An 8-day Plant Medicine Retreat

Throughout this retreat, you'll be guided through three transformative plant medicine ceremonies, each one offering a sacred space to deepen your journey of self-discovery, connect with heart-centered wisdom, and experience profound healing. Begin each day with grounding meditation, followed by yoga to center the body and connect with the breath. Dharma talks woven with Buddhist insights support heart opening and invite personal transformation.

As part of a compassionate group, you'll participate in daily healing circles, where sharing, listening, and mutual support foster a strong sense of unity and belonging. The retreat’s beautiful natural setting provides opportunities for reflection, quiet walks, and grounding yourself in the earth’s healing presence, all of which enhance the integration of your experiences. Each day also includes time for personal reflection and journaling, allowing you to process and embody the insights and healing that emerge.

Our Retreats

At Lotus Vine Journeys, our retreats are thoughtfully designed to support each participant’s unique healing journey with compassion and inclusivity. Some retreats are specifically for communities of color, offering safe spaces for healing racialized trauma, while others focus on women’s unique paths. We also host retreats open to all, nurturing a spirit of unity and connection. Please know that these focused retreats are intended to meet specific needs, not to divide or exclude. We invite you to explore our offerings with mindfulness and choose the path that resonates most with you. Our goal is to create spaces where healing for one becomes healing for all.

Guided Healing with Spring Washam and Team

Each retreat at Lotus Vine Journeys is led by Spring Washam, a seasoned maestra with over a decade of experience in guiding transformative healing journeys. Spring’s path with plant medicine began with her own profound experiences in the Amazon, where she apprenticed with skilled Shipibo healers. Bringing her gifts of song, compassionate presence, and deep healing work, she creates a space of connection, insight, and trust in every ceremony. Spring is joined by a talented and dedicated team of musicians, healers, therapists, and facilitators, each team uniquely selected for each retreat to support the specific intentions and energy of the group. Together, they hold each ceremony with the utmost care and respect, creating a safe, sacred environment for all participants. This collaborative approach ensures that every retreat provides a nurturing space where deep healing and personal growth can truly flourish.
