Your Guides

Details of this retreat

Discover the transformative power of Bufo Alvarius in a private, guided ceremony set amidst the serene beauty of Tulum, Mexico. This intimate experience includes a personalized introduction call and dedicated integration support before and after the ceremony—ensuring a safe, meaningful, and deeply connected journey of healing and self-discovery. More than just a ceremony, this is an invitation to return to your true self—to shed old layers, reconnect with your essence, and finally feel the sense of peace that comes with the words: welcome home.
 

What is the Bufo Experience like?

" The last time I sat with Bufo was pure surrender—surrendering even the idea of surrender. Every thought, every self-reference slipped away like water, leaving nothing to hold on to. In that letting go, there was a sweet freedom: life exactly as it is, without judgment, comparison, or even the faintest urge to change.

Bufo has dissolved me before—sometimes painfully, sometimes into the bliss of absolute oneness. I know what it means, experientially, to be the Eternal Now. But the real work begins when that sublime state fades, when life returns to the ordinary. Perhaps Bufo shows us the truth—presence, completion, infinite wholeness—but it is up to me to recognize it in the mundane as well as the ecstatic.

For me, Bufo is a powerful pointer, a cosmic embrace, an acceptance so deep it erases the need to know or want anything more. I will sit with Bufo again, out of love for the medicine and the relationship. But the greater medicine lies in living what it reveals—integrating what already is, into what already is." - Sacred Heart Sonora Client.

As providers, it is our commitment to hold a safe, sacred space for you, where every part of your experience—both during the ceremony and in the days of integration that follow—is treated with the utmost care and respect. We are here to fully support you as you open to the wisdom of your journey.

After registration, the guest will be sent preparation instructions on how to prepare for the ceremony.

We host ceremonies in the yoga shala next to Taquería La Eufemia in the hotel zone of Tulum, Mexico.

If you would like to sign up for a ceremony or retreat, please visit us at www.sacredheartsonora.com and use the Wetravel links to book.  All reservations are pending the approval of a medical intake.

Schedule

The experience begins with a private consultation and instructions on the inhalation of the medicine and the process itself will be given.

After the medicine is inhaled the participant will have an out of body experience for approximately 20-40 minutes enabling a full release of accumulated stress. During this time space is lovingly held.

Once the participant is back in their body we will allow space for them to process and may offer a light snack and or juice to assist with grounding.

After the ceremony you are invited to hang out and enjoy the beauiful beach

A wonderful experience the way I was treated was very professional but the most important aspect was the love and compassion that Dr Gerry and Kate had for me before and after the journey of the Toad. I feel different with a love for my self and others.After the trip you have a perspective of life and puspose in life. Different than you have before. I definitely recommend this medicine.

I brought the set; Sacred Heart Sonora provided the nearly-perfect setting. Clean place, beautiful loving people, the distant hush of the sea, everything bathed in prayer. Confident in their technical abilities and experience, I felt very safe.

This is it!
I could not have imagined a more safe, comfortable, and professional environment to have this experience. The medicine itself reminded me of my true nature and was profoundly meaningful. Dr. Gerry and Kate are helping heal the world.

Initial cost
I had the pleasure of speaking with Kate regarding Sacred Heart and she was super friendly and informative . She was very attentive to my needs and made me feel really comfortable with making my decision to use her and her husband. I am really looking to meeting both of them when I go for my journey.

Great experience
Highly recommend..Kate and Dr G have created a safe and secure environment that allows you be vulnerable and truly let go of whatever it is you need to purge. Feels great to have that connection and clarity back. We never know how much tension we’ve been holding onto until it’s gone. Extremely grateful
