"I was able to speak to Siddiq and the facilitator Elena before the session and had all my doubts resolved. The session itself is in a tranquil location and I felt very looked after and there has been good communication following and a lot of resources provided for integration. Would highly recommend! "

"Siddiq is extremely well read and offered me, prior to our session, a very useful & helpful collection of esources to both approach the psilocybin trip, integrate it, as well as processing trauma.
But more importantly Siddiq is calm, warm, and grounded. Throughout my stay with Mycosomatic Magic, as well as during the actual trip, I felt that Siddiq was able to assume the role of leader and guide without being condescending or forcing any beliefs or interpretations on me. I always felt that he cared about me as a human, so to speak, and had a basic instinct of respect (in the good meaning of that word).
Siddiq's calm and grounding was also a beneficial resource during the trip itself. When I expressed certain emotions Siddiq did not tighten up or feel uncomfortable with them, but stayed with me fully and just said "let the mushrooms guide you"."
"The setting and atmosphere that Mycosomatic Magic hosted me in was really well tuned for a psychedelic experience; a small rustic communal farm/living space in the hills of northern Spain. Far enough from the road, and enough in nature, to feel the ability to express oneself. Siddiq and Peyton made me feel comfortable and we had a really good talk prior to the session where the reason for the experience, past experiences, and so forth were discussed in more detail. The trip itself was also well handled by my guide, Siddiq, and he was dynamic and attentive and able to adjust the process based on what was going on. "
"This experience has changed my life. It allows you to go to places in your mind that have locked away pain that is still bleeding into you. Then you can address place and stop the bleeding.. Beautiful beautiful experience…
I will return.."
"My dad and I attended the May retreat and from day 1 we felt so welcome, Ilse and Danilo created such a safe, open environment for everyone.
We started the retreat with Kambo and were guided through the process 1 step at a time.
When we had our Ayahuasca sessions, Ilse and Danilo really supported all of our individual needs and experiences. Their home is absolutely stunning and the music they play during the sessions really enhances the trip.
We felt so lucky to be surrounded by beautiful nature and people throughout this retreat.
There were several areas where you could relax and reflect which made it easier when processing thoughts from the night before.
To anyone wanting to experience enlightenment in a safe space with the right people, I couldn’t recommend From Gaia For You enough.
I will definitely rebook at some point in the future when I feel I need to have a reset.
Thank you so much Ilse and Danilo, you’ve truly changed our lives!

"I shared my experience with Elena in the beautiful El Gastor. I had no idea what to expect, but the beautiful surroundings helped me to relax and welcome the unknown. Then I met wonderful Elena and my worries disappeared. She was amazing at preparing me for the session. Now afterword I understand how important setting intentions was. I didn't have clear expectations, but rather a willingness to discover what I needed the most. And I got to do that! What a journey - full of laughter and crying. Elena was by my side the whole time, supporting me in all the situations. She also was amazing at playing instruments I've never seen in my life :) Thank you Elena for this amazing day, and for all the discussions, wise thoughts, laughter, open-mindedness, and tasty mushrooms :) Say hello to Cosmos!"
"A really well thought out coaching programme and retreat!
Such a gorgeous location to relax and feel safe to explore your feelings while being nurtured with the most delicious food, people and surroundings.
Marion and Suzanne were incredible hosts and facilitators who are obviously very good therapists too. James was amazing at the shadow work workshop and Sebastian has to be one of the most incredible musicians that I've ever heard. To have a live musician who is in tune to your personal journey and process, makes the whole mushroom experience so much more powerful and magical.
Every detail was thought out well and the fact that they concentrate on having a small group, allows you to feel safe and nurtured at all times.
I will definitely be going again! Couldn't recomend highly enough."
"How to put into words Marc, Alex and Vera (as well as all the other incredible, and welcoming humans who have hosted me).
I have returned twice, (which says a lot 🙏🏼😊). I went in March ‘23 and more recently in November. There is a home-like feel to the people and the place like no other.
The experience is always unique, to yourself and everyone else but there is a calmness and safety to the entire experience. I had experienced plant medicine in South America, and I found my time in Tenerife as such a special experience, one of connection, love, humour, self reflection, breakthroughs, understanding. But the main part is how it’s facilitated- that’s different, on each of my occasions, you really do leave as family (as cliche as that sounds!) I’ve never know a retreat to facilitate it so well. It holds a special place to me and I whole heartedly recommend this to anyone who is considering doing plant medicines for the first time, as it’s such a calming and safe environment.
Thank you all again, till the next time!
Kelli 🙏🏼"
"I understand now Mother Ayahuasca always gives you what you need. The manner in which you come to her is the manner in which you get your answer. So present to her with respect and admiration with gratitude and that's what you'll get. There are no mistakes. "
"Everything exceeded my expectations: the location, the food, the warmth of Gloria and Emma, the workshops, ... This is how life should be: late night talks and singing together at the fireplace. The psychadelic ceremony was magical and I feelt truly relaxed for the first time after years of batteling severe anxiety. I recommend it if you want to get to know yourself better and spend time with wonderful humans. "
"Absolutely Amazing - Danilo and Ilse are such loving, caring, guiding and full of compassion and wise words and advices. The entire experience was amazing - from sessions, reviling, singing and awakening your inner deep. They are fantastic musicians and great voice - the one of Ilse is like an Angel singing. Their house is great surrounded by various citrus trees, avocados, garden with vegs a cold stream and woods.
I am very grateful for it all and will be back again for sure. They became my family. Highly recommend."
"I came into this experience with a specific aspect of my life I was hoping to gain insight into — Ayahuasca delivered what I was looking for and so much more. The ceremonies were transformative and we gained a strong bond with the people who shared this journey. This is a place where you can be truly yourself without the fear of being judged. It was the most amazing and strange experience at the same time, to go through such profound happiness and joy, as well as fear and panic, it is so hard to explain. The healing and love I received will forever be in my heart. This journey opened my heart and mind to new possibilities and a better future filled with love and hope. This place and these people are absolutely amazing. I cannot express enough gratitude to the facilitators, Ariana and Colin as well as Dean, Cellene, Sergio and Sally. I felt deeply cared for and supported throughout my experience and I am unbelievably thankful. I will be back again for sure, as the journey has just began for me."
"The integration space Jo holds is incredibly powerful. She challenged me to go deeper and deeper within the medicine process of the week, exactly what I needed.
It would be a lot easier to hold a more passive sharing circle like a lot of retreats do but I feel what sets Ayayni apart is the unconditional truth that is shared by Jo and the other facilitators."
"There is no way to describe how humbling, loving and life changing an experience it was. From the facilitators loving energy and sharp intuitions, to the structure, group therapy and beautiful settings plus the fantastic people I met there has made for a weekend I will never forget.
The level of therapeutic work done in one weekend is nothing short of amazing. I cannot recommend it any higher."
"The most incredible voice I have ever heard. Her music to guide us through the ceremonies was incredible and on the night off she put on a concert for us, she went above and beyond the whole retreat."
"There is not a ratings system in place that would do Ayayni justice. The energy throughout the retreat was truly magical. From the moment of arrival, guests are treated with love, honesty and truth. The team are incredibly open and supportive, each bringing their own special gifts to the otherworldly proceedings. There is a deep respect and understanding amongst the facilitators for each and every process, each and every individual.
There is humor, there is sadness, there is trauma, grief, reflection and empathy. The scale of emotions experienced throughout the retreat is nothing short of spellbinding. Each emotion accepted, nurtured and facilitated by the fantastic team.
Breakfast and lunch each day is provided each day made with love (by the team) and one day we had a beautiful Paella from the restaurant down the road. Very fresh and tasty food all week. The communal meals are at a huge wooden table beside the kitchen, where conversation flows and silence is present.
The all-important integrations each morning are without doubt the best I have ever experienced. If you are open and willing to work on yourself and listen to others, Ayayni will give you a glimpse into what is achievable... if you hold the mirror up and honestly look at your reflection, and that of others.
The breath-work and fire ceremony are both invigorating and reflective, allowing each person a chance to open wide before the beginning of ceremony.
Every participant is naturally guided toward their healing path, and by the time the end arrives, there is not one who is leaving without a more intuitive understanding of their self. If you are looking for a place without judgement; a place to connect with yourself and others. If you are open to the possibility of change and the often difficult path that leads to it, I highly recommend Ayayni, a unique and extraordinary experience."
"The deepest and most profound experience of my life. Invaluable! Will return. Alex, Vera and Marc took great care of me. I feel very grateful "
"I am so deeply grateful to have experienced a retreat with Ayayni. I can’t thank the team enough for facilitating such a loving and compassionate environment where I could allow myself to be at my most vulnerable whilst still feeling completely safe and understood. The experience was truly life changing and I look forward to continuing my journey to healing and power in future Ayayni retreats. The whole weekend was truly magical!"
"I will hold this experience in my heart forever. Everything was great, the organisation, the ceremonies, the medicines, the breath-work, the integration, the depth of the emotional work, the music and the accomodation. There were moments of grief, pain and rage and there was also a lot of laughter. We formed a fantastic tribe over the days that we were together and I look forward to the on-going group support.
"
"This retreat was out of this world! I had many expectations about my first medicine retreat, and Ayayni completely exceeded them. The ceremonies were so harmonious, with the live guitar and percussion throughout the night and into the early hours. The medicine was deep and challenging, and yet at other times nurturing. I discovered the depths of my soul during those ceremonies, and I will be eternally grateful for Olimpia's voice, which guided me through.
The integration sessions were beyond what I imagined they would be, as Jo's intuition hit the nail on the head every time and with every participant. Uncovering so much of my hidden truth in one retreat was not what I had expected, and I know that I will be able to use these insights for years to come. I highly recommend this experience."
"I enjoyed my time with the Shamanzon family.
The facilitators were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable in what they needed to do to support everyone.
The accommodation is excellent; a beautiful, clean and comfortable house in a wonderful location with breathtaking views 😍
Delicious food, lovingly prepared, we were well fed!
This was not my first time taking Ayahuasca, but it was my first time experiencing it in mainly silence, which I found quite difficult but I plan to return and attend another retreat with the Shamanzon family.
Thank you all!

"My psilocybin journey was a deeply transformative voyage into the depths of my psyche, where I confronted aspects of myself that had long been hidden beneath the surface. As ego boundaries dissolved, I gained profound insights into my thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, laying the foundation for profound personal growth and introspection.
The guidance and support provided by Suzanne, Marion, James, and Sebastian were instrumental in guiding me through the labyrinth of the psychedelic experience. Their expertise and empathy created a nurturing environment in which I felt empowered to explore the recesses of my mind without fear or judgment. Whether offering gentle reassurance or profound insights, they demonstrated a deep understanding of the transformative power of psilocybin.
The surroundings in which my journey unfolded were nothing short of breathtaking. Surrounded by the serene beauty of the outside area and the cozy comforts of the indoor setting, every detail was meticulously curated to enhance the overall experience.
Above all, Suzanne, Marion, James, and Sebastian created an atmosphere of safety and trust that allowed me to fully surrender to the psychedelic experience. Their unwavering presence and compassionate care ensured that I felt supported and protected throughout the journey, enabling me to navigate the depths of my subconscious with courage and resilience.
In conclusion, my psilocybin journey was a profound odyssey of self-exploration and transformation, made possible by the exceptional guidance of Suzanne, Marion, James, and Sebastian, and the awe-inspiring surroundings that enveloped me. Through their collective efforts, they created a safe and nurturing space in which I could embark on a journey of inner discovery, emerging with newfound insights, clarity, and lightness."
"I participated in their 3 night retreat and was very happy to be called to that place and those people.
The communication was easy and straightforward before, during and after the retreat, also many languages were spoken - so that gave it an easy start. My accommodation was in a single room because I prefer privacy - it was nice, clean, cosy and comfortable. As a matter of fact all the facilities are so much better in real life than on the photos here! The food was plentiful and nutritious, the hosts and facilitators were caring all the time.
For me it was very important to have authentic shamans while doing the medicine, so having Taita Josè Antonio and Mamita Yolimar conduct the ceremonies and being available for discussion only made the experience more valuable and profound.
I shall definitely return and can only recommend Shamanzon, because here one can combine authenticity, deep healing and value for money.
Thank you 🙏🏻"
"I had an amazing journey with Siddiq. He hosted me with his thoughtful and caring partner Payton that cooked amazingly vegan herbal meals. Both made me safe and comfortable. I had a wonderful big room in this arty house in the mountains. The perfect landscape to connect with mushrooms. Siddiq hold the space respectfully with presence and gave me an amazing massage to relax and get into my trip. He was present all along to support whenever I had emotional moments. I highly recommend to be accompany by Siddiq !"
"I recently had the privilege of participating in a session facilitated by Siddiq, and I must say it was a truly meaningful experience. From the moment I reached out to inquire about joining a psilocybin session, Siddiq was incredibly attentive and supportive. He took the time to address all my concerns and provided invaluable materials to help me prepare for the session, including a wealth of resources like videos, podcasts, and books. These resources served as a roadmap for further exploration and reflection, both before and after the session.
Upon arriving at the retreat, Siddiq made me feel completely at ease. He listened attentively to my apprehensions and took proactive steps to ensure my comfort. The relaxation exercises we engaged in beforehand were instrumental in calming my nerves and fostering a sense of acceptance.
Throughout the session, Siddiq was a steadfast presence, guiding me through each stage of the journey with compassion and expertise. His unwavering support, whether it was holding my hand during moments of fear or offering insightful suggestions when I felt lost, was truly invaluable. Even after the effects of the mushroom had subsided, Siddiq remained by my side, helping me process and integrate the experience.
The following day, we took a rejuvenating walk in the woods, allowing me to reconnect with nature and engage in meaningful conversation. Through it all, I came to a profound realization: individuals like Siddiq are the catalysts for healing in this world. His dedication, empathy, and wisdom have left an indelible mark on me, and for that, I am deeply grateful."
"We didn't talk with words with Mamita Yolimar Loreto Robles but we did that in a telepathic way and I am so glad of the experience and conclusions which came to me during the ceremony. I loved her singing and talking about the blessings we have and how important is to be aware of this.
Listen to your inner divine self and do as you feel, because the medicine will give you all you need and not what you want ❤️❤️❤️"
"I took the medicine for the first time with Taita Jose and I am so glad for this choice, the medicine was so nice to me and I had a very inspirational experience.
I would advise for the first time not to make any expectations, just let yourself free and flow.
An important aspect I would like to share is to follow all the recommendations and restrictions before and during the ceremony.
Listen to your inner divine self and do as you feel, because the medicine will give you all you need and not what you want ❤️❤️❤️
I left with a very god advice from Taita which I am trying to apply in my daily life: do everything with passion and nothing with obligation.
"
"If you are looking for a retreat, and you arrived on this site and you read this, this is for a reason. I took the medicine for the first time with Shamanzon and I am so glad I trusted to them this experience. They gave me the sufficient amount of details and information I needed before the ceremony, during and even after, I feel free to contact them with questions because the ceremony is just the starting of a new page of your new life book.
There are no wrong or correct questions so do not hesitate to address all of them.
I would advise for the first time not to make any expectations, just let yourself free and flow.
The most important aspect is that Shamanzon brings the real and authentic shamans on their retreats and they do a good translation during the ceremony. I will definitely join again when Taita José Antonio Jansasoy and Mamita Yolimar Loreto Robles will come again to Shamanzon and I want to go there with my mother ❤️
An important aspect I would like to share is to follow all the recommendations and restrictions before and during the ceremony, this will help you to have a pleasant ceremony and less adverse events, this I am telling you as a pharmacist ☺️ I followed all the recommendations and even more, I stopped the alcohol about 5 months before, no smoking for 3 years, no coffee, no meet few days before the ceremony and in the morning I had my bin clean.
Listen to your inner divine self and do as you feel, because the medicine will give you all you need and not what you want ❤️❤️❤️"
"I recommend this retreat to anyone who is interested in trying these medicines in a safe and non-judgemental environment. I had a call with Emma and Gloria before the retreat and they were very patient in answering any questions I had. They both have an extremely calming and warm presence and are very knowledgeable in their fields. During the ceremony they were exceptionally responsive and in tune with what everybody needed in that moment and I was very impressed and appreciative of them.
The retreat itself attracted interesting women who were also drawn to reflection, self-improvement and vulnerability. I found it very rewarding to meet other people who were interested in experiencing transformative changes in their lives and felt like we had a lot of meaningful conversations. Thank you Emma and Gloria for a wonderful retreat and for all the work you do!"
"I went into this experience open minded not knowing what to expect as I had never done anything like it. All I can say is WOW I was completely mind blown. The whole hearted love and support I felt while there was out of this world! I came out a whole new women with a mind set I never thought I could achieve.
I would highly recommend to anybody looking to change their mindset or just have time to relax and reconnect.
Danilo and Ilse are the most warm welcoming and loving couple to invite you into their beautiful home in the most beautiful location. They really helped me feel connected and I am very thankful for the emotional support they gave me during my time with them. "
