Journey Back to the My-Self – Safe Spirit Ayahuasca Retreat in Tenerife - my review
A participant in trustI had reached a point in my life where I knew I needed to pause. The world was moving fast, my daily routine was loud, but inside, I felt a quiet emptiness. I longed for clarity, connection, and a space where I could truly remember who I am.
Choosing to attend an Ayahuasca retreat with Safe Spirit in Tenerife wasn’t a spontaneous decision. It was an inner calling I had ignored for a long time — until I finally found the courage to answer it.
Arriving — On the Outside and Within
From the moment I arrived in the serene, nature-immersed retreat space in southern Tenerife, I felt something shift. I was invited to simply be. The place itself is powerful surrounded by volcanic stone, vast skies, and ocean views. Far from hotels or tourist crowds, the silence welcomed me, not empty, but full of life.
The Safe Spirit team Marc, Vera, and Alex created an atmosphere of presence, experience, and kindness from the very beginning. They didn’t present themselves as gurus, but as human beings with open hearts. Everything was thoughtfully organized without ever feeling rigid. It was clear: these are professionals working with passion and deep responsibility.
The Ceremonies — Healing, Truth, and Depth
The nightly Ayahuasca ceremonies were profoundly transformative. Each night unfolded differently , some quiet and filled with insight, others intense and challenging, some full of light and spacious awareness.
What touched me most was the loving container held by the team. They were present at all times, calm and deeply experienced in navigating emotional and physical processes. Even in the most intense moments, I never felt alone. The live music, drumming, sacred songs, and the healing silence in between created an atmosphere in which something within me could open, raw, real, honest.
I encountered suppressed parts of myself, old wounds, and also a deep inner knowing I had long forgotten. I began to see old patterns, release outdated stories, and reconnect with a more honest version of myself.
Integration — Making the Experience Last
What truly set this retreat apart was the depth of integration. After each ceremony, there was space to reflect, share, feel, and process. Whether in private talks, small groups, or shared silence, it was clear that Safe Spirit offers more than just an experience, they support real inner work.
There was no judgment, no overanalysis. Just mindful presence. We were gently invited to listen inside: What is surfacing? What needs to be remembered, released, or newly welcomed?
Community — Real Connection
I met people from across Europe, all with different backgrounds, but united in their openness. It was beautiful to witness how quickly connection can arise when masks fall away.
We shared stories, silence, tears, laughter. By the end, it felt like a temporary family — a circle of trust that continues to resonate even weeks after the retreat.
Reflection — What Remains
What has changed since the retreat is not always easy to put into words. But I feel more aligned, more clarity, more peace, and deeper trust in my path.
I can sense my boundaries better, I know more clearly what nourishes me, and I feel more courageous in living accordingly. I walk slower now, listen more to myself and others. And I know: when it’s time again to look deeper, Safe Spirit is a place I will return to.
Thank You, Safe Spirit Team 🙏
