Inside an unassuming house in a small, nondescript village north of Madrid, 18 people are gathered in a room lined with mattresses.
It looks like a giant sleepover.
Only the carefully positioned blue buckets give away the true purpose of the evening.
Tonight an ayahuasca session will take place and, with uncontrollable vomiting invariably part of the proceedings, the buckets are a necessary precaution.
Ayahuasca, also known as "yage," is a mind-altering concoction made from two Amazonian plants: the Banisteriopsis caapi vine and the leaves of the chacruna plant.
It's generally taken in the Amazon jungle as part of a ritualistic ceremony, guided by a shaman singing traditional songs called icaros.

In the past many Westerners have flocked to ayahuasca centers in the jungle as it's reported to have beneficial effects on conditions such as depression and anxiety, as well as aiding people to quit serious addictions.
However, outside of the Amazon ayahuasca has an ambiguous legal status.
Chacruna contains dimethyltryptamine, or DMT, a naturally occurring psychedelic compound.
Its use is restricted by many countries and can be illegal to possess (including in the United States), supply or prescribe.
However, since 2013, ayahuasca has had an open presence outside of the Amazon, largely through the work of Ayahuasca International, a company offering retreats across the globe where the substance is consumed.
