“A round of golf - like an Ayahuasca ceremony - is an adventure; are you ready? ”

The game of golf differs from many mainstream sports in that there are no anticipatory actions per se. Nothing is coming at you at a high speed that you must react to. No one is going to chase, tackle, or tag you. You never have to fight for the ball. It's just you, the club in your hand, a stationary golf ball, the course, yet perhaps most harrowing of all -- your thoughts, feelings, emotions and expectations - often the most daunting obstacles standing between you, and a lower score.

In this way, the sport represents so much more: It's about staring down and managing dysfunctional behaviors, attitudes and mindsets, largely buried in the subconscious. In a peaceful, park-like setting (the golf course) - one that ought to be meditative and relaxing - that stroll from the 1st tee to the 18th green can become a jungle full of doubt, despair and anxiety.

This is where Ayahuasca comes in to play… It is through the processing of past negative experiences, traumas and detrimental thought patterns, and the building of fresh, more functional ones, that golfers may find their way to fulfilling life and golf goals. A new path towards performance, on and off the links.

The merging of golf and Ayahuasca for this retreat was conceived by GOLF.com Top 100 Instructor and PGA Master Professional, Christopher Smith. His goal? To provide technical, on-course, and mindset guidance through his expertise as a teacher, coach and golf guide for over three decades - combined with powerful multi-sensorial plant medicine sessions - all in a safe, secure environment.

In conjunction with expert practioner and shaman Oscar Martinez, the Ayahuasca ceremonies focus on a purification process whereby old, limiting and dysfunctional thought patterns and trauma are purged out of the mind/body system; fresh, constructive and liberating insights and possibilities surface, resulting in more pleasant, positive and productive views of your golf game, and life.

The powerful Ayahuasca brew will take you to higher realms, and into depths (much like a round of golf - the ever-present peaks and valleys of emotion), buried/hidden motives, and the root cause of your issues and challenges on the golf course - regardless of how ‘stuck’ and powerless you may feel like you are, in your endless loop of disappointment, frustration or anger

Ayahuasca therapies have been used successfully to improve mental functions, mood, mindfulness and even addictions, which often have their origins in emotions and trauma. From a golf standpoint, the medicine guides the player to a kinder, more compassionate and forgiving space within them, helping to silence the inner critic, judge and perfectionist.

At the end of the day, the game of golf - like an Ayahuasca ceremony - is an adventure. Different each and every time, where expectations must be tempered - if not eliminated entirely. Intentions reign; expect nothing; be prepared for anything, and everything. Most importantly: understand that the game owes you nothing, and its greatest performers are masters of acknowledgement, acceptance, and adjustment.
