Deep Dive Retreat

Welcome to Sacred Waters Sanctuary – safe, ceremonial plant medicine community in Oregon / Washington.

At Sacred Waters Sanctuary, we hold space for you to learn how to quiet the mind, calm the nervous system, trust in your inner guidance, and find the answers to life’s ultimate questions.

Pre-screened members of our congregation are invited to pray with our sacrament, which we lovingly refer to as Sacred Acacia. The experience is almost identical to an ayahuasca journey, although Sacred Acacia is made from Syrian Rue and Acacia Confusia – plants that originate in Asia.

Purpose of this retreat:

Over three days and two nights, you will have the opportunity to pray with Sacred Acacia twice, alongside meditation, mantra chanting, yoga, time to connect with nature. Our PRAISE retreats are designed to help you cultivate the following:

  • P – Presence: Awaken to the magic and mystery of the present moment. Let your awareness soften into now.
  • R – Remembrance: Reconnect with your soul’s wisdom. Receive divine insight that reminds you of who you truly are.
  • A – Acceptance: Embrace yourself and your life as it is. Cultivate reverence for the beauty in all things—light and shadow alike.
  • I – Integration: Weave the insights of the ceremony into your everyday life. Align your inner world with your outer actions.
  • S – Surrender: Release the need to control. Soften into trust and allow the medicine to guide you.
  • E – Embodiment: Anchor your healing through the body. Rebuild the connection between your mind (thoughts), body (emotions) and soul (purpose).
