Are you someone who truly wants to know? Do you long for depth? Do you love horses whether as a horse owner or simply as an admirer? Do you feel drawn to nature and its magic, yearning to see beyond the veil of the obvious?
The retreat “Daughters of the Wind & Guardians of the Fire” could be your opportunity for a profound breakthrough.
If you wish, I’d be happy to send you more information about this unique retreat, featuring the high-vibrational horses of the Horse-Inspiration Academy and the power of plant medicine, guided with care in Shipibo tradition by the organization Visiones (https://visiones.org), led by my dear friends Desiree (Metsa Yaka) and Markus (Sanken Tsoma).
Daughter of the Wind and Guardian of the Fire
Women, Men & Horses… on the path of the peaceful warrior
10.-18. Mai 2025 /// Andalusia / Spain
(You do not need any experience with horses to take part)

Ladies first
Further down my invitation to the men.
“You’ve probably already met her…”
…The peaceful warrior in YOU who, no matter how hurt she feels, how small or big, how poor or rich, has decided to walk the path of her TRUE SELF.
And this warrior confidently guides you through deep gut feeling to free your true SELF from the corset of instilled rules of etiquette. You start to show up strong and stop saying YES to everything.
This is what it feels like when the peaceful warrior takes the reins to lead you into a life of your TRUE SELF.
She is an archetype that every woman carries within herself
– She carries deep knowledge of the sacredness of the connection between humans, nature and their beings and is prepared to intervene in a protective manner when the sacredness of this connection is disregarded, desecrated and humiliated.
– She is braver than her own fear, which makes her so similar to a wild horse.
– She follows her heart and what fulfills her most deeply, knowing that this is her strength to be able to truly GIVE.
– In past advanced cultures she was the element who was able to set boundaries to men, who left the path of their heart in order to exploit nature instead of serving it.
It’s time to give a clear boundary to our own inner man who exploits instead of serving. It’s no longer about men and women, it’s about our own inner aspects of female and male essence, which we can bring back into a new balance.
Are you that WOMAN who is ready to reawaken her peaceful warrior spirit?
Invitation for the MEN
– Do you instinctively feel that the goal is not to make men and women “equal,” but rather to live their differences in their full power?
– Does it frustrate you when you’re expected to behave like a woman—while still being told to “be a man”?
– Do you miss strong male role models who show you what it truly means to be a man?
I cannot be that role model for you—because I am a woman. But I have something else to offer you.
Perhaps you have read the text for women. Did it resonate with you? Would you be drawn to a woman who is both wild and gentle, who speaks her mind without holding back? A woman who challenges you with her fiery intensity, who sometimes rages like a storm for no apparent reason—only to overwhelm you the next day with her beauty and radiant presence?
If this question stirs something in you, then this path might hold meaning for you.
A horse shaman I deeply respect, Klaus Ferdinand Hempfling, once expressed it well (paraphrased):
A horse embodies the feminine in its purest form. A woman, in her true feminine essence, shares many of these qualities. To a man, a horse is a counterpart—a mirror of his attitude toward the feminine. The way a culture treats its women and its horses reveals its true level of ethical, moral, and spiritual maturity.
An Invitation for You
What I can offer you is the opportunity to encounter the feminine essence in its purest form—embodied by a living horse.
Men often don’t need long explanations. What exactly will happen, how it works, why it matters—that is something for you to discover on your own. The horse will not answer you with words but through direct experience.
But that’s not all. Another force awaits you: Grandmother Ayahuasca.
Here, your courage is required. I know that for a man, surrendering control is no small thing. Yet once Mother Ayahuasca begins to work with you, you will step beyond the limits of what you know. No one can predict the lessons she will bring.
Your Guides

LARISSA SIMON
…is an ambassador for the horse-medicine. Anyone who meets her encounters their true self in interaction with her and the horses. It is very important to her to initiate people of all ages into the art of self-discovery. As soon as a person is able to reflect on themselves in depth, beyond right and wrong, the process of healing and finding the TRUE SELF begins. Her allies are the horses. She herself has been walking side by side with them for more than 20 years. She lives with her husband and 13 of her own horses on a finca in Andalusia.

Desiree Dior Commey, Metsa Yaka,
Metsa Yaka is a passionate practitioner of ‘inner work’. As a shaman, she works with various master plants and horse medicine. Her intention is always to discover the root of the ‘problem’ in order to heal and transform in a profound way.
In her trauma-oriented work she adresses the wisdom of the body and the emotional body and implements elements of energy, body and process work.
Guided by her strong intuition, her clairvoyant abilities and a deeper understanding of the holistic picture, Metsa Yaka holds a space of presence, clarity, love and non-judgmental permission in which people and animals find their way into presence, healing, reconnection and can find their inner wisdom.
She also works as an ambassador and translator for the horse and animal world and supports animal-human connections to find a deeper understanding, grow with one another and form an authentic relationship.

Sanken Tsoma / Xaguar
For many years, Sanken Tsoma has been deeply immersed in the practice of plant medicine and shamanic techniques, dedicating himself to the path of inner transformation. Driven by a profound quest for inner freedom and liberation, he sees himself in service to others, guiding them on their journeys of personal and spiritual growth.
To support this mission, he has been organizing retreats across various European countries since 2013. Along this journey, he has undergone shamanic diets with teacher plants from both the Amazon and Europe, receiving initiation into this sacred work from indigenous teacher of the Peruvian Shipibo tradition and the Peruvian Q’ero/Inca Tradition.
In addition, he has integrated his shamanic path with his love for music, creating the music project Xaguar. This project serves as both a shamanic and artistic expression, for producing medicine house music and creating sacred space in ecstatic dance ceremonies.
What’s waiting for you:
The wonderful, wild and pure horses
of the Horse-Inspiration Academy
Why alive horses as co-coaches?
Dancing freely with a horse has the power to free you from the corset of a past that did not serve your true self.
The horse is an image of a liberated WOMAN. Untamed, infinitely loving, powerful through unbridled liveliness, deeply connected to Mother Nature and powerfully decisive when necessary. A woman like this can and will turn things around for the better. Such women are needed now.
Such women are the partners of men who truly seek to connect with the feminine essence rather than dominate it.
Together with your “teacher horse”, guided by Larissa, you will start the journey to these innate qualities.
Plant Medicine Ceremonies with Metsa Yaka and Sanken Tsoma

In these Plant Ceremonies you are connecting with powerful Spirits of the sacred healing plants from the Peruvian Amazon.
By drinking the sacred and powerful Medicine you enter the worlds of the Master Plants, which enable you to work on a higher level of consciousness and experience deep healing, purification and transformation on a physicall, emotional, psychologica, energetical and spiritual level.
This potent Medicine can heal traumata, transform old patterns and removes blockages from – not only this lifetime – in a profound way.
The Plant Spirits are opening you up to your inner truth, connecting you to your higher self, a deeper understanding and the blessings of life.
Through the integration of the experienced, the teachings and the wisdom of the Plants, this can be the starting point to change your life and live it in full potential.
It is also possible to take part in the ceremonies without drinking the medicine.
Dance of the Jaguar – Ecstatic Dance Cacao Ceremony with DJ Xaguar

We open a sacred space for an emotional release and celebration ceremony. The Dance of the Jaguar – an Ecstatic Dance Ceremony with Medicine House music and the heart opening medicine of Cacao, held and guided by medicine man, DJ and producer Xaguar. Ecstatic Dance is a free-form spiritual dance practice with the intention of creating a healing journey, transforming one’s consciousness and connecting with one’s inner self.
Cacao Ceremonies are originated all the way back to Mayan and Aztec traditions in Central and South America. The spirit of Cacao – also called Mama Cacao – was worked with in spiritual ceremonies to open up the heart, to bring clarity, inner harmony and to connect to ones creativity. The heart opening Medicine can unlock euphoric states, release emotions and enabels you to connect to our Higher Self, our wisdom within, the loving energy in our body and will also calm the mind. Cacao has been used for centuries to heal the mental, physical and spiritual body.
The retreat takes place in the Cinco Lunas Seminar Center
An oasis in the middle of the nature reserve of the Sierra Grazalema, where we will be lovingly served vegan meals and will all live together in the guest house for our time together.
