Queer Healing with Ayahuasca
Walking the grounds at The Temple of the Way of Light.
“It’s really tough to be a person,” I heard a voice speak as I drifted back toward the present, the dawn beginning to illuminate the alien landscape of the Peruvian Amazon. I had spent the previous night in an ayahuasca ceremony sobbing, writhing in agony, and traveling through time, targeting the sources of grave traumas I carried.

For the LGBTQ+ community, this connection to ancient wisdom can be particularly empowering, offering a broader perspective on identity and spirituality.
The Healing Power of Nature
The lush rainforests of Costa Rica provide the perfect backdrop for our psychedelic retreat. The natural setting amplifies the healing properties of plant medicines like ayahuasca, creating a synergistic effect that enhances heartfelt and spiritual well-being. Nature itself becomes a co-facilitator in
