Sacred Renewal
Three Kambo ceremonies. Two Ayahuasca ceremonies spanning the Amazon and Andean lineages. A despacho offering, a rapeh circle, a juicing protocol, and somatic integration woven through every day.
Compost what no longer serves. Enter 2027 clarified, replenished, and aligned.
Create space for the new. Enter 2027 clarified, replenished, and aligned.
This immersion sits in the portal between the winter solstice and the new year. It is a preparation: intentional, sacred, and precisely timed. Whether you are composting the weight of a heavy year or sharpening what is already working, this is a space to restore, invigorate, and arrive at the threshold renewed.
- Invigorate a body ready to feel lighter
- Clarify a mind seeking sharper focus
- Replenish depleted energy and restore deep sleep
- Let go of what accumulated and no longer serves
- Harmonize the nervous system and reinforce immunity
- Sharpen presence, attention, and decision-making
- Align with what you are genuinely choosing next
- Refresh the emotional body and reconnect to spirit
This is for those ready to compost the weight of 2026, and equally for those who feel good and are ready to feel better. The cleanse is the preparation. The new year is the destination.
Inflammation is not a symptom. It is the source.
Modern research increasingly confirms what indigenous healing traditions have understood for generations: chronic inflammation is at the root of the majority of illness and disease. Kambo addresses it at its physiological root, the bioactive peptides of the Phyllomedusa bicolor frog work directly through the lymphatic and immune systems, triggering a deep purge of what the body has been holding. Three sessions in close succession, the traditional initiation series, compound and consolidate this effect in a way a single session cannot.
Cleanse, rest, receive. Then weave what you are choosing next.
This immersion moves in a rhythm the body recognizes: cleanse in the early morning with Kambo, rest through the afternoon, and enter Ayahuasca ceremony in the evening. Each day is a dance between active work and restoration. The rainforest holds the pace.
Nervous System Restoration
Somatic trauma-informed facilitation and the physiological impact of Kambo work together to bring the nervous system out of a chronic stress state. The body that arrives heavy leaves restored and capable of a different quality of attention.
Physical Invigoration
Three Kambo ceremonies in the traditional initiation series work through the lymphatic and immune systems to address inflammation, remove stagnation, and replenish the body's own capacity to function with clarity and energy. Juicing, adaptogenic drinks, and organic chef meals support the arc throughout.
Emotional Composting
What is carried emotionally is carried somatically. As the body releases, the emotional field follows. Ayahuasca ceremony and somatic integration move what has been layering your spirit so that what is underneath can surface and lead.
Vision and Re-Weaving
A clarified mind thinks differently than a foggy one. The final integration day is structured around re-weaving the word: articulating, with intention and witnesses, what you are choosing to grow. The despacho is the collective container for that prayer.
Three Kambo sessions. Two Ayahuasca ceremonies. One despacho offering.
The Deep Purification
Kambo is applied in the traditional three-session initiation series across the first four days. Each session builds on what the previous one opened. The acute phase, typically 15 to 40 minutes, involves a powerful physiological purge through the lymphatic and immune systems. After the purge, deep rest, then mental clarity, emotional lightness, and physical energy that extends into the days ahead.
Three sessions in close succession is how the medicine is traditionally initiated. What the first session loosens, the series resolves.
The Amazon
The first Ayahuasca ceremony is held in the tradition of the Yawanawa, honoring the integrity and power of the Amazonian lineage from which this medicine descends. We enter in reverence, carried by the songs and prayers of the tradition, on the evening of Day 2.
This is not an introduction to the medicine. It is a full ceremony held in the fullness of its lineage. What Kambo has cleared, the ceremony receives and works with at depth.
The Andes
The second Ayahuasca ceremony is held on the evening of Day 4, drawing from the teachings and chants of the Andean tradition. Where the first ceremony moves through the depths of the Amazon, the second works with the clarity and vision of the high mountain lineage. Two expressions of the same medicine, each calling a different quality of opening.
This is not an overnight ceremony. It completes in the evening, returning participants to rest. Sleep is part of the medicine.
The Offering
On the morning of Day 5, the group gathers for a despacho ceremony. No plant medicine. A woven offering built together, guided by the cosmovision of our indigenous elders. Each participant places what they are releasing and what they are calling in. Prayers are spoken. The offering is completed and given.
The Year of the Goat opens February 6, carrying kindness, peace, creativity, and resilience. You depart January 28. What was woven in the offering has nine days to root before the new year opens.
Rapeh Circle
A shared rapeh circle is held as both a grounding and an opening. Sacred tobacco clears the respiratory system, focuses the mind, and connects the group to the medicine lineage.
It is a moment of collective arrival before the deeper work begins.
Six days. A precise arc.
Arrival
Arrival, settling, orientation with the guardian team. Group intention circle. Juicing protocol begins. Early rest before the work begins.

Departure
Final morning together. Closing ritual. Departures begin. The Year of the Goat opens February 6. You cross that threshold already changed.
This immersion calls a specific person.
Whether you are composting the weight of a difficult year or you feel well and want to feel sharper, cleaner, and more alive, the intake process confirms readiness and safety for both Kambo and Ayahuasca.
This is for you if…
- You want to invigorate the body, sharpen the mind, and replenish energy heading into the new year
- You are ready to compost physical, emotional, or mental weight that has accumulated
- You have chronic inflammation or immune challenges western approaches have not resolved
- Brain fog, scattered attention, or unclear decision-making is limiting you
- You feel good and are seeking to feel better, cleaner, and more aligned
- You are ready to enter the new year with a woven intention, not just a resolution
- You are in stable health with no contraindicated conditions, confirmed in intake
This is not the right fit if…
- You have active heart conditions, kidney disease, or other Kambo contraindications
- You are in acute mental health crisis or on medications that conflict with these medicines
- You are looking for a passive wellness retreat rather than an active physical and ceremonial cleanse
- You are not prepared for a physically intense purging process
- You have not completed Ananda's comprehensive intake process prior to enrollment
What it is, and how it works.
Kambo is not a psychedelic. It produces no hallucinations and no altered perception of reality. It is the secretion of the Phyllomedusa bicolor, the giant monkey frog of the western Amazon, used by indigenous peoples including the Matsés and Katukina for generations.
Clearing heavy energy
In Amazonian tradition, panema describes heavy or stagnant energy: low motivation, persistent fatigue, foggy mind, loss of direction, chronic heaviness in the body. Kambo clears panema at the source.
Through the lymphatic system
Small superficial burns are made on the skin. The Kambo secretion is applied to these points and enters the lymphatic system rapidly. The acute phase, purging, heat, increased heart rate, lasts 15 to 40 minutes and is fully supported by the guardian team.
Bioactive compounds
The secretion contains phyllocaerulein, phyllomedusin, phyllokinin, dermaseptin, and deltorphins: compounds with antimicrobial, immune-modulating, and anti-inflammatory properties. These do not cross the blood-brain barrier, which is why there is no psychedelic effect.
Clarity that persists
Deep rest follows the acute phase. Then: mental clarity, emotional lightness, physical energy that persists for days to weeks. Three sessions in close succession compound and consolidate these effects in a way a single session cannot.
Three experienced carriers. One unified container.
