Paths of the South Retreat — Jaguar & Condor

A 15-day journey through jungle, mountain, and living ancestral wisdom

We invite you into a rare and deeply intentional path of healing and remembrance. Over fifteen days in Colombia, we will guide you through two sacred territories — the lush jungle of Antioquia and the quiet, expansive mountains of Ubaté — allowing the land, the medicines, and the elders to become our teachers.

In the jungle, life slows to the rhythm of the river and forest. Here, you are supported to cleanse the body, calm the mind, and reconnect with your inner truth through ancestral plant medicines, daily plant and river baths, fire circles, elemental teachings, and Yagé ceremonies.

The journey continues into the highlands of Ubaté, where the Mamos of the Sierra Nevada receive us into their territory. In this colder, more spacious landscape, the focus shifts toward balance and integration. Through sacred rituals, conversations, songs, and ceremonies, the Mamos guide you in harmonising body, mind, and spirit and grounding the transformation from the first part of the retreat.

Throughout the retreat, we weave together ancestral wisdom, elemental teachings, and embodied practices to support lasting change — not as an escape, but as a return to living in alignment.

What’s included in this retreat:

• A 15-day all-inclusive retreat, including transport, accommodation, food, and ceremonial medicines

• Preparation support before the retreat, helping you prepare physically, emotionally, and mentally
