Ayahuasca Retreat 5 days

Our team will pick you up from your hotel in Cusco and transfer you to the retreat center in the Sacred Valley. The journey allows you to begin disconnecting from the city and preparing mentally and emotionally for your retreat experience.

Upon arrival, you will be warmly welcomed by the Ayaterra staff. We will introduce you to the retreat center, including the ceremonial spaces, resting areas, and natural surroundings, so you feel comfortable and familiar with the environment where your healing journey will take place.

We begin with an opening meeting where you will meet the shamans (Maestros) and support team. During this session, we explain the retreat flow, the purpose of each ceremony, and important guidance on preparation, intention, and how to approach the experience with respect and openness.

This traditional Andean ceremony is performed as a sacred opening ritual to harmonize your energy with the natural and spiritual elements of the Andes. Through the use of coca leaves, the shaman helps create a grounded and respectful beginning for the retreat.

You will receive a personal coca leaf reading in a private session with an Andean shaman. This ceremony offers spiritual insight and guidance, helping you better understand your current emotional and energetic state before the Ayahuasca ceremony.

The Kuti ceremony is an Andean energetic alignment ritual intended to help clear, balance, and prepare your energy field. This ceremony supports emotional grounding and allows participants to enter the Ayahuasca experience with greater harmony and intention.
