12 day retreat
I went to the 12 day retreat at Gaia Sagrada, and did an additional ceremony, covering 6 in 12 days. I also stayed an extra night either side for resting up before and after. Coming to this space was like coming home to myself. For anyone reading this that has not worked with plant medicine before, you need not have any apprehension as you are in the best of hands. The team, each one of them, from the ones maintaining the property, cooking, cleaning, the office staff, to the Shamans that hold the ceremonies are highly experienced and have great skill in what they do and how they do it. The volunteers are invested in each guests well being and care. They also share my of their own talents and skills. A lot of care and consideration is taken towards everything and everyone in this space. The attention to detail on sustainability aspects and working as closely with nature as possible were also beautiful. The pricing is low compared to other retreats because of how the centre is set up and runs as not for profit, not in anyway indicative of the quality of experience you will have. More money does not equal better retreats. The pictures do not do the facilities justice, nor the raw beauty of the location. It is hard to put into words what I gained from my time here. I love the medicine, it has helped me with things that conventional types of western therapy could not. It has changed my life for the better and continues to do so, and the structure of the overall programme here is incredible in supporting that process and my Work. This place is pure love, just come and see for yourself with an open heart and mind. You won't regret it.
