Mai Niti is our family run traditional Shipibo healing center based in our homeland; the Amazon region of Peru (Pucallpa). We’ve been working as Maestros for many generations, and have a profound depth of ancestral wisdom and knowledge with respect to the plants and healing.

Our aim is to awaken you to your true potential by expanding your consciousness and healing your mind, body and spirit.

Mai Niti in English means Clarity of the Earth. By living in symbiosis with mother earth, she gifts us with the clarity and insight needed to do the work that we do. It fills our hearts with joy to see the people who come here leave healed, happy and free, with a deeper connection to themselves and awareness of their true nature. At Mai Niti, we work with sacred plants in a way that opens one up to receive the knowledge and healing power the plants have to give. Among these sacred medicines we work with is ayahuasca.

At our core, compassion is what guides us and empowers us to do the work that we do. Our doors are always open to all who come in need of healing.

The Curanderos

Maestro Leonardo

Leonardo has been working with the plants since the age of 12. Now, aged 85, he has over 70 years experience with plant medicine and ayahuasca.

Maestra Lucilla

After rigorous training from Leonardo, strict dietas, and many years in isolation, Lucilla has followed in her father’s footsteps to become a maestra.

Our Center

When you step into Mai Niti healing center, you will be met with the love and compassion that are at the core of the curanderos work. You will quickly become part of the family, and the curanderos are truly here for you every step of the way in your healing journey.

Mai Niti healing center is owned and run entirely by the curanderos and their family. For this reason, they have the freedom to run the retreats in the way they feel is right, in order to bring the deepest level of healing and care to all who come.

This is also why they can offer retreats and long term stays to guests for such a low price. The curanderos feel that ones financial situation should never be a barrier to healing. For this reason it is important to them to keep the cost as low as possible for guests.

The curanderos and their family will be with you every step of the way to ensure that you have a truly trans-formative healing experience, and that you find what you are seeking. Living with them on their land is a truly eye opening experience in which you will not only have the opportunity to heal and grow, but to experience life in symbiosis with nature, the way the Shipibo do.

Healing

Ayahuasca and master plants can help to bring about a profound healing of ones body, mind and spirit as well as transformation of ones life, and awakening to ones true potential. These sacred medicines allow us to access deeper parts of our consciousness and psyche, and uncover and uproot the things that block us from living our true potential as healthy, happy and free beings.

These sacred plant medicines can be a powerful ally to you if you are seeking any of the following:

To heal trauma and deep routed psychic wounds
To release unconscious emotional, psychological and spiritual blockages
To heal physical and mental diseases at their root
To release deep rooted fears and doubts
To align with ones soul purpose and calling in life
To expand and awaken ones consciousness
To heal ancestral and family karma
To uncover ones innate healing abilities

Staying at Mai Niti is one of the greatest gifts you could possibly give yourself. There are so many things I could start with but I believe before anything I have to start with Lucy and the other Maestros. Before I even met her and the first week I was here I didn’t have a conversation with her without crying and I mean that in the best possible way. She can immediately see inside you and know what you need just by looking into your eyes. She does it with such care and compassion that I felt like a child with my mother. I didn’t have to hide anymore and I didn’t have to pretend to be anything or anyone anymore because she could see through whatever “mask” I put on regardless. I’ve never felt so naturally safe and comfortable with a person in my life. I have done plant medicine before and worked with many shamans and no one comes even close to Lucy and her skills. Beyond the shamans, the volunteers and helpers around the center are so incredibly helpful. Whether you need some advice or insights into your ceremony or process, or you need a shoulder to lean on or someone to cry with, or just a friend around the center they’re always there for you. The food is made with such love and so creatively even with all the traditional Shipibo rules in place. (If you see the chicken or fish, you know it’s going to be a good day!) The simplicity of life that you see being lived everyday through the Shipibo people and people that live around the area is beautiful. It’s strange at first, but eventually you come to love it and want to keep it in your life. They are amazing at communicating even if you don’t speak spanish, like me! No matter what you need or what questions you have, someone will always be there to answer or help you. If you’re lucky enough to have stumbled across Mai Niti Healing Center, you have found real treasure. I have never loved myself more, and I came here 30 days ago in the darkest and lowest point in my life. You will be so happy when you decide to come to the center.

I have been blessed to work with the medicines for many years. But this past summer was my first trip to Mai Niti. And it will definitely not be my last! The level of care you receive is soul soothing. True healing in an honest and sincere container. I felt safe, seen, respected and valued. The family vibe, the trust, the integrity of the maestros is a true gift. I highly recommend this center.

Mai Niti is more than a healing center, it’s a healing community. The maestros Lucila and Leonardo create individualized plans, guiding each to balancing mind, body and spirit. I was at Mai Niti for two months and laughed, sang and danced more than I have in years. Deep bows of gratitude to this family for sharing the Shipibo traditions, carrying the plant medicines and reminding us who we Truly are.

Blessings to all that make the choice to come to Mai Niti and welcome to the family. Thank you to the volunteers and chefs as well; catering to the needs of each guest and organizing unique outings.

This is the place to come for truly deep healing guided by lucila and Leonardo with so much care and love. Ive been to a few various retreats and none were able to give the same level of personal healing and specific plants for your journey. It’s not as glamorous as some retreats but far superior in terms of healing. This is a retreat centered around family, community and love. I am forever grateful for my experience here which has guided me to a beautiful path. Thanks to all the team who were always pleasant and considerate X

I spent an incredible 2 months at the Mai Niti center. This is the place where you will become healthy and happy. Lucila and Leonardo are true healers who bring their heart to work. All the time I felt like a part of a big family. Thanks to them and thanks to all the volunteers who took care, interpreted and prepared the food. I got more than I expected. At the last week, something incredible happened that will stay with me forever. It feels like I no longer need anything external, because there is a power within me that can cope with anything. Thank you for showing me this. With love and peace, Maxim.
