
Ayahuasca is the commonly used name to describe a tea made from a combination
of sacred plants and has been used traditionally across the Amazon basin in South
America including Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Bolivia, and Ecuador continuously for
thousands of years and is still used today by many indigenous tribes.

Ayahuasca means “Vine of the Spirit” or “Vine of the Dead”. It can be used for
different purposes such as personal transformation, spiritual initiations,
communication with the spiritual realms, dance and music rituals, for hunting (to
locate prey), religious rituals and magical practices.

The Spirit Vine Retreat Centre provides a safe space for those who choose to
participate in the ayahuasca ceremonies during the retreats.
