Ancient Mother

Oh what a privilege to be able to write this.

This retreat was not simply a light, relaxed, ceremony weekend. It was one of the most profound experiences of my life. I arrived searching for answers and left with a deeper appreciation for love, life, and the mystery itself. It’s not knowledge I acquired but a deep remembering in my soul.

If you are considering this work, know that you will be held by people who approach it with sincerity, integrity, wisdom, and immense heart. Several times the guides held me like a child and guided me second by second through the hardest thing I’ve ever done. From the moment I arrived I felt supported, seen, and protected.

And realize that words cannot represent the magnitude of what is felt during/after the ceremony. No words are enough to concentrate the magic I felt ✨

I will carry what I experienced here for the rest of my life, and I am deeply grateful to everyone I got to share it with.

Aho! ❤️

What an amazing experience. This was my first time doing an ayahuasca ceremony and I was very nervous about how it would go. Marnix, Margriet, & Emmeline were amazing guides who are so full of wisdom and love. I really felt cared for and knew that this was a safe place for me to undergo this journey. 10 out of 10 would recommend it to anyone looking for growth or healing in their life. Several people in my retreat group have already committed to coming back again.

This 3 day retreat was a pleasure for me and my friend. We were welcomed very warmly. The accommodation was quite nice. The food very good and healthy.
The two ceremonies were well prepared and performed with lots of love. Great music. We felt save and welcomed during the whole time. Thanks to Margriet, Marnix and Ilko form our heart.
Music and recommendations were shared afterwards and a WhatsApp group was set up for further questions.

As I'm used to be on my own and not used to group sessions I was a bit reluctant to spend the time with a bunch of strangers and go to the processes with them... MAN, was I wrong!!! This was the most beautiful and intense experience I've had in my life. The moment you meet each other and are settled in, the group is you and you are the group!! Everybody is there with the same head- and heart set and that is Growth with an open heart!

And during these days that's happening is a way I can't, yet, describe completely as I'm, after 3 days still processing everything. For me the 4 days, and the 2 sessions are the most complete way to do this when you want o go "all the way"

A special thanks to my group of beautiful, warm, honest and loving people! Without you... ❤️

But, Marnix, Margriet, Ewout and Astrid are the true heroes of this beautiful program, Their warmth, dedication, passion and honest belief in doing what and how they do is truly magnificent and TOO difficult to bring under words to be honest. Arriving as a complete stranger you leave with an additional family... 🙏🏻🍀❤️

What an incredible experience perfectly curated by everyone at Ancient Mother. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a deeply spiritual and profound experience. Everyone was very kind and I felt very safe to dive into myself without external fear of my environment. Well worth the travel and financial contribution. Margriet, Marnix, and Ilco have done a wonderful job facilitating such a wonderful experience. I couldn't be happier with how everything went.
