NATURAL WISDOM
RETREAT
Bringing the spirit of the Amazon to the Netherlands.
You are invited to our upcoming Natural Wisdom Retreat conducted by highly regarded healers and txanas (singing shaman) of the Huni Kuin tribe. We have the honour of welcoming Tuim Nova Era and his daughter Yeke Kaya to hold traditional ceremonies and share their teachings and culture with us.
This retreat is a safe space for you to dive deep into yourself so that you can connect on a profound level with the teachings of the Amazonian medicines.
TUIM NOVA ERA is the chief and spiritual leader of the Huni kuin people at Espelho da Vida Village in the Huni Kuin indignous lands at the Humaita River, Acre, Brazilian Amazon.
He comes from an ancestral lineage of great shamans and txanas and has been giving profound teachings in forest medicine outside his village for over 23 years. He considers himself as an eternal humble student of the medicines and the prayers of his people.
Tuim played a vital role in the recovery of his culture and is the founder of the center Espelho da Vida Institude (hiwea kiri beisiti) wich studies traditional Huni Kuin medicines. His work has been encouraging all generations to study and re-connect with their roots.
YEKE KAYA, daughter of Tuim Nova Era, is a young
apprentice of the Huni Kuin tradition. Since a young age she has studied the traditional healing chants and has already undergone various initiation diets of her tradition and is the vice-coordinator of the women of the "Mirror of Life" village.
She has accompanied her father in spiritual works carried out both in Brazil and abroad, bringing her strength in traditional prayers and on the guitar.
Her powerful voice enchants wherever she goes, bringing much love, healing, and joy.
It was a soul-nourishing experience that I will carry with me always... Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I have never felt so complete and in peace in my life. I can't believe that after all the therapy I have been doing these years that I could find forgiveness for my mother after two sessions. My intention was to understand how to move forward in my life. Now I can see everything clear for what it is and that feels very freeing. Thank you so much for this life changing experience.
