RETREAT

YOGA & PLANT SPIRIT INITIATION

November 14-19th 2026 | AmaTierra Costa Rica | co-ed retreat

A special retreat…

This retreat is for going inward and learning about yourself with the help of a plant ally. This will be a full reset and rest for your mind, body and spirit.

On this retreat we will work deeply with the plant Passionflower, doing daily yoga, meditation, energy healing and shamanic practices for personal healing, insight and to awaken our own magic and power.

This retreat will deepen your intuition and psychic abilities, soothe your nervous system, clear your energy field and connect you with magic and the imaginal realms, all while grounding you into nature and the wisdom of the earth.

The plants and natural world are powerful healers and teachers. During this retreat you will learn how to communicate with plants and deepen your connection to the natural world.

You are not separate from nature and it is your inborn ability to communicate to plants and nature and receive love, healing and inspiration from them.

During this retreat we will be initiated by the plant Passionflower. To be initiated by a plant is a process that teaches you how to be a true earth steward. We will alchemize energies that don’t serve your truth and integrity and you will receive insight into how to be in deeper alignment with your highest self. The plants, just like the path of yoga, help peel away layers of falsity and reveal who you really are, your magnificence, your gifts and your light.

“A plant spirit initiation is an opportunity to work deeply with a plant or tree, where we not only receive personal healing but also become bonded with the particular plant and receive the plant’s healing gifts, which we can then apply in our work with ourselves, others or the planet. This form of intimate sharing with a plant allows for us to receive guidance on many issues, open doors of perception, undergo healing on all levels and expand our consciousness.” -Pam Montgomery

Our plant: Passionflower

Passionflower is a powerful nervous system herb. It eases tension in body and spirit, connects you with your inner mystic and helps you surrender to what’s not in service to your highest good. Passionflower cleanses the mind and spirit, offering renewal and hope. It is a plant ally that promotes peace of mind and deep sleep, a powerful antidote to our overstimulated, overworked bodies.

This retreat is for you if:

🌿 you are ready to step into a truer, brighter version of yourself

🌿 you desire to connect more deeply with nature

🌿 you want to deepen your intuition and psychic abilities

🌿 you need a nervous system reset and deep rest

🌿 you want to awaken to your magic and live into your fullest potential

RETREAT DETAILS & WHAT TO EXPECT

Basic daily schedule: morning yoga & meditation, breakfast, first drink of the day with Passionflower + initiation practice, lunch, second drink with Passionflower + initiation practice, dinner, third drink with Passionflower, bed- (each day will vary slightly with our plant initiation practices. The fourth day is an integration day with yoga in the morning and a waterfall excursion.)

Food & preparation: Traditionally plant spirit initiations are done with fasting. This will not be required on this retreat but you do have the option to fast if you feel called. Three vibrant and nourishing meals will be served daily with the intention to support our spiritual work with Passionflower. Why fasting is often involved in plant initiations is that it sharpens your mind and clears space to both detox what is not serving you and allow you to tune more deeply into the spiritual and subtle energies of the plants. Prior to arriving I highly recommend reducing or eliminating caffeine, sugar and processed foods (and any other mind altering substances like alcohol, tobacco or THC). The intention of this retreat is to be open to deep healing, clearing and reset. The more you invest in the process the more that will come through.
