Seasonal Ayahuasca

Retreats Across the U.S.

Ceremonial Healing Rooted in the Earth’s Rhythms

Serving Colorado, Michigan, New Mexico, the Midwest, and the Four Corners region

At Gaian Rhythm, we offer immersive ayahuasca retreats across the United States, each aligned with the natural turning points of the seasons—solstices, equinoxes, and cross-quarter days on the Wheel of the Year. Our ceremonies are rooted in Shipibo tradition, guided by an experienced trauma-informed team, and woven into the cycles of the earth and moon.

Gaian Rhythm retreats are currently held in Colorado, Michigan, and New Mexico, with guests joining us from across the Midwest and Four Corners region. Whether you’re called to the mountains, the forest, or the high desert, you’ll find a container of depth, integrity, and healing.

Two Ways to Walk the Path

We offer two retreat formats throughout the year, each held with equal care and intention. Both include ceremony, integration, and sacred community — the difference is in rhythm, duration, and depth of immersion.

Weekend Circles

A 3-day ceremonial retreat held during the cross-quarter days — the energetic peaks of each season. These weekends offer a powerful reset, and are often held as two back-to-back retreats to allow more people access to the medicine while keeping each circle intimate.

The Weekend Circle is designed for those who feel the call but may be navigating limited time or resources, or simply aren't ready to step away for a full week. It’s a shorter commitment, but still a deeply held space with two night ceremonies, one daytime ceremony, integration support, and the beauty of community.

A good fit for: Those seeking a powerful, focused experience within a more accessible timeframe

The Spiral Path

A 7-day immersive retreat held during the equinoxes and solstices — potent moments of transition, reflection, and realignment in the Wheel of the Year. These seasonal thresholds mark turning points in both nature and spirit, and The Spiral Path is crafted to honor that rhythm.

This retreat offers far more than ceremony alone. Alongside five deeply held ayahuasca ceremonies, you’ll participate in rituals to mark the seasonal shift, engage in guided workshops on shadow work, earth-aligned living, and esoteric study, and share in communal practices like flower baths, games, and a formal family dinner to close the arc. The week unfolds slowly and intentionally, creating space for insight, rest, and integration to arise naturally.

A good fit for: Those ready to fully immerse themselves in ceremony, education, community, and the transformative rhythm of the earth.

“Intention” - For those attending with sincere commitment while navigating limited financial resources.

“Devotion” - For those able to meet the full cost of retreat and help sustain the container.

“Reciprocity” - For those who feel called to give more and help others access this work.

Tiered Pricing: A Path for Every Circumstance

Beginging Autumn 2025 We are offering tiered pricing for all retreats as a way to honor the diversity of financial circumstances within our community, while still sustaining the depth and integrity of the work. Each tier represents a different way of contributing to the shared experience — all are valued equally.

If none of the tiers feel accessible, you're welcome to reach out. When space allows, we offer a small number of scholarship-supported spots. You may also wish to explore a Weekend Circle retreat as a more accessible entry point, while still receiving the full medicine experience.

Full details for each pricing tier are available on every individual retreat page.
