Company details
Written by the company
We are a non-profit retreat center hosting ayahuasca retreats for spiritual development in the Atlantic rainforest. What makes our retreats unique are the workshops that have been designed specifically to enhance the ayahuasca experience. In these workshops you will learn tools to explore and work on yourself, and to integrate the insights that you receive in the workshops and the ayahuasca ceremonies. Our focus is to help participants apply the insights to their everyday life to make practical long-lasting changes. Another highlight of our retreats are the exquisite ayahuasca-friendly vegan meals prepared by our in-house chef who specializes in functional nutrition. We prepare our own ayahuasca brew from plants grown organically and sustainably at our center. Our retreats also have yoga classes, massages, visits to some of the most beautiful beaches Brazil has to offer, and a natural pond where you can swim and soak in the sights and sounds of the rainforest.

Best experience of my life
I realised on this retreat that you're never able to describe an experience as strong as it was felt, so bearing that in mind I'll try my best to describe my time at Spirit Vine. First of all the retreat is stunning, the way all the buildings are nestled in the jungle makes you feel immersed in nature. When I arrived I was shocked at how beautiful the retreat was, you feel at peace as soon as you get there. It's an incredibly tranquil place and there feels like a purpose to how everything is.
The food is amazing, I still don't understand how they made the food they did. Each meal had so much variety, at almost every meal there was something I had never tried before.
The yoga sessions and massages were instrumental in helping you connect with yourself which was one of the many themes throughout the retreat, connecting with yourself. The workshops were so valuable because they provided us with the techniques and cathartic experiences needed for the ceremonies and after the retreat, I'm still using them 3 weeks after the retreat has ended.
Saving the best for last, Silvia and Ti0. They are by far the wisest people I have ever met. They are so pure with their desire to help you and they provide a space for you to open up and be as honest as you can without ever judging you. Before I arrived at Spirit Vine I was struggling with a few things and after just one conversation I was enlightened on the real source of an issue and how to resolve it. Even during casual conversations you're receiving such valuable insights and wisdom which shows how they are always ready to help you and provide guidance. Before and during the ceremonies you can be quite anxious, especially if it is your first time doing Ayahuasca but they are so supportive and provide such a safe space for everyone. Before, during and after the ceremonies I sought their insight and they helped me further understand my experiences and where I needed to go deeper.
If you're considering doing Ayahuasca for the 1st or 100th time, or are interested in healing yourself, or would like to receive insights on your life, or would like to better yourself in anyway, or all of the above, I can't recommend Spirit Vine enough.
I'm incredibly grateful for all the support and advice Silvia and Ti0 provided, I don't believe it's a matter of if I will return to Spirit Vine, but when. Thank you Silvia and Ti0 for everything, I look forward to seeing you again.
