Sacred Vine Church

My experience I recently spent with the Sacred Vine community is invaluable to me. They are so precious, and helped me in ways I feel I can never repay them. The soft, kindness and gentleness of their hands and hearts in my journey made me feel so welcomed, safe and finally at home. Between their guidance and love, and Mama Aya’s time with me, I have began to feel a sense of deep belonging and love within that I will cherish and work to strengthen and share with the world for the rest of my life.

I feel as though they helped me release and reset all of my pain, trauma and deep internal struggles with myself and the world and in such a divine way. Everything from the deep respect and consideration they showed for the medicine, the music and singing, the dancing, the nourishment of my soul they provided in all the ways you could imagine, and their warm embraces made me feel like I was in heaven. In the safest place I’ve ever felt. I cannot wait to come back and do it all again with them, my family. The community I have joined by having this experience with them feels like the most sacred family I could ever know. The wholeness in my heart and soul is bountiful, and I’m so blessed to have been given the opportunity to experience the beginning of my journey with Mama Aya with the sweet souls of Sacred Vine.

It’s hard to put into words what this church means to me. From my first ceremony, I felt safe. The kind of safe that allows you to be your most authentic self and let go. The container they create is not just intentional, but sacred. Every single person there, from the facilitators, the helpers, and the other participants; were present in a spirit of service. However you need support, they are there. From a hand to hold, space to process, or simply someone sitting beside you in silence, it is there with genuine care. This work changed my life. It changed how I view myself, changed how I show up in my relationships, and it changed the man I am. I walked in carrying so much and walked out feeling lighter, more aligned with who I truly am, and more open hearted. If you are feeling called, please know that this is a space where you will be held with compassion, grace, and unwavering support. What they offer is not just a ceremony or retreat, but a transformation.

This was my second retreat and you simply can’t get better than the healing offered by Sil and all of Sacred Vine. The retreat was one of the most cathartic moments of my life and I can’t thank them enough, I will be back!

Trying to find the words are impossible to conjure as there are none that exist in the English language to represent the power of this experience. I have been searching for peace for so long and failing over and over (no matter what I tried…….which ranged from relationships, church, higher education, career, and unfortunately even drugs and alcohol). I felt like I was wandering in the desert with no idea where I was going. After experiencing The Sacred Vine’s Ayahuasca Retreat, I found exactly what I was looking for……..me. If you feel the call to do this then I hope you will listen to yourself and give this experience a try. I’ve always heard the phrase, “It’s better to jump than to fall.” Well, that is exactly what I did and I was embraced by the most amazing staff you could ask for as well as the most healing journey of my life. I’ve always been uncomfortable in my own thoughts and presence and now I cannot wait to experience this life with me by my side. Thank you to all the amazing women and men that serve and lead this experience. You all are truly angels among us. Haux Haux.

I can't say enough great things about this group. The facilitators and volunteers were all outstanding, creating a truly supportive atmosphere. I especially appreciated the smaller group size—it made such a difference. I've participated in sessions with other groups before, where they cram too many people into the space, generating overwhelming energy that distracts from your personal healing journey. I'm deeply grateful to have found this one and can't wait for the next time I join them.
