Ayahuasca, Kambo & Bufo Retreat

Beloved Soul Family,

You are warmly invited to gather in sacred ceremony — to walk the path of remembrance with Ayahuasca and the Sacred Amphibians; ancient Earth medicines that open the doorway to deep healing, awakening, and alignment with Spirit.

This retreat is for those who feel the call rising from within… to explore the vast landscapes of consciousness, to heal what no longer serves, and to rekindle the sacred bond with Great Spirit and our Earth Mother.

It is my deepest honor to hold space for this journey — to create a loving, grounded, and intentional container where you are supported in releasing, transforming, and reweaving your being with the energies of love, unity, and harmony.

Together, we walk the beauty way — returning to the truth of who we are, in connection with ourselves, one another, and all of life.

Dates:

• Friday, March 27th

• Saturday, March 28th

• Sunday, March 29th

Location:
Hempstead, TX (Exact location /address & memo with further details will be provided a week before retreat to all participants who have submitted deposits)

This property is 500+ acres in Hempstead, TX with petting zoo: zebras, horses, cattle, buffalo, pigs etc. We have established great relationship with the souls that tend to the land here plus our shamans prefer to serve in this space. This property offers great privacy away from civilization and so much land to roam and connect to our mama Gaia throughout the weekend. The home has a spacious living space area where we will clear out the furniture to allow for you to bring your ceremony pallets/bedding to lay your body to rest after ceremony outdoors- so no need to bring your tent if you don’t feel like setting one up. We will organize the room in a manner to ensure there is space for everyone to rest after ceremony. Please message me about bringing campers and trailers.

Guided by: Carlos Chávez – Shipibo Maestro & Wisdom Keeper

Carlos Chávez is a devoted son of the Amazon — a master curandero of the Shipibo lineage whose life has been shaped through over three decades of deep communion with Ayahuasca and the sacred Master Plants of the jungle. He comes from a long line of healers who walk in prayer with Pachamama, and yet he carries his wisdom with remarkable humility, warmth, and joy. To be in his presence is to feel both deeply held and genuinely uplifted.

High in the mountains of Tarapoto, Peru, Carlos tends a sacred medicine space where he carefully prepares the Ayahuasca with devotion, prayer, and precision. Each batch is cooked in ceremony, guided by the plants themselves, honoring the intelligence of the jungle and the lineage he carries.

Carlos also holds a rare gift of vision and clairvoyance, allowing him to perceive the subtle realms where imbalance first forms. In the Shipibo tradition, the most powerful healing tool is the icaro — sacred songs received directly from the plants. These ancient transmissions awaken the medicine within, cleanse dense energies, and perform what many experience as spiritual surgery. When Carlos sings, the jungle moves through him.

It is also a deep honor to share that the medicine we will drink in ceremony is the Ayahuasca I personally cooked alongside Carlos during my most recent Master Plant dieta in the jungle — a brew prepared in prayer, devotion, and living relationship with the plants.

To sit in ceremony with Carlos is to be guided by generations of wisdom, held in joy and humility, and invited into profound healing and remembrance.
