Wanda and the Ayahuasca Retreat Experience
I want to take a moment to share about Wanda, the incredible facilitator of the Ayahuasca retreats in New Jersey. From the moment you meet her, she feels like a nurturing mother—gentle, caring, and deeply respectful of the medicine. Her reverence for the sacred process is so profound that you naturally grow to hold the same love and respect for it.
My first retreat with her was the most beautiful, transformative experience of my life. I’m already planning to return in April for another journey. Throughout the entire retreat, Wanda’s care and guidance made us feel like we were her children—safe, protected, and truly seen. Her warmth and wisdom created an environment where healing felt not only possible but inevitable.
I can confidently say that Wanda knows what she’s doing—she’s the real deal. She holds space with integrity and grace, allowing profound healing to unfold, as long as we are willing to do our part. With the right facilitator, like Wanda, there is no need to fear taking this powerful step. When you heal yourself, you also heal your lineage—those who came before you and those who will follow.
If you’re considering an Ayahuasca journey, I highly recommend experiencing it with Wanda. It’s more than a retreat—it’s a sacred, life-changing path to deep healing.
I feel very honored to be working with Wanda through my healing journey. She has wonderful vibes and so do her Angel Helpers. They make you feel welcomed and at home. Her land is beautiful and quiet and her Maloca is so inviting and peaceful. I love that she does only small groups which keeps the ceremonies more intimate. Wanda first sends out applications with many health/personal questions to all those who are interested in doing plant medicine with her. She will then let you know if you qualify based off your answers. She wants to make sure your health comes first. When you arrive, Wanda will show you around and let you get settled in. She makes sure you are relaxed and goes over the ceremony with you so you can know what to expect. She gives you the option of using a few other plant medicines with Ayahuasca. So nothing is ever forced. During the ceremonies her and the Angel Helpers are there watching over us, in case we need them. Wanda knows exactly when you will need her and she doesn’t hesitate to come to you if necessary. After ceremonies, there are integration and healing circles.
She doesn’t stop there, after you leave, integration continues, and you can contact her anytime and she will also be in contact with you. Your safety is her number one priority.
For years, I had dreamed of doing Plant medicine, waiting for the perfect time and place. The first time I met Wanda, I knew right away that she was the one to guide me; I felt completely safe with her. Her knowledge and wonderful energy create a space that is loving and truly safe to do the work.
When I had my first ceremony with Wanda I had so many doubts and questions. After my ceremony I walked out of there with absolutely no questions or doubts that I made the right decision in trusting Wanda. I continue to stay in contact with Wanda and will definitely continue to work with her.
I feel honored to know Wanda. She holds her work in honor, safety, respect and true wisdom. I adore her energy in every way. She is humble which is so rare to find. She truly has the deepest respect for the plants. I trust her abd admire her.
Just returned from my 4 th and 5 th ceremonies and feel more than ever that my life is changing for the better. My experiences have been beautiful, hard and loving. I know more than ever that I am a spiritual being living a human experience. I’m so glad the Universe and Mother Ayuhuaska led me to Wanda for my initiation into plant medicines. Yemaya Moon Spiritual Church is a wonderful place to heal both physically and spiritually. ❤️
I had been wanting to do Ayahuasca for years, and this past weekend, I finally had the opportunity to sit with Wanda in ceremony. I can’t express how grateful I am for the safe space and beautiful experience that Wanda provided. It was an honor to work with someone that’s so diligent in her teachings, yet super funny and makes you feel comfortable and welcome immediately upon entering her space.
You can tell that she is highly trained and truly loves what she does. You can feel in her calming energy that she truly cares about your journey, and shows you appreciation for showing up. It’s simply her way of life!
I also love that she provides endless integration after ceremony. It’s not only important, but it’s amazing to continue to share with her and the group that you sat with following the experience with an open heart.
I truly feel like I was called to Yemeya Moon Spiritual church for my first experience for a reason!! I was already planning my return before I left. Needless to say, I can’t recommend Wanda and her church enough—it’s an honor to be going back in just a few months!:)
