Description of the Retreat

Rooted Waters offers pathways to healing through ceremony and integration support. Our way is rooted in creative process, nature connection, song, and prayer while holding compassion and respect at the heart of it.

Our Iboga Ceremonies, Psychedelic therapy & Immersive Retreats are crafted with care, offering opportunities for healing and exploring the intricate nature of being human.

We are a small retreat centre based in the exquisite natural environment of British Columbia.

Teacher/Teachings

Iboga has been a major teacher in my life, always whispering wisdom in the wind.

Having had the privilege of being trained and initiated by a Bwete Elder who encouraged me to find my own way, I have carried a keen listening ear through life, learning from plants, animals and people. I have also been initiated in the rare tradition of the Bufo toad and have a extensive experience with Huachuma and Psilocybin mushrooms.

As a trained Reiki practitioner, somatic therapist, medical qi gong practitionaer, bodyworker, addiction recovery coach and more, I find it in my joy to support others through the important healing journey that is life.

I am a passionate beekeeper, gardener, practitioner of ancestral skills and sculptor.

Facilities

The Wakyanii Sanctuary is a place of beauty, peace and serenity. 

Located on SaltSpring Island on the traditional territories of the Coast Salish People specifically the Tsawout, Wsàeć, Quw'utsun, Stz'uminus territories, it is a place of healing where all are welcome.

The Sanctuary is a home for culture and tradition. Everything we do here is cocooned in the woven fabric of our intention: To be a lighthouse for cultural support and traditional teachings.

The Sanctuary is bowl shaped, with a beautiful spring fed pond, cedar grove, honeybees, and many thriving plants; it exudes beauty and it is an honour to be able to share in that beauty with all who come.

Our home, nestled at the center of the 5 acres, is a spacious charming farm house offering a bright main room that is used as the ceremonial space. A cedar sauna sits tucked on the edge of the pond between two weeping willows, Grief & Praise and is often fired up at some point during the weekend. There are many nooks and pockets to explore on the land offering a lovely way to percolate in the post ceremony musings and meditation.

Testimonials

Testimonials:

What an incredible journey. As someone new to plant medicine it took the better part of a year to work up the courage to undergo such an undertaking and I'm really glad I experienced it at Rooted Waters. It's very obvious that Dimitri and Coco really care about you and your wellbeing right from the start. They are great and answering any questions and have such a calming presence. The property and the house are beautiful. I even got to camp in my tent in the woods on their property for the second night under the stars.

The ceremony itself showed me a lot. Even though I felt it intense at times, as the medicine wanted me to really look at things I've tried (unsuccessfully) to ignore, I always felt incredibly safe with Coco and Dimitri in their setting. They really take the time to check in on you and provide anything you may need. A lot of insight was gained days and weeks after the ceremony. I will be returning to Rooted Waters and advise anyone who is looking to dig deeper to do so as well. I feel good remembering this place exists in the world.
