Medical & Psychological Screening
Free consultations are conducted before booking. So you can be sure participation is safe for you.
We Offer Retreats Like No One Else
Huachuma, the cactus of the four winds, inspires every Mountain Wind journey, with experienced guides and sitters beside you all the way. Explore our first two retreats: Raymi Retreats, Huachuma within the ancient festivals of the Andes, and The Serpent & The Condor, from jungle Ayahuasca and Kambo to mountain Huachuma.
Overwhelmed by Choices?
We shape every Mountain Wind retreat around the right guests, not the most guests, so we’ll tell you honestly if a different path suits you better. Book a consultation and we’ll talk through what you’re looking for, and if it points beyond what we offer, we can recommend a partner center from our community. Our partners are centers we work with professionally, and we receive no compensation from them for these recommendations.
Your wellbeIng comes first
Mountain Wind Safety and Standards Guarantee
Your safety is the foundation of every journey we guide. Before you ever arrive, we take the time to get to know you: your intentions, your health, and any medications you take. Each retreat is prepared with care rather than assumed. We arrange your transport, lodging, food, and medicines ourselves, so you are accompanied and supported from the moment you arrive until the moment you leave. Here is what you can expect from us.
Professional Staff
Every Mountain Wind retreat is guided by experienced facilitators who understand the traditions, the plants, and the people they serve. Our team handles the details of your journey, from transport and lodging to food and ceremony preparation, so you can stay focused on your experience. From your first conversation through your final day, you will be accompanied by people who take your wellbeing as seriously as we do.
Rigorous Screening
Every participant begins with a personal onboarding interview by video call, where we talk through your reasons for joining, your interest in the medicine, and any medications you take. This conversation lets us prepare each retreat around the people in it and give you honest guidance on dietary preparation and on speaking with your physician before changing any medication. Nothing is rushed, and no one is accepted without first being heard.
Integration Support
The experience does not end when the retreat does, and how you carry it back into daily life matters as much as the ceremonies themselves. We encourage you to reflect on what came up, take your time returning to your routines, and stay in touch with us as you process your journey. When you are ready for deeper guidance, we will be here to support you. We employ certified psychedelic integration coaches that have the experience to guide you through the process.
Your Journey Deserves Thoughtful Care
Choosing to step into this kind of experience is a meaningful decision, and you should feel safe and supported every step of the way. At Mountain Wind, we listen first, prepare carefully, and stay with you from your first conversation to your return home. We are here to answer your questions, honor your intentions, and guide you with the respect this work deserves, so you can arrive with trust and leave with clarity.

How does booking work?
Booking starts with a free consultation, usually by video call on WhatsApp or Telegram, where we talk through your intentions, health, and medications. You then complete our intake form and reserve your space with a 50% deposit. The deposit is non-refundable, but with enough notice, or in an emergency, it can be moved to a future retreat.
How do you screen participants for safety?
Every participant has a personal onboarding interview before booking, where we ask about your reasons for joining, your health, and any medications you take. Some conditions and medications make Huachuma, Ayahuasca, or Kambo unsafe, and if a medicine isn’t right for you, we’ll tell you honestly. Please don’t stop or change any medication without speaking to your physician first.

Raymi Retreats are limited to 9 guests, and The Serpent & The Condor is limited to 6. Small groups give every guest more attention from our guides and keep the experience personal and improve sustainability.
