Welcome. The Santuário Jardim de Gaia is a spiritual sanctuary in the Jardim Botânico region of Brasília, Brazil, founded in 2019 by Thiago Lourenço, an ayahuasca healer (curandeiro) who studied with healers in Brazil and Peru and works within Andean and shamanic traditions. Thiago speaks English and Spanish.
Here you will find honest, practical guides for people from other countries who wish to sit in an ayahuasca ceremony in Brazil: what the tradition is, what Brazilian law says, how to prepare, how to stay safe and how to plan your trip. Every first participation begins with a personal conversation with Thiago.
