Sacred Medicines
Sapo (from the Bufo Alvarius toad in the Sonoran desert) contains the 5Meo DMT molecule which is also known as the God or Spirit molecule. This short and profound ceremony offers an intense, concentrated, and deeply mystical experience comparable to Hindu experiences of Moksha and Samadhi or Buddhist experiences of Nirvana. This medicine will be offered as an optional add-on for the retreat for an extra cost.
Psilocybe Mushrooms: Also known as niños santos (Holy Children) in Mexico, Psilocybe Mushrooms are powerful entheogens sought after for known for their ability to induce altered states of consciousness and their profound healing properties. They are very effective at treating diseases like depression, social anxiety, PTSD, addiction. They also heal traces of trauma stemming from physical, mental and sexual abuse. We will be serving this sacred medicine in its original Mazatec ritual, guided by shamans from the lineage of Abuela Julieta, a member of the International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers.

Trip of a lifetime
I attended the 7 day retreat in the Amazon, and this was hands down one of the most meaningful and invigorating experiences of my life. Spending a week at this center has helped me more than a lifetime of therapy ever could. I can’t even put into words how much gratitude I have for being able to attend, and meet all the facilitators, including the owner. Arkana’s staff, facilitators, and owner are some of the most genuine people I have ever met. They were all so loving and caring, and made me feel very comfortable the entire time I was there. They truly are in the business to help people heal. The center is relaxing, peaceful, and absolutely beautiful. Being in the jungle surrounded by such unique nature just made the experience even better. I would definitely recommend the Sapo ceremony. Especially if you are looking for deeper spiritual healing, that experience for me was life changing. If you’re searching for the best retreat out there, look no further. Arkana is by far the most authentic experience you can get in Perú.

A Transformation Experience At Arkana
I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Arkana and everyone involved in making my retreat an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt at home. The plant medicine offered so much healing and insight, and I’m truly grateful for the realizations it brought me. The shamans were incredible, guiding us with wisdom and care, while the facilitators ensured everything ran smoothly.
The food was absolutely delicious—each meal was a treat. The hospitality was beyond anything I’ve ever experienced, and the entire place was pristine, clean, and welcoming. I cannot rave enough about how organized and professional everything was. Arkana truly offers something special.
I feel rejuvenated and deeply grateful for this transformative experience. Can not wait to return!!!

Life Changing Experience
My experience at Arkana was truly life-changing, and I can't express enough how incredible everything was. From the facilitators, shamans, and staff to the retreat location and accommodations, every detail was executed thoughtfully. The entire experience was so well-organized, which brought me comfort as a first-time visitor and newcomer to plant medicine.
Mother Ayahuasca altered the course of my life in ways I could never have imagined. My mind has never felt so calm and clear—it's like driving down a quiet, one-lane highway with only my thoughts guiding the way. For the first time, I am in control of my mind, and I have discovered a level of inner peace I never thought was possible. The healing I received from both Aya and the shamans was nothing short of profound—physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Though it was the most challenging experience of my life, there were countless beautiful moments of bliss and enlightenment. During my journey, I reconnected with my late grandmother, relived past lives, and was able to deeply reflect on who I am and who I've become. The healing and growth were beyond anything I could have hoped for.
I wholeheartedly recommend Ayahuasca at Arkana. The retreat creates a safe, sacred space that draws in individuals seeking higher consciousness and personal transformation. The experience is beautiful, but be prepared for some dark moments—it's all part of the process, and you will emerge a more powerful, awakened being. I wish everyone an unforgettable, safe, and truly life-changing journey.

A Life-Changing Journey at Arkana Spiritual Retreat Center
My experience at Arkana Spiritual Retreat Center was nothing short of transformational. From the moment I arrived, I felt held in the safest, most supportive container, allowing me to fully surrender to the deep healing that awaited. The facilitation was beyond incredible—every ceremony, whether with Ayahuasca, Wachuma, or Hapé, was guided with profound wisdom, care, and reverence.
Through these sacred medicines, I journeyed into the depths of my soul, uncovering and releasing what no longer served me. Hapé, in particular, helped me ground and clear my mind, deepening my connection to my intentions before and after the ceremonies. I came home with a fully restored heart, a deeper sense of purpose, and a renewed connection to my path. Almost immediately, I saw shifts in my work and relationships—everything became more vibrant, abundant, and aligned.
Arkana is not just a retreat center; it is a sanctuary for the soul. If you are seeking deep healing, clarity, and a true reset, this is the place. I am forever grateful for this experience and the incredible team and fellow participants who made it all possible. 🙏✨
