“Coming to Inkan Rao was a pivotal experience in my life that helped to skyrocket my personal transformation. Justin and his team put so much care and intention into what they do, and despite the physical and emotional discomfort that plant medicine brought on for me, I felt like I was in a warm embrace for my whole trip. Justin's essence is pure love, and that's what he attracts in both those helping to run his retreats and those who visit. ”

"Profoundly transformational! I was fortunate to have completed a 10 day healing retreat at Inkan Rao, lovingly cared for by Dona Angela, Justin, James and team. The serene environment, experience of those in service, and my new family immediately put me at ease. The thoughtful programming truly catered to mind, body, and spirit. The diagnosis and treatment plan were insightful, and the facilitators were both knowledgeable and compassionate. I left feeling pretty invincible & completely rejuvenated, having a deeper understanding of myself with renewed clarity. The plants have been moving fast for me since and I look forward to deepening my work. I highly recommend this retreat for anyone seeking deep healing and unique personal growth."

"I just spent 10 days at a retreat at Inkan Rao… Very few words can describe how incredibly amazing the experience has been. Justin and his team were welcoming, easy to talk to, caring and understanding. They went above and beyond at every step, making myself, and the other participants feel that we were at home. As I’ve experienced other retreats of this kind, none have allowed me to let go as much as this one. The grounds are beautiful, the rooms, bathrooms and facilities are top-notch. Along with being on the foothills of the mountains of the Sacred Valley there are few places in this world that are as blissful. Even though the processes you go through can be incredibly uncomfortable this place gave us all the necessary comfort we needed to explore/take our innermost journeys safely in a space of love. Highly recommend Inkan Rao for anyone who are looking to experience this deep work."
