Our Path

At Flower of life Ayahuasca Healing Center, we hold a sacred space for those who feel called to turn inward, heal the heart, and remember who they truly are. Our purpose is to support deep processes of transformation, guiding each person along a path of reconnection with their inner truth, the wisdom of nature, and the calling of the soul.

We are located three hours from Iquitos, in a remote and blessed corner of the Peruvian Amazon near the Pacaya Samiria National Reserve. Surrounded by the vastness of the jungle, the songs of birds, and the living energy of the river, our center offers the ideal setting to release the noise of the outside world and enter into communion with the unseen, the natural, and the sacred.

We offer medicinal plant diet retreats of 5, 8, and 14 days, as well as a 28-day transformational program and a six-week course in Sacred Shamanism and Curanderismo. Each of these paths has been created with love, respect, and deep intention to support authentic processes of healing, learning, and spiritual awakening.

During their stay, participants may take part in Ayahuasca and San Pedro ceremonies guided by Shipibo healers from the Amazon, as well as Kambo sessions and master plant diets. Our programs also include floral aromatherapy baths, medicinal plant steam baths, daily herbal remedies, and jungle excursions, all thoughtfully woven together to nourish the body, cleanse the spirit, and open the heart.

Flower of life Ayahuasca healing center was founded and is lovingly held by a Peruvian woman who deeply believes in the healing power of medicinal plants and in the ancestral wisdom that lives within the jungle. From this feminine, loving, and protective vision, a safe, intimate, and welcoming space has been created where each visitor can feel held, cared for, and truly supported.

The Medicine

Our Ayahuasca is prepared exclusively with the Ayahuasca vine and Chacruna leaf, honoring the purity and tradition of this sacred medicine. Each preparation is made with respect, prayer, and intention, with the understanding that this is not simply a plant medicine, but a living consciousness that teaches, reveals, and transforms.

As one of the few Ayahuasca centers led by a woman, we deeply honor the feminine spirit of Mother Ayahuasca. We believe in her loving strength, in her ability to guide with both firmness and tenderness, and in her power to help us remember our sensitivity, our truth, and our connection to life. For us, this feminine presence not only heals, but also awakens and restores balance within the inner world of each being.

The Lodge

Flower of life Ayahuasca Healing Center is located on the banks of the Marañón River, in one of the purest, most pristine, and spiritually powerful regions of the Peruvian Amazon. The closeness of the water offers a silent and profound medicine. Many feel that the river accompanies, cleanses, and supports the healing process in a way that is almost invisible, yet deeply real.

Our lodge was built with inspiration drawn from the architecture of Incan temples. Several female healers who have spent time in this space feel that this land carries an ancient memory, as if it may once have been a sacred ceremonial site. The pyramidal landscape, the power of the surroundings, and the spiritual presence that can be felt here make this place a natural portal for introspection, prayer, and self-discovery.

We understand that working with Ayahuasca can be one of the most intense and revealing experiences of a person’s life. For this reason, we have created a space that embraces this journey with beauty, calm, and care. We offer spacious private cabins with private bathrooms and showers, electricity at night, and small groups of no more than eight participants, allowing for an intimate, comfortable, and deeply personal experience. Our intention is for each person to surrender to the process feeling safe, supported, and at peace.

The Shamans

We work in alignment with the ancient and traditional medicine of the Shipibo people, honoring their lineage, their knowledge, and their sacred relationship with the master plants. Each retreat is held in a small group setting so that every participant can receive close, individualized, and genuine attention.

Our shamans have devoted decades to this path of learning, discipline, and service. Their experience is expressed not only in ceremony, but also in the way they listen, observe, guide, and hold each participant’s process. They are guardians of ancestral wisdom, sharing their knowledge with humility, presence, and respect.

Together with our Shipibo maestras and maestros, we also offer medicinal plant remedies and other traditional supportive tools, such as Mapacho, whenever the process calls for them. Everything is carried out with deep reverence for the medicine and for the soul of every person who arrives in this place.

Activities

Although the retreat invites silence, rest, and introspection, the jungle also reveals itself as a great teacher. To be here is to remember that nature has its own language, its own intelligence, and its own way of healing.

We frequently offer boat rides to swim with pink river dolphins, observe birds in their natural habitat, and explore the Amazon through guided jungle walks. Each journey is an opportunity to open the senses, feel the living presence of the earth, and reconnect with the mystery of creation. It is not uncommon to see sloths in the trees, armadillos along the trail, or nocturnal monkeys accompanying your walk back to your cabin.

We are located within the protected area of Pacaya Samiria. Unlike other places where extensive paths must be cleared deep into the forest, we choose to preserve the jungle in its natural state. We believe that part of the medicine lies precisely in this: allowing nature to remain alive, free, and sacred. Here, every tree, every sound, every sunrise, and every silence becomes part of the healing journey.

We also offer Wi-Fi for those who need to stay connected with loved ones, although many discover upon arriving that the most important connection is the one that awakens within themselves.

We look forward to welcoming you soon, with open hearts, into this space created for healing, remembering, and blossoming.

With Light and Love 💕

    This experience that I had at the flower of Life was undescribable, healing and everything that I needed that I didn’t even know. From the moment I contacted Nancy she guided me through so much with so much love and attention. I did an 8-day retreat with the maestro Alfredo and had the most amazing healing moments and connection with my inner spirit,mother Earth, my ancestors and guides. The shaman guided me with their beautiful ikaros through the most amazing and transforming ceremonies. I left there feeling renewed, refreshed and in love with who I am. The accommodations are so beautiful and the energy through the whole place is one of love. Peace and healing. I’m feeling called to sit back with medicine and this is the only place that I would feel comfortable. You go there and may welcome you with open arms and you leave with a new family. I recommend this to everyone who is ready to dive deep into themselves.

    I spent one month at Flower of Life Retreat and am deeply grateful for the experience. Every staff member took wonderful care of me — always kind, attentive, and supportive. The center is very clean, well maintained, and I felt extremely safe throughout my stay.

    Maestro Alfredo and Maestro Sergio are incredibly powerful, skilled, and compassionate maestros. Their guidance, presence, and understanding made me trust them completely. I felt deeply supported and protected during every ceremony, and their work had a profound impact on my healing journey.

    I would wholeheartedly recommend Flower of Life Retreat to anyone seeking a safe, authentic, and deeply transformative experience.

    My name is Michael Maison, I attended the 6 week Aya school at Flower of Life. If anyone would like to discuss my experience personally, you may PM me for a direct phone number or whatsapp to discuss.

    My first experience with Nancy was overwhelming her with about 50 emails, to which every single question and concern was answered. She eventually spoke to me directly about my concerns, and everything I asked was met with love and care. I had many requests during my stay, mostly to make myself more comfortable, as I admit I am a person that likes a bit more comfort in all situations of life. Everything I asked for was again met with Love and care by Nancy and Maestro Alfredo.

    I was very lucky to have a female co-shaman to train with, and both of us experienced life changing instances day after day. Our Maestros were always there to bring Joy and Happiness to our lives, even when we were down and almost on the brink of defeat. Maestro Alfredo helped push us through everything we went through with his wonderful smiles and laughter that is insanely contagious.

    The staff members are extremely humble people. They come from a local village as Nancy herself desires to help out the local community, every single one of them has a love energy about them that I have seen nowhere else. Always there to help, always there to smile, always there to attempt to understand.

    I will be training at Flower of Life and with Maestro Alfredo for many, many years to come. I desire to learn everything I need to in order to heal as best as I possibly can. I had such a loving, amazing experience there and I am a total pain to deal with. I could tell story after story about myself that more than likely bothered translators, staff members and even Nancy herself, but every single time I was met with a smile, told it was ok, and felt nothing but love in their care my entire time I attended. I don’t even need to expect good things to come for me when I return, I already know they will.

    Thank you so much Nancy, Maestro Alfredo, Maestro Daniel and all staff members and translators that worked their butts off to make sure my journey was met with love. I love you all forever <3 <3

    I attended Flower of Life for two years, learning and training in shamanism with Maestro Alfredo. It was the most beautiful and profound experience I have ever had. This place truly feels like my holy land.

    From the amazing staff, the wonderful chefs who prepare each meal with so much love, to the fanastic owner Nancy, and the incredible shamans who work there I cannot say enough positive things about Flower of Life. The entire space is filled with warmth, authenticity, and deep care for the healing journey of every person who walks through its doors.

    Maestro Alfredo is one of the most wonderful, loving, supportive, and caring people I have ever come across. His dedication to helping others heal is genuine and deeply felt. He truly cares about the patients and their transformation, and it shows in everything he does.

    He carries so much love, light, joy, wisdom, and knowledge that simply being around him is transformative. Learning from him and being part of this community has been a life-changing blessing that I will forever carry in my heart.

    If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. This retreat and place has become part of my heart and soul. I returned again this year (2026) for the 4th time, and it was truly like coming home to family. My group was treated with so much care and love by the long time staff, we felt safe and well taken care during the deep healing and transformative ceremonies we experienced.

    Maestros Alfredo and Sergio are such beautiful souls, and I felt completely safe under their care. Their ceremonies and Icaros were so powerful, and I am so very grateful to them for the beautiful ceremonies they created. Highly recommend these maestros! M. Alfredo is so knowledgeable about the plant medicines, he was able to treat our myriad of physical ailments as well!

    Nancy, the owner, has such a beautiful energy, and it is reflected in every aspect of what she has built in the jungle. She has created and helped to facilitate a place of peace, love and transformation. The additional time and energy work she offered to everyone in my group was very special to each person, and the perfect complement to the ceremonies. I am in awe of how much my life has been evolving and growing as a result of these continued visits.

    The lodge and grounds are impeccable, and such a beautiful, comfortable place to stay while healing. The food is wonderful, and the staff is so happy and accommodating. Very comfortable.
