Our mission is to provide a safe, honest and sincere space for people of all walks of life to come and heal. We believe in the combined power of plant medicine, community and emotional vulnerability. These key elements are the fertile soil for beautiful transformation to occur in our lives!
Maharani Medicine first opened its doors in 2018– since then, we have served at over 110 retreats. We are proud to be a culturally diverse hub for seekers of all kinds. We are honored to be of service to anyone with a desire to grow, learn and heal regardless of background, age or creed.
Here are some things that set us apart from other groups:
Our Retreats are for you if…
We are a “mobile ministry”. This means that we split our time between Upstate New York and the high desert of Arizona. We feel the call to be in service to both sides of this country. We also hope to someday soon travel to other states and offer our retreats in more locations.
In Arizona, we are hosted by community members on their properties. For our New York offerings, we have a beautiful property in the woods that we hold our retreats in. Because we host small retreats, we don’t have the need to have a large retreat center. This means that our accommodations are humble and communally shared.
For more information on our ceremonies and community visit us www.maharanimedicine.com
Please message us if you’d like more information about our retreats or upcoming schedule. We are always available to talk about this work if you have any questions. Thanks so much for reading and many blessings!
Our vision is to become compassionate, pure, healthy, and unconditionally loving people. Through prayer, meditation and the foundational support of our ancestors and their medicines, we humbly walk this path.
In a world shrouded by illusion, our Medicine bursts through the shadows as a shining light. We call upon the guidance of our sacred plant teachers to shed hardened layers around our heart built by the suffering we have endured.
Through dance and song, we shatter resistance keeping us from a righteous and all pervading Spiritual Relationship with life. Our ancient Amazonian Medicine combined with communal celebration yields profound healing for our selves and the entire planet.
We strongly believe in the Great Spirit that dwells within all living beings. This Spirit is alive, deeply caring and calling us home to the Present Moment. We embrace all religions and creeds. All roads lead to the same One, loving and ever-present Being.
Our Mission is to provide a sacred container, as well as education and support for those who are called to Plant Medicine. Ceremony is a state of mind that can embraced every single moment of our lives. We seek to help others cultivate this way of being through integrating spiritual experience.
We also believe that human connection is a powerful gateway to the soul. Maharani Medicine offers a community space for all people to share and grow.
We honor ourselves by truly integrating our Plant Medicine journeys. In choosing to remember Love on the daily, we help the world heal. It is our prayer that we can support people, whether they are preparing for ceremony, sitting in ceremony or integrating afterward. We want every person we meet to thrive and find great internal success. We invite you to join us!

September 20, 2022 at 1:33 pmI find showing love to this space by means of writing a review to be an overwhelming task. There are no words I can use to describe how deeply I feel for Maharani.
Maharani, and all of its components, carry the medicine with the highest intention, integrity, compassion, and safety. This space contains all the proper ingredients necessary to reach for the potency of all that medicine can be.
The medicine lives within Maharani in grate abundance. Eliana, and her music, compliment and work with Grandmother Aya and the medicine undeniably and irrevocably. Her deep, unwavering connection to the medicine,
and to Spirit, guides us to new depths of ourselves, our connection to all, and our healing.
Marharani also attracts the most genuine, humble, and heart centered people I have ever met. We come together in ceremony and medince, and we leave in ceremony, in medicine, and so much more; including in family. I am beyond grateful that I get to call this beautiful community my family.
I have had the privilege of sitting and facilitating within Maharani for about three years. During this time I have witnessed countless miracles transpire within myself, others, and within our community.
After years of suffering mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually, I have been able to take back and reshape my life in ways I previously did not know how. Through the medicine of Maharani I have been able to work through an immeasurable amount of trauma and abuse that I have endured. With a full heart, and teary eyes, I write this review as a much happier, healthier, sovereign, and connected, woman standing in my power, in comparison to who I was when I first walked through the gates of Maharani. Rightfully so, I give so much credit to Maharani, and to the medicine of this space and its people.
From all of my being, I deeply give gratitude Great Spirit, to the Medicine, to Eliana, and to Maharani. Thank you, Thank you, Thank You! May you continue to guide us Home.

September 20, 2022 at 8:48 amI met so many wonderful people in the two ceremonies I have done at Maharani that I have become friends with. I learned through them & Eliana that different Ayahuasca medicine carriers hold ceremony and serve in their own way based on their teachings & wisdom they carry.
I hope in my review you feel my words and my experiences.
I was blessed to have completed Eliana’s 3 month online spiritual immersion program before my first ceremony because I have never done any plant medicine before.
It really prepared me to be ready for the experience. You need to prepare.
When I found out Eliana was moving to Arizona I signed up for one of her last ceremonies here in NY because I don’t know if I would trust anyone else with serving me Ayahuasca and holding sacred space the way she and her facilitators hold it. Her facilitators are phenomenal because they are beautiful souls and a reflection of her and hence a reflection of me (as I became aware of this through the process).
I never felt alone and only needed to ask for something and someone was always available whether it was to fill my water jug, get me a new puck bucket or walk me to the bathroom. The integration part of the weekend is Amazing on so many levels. I have so many experiences that I am grateful for. I trust her with my life and so I trust her with the medicine she carry’s within her and how she serves. I needed Hapeh to help purge 2 of the four times because what needed to be purged was not leaving without a fight (family lineage & spells). She sang, drummed, burned sage & palo Santo and played music and everything she did was in Divine Timing. I could tell you story after story of this.
If you are new to Ayahuasca like I was was…..Eliana is the best human being. She is honest and transparent and still sees her teacher from Peru. Like anyone in this position you will find someone who has something unpleasant to say about her. She Carrie’s herself with integrity and never gossips about anyone. She lives what she stands for.
My review is honest, transparent & from the heart. All I know is I went into my experiences with an open heart and open mind ready & determined to expose what needed clearing that I couldn’t get to by any other means (therapy, reiki, shamanism) and I received exactly what I asked for and what I didn’t know I needed until it was shown to me.

Thank you
From the bottom
Of my soul;
A Big Heart Out,
To Eliana for carrying
This medicine
With such integrity.
I feel like I’ve found
Myself in awe with
The vastness and versatility
Of her practice
And connection
To this medicine.
I welcome you home.

September 16, 2022 at 8:48 pmMMC is a space I’ve been blessed to spend many nights at. My life has changed in unimaginable ways thanks to Eliana & her work. The space is always safe and we’re always cared for. Eli & her team of facilitators are very present and always leading with compassion & love. The small circles really allow everyone to bond and be seen, we show up strangers but often leave family. The music played certainly helps to guide you & push you deeper into your experience. The musical talent there is incredible. This space has changed my & so many others lives & I am forever grateful for it

September 16, 2022 at 7:48 pmMy husband and I attended a medicine circle led by Eliana Maharani at her spiritual retreat in New York this summer and we can’t speak highly enough of Eliana and her facilitators. She creates such a beautiful, sacred, and safe space before and during medicine and her incredible talent of bringing forth the most healing music medicine I’ve ever heard was the highlight of working with this beautiful medicine woman. It was my husband’s first time in ceremony and he, to this day, has still not stopped talking about what an incredible experience he had and it was beautiful to see him open up his heart and just let his emotions flow without worrying about appearing weak. Eliana and her facilitators at Maharani Medicine Circles are the most caring people I’ve ever met, they go the extra mile to make sure you feel safe and cared for and they are right there to help you with your needs throughout your stay, not just during ceremony. I know that it’s not always easy in today’s hectic world to make strong connections with people when you’ve just met them, but my husband and I are certain that we left there after our weekend was over with lifelong friends. I give my strongest endorsement to Eliana, et al, they are doing the most incredible job of bringing healing to hearts that have longed to heal, and I’m very glad that I was intuitively guided to work with her and her team. My husband and I have the deepest gratitude for everything that she has brought to our lives and we are thrilled knowing that we will have opportunities in the future to work with her again, and I would definitely be interested in an all girls weekend too.
