Kambo Medicine Retreats
Ayahuasca Medicine Retreats
There are moments in life when we feel the quiet call to pause, to reconnect, and to remember who we truly are beneath the layers of conditioning, pain, and the demands of everyday life. Our retreat offerings are an invitation to answer that call—a sacred journey into healing, self-discovery, and profound personal transformation through the wisdom of ancestral medicines, held within the nurturing embrace of Costa Rica's vibrant rainforest and the crystal-clear Caribbean Sea.
Hosted at the beautiful Unci Maka Healing Temple, our retreats offer a sanctuary where nature becomes an essential part of the healing process. Surrounded by lush tropical forest, the songs of birds, and the calming rhythm of the ocean, participants are invited into restorative silence, allowing the nervous system to settle and the heart to open. Every element of this sacred space has been created to support deep inner work, reconnection with nature, and the remembrance of our innate capacity to heal.
Your guide throughout this journey is Julie Semarhi, a trauma-informed intuitive healer, spiritual life coach, and experienced practitioner of both Ayahuasca and Kambo. For over ten years, Julie has devoted her life to supporting individuals through profound healing and personal transformation. Her work integrates extensive knowledge of ancestral medicines with a compassionate understanding of trauma, emotional healing, nervous system regulation, and holistic wellness. Through her intuitive presence and individualized approach, she creates a safe, grounded, and deeply supportive environment where each participant is met with respect, care, and genuine compassion.
Retreats can combine the transformative traditions of Ayahuasca and Kambo, two ancestral medicines that have been honored for generations within Indigenous cultures. When approached with respect, proper preparation, and experienced guidance, these medicines can serve as powerful tools for self-exploration, emotional release, and personal insight. Julie's trauma-informed facilitation emphasizes integration, safety, intention, and ongoing support, recognizing that true healing is not only found within the ceremonies themselves but in the compassionate process of embodying lasting change.
Throughout our retreats, you will be gently guided through ceremonies, integration circles, personal coaching, nature immersion, reflection, and restorative practices designed to support your mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. Together, these experiences create a container where old patterns can be explored, limiting beliefs can soften, and new possibilities for living with greater authenticity, resilience, and connection can emerge.
Our retreat packages include a private double bedroom or shared twin bedroom accommodation in the Unci Maka canbina, which is situated in the peaceful jungle surrounding behind the healing temple and in front of a river where the immersion in nature continues to support your process. Retreats are catered with delicious, nutritious food aligned with the dieta of the ancestral medicines you are working with and can be flexible to meeting any other dietary requirements you have. This means that everything is taken care of, allowing you to relax and focus on your journey of transformation during your time with us.
Whether you are seeking healing from emotional wounds, a deeper relationship with yourself, clarity on your life's path, or simply the opportunity to reconnect with the wisdom of nature and spirit, this retreat offers a sacred space to listen inward, release what no longer serves you, and step forward with renewed purpose.
We warmly welcome you to Unci Maka, where the rainforest, the Caribbean Ocean, and the timeless wisdom of ancestral traditions come together to support a journey of remembrance, healing, and transformation.
