PERU IN 2022

Step out of your world

dive into the mystery of your greatest possibilities

then return: recharged and reconnected.

On this spiritual journey in sacred PERU, in addition to being uplifted and altered by the mountains, streams, and elements… we’ll also learn from the beautiful people of the land, about their traditions.

This journey blends the wisdom of the native Inca shamans, the deep-rooted history and beauty of Peru, with an opportunity to escape from our ordinary lives into the extraordinary.

Through ceremonies, experiences and onenesses with age-old nature, our inner self will expand from an anxious present to the vast peacefulness of the ancient world around us. Each breath in this beautiful Sacred Valley will fill our hearts with new life and new energy.

Plant Medicine Day or Training day

For those who are interested in plant medicine, you will meet with one of the foremost authorities and shamans of San Pedro or “Wachuma.” You will be guided through an internal celebration of self-discovery and love.

Day 3, Nov 8th, Pisac:

We will spend the day climbing Peru’s most ancient sites. Built on top of a mountain that towers over the small town of Pisac; the view of the countryside is spectacular, and the ruins and their makers are breathtaking.

We will be led on a meditation and invited to participate in a ceremony to connect to the wisdom of the Incas. We will then make our way back town into the beautiful town of Pisac for a late lunch and deep conversations about our insights.

Day 4, Nov 9th - Indigenous Community Day

We will immerse ourselves in the culture of the the descendants of the Incas—the Chahuaytire, Pampallacta, Paru Paru, Amaru, Viacha Ampay and Qotataqui communities. We’ll learn about how they live, celebrate, and eat. We will learn about their agriculture; we will dance with them and come away with a deep sense of how these indigenous people live, dream and see the world.

Day 5, Nov 10th - Training Day/ Open Day

We will spend the morning connecting to each other’s stories and lessons learned. The rest of the day will be free for you to shop in Pisaq for souvenirs or just take in a local coffee café and relax before your long trip back home the next day.

Day 6, Nov. 11th,  **Machu Picchu** Aguas Calientes

We will travel by train this morning to the village of Aguas Calientes.  On arrival, we will visit the famous city of Machu Picchu, also known as the Crystal City, the Rainbow City, the City of the Condor and the Hummingbird, the City of Peace, and the City of Light.

Amid the legendary beauty of this magnificent village we will feel the energies of the Inca trinity:

  • CONDOR—ruler of the realm of spirit.

  • PUMA—ruler of the realm of physical manifestation.

  • AMARU— the sacred serpent, ruler of the realm of the psyche, death & rebirth. 

    There are many trails and power sites to explore, and we will have the opportunity to open to a deeper experience of the intrinsic magic of this ancient city. You will spend time in ceremony to enhance your connection with your divine self, a transpersonal transformational journey into the inner path to gain confidence in your unique purpose.

Day 7, Nov. 12th CUSCO/LIMA/ DEPART

We will spend the day exploring Cusco, then we will fly to Lima where you will connect with an international flight home.
