Pucallpa -Peru, 2026

Come and join us once again on a 13-day immersion with Maestro Juanita at Tierra Vida retreat centre, Yarinacoche Lake, Pucallpa, Peru.

For many years, I have been travelling with groups assisting in their personal journeys and transformation with the Maestra Ayahuasca.

Ayahuasca is a master plant, some say: The Master Plant, The grandmother. She guides us on our journey to self-knowledge. To welcome ostracized aspects of ourselves, to purge and release what no longer serves and what is becoming an obstacle on our journey of becoming.

KNOW THYSELF, a statement attributed to Socrates and inscribed at the entrance of the Temple of Apollo in Delphi.


“Socrates’ phrase “Know Thyself” emphasises the importance of self-knowledge as the foundation for acquiring other knowledge. He believed that individuals often lack understanding of concepts due to their lack of self-knowledge. By understanding oneself, Socrates argued that one can gain a better understanding of others.

and the world. This maxim is also associated with his idea of “Socratic ignorance”, where acknowledging one’s own ignorance is the first step towards wisdom. Lastly, it’s linked to his theory of recollection, suggesting that knowledge is innate and can be discovered within oneself.


With the assistance of this amazing Master Plant, our Maestro Juanita and myself, we will embark together on a journey of discovery. Sometimes challenging, often soothing, a journey to the jungle can allow us to escape our “comfort zones”, step outside of what we call “the ordinary” life and take the space and opportunity to know ourselves on deeper and more meaningful levels.

Assistance with integration is given throughout.
