[Intention: Overcome PTSD, depression, and anxiety]
Here is a review from a review skeptic:
RUN!! Do not walk, run TO a Sayulita Wellness Center retreat as fast as you can.
My life, my heart and my soul are forever changed, happier, and healthier as a result.
I cannot adequately express how loved, cared for, supported, informed and healed I felt before, during, and still after by this amazing group of people. Their hearts are bigger than life. Their desire and passion to serve, heal and nurture was like nothing I have ever experienced. True service above self. The joy they emanate and the joy they purposefully share is palpable and contagious. Their willingness to open their hearts to heal me and our whole group was unexpected and shocking, in the best ways. I will forever be in gratitude for each and every one of them.
Denis and Norma are angels. They cooked us delicious meals that paired perfectly with our activities and needs. They loved all over us, every minute, every day. They made us presents!, made sure to make delicious cakes to celebrate one of our birthdays, and constantly looked for ways to make our experience more comfortable and wonderful. During the psilocybin ceremony they tended to each of our needs and made sure we knew we were loved and safe. It was incredible how they were always close by and looking to help. I cannot say enough about how amazing Denis and Norma are.
Keeley and Pedro, the psychotherapists, did more for me in the 2 sessions that I had separately with each of them (4 total in 8 days) than I accomplished in decades of on/off therapy. I could not articulate what I wanted out of this experience, except that I wanted to be free of depression and anxiety, feel whole and be able to share the outrageous amounts of love in my heart. They helped me get to the root of my challenges and what was in the way. They helped me set intentions for the ceremony so I could process and let go of my pain, that I had been holding in my heart for 50 years, so I could let the love in and out. It was life changing. Even after the retreat, they continue to support me to keep building and integrating my new, beautiful life going forward. They are so different from one another and they compliment each other so well. I felt heard for the first time in my life. They each saw me, my heart, my traumas, and wanted to truly help me feel whole. They are incredible.
Nirvana and Charly are true healers. They are love. They are givers. They are everything. They changed my life by showing me that giving all you have to others, even strangers initially, is the only way to live. Their willingness to share their: Lives, culture, knowledge, gifts, challenges, and successes was so genuine. They gave us the relationships they built with others who cared for us and served us so beautifully. They changed my life in every possible positive way.
From the first moment I signed up to this second now writing this review, they are with you in person and spirit. Always available and ready to help you on your journey.
Do it!! Surrender to it all!
You will be so glad you did!
Namaste 🙏
[Intention: Find self love, acceptance, and direction]
Man it was the best experience of my life. To say it was amazing would be an understatement. It was life changing, it was exactly what I needed at that exact point in my life. It has showed me a way and I feel determined to follow it. I was lost and now I am found. This experience really helped my vision of what I want my life to be like. Happy and full of love and forgiveness! Truly grateful for everyone involved.
I would love to return one day for another journey! Loved every minute of it!! Thank you so so so much!
[Intention: Get back in control of my life, heal bipolar disorder, fatigue, depression, and anxiety]
“Before taking the program things were pretty bad like one of the lowest points in my life, as a successful as i’ve been in business my mental health gone. I was not having energy, having headaches all the time, having a hard time managing my stress and emotions.
After the experience I have a lot more peace and calm in my personal life and just feel happier overall. The program primes you to you understand yourself and make better decisions based off your core values.
It’s one of the best investments i’ve ever made.It’s kept me stabilized, focused and clear on my goals in life.
If you’re considering it I would say just go ahead and invest in yourself now”
[Intention: Overcome treatment resistant depression]
“First off I have to say I’m a natural sceptic…but I’ve kind of thrown the kitchen sink at my mental health…therapy, meds, disassociation, alcohol. I was at a point where I had done everything I could think to do. I believe this is the point when you should try plant medicine.
The onboarding was great..everyone felt really warm and supportive. I’m always kind of worried I won’t fit in.
We had a lot of opportunities to learn about the medicine and unpacked a lot with the guides before the ceremony. I honestly think I got just as much from the 1-1 and group training as I did with the medicine. The mushrooms were pretty eye opening…I saw my path laid in front of me, confronted relationships with my family and relationships from my past. Some of it was difficult but I felt really connected to myself so it just kind of melted. After the mushroom the Bufu took me to the next level. I honestly wasn’t expecting much from it.. I was there mainly for the mushroom ceremony, but Jesus Christ…I have never felt so alive..I experienced what I would call a transcendent awakening..where I saw the pieces of myself come back together. It was really special. I feel forever grateful for the practitioners for holding a safe and supportive space.. they were really easy to talk to and accessible when I needed them. Overall and my mental health is at one the best places its been and I thank Sayulita Wellness Retreat for this. 5/5 stars…I will be back.”
[Intention: Overcome anxiety, depression, PTSD]
“Coming to Sayulita Wellness Retreat was a major leap of faith for me because I was very skeptical and distrustful about this alternative therapy model; but I knew I needed help! I am very successful professionally but I had lots of anxiety & depression in my life and I was stuck in my head.
I had been researching plant medicine assisted-therapy centers all over -Amsterdam, Jamaica, Mexico and the USA; but none seemed right. I had found another center in Sayulita, Mexico; and even attended a zoom call which was great, but something did not feel right.
Somehow, I kept coming back to SWC so, one night before I went to bed, I reached out. To my surprise, I got a text within 5 minutes! I was stunned but very anxious, so I deferred to the next day. When I spoke with Andrew the next day, I made it known that trust was fundamental to me and that it all seemed too good to be true! He was very patient and put me at ease right away by answering all of my questions very calmly. He even connected me with other alumni clients. I waited a few days and devoured all the information on their web site. Although my mind was giving me all kinds of warnings, SWC felt right! So, I took the plunge and I booked myself for the next retreat.
Wow! This was the best gift I have ever given to myself! I have undergone a fundamental shift of mindset & attitude and set on a journey of self-discovery & joy. Truly transformational!
SWC is truly unique! The holistic program helped me gradually condition my mind, body & soul to undergo this mystical spiritual experience. The camaraderie, love, sharing and 1:1 session with Andrew opened my mind and eased my anxiety; the nutrition, exercise, yoga and massage therapy plus beautiful ocean conditioned my body for the ceremonies. The magical plant medicines together with the love, care, guidance and mystical connection I experienced with Nirvana & Charly before, during and after the ceremonies were transcendental.
I am forever grateful to Andrew, Nirvana, Charly, our amazing Chef -Omar, our talented yoga instructor – Nikki, our magical hypnotherapist -Andrea and our wise sound therapist -Victor for this gift of life. I have tapped into an everlasting source of energy & love that has launched me into another dimension of living. I can’t wait to go back soon!”
