Plant Medicine Retreats
Ayahuasca, San Pedro, and Psilocybin Mushrooms
For Individuals, Couples, or Groups
The recent interest in traditional and indigenous healing approaches has provided a number of promising medical benefits for people suffering from mental health conditions. These treatments are also useful for resolving relational problems and facilitating personal growth. Ayahuasca, one of the most respected and ancient traditional plant medicines for mental health, contains the substances DMT and harmaline. Other sacred psychedelic plant medicines include San Pedro and peyote, which contain mescaline, and psilocybin mushrooms. In South America, there are various traditions that use ayahuasca and other sacred plants to address a wide range of problems. These ailments are usually understood holistically—as physical, mental, and spiritual illnesses simultaneously. These three aspects of life are typically intertwined in these traditional healing processes.
