Who are we

Soul Return was born from a profound personal journey of healing, loss, and rediscovery. Founder Bas spent years navigating dark paths of addiction, loss, and self-rejection, but through plant medicines, ceremonies, and inner work, he found his way back to himself. From this experience, a calling grew: to create a safe, loving space where others can find their own path to healing and awareness.

Trust, respect and ceremony

At Soul Return, we guide you through a process of trust, respect, and ceremony. We work with sacred plant medicines like Ayahuasca and ChocoBliss, supported by music, rituals, and a deep connection with nature. Each ceremony is tailored to the group or individual, allowing your journey to unfold in a safe and respectful way.

We believe that every person already holds the key to their own healing. Our role is to guide, support, and remind you of who you truly are, from root to crown, from darkness to dawn. Whether you come for healing, clarity, or spiritual deepening: at Soul Return, you'll find a place to come home to yourself.

My path with Ayahuasca

My Journey with Ayahuasca My first encounter with ayahuasca was a turning point in my life. I entered with a backpack full of pain, loss, and unresolved emotions—and left with a glimpse of who I truly am. It wasn't an easy journey: ayahuasca showed me the depths of my grief and the walls around my heart, but also the light that always resides beyond. From that moment on, I felt a deep calling to work with this sacred medicine. Over ten years ago, I began my Ayahuasquero training. During that time, I learned not only how to work with the plants but also how to create a safe, loving, and respectful space for deep transformation. During this training, I met Iria, a fellow participant. From day one, we felt a strong connection, and ever since, we've shared a friendship and a shared dedication to working with plant medicines. I have fully committed myself to this path, leading ceremonies for years, learning from experienced shamans, and continually pursuing my own inner work.

Over the past few years, I've guided over 1,000 people on their journey with ayahuasca and other plant medicines. Each ceremony taught me anew about the power of surrender, trust, and opening the heart. Today, I guide people not from theory, but from lived experience. I know what it feels like to go through the dark, and I know there's always a way back to light, love, and connection. That's what I want to offer you: a place where you feel safe to let go, heal, and come home to yourself again.

Ayahuasquero – Musical accompanist

My path as a facilitator was born from my own deep transformation with ayahuasca and other sacred plant medicines. Over ten years ago, I began my training as an Ayahuasquero, and since then, I've spent thousands of hours in the ceremony room and guided over 1,000 people on their inner journeys. Music plays a crucial role in this. During ceremonies, I connect with the energy of the moment through guitar, piano, drums, and vocals. For me, music is not just an expression, but a medicine that opens hearts, stirs emotions, and facilitates deep layers of healing. My strength lies in creating a space where people feel completely safe to open up, let go, and transform. I know what it feels like to go through the dark, and I know there is always a way back to light, love, and connection.

Spaceholder - ceremoniebegeleider

My teenage years were full of challenges. I often felt depressed by past events and desperately searched for a way to feel better. My life felt like a silent black-and-white movie: empty, flat, and devoid of joy.

During my first ayahuasca ceremony, I relived an old trauma. But this time, I was able to look at it differently: with gentleness, understanding, and empathy. That moment changed everything. It gave me the opportunity to heal that painful part and give it a place. Suddenly, my life shifted from black and white to a colorful film with sound. I began to feel and see beauty again—smile, nature, small moments of pure happiness.

I've always been a sensitive person, but in the past, that sensitivity was often burdened by negative experiences. By clearing these heavy burdens, I've come closer to my true self. My intuition has become stronger, and I now have a deep understanding of people.

This allows me to sense precisely what someone needs during ceremonies and guide them with love and gentleness. Because I know firsthand what it's like to blossom from darkness, I want everyone to experience the same transformation: from surviving to truly living.
