How plant medicine works
The Essence of Plant Medicine:
For millennia, plant medicine has been revered for its ability to induce spiritual states and heal both the mind and body. Known as "little gods" by the indigenous people of South America, these plants possess powerful healing properties that modern science is beginning to acknowledge. Plant medicine works by creating new connections in the brain, altering ingrained thought patterns, and offering fresh perspectives. It has proven particularly effective in treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health conditions, often with results that surpass traditional methods.
The Healing Power of Plant Medicine:
Deep Connection & Consciousness: Plant medicine facilitates a profound connection with yourself, helping you ascend to new levels of consciousness.
Activate Healing Abilities: Unlock your natural healing ability, tapping into your body’s innate wisdom.
Mental Health & Emotional Stability: Research shows plant medicine is four times more effective than traditional antidepressants in treating depression. It also addresses anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health challenges, enhancing cognitive adaptability, creativity, and emotional stability.
Release Trauma & Negative Emotions: Free yourself from past traumas and release negative emotions like shame, guilt, fear, envy, and pride.
Inspiration & Creativity: Experience heightened inspiration, creativity, and motivation. Break through barriers, shed limiting beliefs, and enhance your self-worth.
Harmonious Relationships: Cultivate empathy, inner harmony, and loving relationships by shedding harmful internal patterns and embracing love for yourself and others.
Discover Your Life’s Purpose: Let plant medicine show you the path to finding and achieving your true purpose in life.
Overcome Addictions: Break free from addictive patterns and embrace a healthier, more fulfilling life.
Safety
Your Safety and Well-Being:
Your safety is our top priority. Our retreats are held in secure, serene settings, and all participants are carefully screened to ensure a positive and transformative experience. We source our plant medicine from trusted suppliers, and dosages are precisely measured to minimize risks.
Guided by Experienced Facilitators:
Lili and Feri, your personal guides, bring decades of experience in shamanic healing and plant medicine therapy. Lili, a shamanic healer, has dedicated her life to the transformational potential of psychedelics, blending ancient wisdom with modern techniques. Feri, an award-winning creative director turned healer, combines scientific understanding with spiritual insight to guide you on this journey. There are no external masters to follow; the true master resides within you. We cultivate an ego-free environment where everyone is equal on their journey of transformation. In this shared space of growth, we are all learners, supporting and uplifting each other as we heal together.

WHAT TO BRING
WEATHER
Bali has a tropical climate appropriate to its proximity to the equator. Year-round temperatures averaging 26-30 degrees Celsius. High humidity can be expected. The most beautiful time to visit Bali is March/April, as the whole Island is blooming after the rainy season ends; also, you will experience fewer tourists than usual.
The eating scene is dominated by health cafes, focusing on Indonesian recipes using local organic ingredients. Please note that the local food is quite spicy. Please notify us if you have any allergies or food preferences or do not support spicy food. According to the diet, due to the healing ceremony, we will have vegetarian options; however, after the ceremony, you will also have the chance to eat meat or seafood-based meals.

HOW TO GET THERE
Please book your flight to arrive at Denpasar-Ngurah Rai International Airport. The cheapest and fastest options: Qatar, KLM, and Turkish Airlines
We can arrange a driver to pick you up from the airport, or you can book your driver at the airport. Ngurah Rai International Airport is about 1h-1h30 min drive away from Ubud.

Car & scooter rental: if you wish to explore independently, we can arrange a car or scooter. Due to high afternoon traffic, we suggest to rent a scooter (approx. 5 EUR / day). If you are uncomfortable driving a scooter, there are plenty of options to arrange a cheap or a moto-taxi on-site. Even if you are an experienced scooter driver, please only go inside the Ubud area, as the traffic and rules in Indonesia are chaotic.
