Shanenawa: People of the Blue Bird Tribe Ayahuasca Retreat

This is a sacred and transformational gathering — an opportunity to immerse yourself in the ancient wisdom of the Amazon forest. Join us in Monteverde, Costa Rica, for 7 days of ceremony, purification, healing, prayer, and deep cultural immersion alongside Pajé Maná Shanenawá and his family, the People of the Blue Bird Tribe.

Pajé Maná comes from Kené Merá Village, on the banks of the Envira River in the Acre State Amazon Rainforest, Brazil. He will be joined by his wife Pey Rani Shanenawa, and Txaná Yube, representative of the traditional culture of the Kenē Merá village.

Together we will explore the sacred culture, cosmology, and spirituality of the Shanenawa people through:

• 3 all-night Uni (Ayahuasca) ceremonies with sacred fire
• Rapé (Rume Reshke) — sacred ancestral snuff
• Sananga — spiritual eye medicine
• Sacred Kene tribal body painting with Urucum
• Floral healing baths (Nisun Dawu)
• 2 indigenous workshops and cosmology teachings
• Sacred fire song circles and ancient chants
• Morning yoga or meditation on non-ceremony days
• Pre and post-ceremony integration sessions with a somatic integration specialist

Their message is simple but powerful: the wisdom of the forest can awaken us, reconnect us to our own nature, our ancestral roots, and our spirituality. This path is not a religion, it is a way of living in harmony and reverence with nature and all life.

Space is limited. All participants complete a screening and integration process with our somatic specialist Stephanie before and after ceremonies. SHAVA SHAVA.
