Bufo Alvarius Initiation · 4-Days · Malaga
With Anna and Bruno
November 5 - 8, 2026
REBIRTH INTO LIFE
An invitation to presence, awareness and human connection
We are Bruno and Anna, the people behind BRUANA, a shared vision of creating spaces for remembrance, presence and meaningful connection.
This four-day immersive training is an invitation to step away from everyday life, slow down, and explore the relationship between awareness, inner experience, and the way we accompany others.
Our approach brings together knowledge, practical experience, reflective practices and human connection. We believe that learning is more than receiving information: it means being present, listening deeply, communicating clearly, and recognising the individual needs of each person.
Throughout the training, we will explore the origins and wider cultural context of Bufo Alvarius traditions, the importance of preparation and a conscious environment, and approaches to supporting people through intense or unfamiliar experiences.
What we will explore
**Origins and ancestral traditions**
Explore the origins, history and wider context of the traditions surrounding this work, alongside perspectives on sacred plants and Andean shamanism.
**Conscious facilitation and preparation**
Learn about intention, communication, awareness, and the importance of establishing clear boundaries and a supportive environment.
**Presence, music and accompaniment**
Explore intentional songs, listening, and ways of responding sensitively to different individual experiences.
**Integration and reflection**
Discover approaches to creating space for reflection, integration, and meaningful human connection after challenging or significant experiences.
**Complementary practices**
The program includes meditation, breathwork, pranayama, embodied movement, voice expression, inner awareness, sacred smoke traditions, and explorations of vital energy and intuition.
**Learning together**
This is an opportunity to exchange experiences, ask questions, learn from one another, and develop greater awareness of the human dimensions of facilitation.
**The retreat setting**
Our retreat space in the Málaga region is intended to offer a pause from everyday routines and room for connection, learning and reflection.
Over these days, we will create a shared environment in which participants can bring their questions, experiences and curiosity, while respecting individual needs and boundaries.
Come with curiosity. Come with questions. Come ready to listen, learn and meet one another with openness and respect.
