Ayahuasca Retreats at our center
With a maximum of ten participants, each retreat offers an intimate and supportive environment guided by our Peruvian curandero, whose lineage is rooted in generations of Amazonian plant medicine tradition. In this safe and nurturing setting, you receive individualized care as you explore deep energetic and subconscious layers, release limiting patterns, and reconnect with your authentic self.
Since 2010, our Vancouver Island ayahuasca retreats have offered far more than ceremony, they provide a profound invitation to restore balance to body, mind, and spirit. Each experience is designed to help you cleanse, realign, and renew, so you can step forward with greater clarity, peace, and wholeness.

What to Expect
Ayahuasca has the ability to open us to spiritual realms and other dimensions. A fascinating aspect of this medicine is everyone has a unique experience and is taken through an individualized process of healing. There is incredible variety of experience, and it is best to set aside all expectations. Your process will almost certainly be different than what you have read.
Ayahuasca Healing
Ayahuasca is a powerful medicine and teacher plant that brings deep multi-level level healing physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. While a very large number of issues may be addressed with ayahuasca and other medicine plants, it is not a cure all or magic bullet. Understanding the possibilities of what you may experience in an ayahuasca retreat allows one to relax into their journey.
Responsible Ceremonies
Ayahuasca ceremonies at the Hummingbird are led by Don Manain who has over 45 years of experience, a true master plant spirit medicine. The owner is the lead facilitator and has been guiding people through the medicine plant process since 2010. Our priority is to provide a safe and sacred space for healing where you can relax into the experience knowing you will be well cared for.

Integrating What is Learned
Integrating the lessons learned in ayahuasca ceremony is what brings about lasting healing and transformation. Integration is about changing our behavior about showing up in life in more healthy, loving and effective ways. This is a simple and natural process. We learn something new and decide we want to incorporate it into our lives. After a period of attention, intention, and effort, it becomes a natural part of how we respond to life. It becomes integrated.
Taking conscious and focused action to anchor new ways of being into our lives accelerates the integration process. The Ayahuasca Retreat Vancouver island Center includes a pre and post integration session with a professional as part of the retreat price. We also have a private integration group, and detailed information on how to help develop these new habits in your life.
