"My partner and I attended Ek Lum Tulum's plant-medicine assisted couple retreat, and it was an incredible experience. We were both going through a difficult time in our relationship, and we were hoping that the retreat would help us to reconnect and heal. We were not disappointed. The plant medicine helped us to open up to each other in ways that we never thought possible, and we were able to have some truly profound conversations. We also learned a lot about ourselves and our relationship, and we left the retreat feeling stronger and more connected than ever before. We would highly recommend this retreat to any couple who is looking to improve their relationship."
