Different environments. Different practitioners. Different ways of stepping away from ordinary life and into a more intentional relationship with yourself.
BUFAYA retreats are intentionally small and held with care. Some experiences take you deep into the Amazon. Others create a private container around one person in the Sacred Valley. Retreats offered by practitioners within the BUFAYA collective are listed here, with the hosting practitioner clearly identified so you know who you are choosing to work with.
Take your time exploring what is being offered, where it is being held, and who is holding the container. Every participant applies and completes screening with the hosting practitioner before being accepted.

Fifteen days in the Peruvian Amazon dedicated to master plant dieta, Ayahuasca, traditional Shipibo plant work, daily lineage teachings, rest, and personal introspection under the guidance of an experienced Shipibo maestro.
This experience asks for a willingness to live more simply for a period of time. Ceremony takes place every other night, while the days create space for your plant dieta, teaching, rest, reflection, and time alone.

One person. One private container. Ten days centered around medicine, reflection, integration, nature, and having the space to be fully present with what you came to work through.
These immersions are held privately rather than as group retreats. The pace, conversations, medicine work, and time between ceremonies are shaped around the person who is actually there.
Choose the dates that work for you. Each 10-day immersion is private and held one-on-one with Avi in the Sacred Valley.
Applying does not reserve a retreat date or guarantee acceptance. Screening gives you and the hosting practitioner space to understand what you are seeking, what you are carrying, and whether the experience you feel drawn toward is appropriate for you at this time.
