MIRA Putumayo - 11 days ayahuasca retreat with Cofan shamans

Doing this retreat is the best decision I've made in a long time. An unbelievable, magical experience. Words can't do it justice. The setting, the facilties and everybody involved were perfect. Couldn't recommend highly enough.

Thank Xavier, Paula, Daniel, and every body who was there with me during this retreat. I was my first time so there was a lot of things I didn't know but there are many people coming back and has been joined this retreat for many year and they are very sharing, loving and assure me. The ambiance is very welcoming like a family. The host of the place where the retreat is held is very nice and treat us with good food. They are very open when I have a question or want to have some guidance to prepare for the ceremony. They truly believe in what they are giving out and believe in the purpose of helping other people, they are funny to btw :))
It was a beautiful healing ceremony for me, I have a lot of reflection after that, feeling more humble and see more love around.
All the words cannot describe the experience, maybe I'll see you guys again when the Yahé calls me again :)
Take care all of you.

This was my first experience of Aya. The team at Mira were extremely helpful & knowledgable about the whole process making me feel very comfortable. It was truly a life changing experience and I cannot recommend it enough.

I'm very glad to have done this retreat with such kind and genuine people. I would do it again in a heartbeat. I can't recommend the Vision Mira family enough. Thank you, don't change anything and see you soon!

Starting with a long phone call with Paula before receiving confirmation for the retreat (to make sure it´s a good fit and to answer all my questions) I was made to feel so absolutely safe, supported and welcomed by the entire team of MIRA every step of the way.
I was picked up from the train station by the lovely woman who owns the house we stayed at and who dedicated herself to care for us like a mother and make us feel at home every second of the retreat. The facilities were absolutely lovely and location was really great, the house is in the middle of nature, which felt so peaceful and there´s nothing more beautiful than being able to witness the sun rise after each ceremony.
Through our sharing circles I know, that very single person in the group had a profound experience that felt like it deeply changed them and my personal experience was more than I could have ever hoped for.
I was dealing with a lot of resistance during the first two ceremonies, so much that I am sure it was very difficult to deal with me and Paula, Javi, Dani and Taita Samith each showed me so much grace and helped me so patiently in their very own way in finding the trust to surrender to the medicine so she could give me exactly what I didn´t know I needed.
On the morning after the first ceremony, I had my first encounter with Kambo. I was the only person wanting to participate on that day while many others decided for the day after so I offered to join them to not cause any inconvenience. Paula and Javi decided to do the ceremony anyway, just with me. Letting myself being cared for by these two very special humans, having their full attention and accepting and surrendering to all of it was a moment of profound healing in and of itself for me, who is so used to always care for others.
It is very difficult to find a retreat that is authentic, decolonial and not rooted in the commercialization of the indigenous culture, and it is almost impossible to do so in Europe. Believe me, I have searched for quite some time. Vision MIRA is just that. I left with deep gratitude, wonder and profound appreciation for the chance of having been in the presence of such immense indigenous wisdom and love and I am humbled by the dedication put forth by the whole team in bringing healing to those who seek it. I will be returning with absolute certainty.
The beautiful humans of Vision MIRA have created something truly amazing and special and I fully and wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone.
