About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

𝗥𝗘𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗘 | 𝗔 𝗦𝗔𝗙𝗘 𝗦𝗣𝗔𝗖𝗘 𝗧𝗢 𝗟𝗘𝗧 𝗚𝗢, 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗟 & 𝗥𝗘𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗡𝗘𝗖𝗧

Whether you are taking your first steps with plant medicines or feel called to deepen previous experiences,
Release offers a safe and supportive environment for meaningful & dedicated inner work.

This retreat is designed to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, gain clarity, release what no longer serves you, and create space for a more authentic way of living.

Like all our retreats, Release takes place in an intimate group of maximum 6 participants,
allowing for personal guidance, emotional safety, and individual support throughout the journey.

✨ 𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗔𝗖𝗛 ✨
At From Gaia For You, we combine ancestral plant medicines with trauma-aware facilitation, nervous system awareness, conscious integration, and years of personal experience walking this path ourselves.

As a family-run retreat, participants are welcomed into our home rather than a retreat facility.
Many guests describe the experience as feeling part of a family where they can simply be themselves, without needing to perform, fix, or become anything.

The balance between masculine and feminine guidance is an important part of our work. Danilo supports participants through emotional awareness, self-inquiry, grounding, and integration, while Ilse brings nurturing presence, intuition, music, and heart-centered support.
Together we create a space where participants feel both supported and empowered throughout their journey.

We believe healing is supported not only through the medicines, but through every aspect of the retreat experience.
Nutrition, rest, movement, nervous system regulation, integration, music, nature, and community all play an important role in the process.

We nourish the body with healthy home-cooked meals, fresh produce from our gardens whenever possible, quality supplementation when needed, and practices that support physical, emotional, and energetic wellbeing.
Within the ceremonies, every detail matters — the music, the energy of the space, the way we hold and guide the process, and the care given to each participant.

Rather than following a fixed formula, we work with the needs of each individual and the group as a whole.
Drawing on our experience, intuition, and the wisdom of the medicines, we allow each retreat to unfold organically and adapt our approach to what is most supportive in the moment.

FromGaiaForYou review
Everything was excellent. Very much an excellently held space by 2 wonderful humans. The retreat was very beneficial and I have absolutely zero complaints of my experience, during and after. Very open and caring space that allows trust. If you go to Danilo and Isle's retreat do so with full trust and you find what you are seeking or at the very least, open the door to yourself.

what an experience.....
I am not the kind of person who writes reviews lightly, nor the kind who is easily swept away by extraordinary claims. I love science. I value evidence, rigour, and measured judgement. So when I say that what I experienced at this retreat changed me — genuinely, measurably, and hopefully permanently — I want you to understand the weight of those words.

I spent a considerable amount of time before committing to this. I researched. I deliberated. I nearly booked myself on a flight to the Amazon, convinced that the authentic jungle setting was non-negotiable. What I came to understand, slowly and then all at once, is that the setting matters far less than the people holding the space. That realisation brought me to Ilse and Danilo — and it was the best decision I have made in years. (For what it's worth, the retreat itself is set in an idyllic natural landscape. You will not feel short-changed on that front.)

I will not describe in detail what happened during those days. It would be both futile and, I think, a disservice to you. The reasons that bring each person to ayahuasca are their own. What you feel, what surfaces, what shifts — all of it will be uniquely yours. What I can tell you is that those days felt like one long, immersive dream. No words I reach for do justice to the experience, and I have made my peace with that.

it may be helpful to very briefly share why I went, to underlyine what I came back with.

I had lost myself. A prolonged period in a deeply toxic work environment had hollowed something out in me — layer by layer, quietly and then catastrophically. Insecurity had taken root. Impostor syndrome had become my constant companion. A heaviness had settled in that I had almost stopped noticing, the way you stop noticing a persistent noise until it suddenly disappears. I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

I came back changed. There is no more precise way to say it. I carry a baseline of positive energy now that feels like my own — like something that was always there, returned to me. I have not stopped smiling. People around me have noticed before I even said a word. I have forgiven people and things and more importantinly i have forgiven myself. I feel strong, confident, and serene in a way I had not felt in years, perhaps ever.

None of that would have been possible without Ilse and Danilo. Their commitment — to the medicine, to the process, and to each guest — is genuine and palpable from the very first moment. Their positive energy is not performed. It is structural. It holds everything together.

If I were to offer one piece of advice to anyone considering this: relinquish control. Let them guide you. Resist the urge to ask too many questions or map out what is coming. It will take a day or two just to understand that time moves differently here, that the rhythm is not yours to set. Surrender to it. Focus inward. Listen to what comes from within you. There will be difficult moments — this is not a gentle or comfortable journey. But it is a real one.

I am glad I went. I am especially glad I went with Ilse and Danilo.

The #1 Life-Changing Retreat in Europe for Absolute Safety & Deep Healing!
If you are looking for a place of true integrity, profound healing, and absolute safety to face your deepest layers, this is it! Do not hesitate to book your retreat!

It is not just an ordinary getaway; you are becoming a member of a beautiful Family. This connection gives the whole experience such a warm, personal touch.

Words can hardly describe the depth of the transformation, care, and love I experienced during this time. It was, without a doubt, the best thing I have ever done for myself. The space provided by Danilo and Ilse felt incredibly safe, grounded, and professional, which allowed me to fully surrender to the process. I experienced a profound somatic release of control, fear, and shame. I literally trembled years of trauma out of my nervous system.

Coming out of this retreat, I feel absolutely wonderful. I feel light, reconnected, and deeply healed. It was exactly what my soul, heart and body needed.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Luv, Aga

Beautiful and transformative 💗
🤍
Such a beautiful, safe, and life-changing experience. Ilse and Danilo are truly beautiful souls, and the love and energy they created in this space is something I’ll never forget. It’s not for the weak- you really have to come ready and open for deep transformation. I’m still trying to settle into my new reality after it all.

I miss everyone I met there so much already… the people, the family, the dogs, the entire atmosphere. Everything was magical. I will definitely be back again. 🤍

Incredible second visit to this sanctuary for healing
I have just been back to From Gaia For You for the second time, and had another hugely profound experience always held with love and care by Danilo and Ilse.

It's hard to find words that articulate my experience here, but...

During my first retreat I gained clarity on many things and decisions I needed to make during a transitional time of my life. Coming back for the second time, I moved through some difficult memories and topics and had some profound releases under the support and guidance of Danilo and Ilse. I went through some really difficult highs and lows and felt like my hand was held throughout.
Their home is the perfect setting for healing, from the lush nature surrounding, their responsible and conscious use of the medicines, the joy of their two children, their six therapy dogs - and many other things - but most of all the attitude they bring to what they do and how they live and embody loving family life.

I felt truly held in this space, free to be myself and express whatever I needed, and once again, the experience has been such a gift. Now I feel much lighter, more empowered, and regulated and calm in my nervous system than ever before.

I highly recommend this retreat for anyone looking to make positive changes in their life and foster a deeper understanding of themselves, especially over a longer process of multiple retreats under the support of Danilo and Ilse. Thank you thank you thank you 🙏
