About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

Retreat Details:

Upon arrival to our Amazon Center, which is nestled on the banks of the Ucayalli River, you are greeted by our loving staff of facilitators and healers. This center is a community of loving healers.

Experience the sacred healing power of plant medicines at their home in the Amazon jungle.  Awaken to your inner truth through witnessing and exploring the beautiful natural landscape, and cultivate a sense of mindfulness and appreciation for yourself as part of it all.

At Arkana Spiritual Center, we work closely with indigenous shamans and our staff of healers to bring you a comprehensive program deeply rooted in the traditional practices of ancestral medicine.  We offer a safe, caring, and effective space to begin your journey of transformation, helping you every step of the way as you uncover the energetic roots of any trauma, negative thought patterns, unhealthy habits, or spiritual imbalance.
Our carefully constructed program optimizes your healing by incorporating Eastern and modern philosophies for long-term integration into a modern world.

Following your time with us at Arkana, you will return to life back home with a new perspective and a deeper understanding of yourself and your truth, and will be equipped with the skills and tools necessary to integrate your experience into your everyday life.

Our entire program is structured around our sacred plant medicine ceremonies and holistic therapies.

Worth the trip to the Amazon!
Don’t be afraid! It’s time to heal.
I can’t remember exactly how I came upon Arkana. I think I was ready to change. But I had a lot of hesitation- Taking Ayahuasca? - it’s so out of the box for so many of us. As a believer in Christ Jesus, could I even do this?
Yet who wants to stay stuck? Ayahuasca is a healer. It’s sitting down with a gentle instructive mother. The love and care of the staff to support you as you heal is a warm blanket of compassion. The flow of the program is designed to help you wade into the unknown gently.
The facility is top-notch. The food is abundant and the best the earth can offer, fresh, colorful and delicious. The group discussions help you process and support others in their healing.
After my experience, what has changed? For me, my internal emotional temperature has smoothed. I see from a larger frame. I’ve developed a compassionate heart towards those that struggle and hurt. I feel loved more (if that’s possible) by God. I would describe my life as more restful. I will go back. I hope you take the step.

My second retreat there, Best place to discover your self and grow
This was my second retreat at Arkana Spiritual Center—and definitely not the last. There is simply no better place to dive deep into yourself, heal, and grow. The center itself is absolutely beautiful, surrounded by nature, calm, and intention. You feel safe the moment you arrive.

The staff, the owner, and the shamans are all beyond words—so present, loving, and deeply committed to holding space in the most authentic way. The energy at Arkana is powerful yet nurturing. Everything is done with such care, respect for the medicine, and genuine support for each individual’s journey.

If you’re looking for a safe, heart-centered, and transformational space, Arkana is it. I’m deeply grateful for this experience, again, and I know I’ll be returning.

Life Changing
Arkana saved my life. I was going down a pretty dark, self-destructive path before I went. Between the maestro’s ikaros and the plant medicine, they changed my life for the better. Never felt so safe and loved in my life. I will be back, probably more than once.

Powerful Experience for Growth.
I spent a week at Arkana exploring with the medicine. This isn’t my first time sitting but was my first experience at Arkana. Their facilitators, shaman, medicine, food, and accommodation's were first class.

The ceremony setting and integration classes were held beautifully. I will be returning in the future when the medicine calls again.

Thank you to Maestro Justina, Josè, and the rest of the staff.
