About this Retreat
Don Winister began his journey with Ayahuasca at just nine years old, following in his father’s footsteps. As he grew older, he temporarily paused his training to focus on academics and complete his mandatory military service. At the age of 21, he returned to plant medicine and has remained devoted to his path ever since. Now, at 60 years old, Don Winister has led thousands of ceremonies. Additionally, he has completed over two years of strict dieta, deepening his knowledge of medicinal plants. As a result, he is able to treat a wide range of emotional, physical, and spiritual conditions. With every ceremony, he continues his family’s legacy of healing and service.
Junior began working with plant medicine at 14, drinking Ayahuasca under the guidance of his father and grandfather. However, he later pursued studies and work outside the jungle before returning to the medicine path in 2021. That year, he undertook his first three-month dieta in isolation, receiving careful guidance from Don Winister (his father) and Maestro Romulo (his grand father).
For the past four years, he has been relentlessy working to better his knowledge and connection with the medicine, so he can offer the best support and healing to everyone that comes at the center. Junior's medicine is heartlead and heartfelt.
