Spring 2023 Plant Medicine Retreat in Costa Rica!
SHAMANIC INITIATION
A Plant Medicine Wellness Retreat with Ben Decker
March 26, 2023 - April 1, 2023
Join Ben Decker at Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Guanacaste, Costa Rica for his semi-annual plant medicine retreat. All accommodations and meals included, as well as tuition for Introduction to Plant Medicine Classes, Plant Medicine Preparation Training with Ben Decker, Yoga classes, breathwork, ecstatic dance, spa treatments, and four traditional ayahuasca ceremonies.
When we think of the word "initiation," we often think about the secret societies, the clubs, fraternities and sororities, and mystery school orders that have their initiation rituals. However, life itself has its own natural initiatory process.
These initiations are characterized by the learning that takes place as life unfolds, like having our first sexual experience, having our heart broken for the first time, or losing a loved one. These initiations leave us forever changed, and through the wisdom of the shamans, the plant medicine journey becomes a powerful initiation, leaving us forever changed for the better.
Embrace the depth and power of your medicine journey by consciously activating the universal technology of initiation.
This workshop will support you in the intention-setting process before your ayahuasca ceremonies, as well as integrating the visions, wisdom, and insight that comes through. Become deeply present through meditation-based exercises and develop an open-ended strategy for bringing shamanic wisdom home with you into your daily life.
Bring with you all of your honesty, all of your willingness, and all of the challenges that have held you back from your highest and fullest expression of yourself, and we will place them on the altar to be altered. Enter into this initiation with a pure heart and conscious intent, and receive the guidance, healing, and inspiration you need to be of greatest service to the collective. This week will be one that you will never forget.
