At the Nimea Kaya Healing Center, we are dedicated to offering traditional Ayahuasca journeys, working alongside both male and female Shipibo healers. Our Shipibo healers carry decades of wisdom and knowledge through working with master teacher plants. Through our retreats, we aim to support our guests awaken to their fullest potential by healing their bodies, minds and spirits. Our focus on health, nutrition and self-sustainability in our peaceful and eco-friendly environment lends to a deeper healing process where long lasting positive impacts are made in the lives of our guests. With over 16 years of experience leading Ayahuasca retreats, we have helped support thousands of guests from all over the world transform their lives.

Our Selva Spirit Association NGO focuses on raising the awareness in the preservation of shamanic traditions, reforestation projects as well as multiple health programs implemented in the surrounding communities.

Shamanic Retreats:

Our shamanic retreats are designed to accommodate each individual on their path of awakening and healing. We offer a series of three or four Ayahuasca ceremonies per retreat with a local Shipibo Shamans, also known as a Curandero or Maestro. Our healers have been well established in the shamanic ayahuasca practice for several decades. Our medicine is brewed with only the ayahuasca vine and chacruna leaves. Our ceremonies are facilitated with the utmost integrity and responsibility. There are always four to six of our staff members in every ceremony helping our guests through their healing journeys with the sacred medicine. Drinking the ayahuasca medicine during ceremonies allows the participants to expand their consciousness to a multi-faceted universe. Ayahuasca takes the individual through a process of cleansing the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies. The individual journeys through a series of visions often receiving profound realizations that lead them to a place of healing, understanding and balance within themselves.

During the course of the retreat we offer facilitated group sharing and one on one counseling. Our groups are no larger than 14 people so we may accommodate a more intimate and personal setting during ceremony. Our ceremonial Maloca is very spacious, providing a comfortable environment for the profound experience. It is situated in the midst of beautiful native plants and trees where where natures orchestra graciously joins us in our sacred ceremonies.

We provide for our guests with herbal and floral baths with a unique blend of plants and flowers from the surrounding jungle after each ceremony. The plant baths help to wash away any negative energies stagnant in the body and help prepare the participant for a more profound healing with the plant medicine Ayahuasca. The invigorating and cleansing bath will help rejuvenate your spirit.

I attended an Ayahuasca retreat at Nimea Kaya in July of 2017. It was a remarkable experience that I’ll always remember and reflect on. The staff was fantastic. They were ALL loving caring and supportive. Everything was well organized and the vegan meals were great and plentiful. I loved the indigenous shaman facilitating the ceremonies. The Shipibo people bringing their artwork and clothing to sell was also a great experience. Great people everywhere. All in an environment where I felt safe and secure from the very beginning.
Some parts of the ceremonies were a little tough but there were times where I experienced the warmest feeling of love and a connection to all those present that is hard to describe. This was my first and I plan on returning to Nimea Kaya again. Gary Abel

I have been to Nimea Kaya twice on April 2016 and September 2017 and my experience has been amazing. The healing center is conveniently located not too far from Pucalpa and from the time I got picked up by the facilitators at the airport, I felt the warmth, kindness and love the like you get from old friends and family members. The healing centre is well structured and eco-friendly. The Shipibo staff cooked for us delicious food ( I am italian and I love my food and had the most amazing vegetarian food EVER!)the facilitators helped us with morning and afternoon grounding exercises,
Jill and Casey have always been there to support and answer any questions. To me the main 2 core moments of the 9 days retreat were, of course, the 4 ceremonies were I have been guided and taken care of by 4 amazing shamans ( Augusto and Ercillia in the 1st and 3rd ceremony and Diodemero and Rosenda in the 2nd and 4th ceremony) and their incredible icaros and by the 6 facilitators whom are true human angels whom took care of us through the 7-8 hrs ceremony with dedication and pure love… I can not describe enough the kindness and professionalism of the NK staff and the overwhelming greatness of the shamans. I felt safe and in good hands all the time during the 9 days so I also decided in my second trip to Nimea Kaya to bring my wife. The 2nd key part for me was the integration sessions which are held the following day of the ceremony where everybody is free, if they want, to share the experience… no judgment, no ego, just pure compassion and openness in listening to everybody’s experience…. just amazing…I cannot recommend this place enough really… you are in the middle of the jungle, with local shamans, professional staff that takes care of you in an eco friendly center where they feed you with good food and makes you brew your own Ayuhasca… what else would you want?….it is a truly transformational experience from a mind, body and spiritual point of view. I bless the day I crossed path with Jill, Casey and the Nimea Kaya team. I am going to go back….Thanks Nimea Kaya!

I’ve been to Nimea Kaya for my very first ayahuasca experience in February 2018 and couldn’t have chosen a better retreat.
This magical place and its staff are very welcoming and beyond supportive, the bungalows simple but cozy and there’s lush nature all around. The food was absolutely amazing and to this day I make their legendary green smoothie for breakfast. I really enjoyed all the offered activities during the 9 day retreat, especially that we helped to prepare our own ayahuasca brew ( we used it for ceremony 3& 4), a visit to a Shipibo village that was a 2h boat ride up the Ucayali river and the nature medicine walk.
The preparations leading towards the first ceremony were outstanding – most of us never worked with mother ayahuasca before and we could always share our concerns/ fears/ questions with any of the staff. On ceremony days we prepared ourselves with only a light lunch, an afternoon off or yoga and meditation in the maloka .
The ceremonies were always lead by two Shipibo shamans ( male and female) and facilitators with a very high staff – guest ratio.
I felt safe and in good, professional hands throughout the ceremony and knew someone would be with me shortly in case I needed support.
Despite the fact that I had a really, really tough time during each of the 3 ceremonies I attended ( skipped the 4th one) , I learned so much about myself and my life has completely changed since then.
What I really want to highlight is that the volunteers went above and beyond as I definitely was a case that needed some extra love and support.
I arrived at Nimea Kaya with a great deal of emotional baggage, traumas, 3 different, serious auto-immune diseases with multiple sclerosis being just one.
I had a volunteer sit with me pretty much during each ceremony, just holding my hand or comforting me, they knew exactly what I needed in that moment and I’m forever grateful for their care and support helping me in my own healing process.

The facilitators at Namea Kaya were always there for me. Some of them have profound words of wisdom and philosophy and some provide grounding by simply being there, listening, and sharing their story. Casey and Jill have created a space and business based upon integrity of the experience. They truly care about their guests. The food is amazing! The facilities are clean and comfortable. The Shaman! They blow my mind and bring me back down to Earth with peaceful calm.

The only thing I didn’t like was the noise from Pulcallpa. Late night load music drifting into the retreat space and morning announcements from the distant church load speaker. And the jet planes interrupting ceremony. The jets were actually kind of a cool part of the experience. They reminded me that the “matrix” exists and that I am not here to escape it, but rather to learn how to change it. Casey has planted lots of bamboo which will hopefully grow to an adequate sound screen.

Nimea Kaya Healing Center is a special place! I spent two years doing research about Ayahuasca and possible retreat centers in Peru. I wanted to have an authentic Ayahuasca experience something true to the traditional ways of taking the medicine. After two years of research, I decided that form all the reviews and feedbacks that I read that Nimea Kaya would be it. I attended a 9 day retreat with 4 ceremonies that was truly life changing. The Shamans were the real deal true Shapipo Shamans with opens hearts and well versed in the healing properties of the jungle. Besides the immense healing that happened to me on a spiritual level my physical body got a much needed detoxification that put years back on my life. The accommodations were pleasant and very ecological which was a big plus for me. The facilitators were all very experienced and extremely compassionate. Never once during the 9 days did I feel unsafe. The staff as well as the other participants were all very warm and friendly. From my experience this center attracts some wonderful human beings some that I keep in touch with now and consider friends. The property is beautiful and feels like you are in the heart of the amazon even though you are not. The food is a vegetarian diet locally grown and is wonderful especially the bean burgers . If you never have eaten vegetarian this is a good diet to try during this experience and they do a great job of making tasty food. There was a wonderful art fair on the last day were local artist came and sold there ayahuasca inspired art which was a nice touch to take home. Im writing this review because I truly feel if your consideration taking ayahuasca you should know that safety is a big consideration and this center is a safe place where you can have the healing or experience your looking for. I recommended it to a girlfriend of mine from Germany who went by herself two months after I went and also had an incredible time. I would have never recommended it to a friend let alone a female friend traveling alone from across the world if I didn’t believe it was safe. I hope my reviews helps you on your journey. Good luck
