About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

Dear Ones, this year has been a time of growth, yet also of challenges and waves of intense energies for many of us – a time of dissolving the old and allowing new visions and pathways to unfold.
Now, with winter approaching, calling us to turn inward, we warmly invite you to cherish this reflective season – to dive deep into your inner worlds, guided by our beloved medicine.

Let us take this time to nurture ourselves by purifying the body, releasing the mind and return to our soul.
Let us soften and flow, embrace healing, awaken our soul’s purpose, bring forth new visions and rise with inner strength and courage — to embody them fully in our lives.

This Retreat is created for all Women on their healing journey, their journey of self-empowerment, those seeking to reconnect with their inner wisdom and soul´s purpose to embrace the fullness of their true potential.

If you´re feeling the call within, we welcome you with open hearts to embark on a profound and transformative journey with us.
What you need to bring is the courage to face yourself, the willingness to heal old wounds to find peace and transformation and the commitment to move through your shadows in order to discover your gold and true purpose.
“By healing our traumas and embracing our fragmented parts with love, we weave ourselves back into the ever-present wholeness within.
In harmonizing our feminine and masculine essence, we transcend the dance of duality and return to union.”
What awaits you is a sacred, conscious and loving space, where you can release all that no longer serves you, heal the wounds that still linger within and emerge with clarity and deeper connection.

Dive with us into the realms of powerful Teacher Plants sacred allies that guide us on our healing journey with their elevated consciousness, love and purifying energy.
Through Shamanic Drumming Journeys, we will open a gateway to the spirit world and deepen our connection to the Self and all that is.
You will experience the heart-opening Medicine of Cacao in a beautiful and sacred Womb Healing Ceremony.
In a cleansing Rapé Ceremony, you’ll meet the spirit of this beautiful medicine as it clears and aligns your energy.
To integrate the insights and experiences, we will weave in different elements of Process & Integration Work, allowing you to ground, understand, and truly embody what has moved through you.

When the whisper of your heart reminding you that there is so much more waiting to be lived,
when the quiet voice within begins to rise, calling you into self-responsibility, into healing, into the power of your true being…
Then you’re ready to embody your strength and claim your place in this world – the Path is open.
Now more than ever, the world needs the Love, Presence & Wisdom of empowered Women.
We look forward to walking this journey with you and to share a profound, transformative and heart-filled time together.

With love… Metsa Yaka & Selva

Plant Medicine Ceremony

In these Plant Ceremonies you are connecting with powerful Spirits of the sacred healing plants from the Peruvian Amanzon.
By drinking the sacred and powerful Medicine you enter the worlds of the Master Plants, which enable you to work on a higher level of consciousness and experience profound healing, purification and transformation on a physical, psychological, emotional, energetical and spiritual level.
This potent Medicine can heal traumata, transform old patterns and removes blockages from – not only this lifetime – in a profound way.
The Plant Spirits are opening you up to your inner truth, connecting you to your higher self, a deeper understanding and the blessings of life.
Through the integration of the teachings and the wisdom of the Plants, this can be the starting point to change your life and live it in full potential.
It is also possible to take part in the ceremonies without drinking the medicine.

Cacao Medicine & Breathwork

Cacao Ceremonies originated all the way back to the ancient Mayan and Aztec traditions of Central and South America, where the spirit of Cacao, known as Mama Cacao, was honored and invoked in sacred ceremonies.
Her medicine was revered for opening the heart, bringing clarity, restoring inner harmony and connecting us to the wellspring of our creativity. The heart-opening essence of Cacao has the power to unlock states of pure euphoria, releasing emotions long held within. It invites us to connect with our higher Self, our inner wisdom and the loving energy flowing through our bodies, while gently calming the mind.
For centuries, Cacao has been used as a sacred tool for healing the mental, physical, and spiritual body.
Through “Conscious Connected Breathing“, we transcend the limitations of the mind, increasing the flow of oxygen to the brain and throughout the bloodstream.
This breath activates our neural pathways and releases hormones such as Anandamides, often called the “Bliss Hormones”, guiding us into a space of profound peace. From this place of connection and relaxation, stress, anxiety and repressed emotions can be released and our awareness and creativity are heightened. In the stillness, we come into a deep sense of inner peace, love and compassion, allowing our true being to emerge.
The sacred Medicines of Cacao and Breath are a powerful combination, leading us into deep layers of healing and transformation, guiding us to a place of greater clarity, authenticity and profound connection.
„Our breathing is the direct connection to pure consciousness.“

Rapé Ceremony

Rapé (pronounced Hapee) is a sacred plant medicine, revered for its profound healing, purifying, and centering properties. For centuries, it has been used by indigenous tribes in Brazil, such as the Huni Kuin, Yawanawa and Nukini, as a tool for spiritual awakening and deep inner transformation. The indigenous peoples often sought Rapé before going out on a hunt, as a way to connect with the spirit of the animal, seeking allowance, guidance and harmony with the natural world.
Rapé is a finely ground mixture of Mapacho tobacco, combined with ash and other medicinal plants. It is ceremonially blown into the nose through a bamboo tube known as a Tepi. This powerful medicine works on both the physical and energetic levels, cleansing the body, clearing the mind, and purifying the consciousness. It opens the heart, calms the mental chatter, and clears the pineal gland, allowing for deeper spiritual connection and clarity. Rapé is especially effective in supporting focus and concentration, making it an invaluable ally for meditation and introspection.
It is often shared before or during ceremonies, creating a sacred space of focus and presence or in a more elaborate individual ceremony.

Transformative Shamanic Drumming Journey

A powerful method for self-discovery, healing, and spiritual growth.
Shamanic journeying is a time-honored practice originating from indigenous cultures around the world. For thousands of years, shamans have used rhythmic drumming to enter altered states of consciousness, allowing them to connect with the spirit world for guidance, healing, and insight. This practice is a bridge to the extraordinary, where profound wisdom and healing await.
The Journey is led by the steady beat of a drum, echoing the heartbeat of the Earth and our own heart. This rhythm guides us into a state of deep relaxation and heightened awareness, opening the door to the mystical realms.
In these magical realms, you will meet your guardian spirit, spirit animals, wise ancestors, healers and teachers offering wisdom, protection, and healing.
These encounters can provide deep insights and answers to your most profound questions.

Womb Ceremony

This sacred Ceremony invites you to reconnect with your feminine essence and honor your womb as a source of creativity, healing, and inner wisdom.
Through the heart-opening Medicine of Cacao, the nurturing practice of Yoni Steaming and guided Ceremony, you are supported in releasing past imprints, old wounds, stagnant energies and emotional blockages – reclaiming your divine energy.
It is a gentle yet powerful journey of self-love, healing and inner empowerment.

______________________________________

Yoni Steaming

An ancient ritual with roots in Africa and Asia, Yoni Steaming honors the feminine body and reconnects you with your inner wisdom and natural rhythms.
Through the gentle steam of carefully chosen herbs, it supports physical healing, releases blocked energies and restores balance.
Beyond the body, it is a sacred space to nurture self-love, awaken creativity, and reclaim your vital energy. A practice of reflection, empowerment and deep connection to your feminine essence.

Process and Integration Work

Integration is the heart of transformation, allowing you to embody and manifest the insights and healing you’ve received into your everyday life.
It occurs when the experiences gained on an energetic, emotional, and physical level are brought into conscious awareness, allowing them to take root and bring lasting change.
To support you on this journey, we will implement different elements and practices, intuitively chosen, to guide you towards self-empowerment. Breathwork, Trauma Healing, Bodywork, Shadow Work, Emotional Release, Inner Child Healing, and Inquiry are just some of the ways we will accompany you, helping you to fully integrate and embody your process with trust and strength.
