Payment Details & Costs

After reviewing your application, we will be in touch via email to arrange a 45-minute discovery call. This conversation offers an opportunity for us to get to know one another, explore your intentions and questions, and mutually discern whether a sacred medicine retreat together is the right fit for all involved. In the spirit of Ayni—sacred reciprocity—the investment for a 5-Day Retreat is $1,800–$2,000 USD, depending on the nature of the retreat, and does not include accommodation. Upon acceptance into the retreat, we ask that you secure your dates by submitting a non-refundable deposit of 50% of the total retreat investment via WISE Transfer (plus any applicable transfer fees). The remaining balance is due prior to the start of your retreat and may also be paid by WISE transfer. If you have any questions about the application process, payment, or the next steps, please don't hesitate to contact us at contact@ahealingbridge.com. We are happy to support you.
We have two options for the retreat, depending on whether you would like to include a pilgrimage to a sacred site with our Q'ero elders. If you choose this option, you will receive a Haywarikuy (Despacho offering to Pachamama) and also a coca leaf reading.
