Weekend Retreat Program
3-5 March 2023
Would you prefer to try psilocybin with a group?
We offer a unique weekend retreat experience with
3 facilitators and a maximum of 8 participants.
Going on this journey together can be mutually supportive, and offer a sense of recognition and community. Sharing insights can help to deepen and to anchor your process.
What does the program entail?
This weekend journey takes place in the presence and support of facilitators together with a group of people who are going through this experience too. We always have a high facilitator to participant ratio which is always below 3:1.
Sharing your story with the group can be so supportive and lead to new insights. Listening to what they are going through can in turn inspire your own process. Hearing about the experiences of others can also be reassuring and contribute to a sense of belonging and acceptance of the process.
The retreat program is carefully designed to help you feel comfortable, set your intention, resource yourself and learn about the workings of the psyche. Towards the end of the retreat, we support you to integrate the experience and prepare you to meet the outside world.
Location
Our psychedelic retreats take place in the Netherlands where psilocybin truffles are legal.
The venue is in a quiet location and in a natural setting.
You will feel right at home!
Facilitation
Group sessions with 8-10 participants are facilitated by a professional team to ensure safety, individual attention and care.
Retreats are led by Nic Burnand and Sarah Dekker, both certified CNVC trainers and IFS Practitioners and supported by experienced assistants.
Food
Expect tasty, fresh, organic and vegetarian meals.
On the psilocybin ceremony day there will be an element of fasting and feasting.
