Touch a light to read what people share after walking this path with us.
From the moment I signed up, I was given clear instructions on the preliminary process and a good explanation of the ceremony. Through their questionnaire and intake you notice that they work very carefully, so that you can enter the journey as safely as possible.
On the day itself a warm welcome from the guides. A safe space is created by making clear agreements, but also leaving room for fun and celebration.
Francisca do RosarioA highly experienced team that works with great love. Metsa Noma creates a safe space, making it easier to let go.
Nina HijmansRight from the moment you enter, you feel the warmth of the loving hosts and hostesses. Their affectionate interaction with each other and with us as guests makes you feel comfortable as you embark on the (somewhat exciting) journey.
Their collective singing is incredibly beautiful. You sense their attention and love at every stage of being together. Nothing but praise!! Wow!
Ricky van BeekMetsa Noma, what a team, what a tribe. Even before the ceremony, during the preparations, the love, warmth and concern are already so palpable. There is always a healthy dose of tension before I enter a ceremony, and for me a bedding of trust is important. This team far exceeded that.
Each and every one of them stands so powerfully in ceremony. They hold space for each one and also for each other. I very consciously choose the sacred spaces where I can lay my head in complete confidence, and this team knew how to carry me in every way, with all the love, wisdom and patience.
I felt carried and seen at all times. And the icaros that they sing, individually and together, make the Gods dance. So grateful for the whole team, the path they are walking and that they are in sacred service.
Debelien Silva LopesA healing, beautiful, and profound experience, guided by an amazing team. Most profound experience in my life.
Brecht GerniersAlthough the journey is different each time, everything around it is always lovingly cared for. It feels like stepping into a warm bath. What sweet people. This really is my new family!
Olaf MaassMy experience at Metsa Noma in Peru was indescribable. I have felt a lot of love and gratitude and I keep bringing that feeling up again and again. As a result, life has become more colorful.
I already knew Daphne through her ceremonies in the Netherlands and therefore knew that I was in a reliable place. Not unimportant, because that is not the case everywhere. We have been looked after very well and lovingly, in terms of guidance, food and accommodation, ceremonies, rituals, before and after care.
Marloes van Brugge, dieteraI made my first journey with Metsa Noma and would recommend Metsa Noma to anyone looking for a place for Grandmother Ceremonies! The team has a lot of knowledge of and respect for the tradition, and is also incredibly open, loving and warm towards all participants.
The preparation for the ceremony, the ceremony itself and the aftermath are taken very seriously, and there is time and attention for everyone and their personal story and journey. Team Metsa Noma, thank you again and until next time!
Lotte KlompenhouwerSince joining the tribe I no longer feel alone on my path. The guidance is clear, the support is real, and the connection with others goes deep.

I joined the Tribe app mainly to look at the calendar for upcoming events. But once inside, I realized it offers much more. There are guides that help me prepare, support for integration, and a safe space to connect with other people on the same path. It started simple, but it has become something I really value.
As soon as I got in (for free) I saw how much there is inside. Clear steps, easy access, and fun too.
It feels complete!


“When you show commitment and dedication, the plants show their endless intelligence.”
A dieta with Noya Rao is a solo quest, without any doubt. Yet you will not be alone on this journey, not for the briefest of moments. You will be accompanied by and under the strict and loving guidance of the plants.
When you show commitment and dedication, they show their endless intelligence, that love truly is limitless, and they present life as it essentially wants to be lived: in flow. Special gratitude to Maestro Sany Meny, Daphne and Johnny, for their healing, wisdom and for holding space.
Hendrik Wooldrik, dietero
