About this Retreat
Hello, my dear friend on this extraordinary journey. My name is Vittoria, and I am truly delighted to connect with you here.
From a young age, Iโve had experiences with altered states of consciousness and a heightened sensitivity to the world around me. Growing up in a family where half are doctors and the other half artists and entrepreneurs, I have always been surrounded by a vibrant, creative energy.
This environment allowed me to travel extensively and study at some prestigious institutions, all while benefiting from the healing practices of Reiki sessions, art therapy and yoga. My academic pursuits have included philosophy, ancient Greek and Latin, biology, astronomy, foreign languages, and visual arts.
For the past decade, following the loss of a beloved one, I have dedicated myself to serving as a facilitator of sacred plant medicines, including ayahuasca, kambo, bufo alvarius, San Pedro, iboga, yopo, and a variety of indigenous Colombian remedies. My journey with these powerful master plants has been profoundly transformative, allowing me to embrace their healing properties and learn the art of facilitation.
Guided by my innate sensitivity, vivid visions, and intuitive insights, I have uncovered my true purpose and cultivated a deep compassion for all the remarkable souls who feel called to embark on this sacred path. Each experience has deepened my connection to the spirit of healing, and I am continually inspired by the beauty and resilience of those I have the privilege to support.
I truly look forward to the opportunity to meet you in person soon. Sending you a warm hug!
I am Gustavo Gnosis, with three years of training at the D Art Academy in Valencia and a specialization in Applied Positive Psychology. For over seven years, I have guided retreats for psychotherapy assisted by psychedelics in various countries such as Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Italy, Turkey, Mexico, Colombia, Uruguay, and Greece. This international experience has allowed me to understand diverse cultures and adapt my methods to different contexts and needs.
I specialize in psychotherapeutic techniques that help people discover and enhance their abilities without focusing on traumas or cathartic experiences. My goal is to guide individuals to find their true being by understanding their inner language, which contains the necessary tools to recognize their essence and divinity.
My approach is based on the idea that the pursuit of enlightenment is an illusion created by the mind. I invite people to pay attention to their direct experience of the present moment, free from conceptual interpretations. I believe that the mind is the source of all problems and that true transformation occurs in daily life by accepting reality as it is.
Since I became aware, my analytical and explanatory capacity for everyday phenomena has been part of my worldview. I am motivated to help people understand the reality that often goes unnoticed due to various factors that hinder true perception of things, the world, and others.
I do not offer a path to enlightenment but rather an invitation to stop searching. My services are focused on sincere inquiry, inviting individuals to question all their beliefs and explore the nature of the mind; on accepting life as it is, with all its imperfections and contradictions; and on facilitating the transformation that occurs in day-to-day life, in every moment.

If you're interested in booking a session, you can reserve your spot via RetreatGuru and send us a message with your preferred date and time.
A typical Bufo Alvarius ceremony lasts between 3 to 4 hours, encompassing arrival, preparation, the ceremony itself, and integration. During the session, we will guide and support you fully, ensuring a personalized and intimate experience without any additional participants.
Since this is a private ceremony, we proceed at your own pace, with customized dosing tailored to your needs. Within the same session, you may take the medicine multiple times while staying within safe dosage limits. Most participants choose to experience an initial introductory dose followed by a higher dose.
Prior to your arrival, we prepare the space both physically and energetically. Upon your arrival, we will take time to settle in and address any lingering questions. We will engage in exercises to relax the body and mind and practice the inhalation technique to ensure you feel comfortable and prepared.
Live music and sound bath, including shamanic instruments and singing, will accompany the ceremony to enhance the experience and guide you through the process.
The effects of the experience often extend beyond the ceremony itself, offering continued opportunities for reflection and growth over the following months.

Bufo Alvarius is considered one of the most powerful entheogenic medicines available. Derived from the toads of the Sonoran Desert, this sacred medicine offers profound healing and spiritual growth with deep love and care.
The medicine is inhaled as vapor, producing effects within seconds. The peak experience occurs within the first minute, lasting around 5 to 15 minutes, with lingering effects up to an hour afterward.
The primary active compounds are bufotenine and 5-MeO-DMT, a natural neurotransmitter in the human brain. This molecule is released in greater quantities during moments of transcendence, such as birth, near-death experiences, deep meditation, and death. Because of its profound nature, the medicine is often referred to as the 'Spirit Molecule' or 'God Molecule.'
Ethical Sourcing: we work exclusively with ethically sourced Bufo Alvarius medicine.
