Ayahuasca Retreats at the Tierra Vida Healing Center

The Tierra Vida Healing Center is located on the outskirts of Pucallpa, Peru which has recently relocated to a beautiful sacred piece of land formerly owned by the renowned visionary Ayahuasca painter, Pablo Amaringo. We are genuine seekers of Truth and are devoted to the collective healing of the planet and her children. Through our retreats we aim to help raise awareness in the preservation of shamanic traditions, local indigenous cultures and the Amazon Rainforest. http://tierravidahealing.com/Welcome.html
