The Initiation Retreat

October 9th - 16th Sacred Valley Peru

The Initiation is an 8-day pilgrimage through the valleys, mountains, and inner sanctum of the soul.

Guided by the sacred cactus Huachuma, powerful energy healing, and an ancestral Karpay Initiation with maestro Don Fermin Quispe Apaza, this retreat is a profound invitation to reconnect with your spirit and the sacred forces of nature.

Facilitated by Gaia and James, this retreat is for those who feel the call to align with their highest path and receive the guidance, healing, and transmission they are ready for.
