San Pedro
San Pedro Retreats in
the Sacred Valley of Peru
San Pedro Sanctuary is an intimate healing and ceremonial sanctuary offering San Pedro Retreats and Couples Intensives in the Sacred Valley of Peru.
Nestled by flowing rivers, wild forests, sacred mountains, ancient trees and abundant orchards, the sanctuary rests within a serene and nurturing landscape.
Here, we hold a safe and supportive space for healing, transformation and deeper connection — welcoming individuals and couples who feel called to this work with presence, attunement, and care.
SAN PEDRO RETREAT
Our retreats offer an immersion with the medicine of San Pedro, held within an intentional and supportive container for healing, clearing and meaningful transformation.
At the heart of each retreat are ceremonies that invite you into relationship with the wisdom of San Pedro and realms beyond the ordinary. This invites you to release old patterns that no longer serve you, and come into alignment with your deeper essence and life path.
The rhythm of the retreat is spacious by design, allowing time for rest, integration, and connection — opening a pathway into greater awareness, and the gentle weaving of insight into lived experience.
Retreats range from 7 to 21 days: choose the length that best supports your process. Details around timing and availability are shared by inquiry below.
SAN PEDRO DIETA
A dieta with San Pedro is a deeply immersive process, held within a sacred and structured container created to deepen your relationship with the medicine and support a profound process of inner transformation.
Through intentional dietary protocols, extended solitude and conscious withdrawal from external stimuli, the dieta creates space for the plant to cleanse and recalibrate the physical, emotional, mental and energetic bodies. It is a process of presence, purification and alignment—one that opens the way for deep healing, soul-stirring breakthroughs and life-altering shifts.
This path asks for genuine commitment, adequate preparation, and ample space for post-dieta integration to honor the depth of what unfolds.
Dietas range from 7 to 21 days: choose the length that best supports your process. Details around timing and availability are shared by inquiry below.
SAN PEDRO CEREMONY
Individual San Pedro Ceremonies are offered as one-day journeys within the sanctuary, designed to support healing and transformation. Each ceremony is held with care and guided presence, allowing the work to unfold in a natural, attuned and supportive way.
Comfortable accommodation can be provided in connection with individual ceremonies, offering space for rest and integration afterward. Ceremonies are regularly held and may also be arranged by request — reach out below for further details.
The Land & Accommodation
San Pedro Sanctuary is nestled in a secluded valley, surrounded by mountains, forests, and rivers. The land offers a sense of ease and aliveness — lush gardens and forest paths create simple, quiet places to rest, reflect, and come back into connection.
Each part of the sanctuary has been tended with care to support your journey. Gentle trails follow the river and wind through groves of native trees, flowering gardens, and fruiting orchards, while hammocks and resting spaces invite you to pause and breathe. Cozy cabins and intimate gathering areas are woven into the landscape, allowing nature to hold and nourish you throughout your stay.
Here, simplicity meets depth — an invitation to slow down, listen deeply, and return to the rhythm of the earth.
Nourishment
At San Pedro Sanctuary, nourishment is approached as an extension of the healing process. All meals are prepared by our Gourmet Sanctuary Chef, using fresh, seasonal, organic produce grown and harvested from the land or sourced from local organic farmers. All meals are included throughout your stay, thoughtfully adapted around ceremony days. We cater to a range of dietary needs, including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free.
CEREMONY GUIDES
Rayan
Rayan’s work is devoted to the healing and transformation of individuals and couples through a holistic, soul-oriented approach to ceremony and relational work.
His path has been profoundly shaped by near-death thresholds, spiritual awakenings, and transformative life initiations that revealed a deeper intelligence at work in the unfolding of life. These experiences, together with years of training and apprenticeship, have informed a deeply attuned, compassionate, and intuitive approach to healing.
His work weaves ceremonial guidance with San Pedro, therapeutic insight, and the wisdom that emerges through direct experience with the medicine and the transpersonal dimensions of healing.
Jenae
Jenae’s work is devoted to supporting individuals and couples through processes of healing, self-discovery, and relational transformation.
Guided by a profound inner calling, her path led her to close her 15-year practice as a Psychotherapist in the US and relocate to Peru, where she opened to the teachings of master plants in the jungle and later continued her ceremonial work with San Pedro in the Sacred Valley under the guidance of elder teacher Sue Lewarne.
Her approach weaves therapeutic insight with transpersonal dimensions of healing, offering a grounded and compassionate space for emotional healing and meaningful transformation. Alongside her ceremonial work, she brings a strong foundation in couples therapy, supporting couples in exploring the patterns that shape their relationship, deepening communication, and cultivating loving connection with care and presence.
Integration
Integration honors the depth and complexity of these sacred medicine journeys by supporting the gradual weaving of insights and revelations into the fabric of our everyday life. It is the meeting point between the extraordinary and the ordinary—where what is revealed in ceremony begins to shape how we relate, make choices, and live.
At San Pedro Sanctuary, integration is approached as ongoing, personalized work that extends well beyond the ceremonial space. Through therapeutic guidance, and carefully tailored support rooted in years of experience, individuals are invited to ground their experiences into daily life—allowing the medicine to continue unfolding in steady, embodied, and meaningful ways long after they return home.
Integration can include support around emotional processing, relationships, and life direction, helping insights translate into grounded, meaningful change.
The Medicine
of San Pedro
Plant Medicine work carries with it an inherent sense of awe and wonder.
The invitation to work with sacred plants is an invitation to step beyond the comforts and confines of modern life and enter a doorway into non-ordinary states of consciousness — awakening to the deeper dimensions of life. Words often fall short of capturing the nature of these journeys; they are experiences meant to be felt, especially for those who feel the call to Peru and the ancient medicine held within its mountains, rivers and sacred plants.
In the plant medicine world, San Pedro carries a distinct presence as a medicine of the heart — one that gently dissolves the surface layers of ego and opens the heart to the soul’s deeper currents. In ceremony, it can invite emotional release, healing trauma, a return to inner harmony, and a felt sense of realignment with your essence as a human being. Its presence is grounding yet expansive, guiding us into intimate contact with the transpersonal mysteries that dwell both within and around us.
Couples Intensive
The Couples Intensive is an immersive process for partners at a crossroads — whether you’re facing ongoing conflict, disconnection, or a desire to rebuild the foundation of your relationship. Through focused couples work and intentional ceremonial experiences with San Pedro, this intensive offers the space, depth, and guidance needed to repair, reconnect, and move forward with greater clarity.
