3-Day Bufo Retreat in Portugal: Deep Healing with Non-Dual Coaching & Trauma Release

Join our 5-star rated retreat, Shangriballa!

Are you feeling ready for a profound and deeply personal journey of transformation? At Shangriballa, our Bufo Retreat Centre, we don’t just facilitate an experience; we hold a sacred space for your own awakening. We gently guide you through a holistic process that combines the immense power of 5-MeO-DMT with the wisdom of ancient teachings like non-duality and a modern, trauma-informed approach. This careful blend helps create a unique and transformative experience, where you can explore deep insights and find true healing.

Our approach is built on a foundation of care, trust, and deep understanding, which is why we’ve created a unique Three-Stage Process: Preparation, Ceremony, and Integration. This ensures you feel fully supported every step of the way, from the moment you decide to join us until long after you return home.

Preparation: We believe the true journey begins long before you arrive. Our facilitators offer personalized consultations and practices to help you set the right intentions and cultivate a receptive mindset. We also offer an optional Kambo ceremony the day before Bufo, which can be a deeply cleansing experience that helps the body and mind release old patterns, preparing you to surrender more fully.

Ceremony: In the safe hands of our trained facilitators, you’ll be part of a powerful Bufo ceremony. This is a profound opportunity to connect with your truest essence, gain deep insights into yourself and the nature of reality, and experience a monumental shift in consciousness.

Integration: The real work happens after the ceremony. We’re here to support you in weaving your insights and experiences into your daily life. Our ongoing support includes workshops, one-on-one sessions, and access to a compassionate community, ensuring your journey extends far beyond your time with us.

Our Unique, Holistic Approach
What truly sets us apart is our commitment to a holistic approach. We know that a Bufo experience is best integrated with teachings on Unity Consciousness and powerful trauma release techniques. That’s why we incorporate Somatic Experiencing (SE), a gentle, body-centered therapy that helps release trauma that can be held in the body’s nervous system.

By weaving together these wisdom traditions and therapeutic practices, Shangriballa offers a comprehensive and deeply compassionate approach. This unique combination helps minimize confusion and maximize the transformative potential of your journey, creating a path to true and lasting healing.

(Please note: For the comfort and safety of all our guests, we do not offer tent accommodation between October and March due to the possibility of heavy rains. We have beautiful indoor accommodations available to ensure your retreat is as peaceful and supportive as possible.)
