A Transformational Journey: The Amazon Rainforest and Machu Picchu
“Step into the heart of the Amazon Rainforest, where nature pulses with life and the spirit of the rainforest will guide us as we connect with her energies. Here, the ancient wisdom of plant medicines is ready to take you on an incredible journey. Time slows down in this magical place, and the deep, sacred energy of the earth becomes palpable.
During our three days at the healing center, you will have the opportunity to drink ayahuasca, a plant medicine revered for centuries by indigenous healers. Under the watchful eyes of skilled shamans, this sacred brew will guide you into the depths of your soul, revealing past traumas and heavy energies that you’ve been carrying. With each ceremony, you'll peel back layers, gaining profound insights, understanding, and the ability to release what no longer serves you.
As the rainforest opens its arms to us, you will find not only healing but also a deep sense of belonging and connection to the earth. But the journey doesn’t end there.
From the rainforest, we will travel to a tranquil retreat center At the foothills of the Andean mountains, where the sacred cactus San Pedro awaits. San Pedro brings its own gifts—gentle yet profound. With this medicine, you’ll experience a deep opening of the heart, allowing you to see the world and yourself through a new lens of compassion and clarity. And then, the crown jewel of the journey: Machu Picchu. This ancient Incan citadel, perched high in the Andes, emanates a powerful, mystical energy that has drawn seekers from around the world for centuries. As we walk among the ruins, feeling the majesty of this sacred site, you will experience a sense of timelessness—an awakening to the vastness of the universe and your place within it.
This retreat is not just a journey to beautiful places. It is a journey into your own soul, a chance to understand the traumas and energies you carry, and a sacred invitation to release them, so you may step forward into a lighter, more empowered version of yourself.
Are you ready to immerse yourself in this transformative experience, to connect with the earth, the plants, and your own inner healing?

The plant shows us where we hold our negativity in our bodies, where it came from, and then reveals what we can learn from those experiences. Once we understand, we release the negativity in our bodies, feeling clean and light afterward. When we reflect on those experiences later, we can give thanks for the lessons we've learned. It teaches us that no experience is a bad experience if we learn from it.
In the same way, it shows us our thought patterns and teaches us that our mindset significantly impacts our well-being. By recognizing and transforming our thoughts into positive ones, we can foster a healthier mind and body. This holistic approach has led to remarkable outcomes for many, enhancing their overall sense of well-being. The plant reminds us that we are all children of the Light, precious and special.

TESTIMONIALS
Hear What Our Clients Say
“I started seeing Vesna about six months ago. At that time I was struggling to make it from one day to another due to unresolved pain and guilt over my dad‘s passing. It manifested in my life as anger that almost ended up destroying all of the relationships I had in my life including my husband, my son and my loved ones.
Vesna has been amazing through the entire process. She has put things in perspective for me and at times only just listened to what I had to say. I truly can say that she was a lifesaver. As life has it other things resurface that need to be worked on but I’m fully confident she can help me get through them. If there is something in your life that is bothering you and that you need to get off of your chest, give Vesna a call.
She truly is an amazing and compassionate listener. Her place is a judgment free zone that brings you peace and serenity. If you are waiting for a sign to start working on yourself let this review be it!”
I want to begin this conversation by thanking you for giving me the gift of seeing things simply for what they were. Prior to our session, I was feeling completely overwhelmed about the transition of returning to life with a career. You helped me to realize that my self-doubt could sabotage my reality and that I had to create the future I wanted with positive affirmations not negative thoughts.
Even better you allowed me to see all the wonderful possibilities I could bring to my children which I hadn’t even considered. I am truly grateful for the illumination you brought to this situation and allowing me to meet the change with confidence and a new perspective. I am now happily searching for a job and know that when the time comes I will embrace the change. Thank you for guiding me to remove the fear of returning to work and inspiring me to see the value within myself. All my love.
I checked into a rehab facility for meth addiction in Scottsdale AZ. There I was assigned Vesna Matic as my counselor. I was very intrigued by her calmness and patience during group sessions. Her classes were different from all the others, which revolved around spirituality and universal connections. This excited me since I was already very aware of the changing patterns of the stars but didn’t know how exactly they were affecting me personally. My favorite topic was when Vesna spoke about the new moon and how it might make one feel. I immediately was made aware of my own feelings through meditation in groups and one on one with Vesna.
Vesna has helped me reach childhood traumas that I had repressed for most of my life. She made me realize that I have never actually grieved these events. I continue to see Vesna weekly through WhatsApp since I am working in Hawaii. I am grateful to God to have met Vesna and know the universe has placed her in my life. I continue to grieve with the assurance that Vesna is just a phone call away. She has definitely helped soften the healing process and has become one of my most important friends in my life. Thank You Vesna,
