Pełna historia
For Johana, this retreat began before the journey. She had spent a month preparing deeply. She wanted to commit herself to the experience, continue her path, and she believed in it. An advertisement she had seen on Facebook had brought her here. On the final morning, she speaks of her happiness at having followed that possibility and chosen to come.
What stands out in her words is clarity. She says she can surrender to the experience and continue her work. What she lived through the previous evening feels to her like the link between the moments of the retreat. She does not describe every detail. Some things still escape her words. But when she speaks about leaving, the words she chooses are clear: joy, peace, light, love.
And there are the others. The unexpected encounters, the conversations, the love she says she feels within a group where everyone is different. After only a few days, leaving feels strange. She had arrived with her own preparation and personal commitment. In her account on the final morning, the bonds with the group have a place of their own. She thanks the people who shared the experience with her.
Then her thanks turn in another direction. She thanks herself. For committing to it. For believing in it. For that month of preparation that was already part of her journey. In her words, we hear both what she received from others and what she brought through her own willingness. She does not describe the rest of her life. She tells us what she is leaving with that morning: a feeling of joy and peace, and encounters she had not expected.
What Johana describes is her experience alone. Every person's journey is different. Thank you for listening. This was Ayahuasca Stories.
