SAN PEDRO CEREMONY
San Pedro ceremony is the perfect closure for helping integrate your Ayahuasca experience with one of the most contemplative and heart healing medicine plants in the andes of South America.
San Pedro (Huachuma) is a teacher plant (Grandfather medicine) that will give you the opportunity of stopping the stream of thoughts and reconnect you to the presence that emerge of the stillness of nature.
We will hold a San Pedro Ceremony on the last day of the retreat, lead by facilitators in the community who have extended experience in the use of this teacher plant. A typical daytime ceremony with this heart-opening medicine lasts around 10 hours and is likely a potent transformational experience, involving intuitive insight; it is a perfect complement for the integration of your week long experience with Madre Ayahuasca.
KAMBO TREATMENT
Kambo treatment will be offered after Ayahuasca ceremony to help release emotions and toxins from the body.
The Kambô therapy uses the venom (poison) released by the Giant Monkey Frog (Phyllomedusa bicolor), providing deep healing and a boost for your immune system.
One Kambô session will be included during the retreat for you to try the experience and its benefits. If you would like we can arrange other optional treatments during the retreat.
The session lasts anywhere from 45 min to 90 min depending on the person. The ‘intense’ part lasts anywhere from 5 to 40 min.
RAPE APPLICATION
Rapé is the general name given to medicines that are grinned into fine powder and then blown into both nostrils. Most rapés are made with tobacco and other ingredients.
Rapé can help us to move the energy that is blocked or when we feel stuck during Ayahuasca ceremonies. The use of Rapé is considered by the indigenous peoples to be therapeutic on multiple levels. On the mental level it is known for clearing the mind, as well as helping to find ones center.
We have been working exclusively with rapé from the yawanawa and Kaxinawa (Huni Kuin) tribes that is prepared with lots of prayers, respect and lots of focused attention and intention to be a helpful medicine. This medicine is composed by sacred tobacco and the ashes of a tree known as tsunú, which is consider to be one of the most used trees as remedy for many ailments.

Visiting MachuPicchu?
I have never been at that high altitude. How likely is to get altitude sickness?
Pisaq (2,850m) is a bit lower than Cusco (3,400m), and you are not likely to get altitude sickness. If it happens, it is usually mild and can be easily treated with some rest and coca tea, which will be offered upon arrival.
Do you have private accommodation options?
The Ayahuasca retreat is double occupancy but you may ask for availability on private rooming. This will depend on the number of participants and availability, and will include an extra cost for the week.
Payment, money exchange and ATM machines.
Vaccines
It is not necessary to have any vaccines to travel to Cusco. Many countries recommend it as a precautionary measure but in the last 10 years there has been no report of malaria or yellow fever in these areas. Moreover the malaria pills have unpleasant side effects on the body.
Staying extra days?
We invite you to stay several days after your Ayahuasca retreat, since you will feel drawn to stay and share with the translucent community in Pisaq after going through this transformational experience. In fact, it would be very beneficial for the continued process of understanding and integrating this new reality that emerge within you after the retreat.
