#1 PUREST AYAHUASCA
IN THE WORLD

Over decades of personal experience and scientific refinement, we developed a unique preparation process for our Ayahuasca, now recognized as #1 in the world in terms of purity (lab-tested in São Paulo).

Very few centers worldwide combine this level of scientific understanding with more than 35 years of ceremonial experience and access to such a wide spectrum of powerful ancestral plant medicines.

We work with Iboga, Peyote, San Pedro, Mushrooms and Kambo — each offered with the same level of expertise, responsibility, and trauma-informed care that defines our standard.

Why us?

RETREATS

Our retreats unfold in the protected region of Chapada dos Veadeiros, where ceremonies take place in pristine jungle, beside waterfalls, our traditional tipi, the sandbox and our ceremonial room.

We work with most of the world’s most respected plant medicines: Iboga, Ayahuasca, Peyote, San Pedro, Mushrooms, and Kambo. Retreats can include authentic indigenous-led ceremonies rooted in lineage and tradition.

Each immersion includes accommodation, nourishing meals, preparation guidance, integration support, and professional trauma-informed care.

Ayahuasca immersions

Come for 3, 8, 11 or 14 days and participate 3 to 5 ceremonies with live music and deep guidance. You can even help us harvest and prepare the medicine if you feel called to do so.

Retreats are combined with mushroom nature exploration, breathwork, and therapeutic massage.

Iboga healing Retreats

We’re one of the few centers in the world offering pure Iboga retreats. Offered within structured 7-Day or 14-Day immersions alongside Mushrooms, Peyote or San Pedro, with careful supervision and integration.

This medicine works on neurological reset, addiction patterns, trauma processing, and deep psychological clarity.

Kambo SACRED DETOX

Kambo is offered as a detox and energetic reset within most retreats. Applied traditionally, it works on the immune system, inflammation, mental clarity, and emotional release. Many participants choose Kambo before plant ceremonies to clear the blockages and prepare the body.

MULTI-MEDICINE Retreats

Unique immersive 14-day journeys combining some of the world’s most powerful plant medicines: Iboga/Ayahuasca, Peyote, San Pedro, Mushrooms, and Kambo. These programs allow each medicine to work in sequence, with proper preparation, supervision, and integration.

  • "I was "me" for the first time"

    I thank you from the bottom of my heart for this unforgettable experience.
    Thanks to you and your gigantic team as well as the breathtaking ambience, […] For the first time in my life, I didn't have to be anyone, […] The interaction of gigantic nature, medicine and, above all, your warm manner made it possible for me to finally come to terms with myself.
    It felt like I had been racing along the highway at full speed for 41 years and had overlooked the most important thing. With you I managed to slam on the brakes and get out. […] I thank you from the bottom of my heart for accompanying me to my new life.

  • "Love, respect, acceptance and joy circulate in every corner"

    The space is the experience itself, it is beyond words, it is in the realm of the ineffable. The center is the connection with the forest, it is reintegration. To know Gaya Kali Medicine Center is to know nature, it is to know oneself. Love, respect, acceptance and joy circulate in every corner. Words will always be insufficient to express the size of the gratitude I feel for everyone!!!
