About this Retreat
Your Guides
Mama Maria Apaza is the last living Inca Alto Misayoc (High Priestess) of her kind, the sacred holder of the Alto Misayoc title—“She who welcomes the Great Spirits.” This title is not given lightly; it is bestowed only upon those initiated at the highest level of Andean spiritual tradition.
Born in Hatun Quigo in the high Andes of Cusco, Mama Maria is a vessel of divine inheritance. As a spiritual guide and ceremonial leader, she has traveled the world to share the heart of her people—the Q’ero Nation, considered the last carriers of Incan prophecy and wisdom. Her presence is a prayer, her breath a blessing, and her path a living bridge between the heavens and the earth.

More Than a Retreat - A Sacred Passage of Initiation
This is not your typical spiritual retreat—it is a sacred encounter with a living lineage. You will be immersed in ancient rituals and wisdom that have been carefully preserved for generations by the Q’ero people, direct descendants of the Inca. This journey is a return to the truth of your spirit, guided by the Apus (mountain spirits), Pachamama (Mother Earth), and the pure, unwavering presence of an elder who embodies divine connection.
You’ll walk through a spiritual gateway into the Andes, where the energies of the land open portals for healing, remembering, and deep transformation. Held within the embrace of the Andean ancestors, you are invited to surrender to a process that unfolds soulfully, powerfully, and with great love
