousness — helping you see with clarity, truth and presence.
No distractions. No noise. Just you, and your soul's calling.
Each experience builds upon the previous one — opening the body, then the heart, then the higher vision.
Even in two nights, profound shifts can occur.
The deposit equals the lodging cost and is credited against the total. Balance in cash on arrival. Transfers arranged on request — 400 MXN from Tulum, 1,900 MXN from Cancún.

A cup, a circle, and a slow opening of the chest — cacao works gently and asks nothing of you.
Cacao has been used for centuries in Mesoamerica as a medicine of the heart: not a psychedelic, not a stimulant in the coffee sense, but a warm, widening presence that makes speaking honestly easier.
We serve it in ceremony, with song, silence and time. There is no purge, no intensity, and no expectation — which is why it is often the right first ceremony for someone who is curious and slightly afraid.
28 November. Price and deposit on request — write to us and we will send the details and the remaining places.

The word is often translated as "vine of the soul". It is also, literally, two plants.
Ayahuasca is not a single species. It is a brew of the Banisteriopsis caapi vine and a leaf that carries DMT — usually Psychotria viridis. The vine holds the harmala alkaloids that let the DMT through the stomach and into the blood. On their own, neither plant does what the pair does together.
That is worth sitting with. The medicine is a relationship, not an ingredient. The vine is the elder, and in Shipibo cosmology it teaches. The leaf is the light, but the vine is the road.
Because the brew is a relationship, the quality of the vine matters more than the strength of the leaf. Old vine, slow cooked, gives a different night from a fast powder. Ours is cooked on the land by people who have done it their whole lives.
What it does in the body: the harmalas are MAO inhibitors, which is why food rules and medication rules exist. What it does in the mind is harder to state and is best not over-described. The vine tends to take you where you were already going.
The name is not decoration either — aya is soul, spirit; waska is vine, rope. To sit with the vine is to sit with that which animates you, which is why the intention matters more than the dose.
Talk About Sitting With ItTwenty minutes of work, then lunch. It is the least mystical thing we do and one of the most useful.
Kambo is the secretion of Phyllomedusa bicolor, the giant monkey frog of the western Amazon. It is collected on sticks, dried, and applied through small superficial burns on the shoulder or calf. It contains peptides — some of them vasoactive, some antimicrobial, some that act on the gut.
The experience is physical before it is anything else. Heat, a fast pulse, a flush, then usually purging. Aurora counts you through it and watches your colour. Then it stops, quite suddenly, and you feel light for the rest of the day.
We use it before Ayahuasca, not after. It clears the body and quiets the chatter, and people who do it usually report a cleaner, less crowded ceremony.
The contraindications are real and short: thyroid conditions, very high blood pressure, pregnancy or breastfeeding, recent stroke or heart surgery. If you are on blood pressure medication, tell us — sometimes it is still fine, sometimes it is not.
No deposit is taken. A morning is easy to move, so there is nothing to hold.
Ask About KamboThe shortest door in the house. The brevity is the point, not a shortcut.
Bufo is the secretion of the Sonoran desert toad, Incilius alvarius, which contains 5-MeO-DMT. It is smoked, not drunk, and it arrives in under a minute.
What people describe is rarely visual. More often it is a dissolution — a white-out, a sense of being briefly without edges — followed by a soft landing and a long quiet. Twenty minutes in total, and an hour of sitting afterwards that should not be rushed.
Because it is short, it suits people who are frightened of a whole night, and it suits people in the middle of a longer stay who need the ceiling taken off for a moment. It also pairs with Kambo the same morning, if the body is willing.
Safety is mostly about the airway and the heart. Sit propped, never lie flat, have someone holding your head. Tell us about heart conditions, epilepsy or any history of psychosis. Not in late pregnancy.
Deposit $20. No lodging needed — this is a session, not a night.
Ask About BufoTwo tobacco medicines, constantly confused. One is blown, one is blown into you.
Mapacho is jungle tobacco, smoked as a thick cigar through the night. It is not a habit and it is not a high — it clears the room, marks the opening and closing of ceremony, and gives the hands of the person holding the space something to do that is also prayer.
Rapé is a powder of tobacco and ash, blown through a pipe into each nostril. It is sharp, brief and organising. It puts a line through the noise, and for people who arrive scattered it can be the thing that lets them sit down properly.
Both are strong nicotine. If you have never had either, say so — the first Rapé should be small, and there is no shame in one nostril only.
Rapé is served inside every retreat and can be added to any ceremony. Mapacho is part of the ceremony itself and is not charged for.
Ask About RapéThe night is the easy part. It is loud and it carries you. The three weeks after are quiet, and they are yours.
Integration is not a mood. It is a set of small decisions: what you keep eating, who you tell, what you stop pretending to enjoy, how you sleep. The ceremony shows the shape of a thing; integration is walking into that shape on purpose.
The first three days are usually soft and slightly unreal. Do not make big decisions in them. Sleep, eat warm food, walk, stay off your phone where you can.
Weeks one to three are where the friction comes. Old patterns return with more contrast than before, and the temptation is to call it a failed ceremony. It is not. It is the work arriving.
We call on day two, day ten and day twenty-one unless you ask us not to. The calls are free and unhurried. If you need more, there is more — a longer session, a written plan, a referral if the thing is bigger than us.
There is no package to buy afterwards. Integration is part of the price, and it is the part we care most about.
Ask About IntegrationMost people who take medication can still sit. Almost none of them can do it without a plan.
The harmalas in Ayahuasca are MAO inhibitors, which means the list of interactions is long and specific. SSRIs are the common one: too little gap and you risk serotonin load, too much and the ceremony is muted. The right gap depends on the drug and the half-life, and it is not the same for everyone.
Thyroid medication and blood pressure medication matter mostly for Kambo. Antipsychotics matter for everything. Nothing here is a rule of thumb you can apply to yourself from a blog.
So: tell us the drug, the dose and how long you have taken it. You get a written taper in return, agreed with your prescriber where possible, and a check-in a week before you travel.
If you cannot come off a medication at all — some people genuinely cannot — say so on the call rather than in the form. Sometimes there is still a way, sometimes the honest answer is that Ayahuasca is not for you right now and Bufo or Kambo is. We would rather tell you that than take the money.
Three things we treat as absolute without a doctor's clearance: schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, late pregnancy.
