I was blown away by how cool this place is to do a ceremony, very surreal. The peace, stars, angel in the sky above our ceremony: perfect! The shamans were awesome and I really experienced something amazing, got a lot of insights. I would recommend this place for Ayahuasca retreats to anyone looking for one. Priced right too.
The people running these retreats were so nice to me, took good care of me. Thank you! I really liked Miguel’s sweetness. You guys picked good shamans.
I loved how nurturing this place is. I did a lot of hiking on the non-ceremony days, beautiful views in every direction. Took a lot of photos. Got a really great healing from one of the shamans, helped my neck stop hurting and took my headache away in a private session.
We became quite a family by the end of the 12-day Ayahuasca Retreat. Lots of support!
We stayed at Gaia Sagrada for 1 and 1/2 months and had a great time. The property and surrounding area are gorgeous; it’s a perfect setting for relaxation and healing. We stayed in an apartment which was very comfortable and all the buildings there are beautifully built. The kitchen is great and they have top of the line machines.
Christine and Bruce are so warm, welcoming, open hearted and do everything to make sure their guests are comfortable. They are also knowledgable about so many subjects that we were interested in that it made for great conversations… The plant medicine ceremonies were beautiful, and the shamans that came were very experienced…An unexpected bonus was the super fast internet which was better than everywhere else we stayed in Ecuador… It’d be hard to find another place that felt as safe and loving as Gaia Sagrada.
The shamans wrote those icaros, great songs, made me relax. They gave us the silence we needed too. I really liked the atmosphere of the ceremonies and the care that went into them all. We got individual attention, wasn’t too big. The shamans were really interesting to talk to, some of them speak English. I’m coming back!
My husband and I repaired our relationship after this retreat, very inspiring, lots of wisdom gained, saw our patterns clearly.
I had so much fun. I have some new lifelong friends. Thanks for the great memories. I’ll be back next year!
I have been to lots of Ayahuasca retreats, but this one is tops on my list of places to go. I was really pleased with the strength of the medicine, the shamans, the service oriented attitude of everyone there, the relaxed atmosphere and the food was terrific! I especially liked that lasagna and also the raw food pies! Who knew eating healthy could be so tasty? Did I mention the raw food pies?
There’s so many good things I could say about Gaia Sagrada that its hard to put it all into words. I had been reading about ayahuasca here and there since 2008 but never thought I would ever actually go do it. When I booked the trip I was in a deep, dark depression before coming to Gaia. I felt as though I was at the end of my rope and spent my days living in isolation with constant anxiety and PTSD because of recent events that happened in my life over the past two years. I found myself getting worse and worse by the day so I knew it was time to finally go and try ayahuasca. Mother ayahuasca was definitely calling me!! Now I can’t imagine what my life would be like if I hadn’t come to Gaia. This trip literally SAVED MY LIFE! I am no longer depressed. I feel fresh, recharged, free and weightless from the burdens that were troubling me on a daily basis before coming. And I felt this way after only one ayahuasca ceremony and one san pedro ceremony. It still has me in amazement.
Gaia Sagrada makes everyone feel very welcome and comfortable. Christine is one of the most amazing people I’ve ever met in my life. The shamans are beyond incredible. Bruce is awesome. And the work exchangers really bring it all together! I was taken care of from the moment I entered the gates until the moment I left. The food portions were more than I had expected and there was always lots of different choices to choose from during the meal times and outside of the meal times in the community kitchen. The location that Christine and Bruce have picked to build this amazing community is breathtaking! One of the most relaxing places I’ve ever been to. I really enjoyed connecting with everyone while I was there. I will remember this experience for the rest of my life…
I highly recommend EVERYONE to come to Gaia Sagrada. It will change your life in ways that may seem impossible now but just wait until you go there. This place is truly metamorphic! Thank you for everything you’ve done for me! I plan to come back for another visit sometime soon.
