Josep Vila Tronchoni

He was born in 1951 in Sabadell (Barcelona). He studies a technical degree and becomes a young businessman, until his health problems lead him to seek a solution that Western medicine cannot seem to offer. He thus comes into contact with traditional Amazonian medicine and the knowledge of the so-called sacred plants, which means for him not only his personal healing but also the discovery of his abilities to help others as a healer.

Currently he dedicates himself entirely to working with “master plants”, as he likes to say, since his purpose in using them is to awaken the inner teacher that each person carries within them. This work with plants has a double aspect: healing and knowledge. In short, find (and let it happen) the path that is unique to each person in life.

In Spain he guides work groups linked to him in a completely free and spontaneous way, without any type of formal organization. He periodically travels to Ireland and Austria, where there are also working groups with which he collaborates closely. In addition, each year he makes at least two trips to the Peruvian Amazon, where he collaborates with the masters who are the custodians of this ancient spiritual tradition, in the company of people who wish to have the experience of working with the master plants in their own place of origin.

He is certified as a facilitator in Holotropic Breathwork by Dr. Stanislav Grof. He is a specialist in therapies in non-ordinary states of consciousness, addictions, depressive states, etc.

Currently, he works in Spain and part of Europe, leading personal growth and addiction groups through the Amazonian Master plants.

Jose Vila Tronchoni - Esperanza Lopez - Franki Vila

A combination of Holotropic Breathwork and working with Masterplants for advanced selfdiscovery. Please mint this. is a 7 days retreat like diets in the rainforest ! You may not get any sugar, salt and meat.

This 7-day, 6-night workshop integrates Holotropic Breathwork with shamanic practices in a harmonious and integrative manner, facilitating a profound healing experience. Following the tradition of an "amazon diet," participants will engage in the consumption of Tobacco and Luz de la Selva, a blend of 8 different master plants. Working with these master plants occurs within a ritual context, emphasizing the intentions of cleansing, healing, and gaining insight, thereby fostering a deep connection with oneself.

The incorporation of plant work supports and integrates the experiences gained from breathwork in a gentle and cohesive manner. 

"FATHER TOBACCO" Tobacco, a Master Plant sourced from the Amazon, seeks out ancient emotional imprints stored within the body over time. Its purpose is to cleanse and purify on both physical and emotional levels, preparing the body and mind for the Taita Selva. 

"LUZ DE LA SELVA (LIGHT OF THE JUNGLE)" Luz de la Selva is a combination of 8 master plants from the Peruvian Amazon, with a mission to rebalance and purify at an energetic level, addressing negative thought patterns. Luz de la Selva is typically used in a dietary regimen spanning 4 days. This plant mixture operates on two fronts: On the psychic-emotional plane, it facilitates clarity in dreams, offering insights into past, present, and future experiences with a heightened level of understanding. It serves as a guide in dreams, revealing forgotten moments of the past and illuminating entire life periods. It embodies knowledge in a fluid state, guiding individuals to realms of wisdom and light. Luz de la Selva aids in emotional healing, warming cold hearts and dissipating anger, fostering connections with others and oneself. On the physical plane, it effectively addresses bodily conditions such as cold extremities, poor circulation, and numbness. Rich in vitamins and minerals, it provides potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and tonic properties, benefiting various health conditions including anemia, cholesterol, menstrual issues, fever, and more.

Franki Vila Lopez Born in 1980 in Sabadell, Spain, his early fascination with motors led him to study motor racing. Despite a successful career in multinational corporations, his longing for deeper fulfillment grew. A pivotal moment arrived when he immersed himself in traditional Amazonian medicine, undertaking a transformative journey guided by master plants. Encouraged by his father, he embarked on a solitary retreat, drinking Ayahuasca and discovering a newfound commitment to healing.

Attending the International Congress of Sintergética in Cancún further fueled his quest for knowledge. Inspired by Dr. Jorge Carvajal, he delved into "Hands to Heal" therapy, blending various manual medicine techniques. His journey took him to Peru and Brazil, where he deepened his understanding of plant medicine and spiritual practices.

®



Holotropic Breathwork® is a powerful technique for self-healing and self-exploration allowing for greater self-understanding, expansion of self-identity and access to the roots of emotional and psychosomatic challenges one might face. Holotropic Breathwork® comes from the Greek words ‘holos’ (whole) and ‘trepein’ (going to) meaning moving towards wholeness.
