Our vision is to create a sanctuary of healing, transformation, and love — a home and family where you’re held with honesty, care, and compassion. Whether you’re taking your first step with plant medicine or deepening your journey, our intimate retreats — with small groups of up to six — offer a safe, nurturing space for profound self-discovery. We offer a unique combination of the use of Plant Medicines such as Ayahuasca, Kambo, San Pedro, Bufo Alvarius and Cacao in combination with a variety of holistic practices & deep integrative spaces. During our retreats we guide you in releasing what no longer serves you, gaining clarity, and reconnecting with joy, creativity, and love. Our experienced, devoted team walks with you every step of the way, offering warmth, safety, and support.
One of the things that we have comprehended during our journey with Plant Medicines is that having a feeling of safety is one of the most important things. For this reason we created our home into a temple. A place where you can feel at home, where you can feel safe and loved and held during your stay with us! You are more then just a participant, you are part of our family when we welcome you here. Our place is completely surrounded by nature and privacy!

Healing & Love
Working with Danilo, Ilse, and Martin at their home in Spain was one of the most, if not THE most, profound experience of my life thus far. Their family is warm and they share their hearts openly with those that come to them, and it is clear in the joy and love that their children exude every day. Prior to coming to Gaia For You, I felt my life was in shambles. I could not control my mind, my thoughts, my actions, and felt everything in my life was out of my control. After experiencing the medicine with them, I not only have gotten my life back, but now love myself again. If you’re interested or in need of the healing power of plant medicines and considering embarking on that journey, look no further than Gaia for you. Look no further than Ilse, Martin, Danilo, Gaia, and Stella; anything less will provide you with only a fraction of the healing potential you need. I will never forget them in this experience, and will love all five of them and my co-participants to my last. Love and thanks.

A Loving and Insightful Plant-Medicine Retreat
I recently attended a five-day retreat with Danilo, Ilse and Martín. The experience involved plant-based psychedelics in a very safe and loving environment, and it truly helped me grow personally. I had wonderful conversations with the hosts and the group, and overall it was a deeply enriching and transformative experience.
I highly recommend this place to anyone seeking a safe and supportive retreat experience.

Harmony and Balance Restoration
The retreat brought me through a difficult time in my life to a place of peace and acceptance through intuitive, thoughtful conversation, meditation, breathing and transformative plant based medicine.
Danilo and Martin brought out the beauty and love buried deep inside me through music, silence, meditation, laughter and tears. We looked deeply into every emotion and feeling, learned to actively listen to one another and find gratitude and connection with each other and ourselves.
Words can not describe the love and humble appreciation I have for the work of this great team of kind, thoughtful, non-judgemental, accepting friends.
