Michigan Ayahuasca Retreat for Autumn Equinox
UPDATE: This retreat is now full and we are no longer accepting registration forms for it. Sign up for our email list at the bottom of our site to be notified when the next retreat opens up.
The autumn equinox, a mystical moment when day and night stand in perfect balance, carries profound spiritual symbology. As the sun's rays retreat, casting longer shadows and cooling the air, this celestial event reminds us of the cyclical nature of life. Just as leaves gracefully fall from trees, surrendering their vibrant hues to reveal bare branches, the equinox signals a time for introspection and renewal. Symbolically, it beckons us to shed what no longer serves us, to release old patterns, and make space for new growth. Like the harvest, it is a reminder to give gratitude for the abundance in our lives, while also acknowledging the fleeting nature of time. In this delicate dance of light and darkness, the autumn equinox serves as a portal, inviting us to find inner balance and connect with the ever-changing rhythms of the natural world.

About Our Weeklong Retreats
Our weeklong retreats are more than just plant medicine ceremonies. We have daily workshops and activities centered around seasonal alignment education. These workshops focus on things like self-empowerment, shadow work, manifestation, integration, and seasonal medicine as well as lectures from the ayahuasquero about the amazon jungle as he introduces you to some of the master plants he trained with in Peru. We also have a non-plant medicine ceremonial celebration to bring in the new cycle and season of spring.
Our Staff
We will have 5-6 facilitators in total including Drew & Stormie. They will be available to help both in ceremony as well as throughout the week.
Drew is the Ayahuasquero. He has trained with a family of shipibo elders in Peru and was officially “Donned” to serve by Don Enrique of the Shipibo Tribe in 2018. He has sat in hundreds of ceremonies and has over a decade of experience with the medicine.
You can learn more about our facilitators by visiting our “team” page.
