7-Day - 5 MeO DMT Retreat in Portugal: Non-Dual Coaching & Trauma Release

The Neutral Witness: Healing the Inner Child
Join Patrick Boulan and the Shangriballa team from October 18th, 2027 for a powerful 7-day specialised trauma retreat in the mountains of Portugal. This cycle creates a dedicated, deeply supportive container focused on a core pillar of deep transformation: Healing the Inner Child.

Many of our adult patterns, nervous system triggers, and feelings of disconnection root back to early emotional defense mechanisms. During this week, we step out of conceptual talking therapy and enter the direct, somatic reality of those young, protective parts of yourself—holding them with precise trauma-informed care and unwavering presence.

The Experience
At Shangriballa, we hold a sacred, trauma-informed space for authentic emotional alchemy. Guided by Patrick Boulan’s non-dual inquiry alongside the experienced Shangriballa team, you’ll be met with the safety required to meet your earliest wounds. We combine somatic release, gentle emotional processing, and non-dual philosophy to help your nervous system finally recognize that the past is over and you are safe in the present.

Note: We focus strictly on trauma resolution, somatic integration, and non-dual awareness to ensure a stable, deeply grounded healing process.

Our Sanctuary
Shangriballa is designed specifically for deep inner work, rest, and complete immersion in nature.

Rest & Privacy: Thoughtfully appointed, comfortable spaces designed to give you a private, secure environment to process and rest between deep sessions.

Nourishment: Inner child and trauma work require gentle, high-vibration fuel. Our team prepares fresh, organic, locally sourced meals daily—crafted to nourish your body, calm the digestive system, and support your emotional recovery.

Nature: Nestled in mountain tranquility, the natural surroundings offer a peaceful, steady backdrop that allows your protective layers to naturally drop.

Our 3-Stage Holistic Framework
True healing happens when young emotional patterns are integrated into a mature, conscious adult presence:

Preparation: Personalised pre-retreat consultations to establish safety, set intentions, and begin opening to your internal system.

The Container: A profound, week-long immersion using somatic release, non-dual inquiry, and trauma resolution to meet, hear, and integrate early childhood core wounds.

Integration: We prioritise long-term grounding. Through individual sessions and nervous-system practices, we show you how to reparent yourself in daily life so the transformation sticks long after you leave the mountains.

Ready to meet yourself with deep compassion?
Space in this specialized container is strictly limited to ensure individualized attention and safety for every participant.
