Master Plan was not born from a concept, a brand, or a business idea. It was born from faith.
Its name came to me as a truth — not intellectual, but visceral. Something I felt, remembered, and could no longer ignore. When I first heard the call of Mama Ayahuasca, I was already working as a holistic therapist. That background offered me tools, yes — but nothing truly prepares us for the kind of transformation that the forest awakens. As I walked the path of ancestral medicine, I was guided through a deep unraveling. Everything I thought I knew about myself began to fall away. It was uncomfortable. Raw. Sacred.
But through that surrender, something extraordinary happened: I remembered who I am. And I saw, perhaps for the first time, that nothing in my life had ever happened to me. It had all happened for me. That shift changed everything.
It revealed a truth that had always been there — that behind the chaos and the beauty, there is order. There is intelligence. There is a Master Plan. This invisible design — the one that places every person, every challenge, every lesson exactly where it belongs — became the foundation of my purpose.
Master Plan is not a retreat center. It is a sacred space. A remembrance. A prayer in action.
Here, we do not see the medicines of the forest as alternatives. They are the original healing — the voice of the Earth, rising within us, calling us back to truth.
Through the union of ancestral plant medicines, holistic therapies, and spiritual tools, we create retreats that go beyond ceremony. Each journey is a portal — one that invites you to meet yourself again with compassion, depth, and reverence.
Our team is formed by experienced holistic therapists, facilitators, and ceremonial guardians who share the same devotion to healing and awakening. Each professional brings a unique medicine — yet all are aligned in purpose and guided under my leadership, working together to ensure that every participant is held with safety, respect, and a deep sense of spiritual integrity.
Since 2024, we have held these journeys in the mountains of Spain and in the heart of the Colombian jungle.
Each soul that crossed our path transformed us in return. There is no greater honor than witnessing someone remember who they are.
This is our mission: To help you remember. Not by teaching or fixing — but by holding space for you to return to your own essence.
You are a child of the Earth. A spark of the Divine, briefly playing the game of being human, just for the joy of remembering that you are love.
Love is the force behind all of this. It is the only truth that remains when everything else falls away. It is the highest expression of the Master Plan.
And if something stirred in your heart as you read these words, perhaps it is your own memory rising — whispering:
You are ready.
With deep love and gratitude,
Samantha Silvany is a Brazilian medicine woman, shamanic ceremony guide, and holistic therapist who has been guiding profound processes of emotional and spiritual transformation for over five years. Her work is grounded in lived experience, embodied knowledge, and a deep commitment to safety, ethics, and conscious integration.
Born in Brazil, Samantha carries a mixed ancestral lineage that directly shapes the way she holds space and understands healing. Through her mother, she descends from Portuguese ancestry; through her father, from African and Indigenous American roots. This convergence of lineages informs her sensitivity, her respect for cultural depth, and her understanding of healing as something relational, contextual, and inseparable from history, body, and spirit.
A best-selling author, she bridges ancestral wisdom with contemporary therapeutic frameworks through an integrative and discerning approach. Her work includes energy healing, Jungian psychology, family constellations, Hermetic Kabbalah, multidimensional Hebrew pendulum work, shamanic practices, somatic experiencing, mindfulness-based practices, systemic tarot, and embodied awareness. These modalities are not applied as isolated techniques, but carefully woven into coherent and responsive processes, always attuned to the emotional, psychological, and spiritual reality of each individual.
Samantha has completed the Healing Trauma and Addiction professional training with Dr. Gabor Maté and is an ongoing student of the Compassionate Inquiry® approach. This foundation deeply informs her trauma-aware, nervous-system-sensitive integration, allowing her to accompany intense inner processes with clarity, containment, and respect for each person’s pace, boundaries, and autonomy.
Her work is recognized for the creation of safe, well-structured, and culturally conscious ceremonial and therapeutic spaces. She does not orient her practice toward spiritual bypassing or peak experiences, but toward tangible inner outcomes — integration, self-awareness, and long-term transformation — held with integrity, responsibility, and grounded leadership.
If someone had told me ten years ago that I would become a holistic therapist and a guide for shamanic ceremonies, I would not have believed it. And I want to be honest with you: this was not the life I carefully planned. It was the life that emerged when I finally stopped trying to control everything — and began listening.
If you are here now, it is because you want to feel my presence, understand my path, and sense whether your body and soul feel safe resonating with mine before joining a retreat guided by me. I respect that deeply.
So I will share my story with you — not as a performance, but as truth.
This is not something to skim.
Read slowly. Let it land.
I grew up within an emotionally complex family system, shaped by silence, invisible loyalties, and patterns that moved quietly through generations. For many years, I carried emotional weights that did not belong solely to me.
Through a systemic and trauma-aware lens, I now understand this clearly:
I was not broken.
I was conditioned.
And many of my so-called “failures” were my nervous system doing its best to protect me.
Before I had the language for any of this, I had writing.
I began writing as a way to survive my inner world — to regulate emotions I could not yet name. What started as something intimate and instinctive slowly became a bridge. My words resonated. Women from many places began telling me they felt seen — not instructed or fixed, but deeply recognized.
Writing gave me a voice before I knew how to speak my truth out loud.
And through that voice, a community formed — today, more than 400,000 people who connect with my reflections on healing, emotional truth, and spirituality.
In 2019, at the age of 27, I published my first book, 500 Dias Sem Você, which became a bestseller. It was followed by Verdades Difíceis de Engolir, published by Editora Planeta, and Ame-se Como Você Gostaria de Ser Amada.
These books were not written from theory.
They were born from lived experience — pain metabolized into insight, and a deep desire to help others reconnect with themselves.
That same year, guided more by intuition than certainty, I moved to Barcelona.
What I did not know then was that this move would become a threshold — the beginning of a more grounded and conscious path. Living abroad created distance from familiar patterns and gave me the space to meet myself more honestly.
It was there that my therapeutic path truly began to take form.
I immersed myself in holistic and therapeutic studies: Jungian psychology, family constellations, hermetic Kabbalah, tarot, cabalistic numerology, energy healing, ritual work, universal laws, and embodied awareness. My work as a holistic therapist emerged gradually, built on study, practice, and direct experience with people and their emotional processes.
Then, after years of inner work and psychological inquiry, the call to sacred medicines arrived.
My relationship with Ayahuasca was never driven by curiosity or escape. It came with maturity, responsibility, and preparation. The medicine did not replace what I had studied — it deepened it.
She revealed the energetic body, the ancestral unconscious, and the systemic roots of emotional patterns. She taught humility, accountability, and truth.
And above all, she made one thing unmistakably clear:
Healing does not happen in the ceremony.
Healing happens in the integration.
The medicine opens the door —
but you must walk through it.
As my work deepened, so did my understanding of trauma. I completed the Healing Trauma and Addiction training with Dr. Gabor Maté and became an ongoing student of the Compassionate Inquiry® methodology. This shifted everything.
Trauma awareness brought structure, safety, and nervous-system intelligence to my work. It allowed me to hold depth without overwhelm, intensity without harm, and transformation without spiritual bypassing.
With time, all the pieces came together.
Not as a method —
but as an embodied synthesis.
From the integration of therapeutic knowledge, trauma-informed care, systemic understanding, ancestral wisdom, and sacred medicines, the Master Plan Retreats were born.
These retreats are not “just ceremonies.”
They are integrative journeys that bring together:
• psychological and systemic understanding
• emotional regulation and somatic grounding
• trauma-aware facilitation
• energy reading and spiritual alignment
• holistic therapeutic practices
• ancestral medicines served with ethics and respect
• careful preparation and post-ceremony integration
• a container held with safety, clarity, and deep presence
This is not theory.
This is the path I lived — and the path I now guide with responsibility and integrity.
My mission is not to promise light.
My mission is to help you integrate your own.
I guide the path —
but you are the medicine.
If you feel the call, trust that your journey has already begun.
And if you choose to walk this path with me, it will be my honor to hold this sacred space as you return to your truest essence.
I met Samantha in Barcelona on a retreat with Master Plant and a Mama Ayavaska journey. A journey that was the most importantly for me and made a profound impact... read more and gave me the guidance that I seek. Mama Aya have been calling for me for years. And it wasn’t until Master Plant passed me by in social media that I felt this is the right time and with right team. Wow, what a team.. you feel like my family. After the deep journey, I knew I wanted more help to navigate with everything that has been visible for me through the journey. The Tarot session with Sam, here amazing wisdom and love to be the pure connection with spirit gave me all that I needed. All my questions got answered.. 🙏🪶🦅 I am so thankful and blessed for this reading that already has shown me that everything you said has happened.. even if time doesn’t exist … you gave me the insight and inspiration and courage to keep moving forward with more grounding and understanding. I am beyond grateful for everything and when I arrived home you also gave me the best energies cleaning and was helping removing the negativity and karmic blocks that was preventing me to be free and receiving abundance. You are a gift to this world and I can’t wait until we meet again, with you - the team and Mama Aya. With all my love, Ann-Loou -m💫
