About Innergreen Visions

A Grounded Approach to San Pedro

Innergreen Visions was created from a deep personal relationship with San Pedro and a belief that meaningful experiences begin long before the retreat itself. Our approach values preparation, trust, patience, and the willingness to meet the experience with openness and personal responsibility.

Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all process, we take time to understand each person’s intentions, questions, concerns, and prior experience. The goal is to create a setting that feels calm, safe, and supportive, while helping participants approach San Pedro with greater clarity, intention, and awareness.

The journey begins with intention, but the experience unfolds through presence, openness, and integration.

Our Approach

How We Support the Journey

Our San Pedro retreats are held over a weekend, creating space for preparation, the overnight experience, and reflection while respecting the rhythms of everyday life.

Preparation

Preparation creates the foundation for the experience. Through an initial conversation and personal consultation, we explore your intentions, expectations, questions, and readiness so you can enter the retreat with greater clarity and confidence.

Retreat Experience

Retreats are held in a calm and intentional environment designed to support presence, reflection, and connection. Group size is limited to fewer than 10 participants, and retreats take place at carefully selected private homes or properties, with the location varying based on the season and availability. Each setting is chosen for comfort, privacy, access to nature, and room to move through the experience at your own pace.

Integration

Integration helps you reflect on what arose during the retreat and consider how its insights may relate to your everyday life. Follow-up conversations offer space to process the experience without forcing immediate conclusions or interpretations.

San Pedro Retreats

Retreats Designed with Intention

Our San Pedro retreats are private, carefully prepared experiences centered on presence, personal reflection, and connection with the natural world. The setting, pace, and structure are designed to give each participant room to move through the experience without unnecessary pressure or distraction.

Every retreat begins with conversation and preparation. We take time to understand what is bringing you to the experience, what support may be helpful, and whether the retreat feels appropriate for you. The process is personal by design, with attention given to the individual rather than a fixed format.

The Retreat Journey

  1. Initial Conversation

    We begin with an honest conversation about your interest in San Pedro, your intentions, your questions, and what you hope to gain through the experience.

  2. Preparation

    Preparation will include practical guidance, personal reflection, intention setting, diet, medication review, and discussion of what to expect before, during, and after.

  3. Retreat Experience

    The retreat takes place in a supportive and intentional setting, with space for quiet, movement, nature, conversation, and personal reflection as the experience unfolds.

  4. Integration

    After the retreat, integration offers an opportunity to revisit the experience, explore what stood out, and consider how its insights may continue to develop over time.

Personal Consultations

Guidance Before and After the Experience

Consultations are available for people preparing for a San Pedro experience, reflecting on a past experience, or simply seeking a thoughtful conversation about whether this path feels appropriate for them.

These conversations are not about prescribing meaning or telling you what your experience should be. They offer a grounded space to clarify intentions, work through uncertainty, reflect on what arose, and consider how to move forward with care.

  • Preparation Clarify your intentions, questions, expectations, and practical considerations before entering a retreat or personal experience.
  • Personal Guidance Receive personalized guidance shaped around your unique circumstances, questions, intentions, and experience.
  • Integration Support Create space to reflect on the experience and consider how its meaning may continue to unfold in your life.

About the Medicine

Understanding San Pedro

San Pedro is a cactus with a long cultural history and a distinctive place among traditional plant practices. Approaching it responsibly requires respect for its history, careful preparation, and an understanding that the experience can be powerful, personal, and transformative.

History and Tradition

San Pedro has a documented history of use in the Andes extending back more than 3,500 years, with archaeological evidence connecting the cactus to ceremonial, spiritual, and healing traditions. Known traditionally as wachuma, it has remained part of Andean cultural practices across generations, where its use has been associated with healing, connection, and engagement with the natural and spiritual world.

Preparation and Respect

A thoughtful relationship with San Pedro begins with preparation. Clear intentions, honest self-reflection, and respect for the plant and the process can help create a more grounded foundation for the experience.

Safety and Responsibility

San Pedro experiences are not appropriate for everyone. Responsible participation includes honest disclosure, thoughtful screening, and intentional preparation for the experience.
