Cusco — Local services in Distrito de Cusco

did the one day Ayahuasca ceremony at the sanctuary and felt underwhelmed by my experience.

To start with there wasn't too much organisation as to the ceremony, I inquired two weeks in advance and gave a date that I wanted to do the Ayahuasca ceremony and on arrival they thought first I cancelled and second that I wanted to do Wachuma.

I prepared accordingly but during the ceremony after 1.5 cups I didn't feel anything, after another cup I still felt nothing. It was only until the maestro Guillermo gave me a 1/3rd cup of his concentrated medicine I felt something.

Even this left me only vibrating and experiencing mild effects which was a shame as I didn't get any personal experience or find any answers to what I wanted to figure out. It was quite underwhelming.

For their professional work I recommend this place because if they are really good shamans and they know how to do their job to everyone I meet. my english is not good, use a...

I found CAISAE on my recent visit to Cusco by pure chance, it seemed. I had written to another business in the Sacred Valley that offers Ayahuasca retreats, but as it seemed they had not responded to my inquiry promptly, I ended up with a reservation for an Ayahuasca retreat with CAISAE. It turns out this fluke of the internet set in motion much profound change in my life that was to come. I am convinced, in the end, it was no fluke at all (I later actually found the reply email from the first Ayahuasca inquiry in my gmail SPAM folder, promptly received but unread by me!), but the way I was called to Cusco to be born...
