Costa Rica Bufo Alvarius Healing Intensive Retreat

We are super grateful to Peter and Gabriel for this beautiful experience in Costa Rica. Peter prepared us carefully and Gabriel was super gentle and intuitive with us. The setting is special too, very quiet and gorgeous place. We totally recommend and would definitely come again!

This was the most incredible experience I have ever had in my life. Gabrielle is an incredible healer. He is incredibly caring and you can literally feel his calming energy throughout the process. His partner Peter is equally kind on top of being a concierge of sorts spiritually and literally for Costa Rica. Peter helped me so much. The time I spent with him before and after the ceremonies was as helpful as the ceremonies themselves. I can't recommend this highly enough. In my humble option I would suggest having a clear purpose or goal in mind to maximize benefits. These medicines work on a subconscious level and as we know our subconscious will lead us in whatever direction it's programmed for whether good or bad. I went with the intention of healing trauma to be able to move forward and escape my negative cycles that had haunted me. When I left Costa Rica I had renewed hope, but no conscious thought of how things would get better. I met my Spirit Guide while I was there, it was incredible. I had one of those footsteps in the sand moments which completely blew my mind and made me feel so protected, self assured and confident. Once I got home my road was made completely clear to me in a way I can only credit a higher power. A path was presented to me with all obstacles clear in a way that can be accurately described as "all the stars aligning". I'm in a place now that I have wanted to be for so long but had no idea of how I would get here. I credit the medicine and these two kind souls, but I wouldn't dare guarantee results for anyone else because you have to be ready and have clear purpose for your destination. Otherwise it could just be a trip. And no doubt the most incredible trip you've ever been on because these medicines are no doubt some of the most amazing on earth. Good luck friends

This journey is very personal and Gabriel and Peter are very gentle, kind, and powerful humans, with a great passion and respect for their practice. This is not something to go into lightly so be very ready and they will support your journey. You can know you are working with highly skilled and evolved people who truly want to see others flourish beyond their current limitations (physical, emotional, spiritual) I love that these two are the real deal who respect the medicine and its powerful attributes, yet carry no pretense. If that calls to you then take the leap! You have nothing to lose (but old patterns, beliefs, and roadblocks) and a world of possibilities to gain!

Incredible experience! I was guided through Rapé, Sananga, Changa, and Bufo ceremonies with immense love and care. I always felt safe and it allowed me to fully surrender to the experience, and I am so grateful for it.

Gabriel puts so much love and energy into the medicines. It truly was a special place and transformative experience!

When choosing a retreat to participate in, I would choose Gabriels over and over! He was warm, welcoming, and very communicative from the beginning. I had an initial phone call with the host, Peter, and immediately felt at ease with my choice. Once I arrived in CR, there were many times throughout my stay when Peter helped me feel comfortable and supported. My time in CR with these two was life changing and I hope that everyone gets to experience the beauty they hold and share with soul searchers. I will definitely be back and I can't give them a good enough review!
