Begin Your Journey
A place for transformational experiences
Hidden within the lush jungles of Tulum, Pixan Sanctuary is devoted to healing, self-discovery, and profound personal transformation. We offer thoughtfully curated medicine journeys that honor the unique path of every individual.
About Pixan Sanctuary
Pixan is the Mayan word for ‘spirit’ or ‘soul.’ Our sanctuary was created as a place where people can step away from everyday life and reconnect with the deepest parts of themselves. Surrounded by the jungle and built with intention, Pixan Sanctuary provides a peaceful environment where healing unfolds naturally.
Healing is not about escaping yourself—it is about remembering who you are beneath fear, trauma, conditioning, and expectation.
We believe transformation happens when transformational experiences are supported by skilled guidance, compassionate presence, and meaningful integration.
Our Experiences
Our Bufo and Amazonian Medicine experiences are centered around safety, integrity, and compassionate care. We create a supportive and respectful environment where each person can explore their process at their own pace, with experienced guidance and individualized care throughout.
Bufo Kaan
Our guided Bufo Alvarius (5-MeO-DMT) ceremonies are designed to support deep inner exploration, expanded awareness, and meaningful transformation through preparation, ceremony, and integration.
Amazonian Medicine
Traditional Amazonian plant medicine ceremonies in an intimate four-day retreat immersed in the wild beauty of Sian Ka’an, emphasizing preparation, rest, and integration.
The Sanctuary
Hidden within the Mayan jungle of Muyil, just 20 minutes from Tulum, Pixan Sanctuary is a secluded retreat centered around a private cenote and natural cave. Surrounded by tropical forest and native wildlife, the sanctuary offers a rare opportunity to step away from the outside world and reconnect with nature.
Designed to exist in harmony with its surroundings, Pixan is an intimate and peaceful setting for ceremony, reflection, and meaningful inner work- a place to slow down, turn inward, and experience the stillness and beauty of the land.

Testimonials
“Bufo has dissolved me before—sometimes painfully, sometimes into the bliss of absolute oneness. I know what it means, experientially, to be the Eternal Now. But the real work begins when that sublime state fades, when life returns to the ordinary. Perhaps Bufo shows us the truth—presence, completion, infinite wholeness—but it is up to me to recognize it in the mundane as well as the ecstatic.“
“The last time I sat with Bufo was pure surrender—surrendering even the idea of surrender. Every thought, every self-reference slipped away like water, leaving nothing to hold on to. In that letting go, there was a sweet freedom: life exactly as it is, without judgment, comparison, or even the faintest urge to change.“
“For me, Bufo is a powerful pointer, a cosmic embrace, an acceptance so deep it erases the need to know or want anything more. I will sit with Bufo again, out of love for the medicine and the relationship. But the greater medicine lies in living what it reveals—integrating what already is, into what already is.”
“Divine. Ineffable. Whoa. All fit and none can capture the power of toad medicine. What a gift Sacred Heart Sonora is providing. A profound first sitting with Bufo, touching the other side. Most recently, absolute dissolution of self and oneness. While the experience can connect with the divine, the integration into daily life is the true gift and the real work. Wise words from a friend for my first time sitting with Bufo – Lean into it.
I wonder what the world could look like if more of humanity could touch this side of… whatever we want to call it. If this calls to you, answer the call.”
“This experience fundamentally changed the way I relate to reality. It offered a deep remembering—that I am not my body—and an embodied sense that each moment is a gift. What I encountered was humbling, peaceful, and profoundly grounding. I arrived feeling stuck in a long search for answers and a desire to fix myself. Instead, I was given a powerful shift in perspective—one that opened a sense of inner freedom and connection that continues to shape how I live. The environment was beautiful and thoughtfully held, and the facilitator’s presence was calm, compassionate, and deeply respectful of the medicine. I felt safe, supported, and guided with integrity throughout the experience. I am deeply grateful for this opportunity. It has left me with a lasting sense of clarity, trust, and quiet confidence that I carry into everyday life.”
