This is a call to deep cleansing, to integrate every space within you,

to return to the origin, to remember your essence.

It is a path of openness, of surrender to infinite love,

of complete offering to the whole, of returning to God with every breath.

Here, you begin to feel. Here, you begin to see.

Here, the present reveals itself within you.

This gathering is a gateway, a threshold to the sincerity of the heart.

It is the young one you once were, the adult you have become,

inviting you to recognize the expansion of love,

and within its vastness, discover the humility of simply being.

ALEJANDRA IZURIETA

Alejandra is a medicine woman who was reborn 19 years ago. Her journey has shaped her into a spiritual channel, bridging the physical body and the soul of those she touches.

With her vibration and touch, she reaches directly into the hearts of others, transcending masks and uniting the energy of Earth and Sky. Through her deep connection, she inspires others to rediscover their essence and live in harmony with self-love, a love that can only be found through the connection of the heart.

She received the gift of sacred plant baths from an elder local medicine woman, who passed down this ancestral wisdom to her. From a native shaman of the Amazon, she was blessed with the permission to offer cacao ceremonies, allowing her to deeply connect with this ancient land and its sacred traditions.

ESTEBAN MOLINA

Walker of the Andes, healer, medicine man of the Red Path, Sun Dancer, Night Dancer, bearer of ancestral prayers and indigenous traditions. With 25 years of journey, he holds the ancient memory and the wisdom of Earth, Water, Air, and Fire.

His medicine is life itself.

Blessed with the prayer and altars of two and four-tobacco ceremonies, guardian of the Temazcal, pilgrim of ancient memory. His teachings are not found in books; they are whispered by the rivers, danced by the fire, caressed by the wind, and pulsing within the earth.

"My relationship with the elements is absolute—if even one were missing, life as we know it would cease to exist."

On this retreat, we will NOT take any medicine. Ancestral plants are a shortcut, a doorway that some choose to cross. But a shortcut is not always the path. Taking medicine is not necessary to find yourself.

Medicine is the encounter with yourself, the silence where everything is revealed, the surrender to what you already are. If taken from a place of theory or experimentation, it can cloud rather than clarify.

This retreat is not about consuming medicine, but about receiving it. Receiving the wisdom of fire, water, wind, and earth. Receiving ancient memory, the heartbeat of the drum in your chest, and the truth in your heart.

THE MEDICINE COMES FROM WITHIN

  • MARÍA GLORIA BEDÓN

    I want to share my experience in the ceremonies with Ale and Esteban. In every stage and every session, I have been able to feel myself again, to reconnect with who I am. Before, I felt like a pendulum swinging between the past and the future, never truly in the present, missing the gift of life that was right in front of me.

    I was constantly looking back and forward, with the weight of repetitive thoughts, carrying the burden of memories and expectations, instead of embracing the now. For me, this experience has been a gift of reunion with myself, a process of shedding repetitive stories and breaking free from destructive dialogues that kept me from truly enjoying the present moment.

    This is a space to feel, to heal, and to release.

  • CRISTINA PLAZA

    Ale and Esteban, for me, the experience of being in your ceremonies (and I have been many times 😉) has always been different. But the one constant in all of them, and the reason I keep coming back—and will continue to do so!—is that every time, something of mine returns to me.

    Sometimes, it feels like something was given back to me, other times like I discovered something new, or something within me unlocked. In short, I see myself and feel more like myself. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

    I am grateful to life for having you on my path. This is truly something everyone should experience. 🌸

  • PAOLA VILLAGÓMEZ

    I am deeply grateful to Ale and Esteban for walking by my side on this journey. From the very first ceremony, when you held me in a moment of darkness and helped me detox from a strong addiction, to today, where I now recognize myself as healed, healthy, and embracing myself with love.

    For a long time, I used to say I loved myself, but I never truly felt it. Now, for the first time, that truth lives within me. Thank you for showing me that infinite love is not outside, but within me, in every breath, in every ceremony, in every prayer.

    Thank you for restoring my trust in life, its beauty, and all its possibilities. Despite my initial doubts, I have learned that working in this way has given me real results in every area of my life.

  • CHERYL

    Ale and Esteban, thank you so much for the ceremony. It has been a profound reunion with myself. The love you put into what you do is deeply felt, and the light you share is unparalleled.

    Thank you both for being such an incredible team. ✨

  • BRENDA

    Thank you for easing my soul, for helping me feel my healing.

    The pain is gone, and the best part is that now I have the strength to look at myself again.

    I love you. Being able to experience healing here in Calgary, Canada, while at the same time connecting with Quito, Ecuador, makes me believe again.

    Thank you, medicine man, and to you, my wise and powerful woman. I am lucky to have you.

  • MALENA CHÁVEZ

    On Monday night, I was thinking of you, Mama, asking for light so I could have a good conversation with Antonio. Whenever I think of you and Esteban, your teachings bring me peace and strength.

    Thank you, beautiful woman. ✨
