In order to participate in the retreat, it is necessary for you to provide a letter from your doctor confirming your good health or general health status. This document can be sent to us via email as a scanned copy. Alternatively, you can bring the letter with you to Cusco. Please note that this letter is mandatory.
If you are unable to bring the letter from your doctor, we can arrange for you to have a check-up with our onsite doctor in Cusco on the day of the retreat. Please be aware that there will be an additional cost of $30 US for this check-up. If you require this option, kindly contact our staff, and they will assist you in organizing it.
For individuals with any physical or psychological medical conditions, or those undergoing medication treatment, it is essential to inform us prior to booking the retreat. This will allow us to ensure your well-being and provide appropriate care during the retreat.
Participants who are 50 years old or above are required to undergo a stress test. This test can be conducted either in your home country or in Cusco, with a fee of $55 US.
As preparation and integration of the experience we giving a powerful and ancient Inca meditation aimed at guiding you to work with the fastest and most powerful energy, there is, UNCONDITIONAL LOVE.
To prioritize your safety and well-being during the retreat, it is essential that you arrive in Cusco at least 2 days before the start of the retreat. This will allow ample time for acclimatization to the high altitude of Cusco. Considering that many individuals may experience the effects of altitude sickness, it is crucial to give your body sufficient time to adjust. If you happen to arrive on the day of the retreat, regrettably, we will be unable to administer Ayahuasca. In such cases, you will be required to reschedule for the next available date. It’s important to note that refunds will not be possible, as our primary concern is to avoid any potential health risks associated with combining Ayahuasca and altitude sickness.
Please make the necessary arrangements to book your own hotel room for the night between the acclimatization day and the retreat. However, we can offer valuable recommendations for hotels that provide convenient transfer services from the airport to the hotel.
On the day of the retreat, we will gather at Plaza Nazarenas at 09:30 am. From there, we will arrange shuttle transportation to the retreat center. To ensure a comfortable and suitable experience, we kindly request that you consume a light breakfast comprising juices and fruits while refraining from bread and dairy products.
Considering the potency of Ayahuasca as a medicinal substance, it is worth noting that it can occasionally interact with other medications or drugs. Consequently, we strongly advise engaging in a natural detoxification process at least two weeks prior to the commencement of the retreat. This will help optimize the safety and effectiveness of your Ayahuasca experience.
Cusco, located at an altitude of 3500m above sea level, is known to cause altitude sickness in some individuals. While there are medications available to alleviate the symptoms of altitude sickness, it’s important to note that certain medications can have negative interactions with Ayahuasca. To ensure your safety, we recommend avoiding such interactions.
Instead, we suggest trying natural remedies to alleviate altitude sickness symptoms. One such remedy is drinking MUÑA tea, which is commonly available in guest houses and hotels in the area. We recommend starting with MUÑA tea at the airport or during your flight to Cusco, as it can help mitigate the effects of altitude sickness. Additionally, you can consider purchasing a shot of oxygen at the airport for further relief. Should your symptoms worsen, please inform us so that we can provide appropriate assistance.
To fly into Cusco, you must first obtain a flight from your country to Lima, Peru. From Lima there are connections to Cusco from 5am to 12am (the flight is one hour long). Connections from Lima to Cusco range anywhere from 200 to 350 dollars. Some of the airlines flying to Cusco are Latam, Star Peru, Taca and Peruvian Airlines.
*It is good for you to know that different parties of people may overlap at the retreat, but they will never be more than 18 participants for any giving Ayahuasca ceremony.
