My experience at Hayulima
Words are not strong enough to describe the experience I had at Hayulima. The place, the nature, the people, the food,...everything is amazing! The people are so nice, caring, humble and authentic, that just to be around them is healing. I feel privileged and blessed that my path crossed theirs. The amount of things that I learned, by being around them and through the medicine, is so overwhelming that it will take me months to unfold all that this experience brought to me. I feel that I received so so so much! This is life-changing, and in a very good and healthy way. I feel that I have not only found a new spiritual family that I love deeply, but I also came back home with the answers I was looking for, the missing pieces of my puzzle, a profound innerpeace, a more grounded presence and an endless gratitude.
Thanks to each and every soul that crossed my path at Hayulima. You'll always be in my heart. And we will see eachother again the next time I get the calling to sit with the medicine. In the meantime, I wish you all the best. Love, Isabelle

A Sanctuary of Spirit, Love and Light
Hayulima is run by a group of people who radiate kindness, integrity, openness, professionalism, faith, skill and love.
The food is amazing, the accommodations are great, the maloca is beautiful, and the grounds and surrounding forest provide a stunning backdrop to all of the proceedings.
Salvador, Amalia, Matthias, Fernanda, Diana and the rest of the team members and volunteers put so much energy, thought and love into the ceremonies. It is truly something to behold.
If you decide to take the leap, I have no doubt that you will feel grateful to become a member of the Hayulima family.

Family indeed
The environment of this retreat is truly magical. They provide a level of car, love and support that I have not experienced at other retreats. They are masters of plant based medicine and provide a safe place to work through what ever reason has called you there. I highly recommend Hayulima and will definitely be back.
