Highlights

  • Join Peruvian Sound Healer Shaman Pierre Garreaud and Janice Johnson for a powerful, life changing Inner Journey Experience.

Details

Pierre Garreaud is pleased to offer an extraordinary inner journey to the Magical Andes of Perú to work with the Sacred in beautiful rituals and ceremonies. This is a unique and interactive 8-day group retreat-style program for people interested in having a breathtaking cultural and spiritual experience. We will work alongside the sacred sites of the Inca, and there will be ceremonies and rituals, prayer, YOGA, Mantras, and meditations. Yoga and harmonium mantras will be led by Janice Garreaud (Certified Instructor). Pierre has been offering tours in the Andes for over 16 years. Since he was born in Perú, Pierre has incredible insights regarding the 'how' the sacred sites were built, portals, ley lines, and power spots. During the Retreat, we will work at our resort's facility, which has a labyrinth, a yoga outdoor space, and one of the special jewels, The Cupula Sound Chamber. The Cupula was created by Artist Gam Klutier, and it encompasses a 36-meter by 3-painted canvas alongside the perimeter. We will offer yoga, meditations, shamanic sound healing, teachings, and Karpays, which are energetic activations for the Merkaba. Activities at the resort are beautifully harmonized with visits to Inca temples and energetic vortexes. Every day, there will be a pilgrimage to a unique sacred site that correlates with a specific chakra. You will receive vibrational tones and energy, as well as Inca Karpay spiritual seeds, to help you expand your body, mind, and soul template to receive more of your Higher Self Light. With each sacred site, we will work with opening, clearing, and expanding each chakra.

Testimonials

It is hard to put this amazing, life-changing, healing journey into one paragraph. This is a must-experience Retreat/tour of Peru with Pierre and Janice of Peru Sacred Tours. Pierre and Janice are the most loving and caring people I have ever met. Their passion and love for what they do show in everything we experienced on this magical tour. Everything is well planned with lovely people, unique places, and absolutely delicious food. I felt very safe and absolutely well taken care of.

My trip to Peru with Pierre Garreaud changed my life completely. I quit a job that no longer fulfilled me before I arrived in Peru with the intention of finding out who I was, what my passion was, and where my path would lead me next. I got all those answers and more. I saw a beautiful country with kind and helpful people, amazing Incan buildings, and artwork. I participated in healing ceremonies. I hiked the Amazon Rainforest and climbed Machu Picchu. All of this was made easy.

Pierre’s Peru tour is a must do for anybody seeking a life impacting experience. The experience and tools he gives you access to are powerful, delightful, sincere and well thought out with an element of flexibility. As a compassionate shaman Pierre provided guidance and insight into the process of growth, one time he stated that a full realization of the trip can take time, even a year. He exposed us to many wonderful shaman guides and healers. Ok, I can be patient. Well here I am one year later. It truly was a life changing experience. The original magnet for me was Machu Pichu but that paled in comparrasion to the other unexpected gems and unbelievably wonderful expereiences. From seeing and visiting the most astounding temples and ruins, to the indigenous peoples we encountered, always chaperoned by the most absolutely wonderful shamans from whom we received their insights and blessings, the rituals of release and healing, the experience of hiking in high altitudes, coca leaves, the beautiful lodging accommodations.

I found my HALLELUJAH!!! Oct 2018 This was the most amazing, most life changing trip I've ever been on!!!. Peru Sacred Tours planned an awesome tour. Each Tour Guide, each Driver, each Shaman, each Host, each Healer, went above & beyond to make sure that our every need was met. The sites, the sounds, the people are more beautiful than I ever could've imagined! I'm already working on manifesting my next visit there! Heck, I'd even love to move there! You will always be in good hands with the people at Peru Sacred Tours!
