Welcome to the Yogahausca Experience
At Sacha Wasi, our retreat seamlessly fuses the traditional use of ayahuasca, an ancient plant medicine used by indigenous communities in the Amazon, with the practice of Tantra Yoga, a discipline with its roots in ancient India.
The fusion of two cultures through the practice of Yoga and Ayahuasca can be viewed as a manifestation of the philosophical idea of unity in diversity. Despite their origins in different parts of the world, these two practices share a common foundation of seeking deeper meaning and understanding of the human experience.
Yoga is not only a physical exercise but also a path to self-discovery and spiritual awakening. The practice of Yoga involves not just the body, but also the mind and spirit, making it a holistic discipline that enables practitioners to access the divine within themselves. Ayahuasca, on the other hand, is a traditional plant medicine that has been used for centuries in Amazonian shamanic practices. It is believed to facilitate a profound spiritual experience that can lead to self-discovery and healing.
Together, these practices can offer a powerful and transformative experience for those seeking to expand their spiritual understanding and connect with their inner selves. The fusion of Yoga and Ayahuasca offers an opportunity for individuals to access a heightened state of awareness and experience the world in a new and profound way.
The practice of Yoga and Ayahuasca is not just a physical experience, but a journey of self-discovery and spiritual growth.
The combination of these two practices can provide a holistic approach to healing, promoting relaxation and reducing stress. Ultimately, the Yogahausca experience offers a path towards awakening and a deeper understanding of oneself and the world around us.
Experienced Yogahausca Instructors
Our experienced Yogahausca instructors will lead you through your daily yoga practice that is tailored to your level of experience and physical ability. In addition to developing physical strength, flexibility, and balance, yoga is also known for its ability to reduce stress, calm the mind, and promote relaxation, making it the perfect complement to the intense spiritual experience of ayahuasca.
Experienced Indigenous Facilitators
Our experienced indigenous facilitators will guide you through safe and transformative indigenous plant medicine ceremonies, providing a deep and powerful experience for self-exploration and healing. Indigenous plant medicine is known for its profound healing properties, promoting self-awareness, and spiritual growth.
Our retreat takes place in the heart of the Amazon, in the pristine rainforest that provides the ideal environment for healing and rejuvenation. The natural beauty of the jungle and the ancient wisdom of indigenous cultures blend to create a truly unique and life-changing experience.
We believe that the fusion of yoga and ayahuasca can help you heal, grow, and achieve balance and harmony in your life.
