The Retreat Experience

A Spacious Environment for Reflection and Renewal

Casa de Vida Nueva offers thoughtfully structured retreats designed to support rest, reflection, and personal discernment. Our retreats provide space — not prescriptions — and are held in a calm, nature-immersed setting that allows each guest to engage at their own pace.

We do not promise outcomes, define experiences, or direct personal processes. What unfolds is personal, individual, and shaped by each guest’s own intentions and readiness.

What to Expect

Each retreat follows a gentle rhythm rather than a rigid schedule. Days are intentionally unhurried and may include:

  • Quiet mornings and personal reflection

  • Time in nature

  • Optional group conversation or prayer (only if requested)

  • Shared meals and unstructured rest

  • Space for journaling, contemplation, or solitude

Activities are invitational and vary by retreat and location. Guests are free to participate as much or as little as they choose, or simply rest.

General Flow Overview

While no two retreats are identical, most follow a natural progression:

  • Arrival & Settling in Time to arrive, orient, and decompress into the environment.

  • AM Micro-Bufo

  • Late Morning Kambo

  • Afternoon Full-Bufo

  • Evening Meal

  • Integration (Optional Samadhi ceremony on day 5)

  • Rest & Integration Spacious days that allow experiences to settle naturally without pressure.

  • Closing & Transition Gentle closing conversations or optional prayer before returning home.

Specific activities are discussed privately after acceptance and are always optional.

Ongoing Reflection

Guests are encouraged to reflect on their experience in ways that feel meaningful to them.

Who This Experience is For

For Those Ready for Real Change

Our retreats emphasize personal responsibility, autonomy, and respect. Participation is always voluntary. Guests are encouraged to listen to their own needs and to engage only in ways that feel appropriate for them.

Casa de Vida Nueva is not a medical, therapeutic, or clinical program and does not replace professional healthcare. We offer space, presence, and hospitality — not treatment or direction.

A Note on Freedom

Nothing is forced. Nothing is rushed.
Your comfort sets the pace.

Casa de Vida Nueva is a discernment-based retreat ministry and may not be the right fit for everyone — and that is respected.

Those seeking space for reflection and discernment

Individuals longing for rest, clarity, or renewal

Guests who value a gentle, non-imposing environment

Those open to optional spiritual conversation without pressure

People who appreciate nature, quiet, and simplicity

You are welcome exactly as you are.
