3 Night Retreat with Plant Medicine in Tanzania

THREE-NIGHT RETREAT WITH AYAHUASCA, KAMBO AND BUFO ALVARIUS NEAR DAR ES SALAAM, TANZANIA 

In early April this year we'll be hosting a three-night retreat near Dar es Salaam, in Tanzania. The retreat will be set in a stunning luxury villa overlooking the Indian Ocean, the perfect setting to go inwards and remember who we are and what we carry inside. At the end of the retreat, we'll have the opportunity to connect with the natural world in all its wonder as we travel to Mikumi National Park, where we'll spend three nights in a lodge. These days will be spent on Safari, exploring local waterfalls, and visiting a village of the Maasai - indigenous semi-nomadic people of Tanzania.

What are our retreats?

Our retreats include a combination of ancestral plant medicines and conscious integration to open a space for each person who attends to return to their heart and remember the divinity within. We support each individual to enter into a space of expanded consciousness, going outside of the programming that we live in on a day-to-day basis and being able to step outside of it, to let it go and dare to open to something new.

We don't preach any dogma or ideology or require that anyone believes in anything new. Instead, we encourage participants to examine their own existing beliefs, so that they can decide whether they are still true, and continue to serve a purpose in life. We open a space to make the unconscious conscious, so participants can see the ideas and structures that have been governing life - without them realising it.

We’ll be sharing ayahuasca every night of this three-night retreat, with integration sessions each morning to open a space to go deeper into the previous night's experience, in order to move towards a point of comprehension of the things that have moved. Optional sessions of kambo and bufo will be available throughout the retreat for those who feel drawn to these medicines, and to aid the physical cleansing process. Note that an extra cost applies for these sessions.

We work in a non-traditional way, utilising elements from many different traditions but not following strict dogma or way of doing things. Rather, we open a space to allow life to bring whatever is needed in each moment, allowing life to surprise us. The retreats are a journey into the unknown - where everyone who attends (including the facilitators!) dares to enter into the mystery, to go beyond themselves, and to encounter something new.

The vast majority of people who attend our retreats go on to make significant positive changes in life in the months and years afterwards, with many letting go of addictions, unfulfilling relationships, careers which no longer serve, and often recovering from mental health conditions and the impact of trauma. Participants begin to see life in a new way, reconnecting with trust, and realising that life is bringing us what we need in each moment to blossom, flourish and thrive. We support each individual to live from their potential, manifesting the innate gifts that they have been born with, living from the heart and beginning to create what they were destined for.

What are the facilities for the retreat?

We'll be offering transfers from Dar es Salaam in the afternoon of Thursday 4th April, where we'll be taken to the beach. We'll be staying in two luxury houses, situated next door to each other, directly on the white, sandy beach on the Indian Ocean, around 1.5 hours drive from Dar es Salaam. Rooms are shared between two people, and each room has its own en-suite bathroom. There are plenty of places to relax and unwind during the days, or to explore the beach nearby.

Temperatures are around 30 degrees throughout the day and night in this area.
