About this Retreat
Celia Panduro Huayta is a traditional Maestra Curandera & Perfumera from the Shipibo-Conibo tribe. The Shipibo tribe is thought to be one of the largest and the oldest indigenous groups of the Amazon, nowadays especially centralized around the jungle city of Pucallpa. As a result, the Shipibo culture produces more traditional healers than any other tribe in the Amazon. Celia, like many in the shipibo tradition, comes from a long line of healers, and was raised from childhood learning the medicines, singing icaros, taking plants to heal both common and very rare symptoms, as well as drinking ayahuasca and other plants to receive visions and insights into her future. Nowadays Celia facilitates Ayahuasca Ceremonies, as well as healing programs & traditional shamanic dieta initiations for for both locals and foreigners, to allow them to all to heal & learn with the Amazonian plants. With or without the influence of finances, Celia is a healer, and has made a commitment to this path for life, with the goal of bringing a better quality of life to all. She also administers healing remedies, plant baths, and vends her handiworks, which she creates as an act of meditation in her downtime. All of her creations are a paying of homage to the sacred union between the plants and the healing traditions of her beloved ancestors. Her persona is sweet and joyous, and in ceremony she presents herself with power and conviction, holding a safe, healing and loving space for all who enter.
“I am very committed to my work at The Avatar Centre, because I believe in the power of what we are doing in people’s lives. Don Brown & Pamela are some of the most dedicated healers I have ever met. They do not just give people medicine and walk away, they enter deep within the healing process of each of their patients, and guide them with care, patience & precision into the light. Don Brown is a Maestro Curandero who I respect. His icaros are beautiful & connected, & bring me powerful visions from the medicine when he sings, & he has proven to have the ability to heal his patients on a deep level. This is a sign of his connection to the plants & the curanderos of the past. There are many Ayahuasca Centers in the Amazon. I have worked at many over the years, & what I feel sets the Avatar Centre apart, is the level of love & care given to each of the guests, by the whole team at Avatar Centre.

WELCOME TO TAITA INTI RETREATS
Our spiritual retreats have become an international meeting point. People of different nationalities who feel the call through the plants come together to look within and seek the answers they need to lead a harmonious and balanced life.
At TAITA INTI, we believe that CHANGE BEGINS WITHIN. Happiness is a state of being that one creates and manifests from within.
Master Plants are SACRED PLANTS; they are MEDICINE because they can soothe our bodies, minds, and hearts, restore inner PEACE, and help us to make that HONEST LOOK that our life needs.
We are all energetic beings, so sometimes it is necessary that we LEARN TO KNOW, CLEAN, and PROTECT our energy.
The SACRED PLANTS help us to identify why our ENERGY CAN BE CHARGED, causing many discomforts that become preventable PHYSICAL ILLNESSES.
When the ENERGY DOES NOT FLOW, we feel HEAVY, CLOUD MINDED, FEARFUL, depressed, FEEL NO DESIRE FOR ANYTHING, have trouble sleeping, are angry, stressed, and many more things.
SHAMANISM and the WORK WITH THE AMAZON PLANTS is a work of PREVENTION, CLEANSING, HEALING, and SPIRITUAL AWAKENING.
The work of the SHAMAN is to SUSTAIN the SPACE so that the energies of the SACRED PLANTS and the SPIRITS OF THE MASTER PLANTS can do their job. The SHAMAN moves the ENERGY through HIS SONGS, HIS INSTRUMENTS, restoring, cleansing, and unblocking the different energetic points in our body. These points have been called CHAKRAS. The Shaman protects the space from low vibrational energies and creates a safe space for the person to look at themselves and navigate the visions.
TAITA INTI, over the years, has been developing different programs according to individual needs, especially the needs of modern man, whose main problem is STRESS, SPIRITUAL DISCONNECTION, and NOT HAVING A LIFE PURPOSE.
