Details of this retreat

» IMPORTANT «
Before booking, please send an email to info@pranafoundation.org to check availability for your desired dates. You can also explore our social media (@prana_foundation) and website (www.pranafoundation.org) to get a sense of who we are and the work we do.

At Prana Foundation, we are dedicated to preserving traditional Earth medicines and making them safely accessible in Europe. Our retreats, mostly in Portugal, are guided by Devi Chandra Ma, a Mexican medicine woman with over 25 years of experience in healing practices around the world.

A retreat is an opportunity to step away from your daily life, to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself. Here, we create a space where your personal growth, healing, and transformation can unfold naturally, supported by experienced guides and a loving community.

Our Approach:

Plant medicines have the power to reveal deep truths and open the door to profound transformation. This can feel intense, but it is also full of potential to reimagine yourself from the ground up.
Our role as facilitators is to hold space with compassion and presence. We guide, accompany, and support, but we never lead. The work is yours to explore, with safety and care as our foundation.
Devi Chandra Ma brings a deeply maternal presence to every ceremony, holding the space with wisdom, love, and stability. The rest of the team is trained by her to assist with sensitivity, empathy, and grounding, ensuring each participant can fully engage with the experience.

During ceremonies, Chandra’s voice and instruments create a bridge to the spiritual realms. Many describe her icaros as “angelic”, a thread of safety and connection throughout the journey. You can listen to some of her songs on our website to feel the depth of her guidance.

Ceremonies & Practices:

1. Psilocybin Albino Mushrooms – Teonacatl (“Flesh of God”):
Known as Ceremonia de Velación by Mexican curanderos, this ceremony is about healing, insight, and soul rebirth. Held with respect and care, the medicine unfolds in nature, accompanied by music, prayer, and cleansing rituals. Ceremonies usually last around 6 hours, closing with grounding, nourishment, and gentle reflection.

2. Yoga, Breathwork, & Integration Sessions:
Movement, breath, and meditation help anchor insights, supporting both body and mind as you process the experience.

3. Wuachuma – San Pedro (“The Sky Opener”) & Sacred Fire Ceremony:
To welcome the New Year, this ceremony focuses on heart healing, release, and new beginnings. Guided walks in nature, sound immersion, and dance allow you to connect with the playful spirit of Wuachuma. The day culminates in a fire circle, bringing the group together in celebration, healing, and intention-setting.
Integration & Support

True transformation requires integration. After a retreat, the mind and body need time to digest and embody the experiences. We offer group integration sessions and recommend ongoing support through trusted therapists or guides. Two weeks after the retreat, an online sharing circle provides space to connect, reflect, and deepen your understanding.

After the Retreat:
We encourage participants to take time away from daily life, before and especially after the retreat, allowing the experiences to settle and integrate fully. Participants are invited to join the Prana spiritual family, a growing community dedicated to personal and collective spiritual growth.

Will return next year
Very warm, friendly and professional people, as well as my fellow guests at the event. As a newcomer to the psychedelic ceremonies, I don't think I could've found a better group for my first experience, especially for the price

An amazing and transformative experience.
A huge thank you to the whole team for making this retreat a wonderful experience. The guidance and support I received before, throughout and after the retreat, as well as during the ceremonies themselves, has really helped me to integrate the experience and is already creating a positive shift in my life. Not to mention, the food was delicious and the venue was beautiful!! I would highly recommend Devi Chandra Ma and her team to anyone drawn to the plant medicine path.

Amazing family and healing
It was my first healing retreat and I could have not chosen a better group of caring and expert individuals.
During the entire experience I have felt well-informed and taken care of, from testing the ground by asking all sorts of questions and booking the retreat with Alise, to join Chandra, Sonia and all the other facilitators in a wonderful location in Portugal where they made sure I had everything I needed.
Although I cannot put in words how awakening and impactful on my life this experience has been, I can only stress out how I completely trusted Chandra and Sonia from the very beginning, their aura exudes kindness and compassion.
I would choose nobody else than them to embark in such a transformative journey.
I am beyond grateful they have entered my life.
Can't wait to meet them all again very soon!

Magical outstanding healer and guiding light
I had the great opportunity to join a Devi Chandra Ma's retreat, and I could not ask for a better guiding light.
Since the first moment we met, Chandra has taken great care of the group and each single participant, being always present, kind and compassionate in helping walking the path of much longed-for healing. You could feel from the first meeting with her how passionate and devoted she is to her sacred calling of making the world a better place one healed soul at a time.
Chandra's therapies and healing modalities were well-organized and performed with great expertise and love, they have been a soothing balm for the soul.
I always felt in safe hands and eager to embark in the healing process with her every day.
Knowing that I am part of Chandra's big family is giving me great support and hope for the future.
Muchas gracias por todo Chandra, nos vemos muy pronto!
