Activities
Ceremonies
Our institute holds ceremonies every month in different locations across the country, where we work with the ayahuasca medicine.
Ayahuasca demands humility, surrender, determination, and discipline from us. Respecting these values during the ceremony makes it possible to create a harmonious environment for delving into inner work. While we gather in a circle, the spiritual work is an individual moment, an encounter with ourselves.
In contrast to retreats that last several days, ceremonies are punctual encounters with an approximate duration of six hours. Those attending for the first time participate in an individual interview where they have the opportunity to discuss more personal concerns. In the days leading up to the ceremony, proper preparation is required, and it is important to follow the recommendations provided when scheduling.
To confirm participation in any of our ceremonies, at Sol de la Nueva Aurora, we evaluate each case individually. If there is a specific medical condition, medication use, or addiction to any substance, it is important to communicate this in advance so that we can offer the appropriate guidance and confirm eligibility for participation in our activities.
Our 2024 calendar is available here on the website. For more information, please contact us.
Retreats
Throughout the year, we offer various retreats options that include ayahuasca ceremonies, tobacco ceremonies, sweat lodge ceremonies (temazcal), exponential workshops, and different exercises for expanding consciousness.
Based on what we have learned, we approach the work with ancestral medicines by establishing a routine that allows us to understand and integrate what each retreat has to offer. It is important to approach the experience with openness to the various dynamics, which often take us out of our comfort zone. The retreat begins the moment we decide to participate.
Ceremonies and other activities are led by Santos Victorino and a multidisciplinary team. It is a carefully curated environment, and in addition to the leader, there are experienced individuals assisting and supporting participants throughout the entire retreat.

Microdosing Ayahuasca
Microdoses of ayahuasca, accompanied by therapeutic support and guidance, provide greater clarity in facing our processes and emotions, expanding love, empowerment, and unity.
These doses subtly act in everyday life without altering perception, bringing lasting changes in the psyche of individuals. Administered in this way, this brew manages to create a state of being where cognitive functions and emotional balance improve, enhancing creativity, performance, and concentration during an activity or task. Additionally, it increases psychic abilities, sharpening spiritual perception.
Microdosing does not produce any perceptual alterations, such as visual hallucinations or fractals.
It has proven to be effective in combating depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, addictions, grieving processes, insomnia, and other anomalies. It also shows good results in treating behavioral and attention disorders at an early age. In adolescents, it helps with personality issues and existential conflicts typical of development. It possesses neuroprotective and neurogenerative properties.
Individuals who take ayahuasca microdoses remain adapted and integrated into their social, work, and family environments, contributing to their personal and spiritual growth.
Ayahuasca microdosing contains the beta-carboline alkaloids (harmine and harmaline) found in the Banisteriopsis caapi vine, also known as cipó, and DMT, N-DMT (dimethyltryptamine) present in the leaves of the Psychotria viridis bush (chacruna).
Dosage Comparison: Macrodose vs. Microdose.
Microdosing Treatment: 20 drops (1 ml), where each drop is 0.05 ml.
Macrodose or ingestion in a ceremonial ayahuasca session: 15 to 20 ml.
Microdosing treatment is carried out after a preliminary evaluative interview with Santos Victorino, director of Sol de la Nueva Aurora, or with endorsed professionals who are members of our team.
In the case that an individual is undergoing pharmacological treatment or has a diagnosed medical condition, the case will be assessed to avoid contraindications arising from the interaction with the components present in the brew.
Individuals with complex psychiatric illnesses, such as schizophrenia or borderline personality disorder, are excluded.
For other health conditions, please inquire about your specific case.
Dosage can be indicated for periods of days or weeks, always accompanied by follow-up and guidance.
Feitios
At Sol de la Nueva Aurora, we cook the ayahuasca that we use in our ceremonies and retreats. Every year, in collaboration with the “Flores de Amor” community, we conduct our rituals in Novo Hamburgo RS, Brazil. There, we dedicate many hours of continuous work to prepare our sacred ayahuasca medicine in harmony and brotherhood.
"This brew has a significant history behind it. Brothers and sisters who crafted it in a very artisanal, very human way. There were hands that cultivated the plants, hands that harvested and processed them, hands that then cooked them. People who stood by the pot, cooking, drinking ayahuasca, feeling the ancestral being, the divine being, in harmony with that alchemical process, because that's how we make ayahuasca. When you drink this brew, try to connect with those hands, with those hearts, with those feelings."
