About retreat

Healing is happening from the inside out.
The body and the psyche have the natural ability to heal, they just need the right environment.


In our retreats we are providing exactly that: a safe and non-judgemental space and all the tools for you to heal, to find yourself, to find your deepest level of empowerment. From psychedelics assisted therapy with magic mushrooms to yoga, meditation, hypnosis, energy healing, art therapy, and plant medicine, we offer a combination of tools that is unique in Europe. We, in our healing journey, have used these tools and are very experienced with them. The combination of these tools will make your transformation comfortable, profound, and easy.

There are many Ayahuasca retreats available. Our main differentiator is our focus on preparation and integration. Starting with the introduction call, we will make sure that you know what to expect. Using elements of Rapid Transformational Therapy and psychoanalysis, we help you understand yourself. In our sharing circles and in the 1 to 1 conversation , we will help you make sense of what you have experienced. We build a bridge between the language of psychology and spirituality, to help you make sense and easily integrate the wisdom received from the remedies.

However, the real work starts after the retreat, when you will integrate the teachings from your journeys into your day-to-day life. This is why a part of our offering is focused on post-retreat integration.

We will also work with you to find out whether the right medicine for you would be Ayahuasca, Magic Mushrooms (psilocybin), or San Pedro. Kambo and Bufo Alvarius (5-MeO-DMT) are available too. A combination of these sacred tools is also possible. Whether it will be Magic Mushrooms, Ayahuasca, San Pedro, Kambo, or Bufo Alvarius your safety comes first.

Retreat activity

Plant Medicine

The main medicine we are working with is Ayahuasca. Although we work with amazonian Shamans from time to time too, we are no shamans, we are facilitators, the main difference being that we stay sober during the ceremonies, to give you the best support possible.

Instructors and Staff

Bianca

Instructor

Founder of Vine of the Soul Retreats

Experiences

Healing

I've always been interested in psychology, since I was a child. That didn't keep me from stepping into my mothers' footprints and falling into depression in my adult life. I also struggled with insomnia, psychosomatic backpain and felt miserable overall. Although successful in my career, I was terrible at relationships and had no boundaries. I felt I am a terrible mom.

Then I met Ayahuasca. She literally opened me up towards a new life.

When I decided to help others by using these ancient remedies, I visited several retreats to gather experience. I learned all the dos and don’ts and those experiences helped me shape my own offer and values.

In my approach, I use elements of Rapid Transformational Therapy to help you understand yourself.

I am fluent in English, German, Romanian and Hungarian.
