Ayahuasca Foundation är ett retreatcenter i Iquitos, Peru, beläget vid floden och omgivet av Amazonas stillhet. På Psje. K-18 ligger det avskilt, vilket skapar en rofylld miljö för gäster som vill lämna vardagens tempo bakom sig och vistas i en mer naturlig och eftertänksam omgivning.
Besökare beskriver platsen som rustik men bekväm, med enkel och hälsosam mat, vänlig personal samt facilitatorer som upplevs som kunniga, omtänksamma och närvarande. Helheten tycks kretsa kring varsamt helande arbete, där det finns utrymme för vila, reflektion och tid att koppla bort. Möjlighet till bad finns direkt i floden, och det avlägsna läget förstärker känslan av att verkligen vara på retreat.
De praktiska förutsättningarna är en del av upplevelsen här: det finns ingen elektricitet utöver solpaneler, och varken internet eller vanlig telefonservice, förutom en satellittelefon för nödsituationer. Centret har öppet dagligen från 07:00 till 20:00, vilket gör det väl lämpat för längre vistelser med fokus på stillhet, fördjupning och personligt arbete.

The Kesten Rono Plant Medicine School features a mini village in a remote part of the rainforest, consisting of small collections of huts spread over a cleared expanse of jungle terrain. Every student is assigned a tambo, or jungle hut, on the property. These huts and the other buildings like the dining room, vapor bath hut, and ceremony maloca, come together to form a peaceful little village for the students, surrounded by the energies of the plants. The student huts provide the basics in accommodations, a bed, a hammock, a desk, and a closet. Each hut also has a bathroom with running water. The simplicity of the rooms resembles an authentic indigenous hut, with some added improvements in comfort.

This location has tremendous energy due to the quality and integrity of plant dietas being done here by students of the Noya Rao tradition. It is more rustic than the our other center, but you will feel an amazing connection with the plants instantly upon arrival. Kesten Rono is a place for deep immersion into the world of spirit plant healing. Students quickly recognize that the school and the entire experience during courses is authentic to the indigenous tradition being taught. This is as real a place as it gets.
