Holos Global
Inner exploration, thoughtfully hosted
San Salvador is the urban point of departure for Holos Global’s wider vision of retreats that bring inner exploration into conversation with the natural world. Its programming places experiential plant medicine at the center, alongside thoughtful hospitality and an integrated approach to wellbeing. Rather than following a named meditation lineage, the retreat philosophy draws on modern and ancient wellness models. Samantha is listed as a guide. Food is part of the experience, with locally sourced, organic and regeneratively grown ingredients used where possible. Dietary choices include vegan, vegetarian, pescetarian and meat-inclusive meals, along with gluten-free, dairy-free and nut-free options. Retreats are paid, with prices starting at USD 1,600. Ask Holos about the format, dates and preparation for a specific program before booking, particularly if you are new to plant-medicine work.
