The Medicine Tribe Retreats | August 2026
AUGUST 2026 EDITION
The Gathering
A Summer of Deep Remembering
A Letter from Tamara
Beloved Tribe,
This summer has been a lot.
Beautiful, intense, confronting, expansive, and at times completely unexpected. So much has moved, both here at Mother’s House and in the work we are doing together.
And I feel like this is where the real work begins.
Not in the peak experiences. Not in the ceremonies, the insights or the moments where suddenly everything makes sense. But afterwards. In how we live it. In the choices we make, the patterns we are willing to look at, and the parts of ourselves we are finally ready to meet differently.
For me, this summer has also brought me even deeper into the relationship between the work we do here and the teachings I have received from the jungle. It keeps reminding me that this path isn’t about escaping our human experience or becoming some better, more spiritual version of ourselves.
It is about becoming more ourselves.
More present. More honest. More connected to our bodies, to each other, to the Earth, and to what actually matters.
As we move out of summer and into the next chapter, there is a lot unfolding. New journeys, deeper training, our Shipibo family returning to Mother’s House, and different ways to step into this work, whether you are just beginning to explore or have been walking this path for years.
Wherever you are in that process, you are welcome.
Blessings, Tamara

Village Support Foundation
Our connection to the Shipibo village is not just ceremonial; it is a commitment to the preservation of life and culture. Every contribution goes directly to education and healthcare in the heart of the jungle.
MOTHER'S HOUSE FOUNDATION · PAOYHAN
169 families. A village moving to higher ground.
The Shipibo community of Pahoyan is relocating after repeated flooding. Mother's House Foundation is supporting the construction of new homes. Supporting them is not charity at a distance. It is reciprocity.
MOTHER'S HOUSE FOUNDATION
The Path is Open
We hold a fundamental belief that calling to this work & medicine is a sacred invitation, not a privilege reserved for the few. Our Foundation was created with a singular purpose: to ensure that financial thresholds never stand between a sincere heart and this work.
Whether through our supported pricing tiers or direct assistance via the Foundation, we welcome your conversation. If you feel the pull toward these circles, simply reach out. We are committed to offering an environment where resources meet intention, making the path accessible to those truly called to walk it.
September Intakes Closing
The next threshold is approaching. Our September program pathways are nearly at capacity. This is the moment to commit to your evolution.
SEPTEMBER STARTS HERE
You don't need all the answers. You need the next honest step.
September feels like the beginning of a different chapter here. Wherever you enter, enter honestly. Blessings, Tamara and the team
