"So greatfull for unforgetable experience ftom retreat!! Life changing experience with caring staff, good meal, comfortable accomodation, loving space! My love foerever"

Nataliya Jun 30, 2023

"I did a lot of research and landed on Mexisoul for two reasons. The first was the variety of things they offered- ayahuasca, bufo, samadhi, sweat lodge ceremony, and a fire circle. They also have a pool, horses, hiking, agave farm, wolf sanctuary, and tons of good exploring around the grounds. There just aren't places that offer this. The second reason was their size. The max number of participants for the week was 17. This is so different than most of the other retreat places where they have 50-70 participants. All of the above made this week the most special of my life. The 16 acres is just a wonderful place. Lots to do, tons of relaxation areas, and just beauty everywhere. The small number of participants allowed me to really connect with the others and I feel like I love them all and made lifelong friends. The rooms were fantastic. There were some privates and some shared. Everyone I talked to loved their space and were completely comfortable. The food was great and they had veg and non-veg options. The staff and Shaman at Mexisoul is second to none. They are the most kind and compassionate, non-judgmental group of folks. I felt both safe and secure the entire weeks. Truly phenomenal people. And it wasn't corporate ran or all stuffy- it was an easy, fun, casual, relaxing, loving environment. The shaman, Humberto is simply womderful. Sooooo much wisdom and zero pretense. You can talk to him about anything. Mexisoul has my highest highest highest recommendation. If you are being called to a place like this or to plant medicine, but are feeling nervous, just close your eyes and leap to Mexisoul. It will change your life.

Robb July 14, 2023

"I can’t express enough positive about my experience, the people, the place, the food, the medicine. I will never go anywhere else for plant medicine. I was SO cared for by Humberto and Krista during a difficult medicine experience. The food was incredibly good and not once did I miss meat. My private room, Loba, was perfect without a detail overlooked. The flow of the retreat was intentional and perfect. The Finca is overwhelmingly peaceful and beautiful, time stood still for me. Ruger took all my physical limitations into consideration and cared for me well. Everyone at this place including all the volunteers are beautiful and loving humans. This was the most difficult, enlightening, week of my life and I have so much gratitude. I look forward to coming back!"

Sheryl Jun 29, 2023

"This retreat was transformative! The Shaman, Humberto, was an inspiration and such a beautiful soul! He has inspired me to start my own journey of facilitating the healing of others in Colorado and around the world! This retreat helped me get more focused on my triggers and really gave me the opportunity to fall into some deep meditation where I spoke with the universe about all of the questions I needed answers to! I was able to sing again and find my voice through this retreat! Most everyone was so amazing and wonderful! I’m so glad I booked this retreat! Highly highly recommend for anyone looking to find community, love, acceptance, and to reconnect to you! My biggest take away was that no matter how uncomfortable you are at any moment, you will feel better and will be forever changed! Don’t pass this up!"

Kelly Jun 29, 2023

"Words can not describe the gratitude I feel towards Mexisoul and the love and light they offer to those who are in pain and suffer daily with all that life brings. Humberto helped me release my pain. Jamie brought me peace. Ruger was the gift of change. Marina was a presence of strength and comfort as owner of the Finca. The musicians and their music guided me through my journey. The beautiful volunteers were my rock guiding me through each step of my process with love, compassion, and the feeling of always being secure. The cooks, cleaning crew, administration, grounds keepers, and staff/volunteers were reassuring in the way they provided to our needs. As to the group of eighteen of us that attended the retreat, I will be eternally grateful for the love, and compassion that guided us each day to experience one of the best weeks of our lives. In synopsis, to all who seek change, release and love look no further than Mexisoul. Be open minded and patient. Let your journey unfold before your very eyes. Always honour the medicine and the process. Remember to "Breath and be Present" With love and immense gratitude, Shawn"

Ruger Hebert

CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER

For most of my adult life, I battled with depression, unhappiness, and a profound dissatisfaction with existence. Despite trying various therapies, medications, and self-help strategies, I never found the breakthrough I desperately sought.  A lack of results gave rise to self-medicating coping mechanisms like drugs, pornography, sex, and the biggest for me – alcohol.  The more they didn’t work the more the feeling of hopelessness grew. This feeling of despair translated into two rehabs and three hospitalizations for suicidal ideation over the course of my life. However, I was still searched for an answer.  It was during a stable period that my therapist suggested I try  ayahuasca, connecting me with Humberto and his remarkable group of individuals.

Before sharing my first ayahuasca experience, it’s crucial to acknowledge that each person’s journey is  unique, and every encounter with the medicine yields different results.

 

At the time, I held atheistic beliefs rooted in my engineering background, maintaining a perspective that life simply consisted of living, suffering, and dying. Despite my skepticism, I embarked on my first ayahuasca ceremony. However, for the first 3.5 hours, I felt nothing, while witnessing others laugh, cry, or enter altered states.  Feelings of doubt and hopeless crept in, so I decided to journal about a traumatic experience involving my father, questioning whether anything would work for me. Sensing my frustration, an amazing individual approached me, and said “I’m a healer, can I help you?

I immediately thought to myself, “healer”? Bullshit. But, I had nothing to lose. I put my journal down, and she took my hand. The very first thing she said to me was “Wow, you’re really channeling your dad right now.” This time I didn’t hold back on my thoughts, I said it out loud “bullshit, you saw me write in my journal.” She calmly explained, “first of all it’s dark in here, second I don’t have my glasses on.” Third, she put a blindfold on. She proceeded to tell me specific details about the experience with my father, as well as a litany of other things that happened in my life. I was silent through the entire experience, and considered that perhaps I had been wrong about beliefs my entire life. Desperately seeking an explanation, my mind rationalized that I had also told the therapist, who recommended I try ayahuasca, all of these things. In that exact moment, the “healer” mentioned something that had happened, the previous day, in my car, completely alone. In that moment, I felt like all the walls around my brain exploded. The flood gates opened, I began to cry, I felt an extreme sense of humility and gratitude. I felt a divine, loving connection, and I realized that there is more to life than I thought. This marked the beginning of my transformative journey.

Humberto Alcala

SHAMAN

We are proud to introduce Humberto Alcala, a modern-day medicine man who will be leading all of our medicine retreats. Humberto’s journey began ten years ago when his personal experiences with ayahuasca guided him away from a successful contracting business in California and towards becoming a revered facilitator and shaman of mental exploration and emotional healing through sacred medicines.

His path led him to live among indigenous tribes deep in the Peruvian jungle near Pucallpa, where he trained extensively

 

with an experienced traditional Shipibo Shaman. This immersive experience included master plant dietas, vision quests, and profound inner work. Humberto’s unique background, combined with his traditional shamanic training, allows him to serve as a bridge between the western psychology of most participants and the native South American medicines and cosmology. This integration facilitates a transformative experience for retreat guests, enabling them to fully embrace the lessons learned during ceremonies.

Originally conducting small-scale sessions in his birthplace of Tepatitlan, Jalisco, Mexico, Humberto’s work has now expanded worldwide. He has traveled to various regions of Mexico, numerous cities in the United States, Europe, and now South America. With almost 8 years of experience, Humberto has facilitated over 400 sacred medicine ceremonies. Known for his down-to-earth, easygoing, and compassionate personality, he creates a safe and secure environment for all participants. Humberto’s philosophy centers around the belief that there is nothing to fix, and that we are already perfect as we are. He offers a transformative opportunity for individuals to reconnect with themselves, learn, grow, heal, and ultimately remember their true essence.
