OUR PHILOSOPHY
We believe that great health and happiness is everyone's birthright.
Modern Ancient Sanctuary is a holistic personal growth and shamanic retreat center located in South America in the Peruvian Amazon Rainforest.
We believe that a combination of modern and ancient knowledge should be available to all. We know that having the right tools, resources and guidance is essential to achieving a better life state more efficiently. We also recognize that each person is unique and therefore a one size approach won't fit all.
That's why we've created a hybrid healing and coaching retreat program framework, based on our Modern Ancient Method ™ which honors each person's path and stage of their personal growth journey. Our specially designed retreat programs support healing, self-empowerment and spiritual development.
Our modern, legal, peaceful, clean and comfortable retreat center is in the vibrant and thriving jungle town of Iquitos, Peru. Specifically, our space is built in the jungle for an authentic experience of nature, and the Amazon rainforest is home to an abundance of healing and magical plants. In addition, we operate a vegan kitchen and the opportunity to foster meaningful connections in a family environment.
FIND YOUR TRUTH
We feel that there is no philosophy or religion higher than the truth. Through our personal growth journeys, we've discovered our truth which rests on a spiritual principle of unity consciousness and service to humanity, Mother Earth and the Divine energy of unconditional love.
Our retreat programs purposefully invite you to explore your own personal truth, as well as a universal truth found within ancient medicine, wisdom and teachings.
Our dynamic approach to personal transformation, based on years of experience using sacred plant medicine within a holistic coaching framework, has been successful for our students.
We feel extremely blessed and grateful to have the opportunity to assist others on their journey home. We are honored to support the integrity and knowledge of sacred medicine through our personal development programs.
We are committed to providing a legal, safe, educational and non-linear experience that makes embracing inner enrichment a curious and lighter journey.
VISION AND VALUES
Our vision is to create a space of healing and transformation, where individuals can reconnect with their true selves and cultivate a deep sense of inner peace and wellbeing.
-
Our mission is to empower individuals to awaken to their highest potential, live authentically, and make positive contributions to the world around them.
-
We seek to facilitate a profound sense of interconnectedness and an understanding that everything in the universe is inherently interconnected and part of a larger whole. This state of consciousness is often described as a spiritual or mystical experience and is believed to lead to greater empathy, compassion, and a more harmonious way of living with others and the world around us. It can be achieved through various spiritual practices such as meditation, prayer, or sacred medicine (psychedelic) experiences.
-
We envision a world where individuals are connected to their inner wisdom, living in harmony with nature, and co-creating a more compassionate and sustainable future for all.
