Why Now Matters

These are challenging times to be human on this planet. The noise, disconnection, and chaos of modern life can pull us away from what truly matters—our inner peace, our purpose, and our connection to something greater.

As we enter 2026, many seek to start the new year grounded, clear, and aligned. A Xuri retreat offers exactly this: a sacred space to reconnect with yourself on all levels—physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual—and to remember what is truly needed for your inner peace and purpose.

According to research, one night of Xuri ceremony is equivalent to 30 years of traditional therapy—a profound opportunity for deep transformation and healing as you walk your path in 2026.

This is where the medicine can help. This is where you can begin again.

Who We Are

The lineage of the Kuntanawa people stretches back thousands of years. Through centuries of pain and hardship—including genocide in 1911 and slavery lasting until 1988—we have worked with sacred medicines to uplift our communities and help individuals find their place in an ever-changing world.

What makes this truly unique: The Xuri medicine you will receive is personally prepared by Prince Haru and his family—grown, cultivated, and prayed with on their ancestral lands in the Amazon. This is a direct transmission of a lineage that dates back thousands of years, carried through generations with sacred intention and deep reverence.

As guardians of over 250,000 acres of forest, we safeguard both the future of our people and humanity itself, restoring deforested areas and teaching sustainable ways to plant and nurture trees. This tour invites you into a living tradition born from the heart of the Amazon Forest.
