I can’t express how greatful I am to Lisa and Miguel for what they have created at Shangriballa.
The medicine is beautiful, and powerful beyond your imagination, and I believe it requires extraordinary love and attentiveness to serve it well.
The experience with the medicine is beyond words, you simply can’t foresee what revelations unfold with it…
So the setting, the lead in, the discussions, the group work, the support afterwards … It’s invaluable.
What they are doing here is the real deal. If you are looking for a place to face your Self, you cannot find safer people to face it with.
Amazing location, excellent food, and unconditional loving kindness 🐸 🙏 🤍
I visited the Kambo Tree and Shangriballa retreat center in the summer of 2024. I had a wonderful experience. Lisa and Miguel are expert practitioners of the medicines but also have a deep spiritual practice that I found very helpful to integrate my experiences. My ceremonies were incredibly profound and life-changing but it’s impossible to explain this with words – you can only understand by experiencing it. The Center is a tiny hamlet in a beautiful green valley and the whole atmosphere is completely welcoming and nurturing. I can recommend this retreat without any reservations.
Lisa and Miguel have really mastered the art of holding space for people. They guide you through your fears, worries and any other emotions that arise while at the retreat and beyond while still trusting you are your own guru who has their own answers within themselves. They are both extremely loving, caring and compassionate beings who you can feel completely safe with. Thank you both for this journey, I love you!
I’m at a loss for words to express my gratitude to Lisa & Miguel for these 7 days. It was pure magic ✨
The opportunity to touch the “infinite” with something as finite as the mind is an experience that will always remain beyond words (you simply can’t grasp it). The event’s organization, the safe space created by the entire team of organizers (including contributions from Cathrine and Julia), was at the highest possible level. And Lisa’s experience, her knowledge, insights, and the way she individually guided each participant smoothly throughout the entire workshop – this is something that cannot be priced in money – absolutely priceless!
Everything I’ve mentioned above is incredibly helpful for integrating everything we can experience with them afterward!
And finally, I cannot forget the entire group of participants (of which I had the honor to be a part)… wow, without a doubt, there wasn’t even a hint of coincidence here, as each of us was a key to unlocking something grand in the next person – I bow to you all, it was truly wonderful to be a part of this amazing spectacle called Life! 🫂💙
What a show…
What a cosmic joke…
Definitely 6 stars out of 5 possible 🙂

Where to begin?…
Bufo was for me an experience of fundamental significance. I felt it to be very vibrational in all possible sense of the term. I was very and happily surprised by the experience.
I felt that Lisa and Miguel have the sensitivity to feel nature of these kind of experiences. And as such, they bring a good energy and positive vibrations to these experiences. Lisa and Miguel have had personal experiences themselves which greatly helped creating a safe and secure environment for this experience. I was honestly amazed with the rigour and thoroughness with which Lisa conducted this retreat. I am thankful to both of you dear Friends 🙂
If you are thinking about booking this retreat, this is your sign to DO IT!
Finding the words to explain how magical this retreat was is difficult. From the very start I felt at home with a group of strangers who quickly became very important to me. Lisa is truly a remarkable human, who is sharing her light with the world. I am beyond honored to have had the opportunity for her to facilitate my Kambo and Bufo experiences. Her, Miguel, and Catherine make the most amazing and professional team. The guidance, the music, the facility, the medicine, all incredible.
The location could not be better. Perched up in the mountains, Loural provides an opportunity to escape into nature while practicing mindfulness and connection to oneself. It is filled with impeccable healing energy. The food is fresh, nourishing, and delicious. And the experiences with the medicine… beautiful beyond comprehension. This experience is an opportunity of a lifetime.
I truly am so grateful and feel a million thank you’s to Lisa, Miguel, and Catherine will never suffice. Much love
I had a great time at Loural Eco village. Accommodation, food and location were just perfect. Lisa and Miquel are just so nice and knowledgeable, they put you at ease straight away. And Catherine!! Wow!! Her music is worth the fee alone. And then the medicine. It gives you exactly what you need. Feel so good in myself since returning home. If you get a chance to participate in one of these retreats grab it with both hands. Thank you to all for making the weekend and all the lovely people I meet there. Thank you. Till the next time…..
OMG WOW!! OMG Thank you with all of what my heart can be thankful for.
This was truly a life changing experience and i will forever be gratful.
Lisa is truly amazing, truly wonderful and true shaman that hold each individual
by the hand in the way they need to be held to go through this journey.
Miguel was also an amazing person to also have around.
I will not talk to much about my journey but if you feel the calling to do the work with these two
beautiful souls. I highly highly recommend it.
Thank you all
We recently had the privilege of a transformative Bufo experience, guided by Lisa and Miguel. Their profound knowledge, deep understanding and support were key in making our journeys truly remarkable. We were humbled by how much we learned from our conversations with them, often feeling that their insights surpassed the experiences we had with the medicne itself.
During our time with Lisa and Miguel, we felt incredibly welcomed and part of a loving family. Their warmth and kindness created a safe and nurturing space for us to explore our own consciousness. We are eternally grateful for their guidance, friendship, and their profound impact they have had on our lives.
I recently had the privilege of attending a retreat at Shangriballa and it was truly a life-changing experience. I’ve always been drawn to spiritual practices, but I never imagined I could encounter such a profound awakening. The program was expertly designed to foster deep introspection and personal growth.
I’ve worked with Bufo before, but the experience at this retreat was unparalleled. Lisa’s teachings provided a valuable framework for understanding the journey and its significance. Her guidance helped me appreciate the experience’s transformative potential and embrace the unfolding of new perspectives fully.
What sets this retreat apart is the approach. It’s not about quick fixes or unrealistic expectations of instant transformation. Instead, it’s about a gradual process of self-discovery and the development of a deeper understanding of life’s purpose. Lisa’s genuine care and compassion create a safe and supportive environment where everyone feels valued and accepted.
The retreat centre itself is a serene oasis, offering a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The food was exceptional, with beautifully prepared meals that nourished both the body and soul. The level of service was outstanding, and I would gladly pay more to experience such a high standard of care.
I am eternally grateful to the entire team at Shangriballa for their dedication and expertise. Lisa’s wisdom and guidance continue to inspire me, and I’m fortunate to have her as a mentor. If you’re seeking a truly transformative experience, I wholeheartedly recommend this retreat.
Lisa and Miguel, I’ll forever be grateful to you both for affording me such a profound and special experience. Not only were you both so caring and supportive throughout the whole experience, but you create such an open and loving energy across the whole group. All of us on the retreat are so grateful to you for making it happen. I had such a powerful time and I’m so glad I came on the retreat. Thank you for everything and we will keep in touch. Dylan
Proper screening and preparation are essential before your experience. They ensure participant safety and well-being.

Miguel’s life has been an extraordinary odyssey of transformation through the profound power of sacred medicines. He embarked on a journey of profound self-discovery. He explored the boundless potential for change that these medicines offered, echoing the sentiments of countless seekers in the quest for truth and self-identity.
It was during his inaugural Plant Medicine ceremony that Miguel’s intention to connect with ancestral energies was beautifully realised.
This sacred calling to reconnect with his roots led him back to his homeland, Portugal, a place he had left as a young child, in a powerful testament to the transformative influence of these ancient remedies.
Over time, Miguel’s dedication to the work and his desire to serve others have flourished. His role in leading ceremonies has endowed him with a remarkable and serene masculine presence, offering steadfast support to those on their transformative journeys.
His unique connection to sacred medicines and his grounding influence give participants a sense of reassurance, creating a space for profound healing and spiritual growth. Miguel’s life embodies the profound potential for change and reconnection that sacred medicines can bring. Miguel remains an anchoring force at our Bufo Retreat.
