Return to Balance

JoLyn is a multi-passionate wellness practitioner whose path has woven together food, plants, and holistic health. Her journey began in 2018 after a kidney infection led her to question a sole reliance on Western medicine and explore alternative approaches to healing. This curiosity brought her into fermentation, foundational Ayurveda, and formal training through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition (IIN).

In 2019, moving to Peru’s Sacred Valley deepened her connection to medicinal plants and plant-based wisdom. By 2022, she shifted into catering for holistic retreats, cooking intentional, local, organic meals and integrating kitchen herbalism—where food becomes medicine. Today, alongside her work in the kitchen, JoLyn is deeply passionate about the body’s innate intelligence and communication. She is currently completing a certification in iridology, a practice that offers insight into physical health, inherited patterns, emotional states, strengths, and vulnerabilities. At the Return to Balance retreat, JoLyn is excited to share practical, accessible tools for lasting health and meaningful transformation.

Andrea is the founder of Casa Suyana, a boutique wellness and natural spa space dedicated to holistic well-being and permaculture education. Built from the ground up, Casa Suyana reflects her commitment to earth-based living, natural building, herbal practices, and sustainable food systems.

With years of lived experience creating land-based, human-centered projects, Andrea’s work weaves together conscious nourishment, ecological living, and nervous-system regulation to support deep rest and reconnection with the body and the natural world. Since arriving in the Andes in 2016, she has immersed herself in folk herbalism, permaculture, and plant-based healing practices rooted in Andean and Amazonian lineages. With over five years of experience holding space for retreats and restorative experiences, Andrea facilitates environments that invite people to slow down, reset, and return to balance through simple, intentional practices aligned with nature and daily ritual.

Satya is a clinical herbalist, 500-hour yoga teacher, and transformational space holder whose path has carried her from the mountains of Colorado into deep relationship with the Andes of Peru. Her work is rooted in a simple intention: creating space to return to nature and invite deep remembrance.

Trained in Western Vitalist Herbalism and Eastern Ayurvedic Medicine, Satya supports people in understanding the story their body is telling and learning how to work with it—rather than against it—to restore balance, vitality, and trust in the body’s innate intelligence. She approaches detoxification as a relational, daily practice that emerges through alignment with nature’s rhythms.

At the heart of her work is the restoration of relationship—between human and earth, body and spirit. Through herbal education, teaching, and space holding, Satya empowers people to walk their own paths with confidence, inviting deep listening, slowing down, and reconnection with the natural world.
