A rite of passage.
Perhaps you feel like you’re at a crossroads — unsure of your next direction, stuck and restless for change, or simply longing for true inspiration in your life. And in these turbulent, shifting times, it’s natural to wonder what your place is, how your life can contribute to something that matters. You’re searching for a space to listen for that deeper guidance, to reconnect with yourself and the living world, and to remember what’s calling you forward.
If this is you, we warmly invite you to come transform, heal and rest with us. This retreat, an ancient rite of passage in a contemporary setting, supports you to meet the deeper knowing within you to rise to the surface, so you can live closer to your purpose.
In a splendid farm-turned-healing-center in the heart of Ibiza, you will explore your inner garden with mind-altering fungi under the most comfortable and safe circumstances, lovingly guided by highly experienced facilitators. This will help you reach places in yourself that are blocked by a lifetime of patterns, beliefs and conditioning. You will move your body to the rhythm of healing music, breathe yourself to freedom, nourish your system with incredibly tasty and nourishing food, explore Ibiza’s beautiful nature and heal your nervous system from old traumas.
Five days and four nights of deep inner work, personal growth, connection and wellness, and a major kickstart for mind, body and soul that can ignite a new chapter in your life.

What to expect.
A fungi ceremony
Working with mind-altering fungi within the right set and setting can be absolutely life-changing. The core of this retreat will consist of a guided fungi ceremony.

Supporting practices
During the retreat we will bring in both ancient and modern tools to help you get to the root of whichever is holding you back in life. We will be diving into deep and compassionate self-inquiry sessions, meditation and bodywork. The latter will consist of gentle yin yoga, transformational breathwork and somatic movement. You may also expect a stunning hike in nature, an invigorating sauna session and campfires under the stars.
All these practices are to support your wellbeing in the best possible way and to help you awaken and relax the body, restore the nervous system and inspire mindfulness of the body-mind-heart connection. We will gently guide your system to peel off the layers of conditioning, beliefs, insecurities and coping mechanisms that keep you from feeling safe, loved, grounded, nourished and in peace. In other words: living the life you deserve, aligned with your true Self.
Ibiza retreat
Rest and indulge
Besides all the deep inner work and play, there will also be some down-time for you to enjoy reading your book under the Ibiza sun by the pool, go for a stroll, visit a beach, enjoy the wonderful surroundings, or just relax in your room.
We will be serving mouthwatering, healthy and hearty vegetarian and vegan meals and snacks, delicious warm drinks and vitamin-packed juices. A feast for the senses! Get ready to be pampered by our chefs.

The Symbiosis retreat will take place at the stunningly boho-chic Can Rafael, a vast and cozy healing paradise located on more than 40,000 square meters of olive grove in the heart of the magical Mediterranean island of Ibiza. It offers an opportunity to experience the authentic Ibiza countryside lifestyle the island is famous for.
Family-owned Can Rafael is built using sustainable and natural materials, following the principles of energetic efficiency, in which the elements and the cardinal directions play a central role. From the house to the meditation temple and the medicinal plant garden, everything is designed according to the principles of sacred geometry. The retreat center is beautifully decorated, light and warm.
The heart of this powerful place is a high-energy meditation temple, guarded by two exceptional amethyst druses, over 2m in size, cleansing and energising the temple area. The temple is equipped with an incredible sound installation, underfoot heating and air-conditioning.
Can Rafael sleeps 8 people in winter and 14 in summer , and is located in the rural area between San Lorenzo and Santa Eulalia, a 10 minutes drive from the latter, 18 minutes from Ibiza Town and 20 minutes from the Airport. Ibiza retreat

Introducing: Medicine Music with Bettina Maureenji
Bettina Maureenji, who is also our co-facilitator on our Dutch summer retreat, is an internationally acclaimed musician, yogi and song writer, certified Voice Healing Teacher and Therapist. The songs and prayers Bettina has written and learned over the last 20 years are a reflection of her own personal journey of healing. Bettina’s intention in music is to facilitate a space that invites into other states of consciousness where healing and transformation can take place. For her, sound is sacred and a direct connection to the Divine that teaches us to stay grounded within our bodies, to be in touch with Mother Earth and to wish happiness for all beings seen and unseen. During this retreat, Bettina will offer her medicine music during the ceremony and will also provide a beautiful meditation concert.
Introducing: Myofascial Release Yin Yoga with Masi Fraysse
Mahsima Anousha Fraysse — known lovingly as Masi — is a lifelong student of yoga and embodiment. Born to a Persian mystic mother and French father, her path has led her from the Himalayas to the Amazon, where she studied with teachers and traditions that continue to inspire her unique approach today. At our retreat, Masi will be guiding Myofascial Release Yin Yoga, a slow practice with long holds and gentle use of props to help release tension stored in the fascia. Her classes are infused with soothing music, somatic awareness, and deep respect for the body’s innate intelligence.
Having healed her own spinal injury through these practices, Masi teaches from lived experience. She invites participants into a space of care, curiosity, and comfort—where the nervous system can soften and the whole being can enter a state of deep receptivity.

Introducing: Clarity Breathwork with Elke Scior
Elke Scior is a certified Clarity Breathwork facilitator. Her journey began after being diagnosed with an autoimmune condition in her early twenties, which led her to explore natural healing through Ayurveda, yoga, and eventually the profound power of the breath. Since 2017, Elke has been guiding individuals and groups in Ibiza and beyond through transformational breathwork journeys. Her sessions create a safe and nurturing space for participants to release tension, uncover and integrate buried emotions, and connect with a deeper sense of clarity, vitality, and self-love. With her unique combination of compassion, professional training, and lived experience, Elke supports people in accessing the innate wisdom of the breath as a gateway to healing body, mind, and spirit. Elke also offers incredible Ayurvedic massages and panchakarma treatments.
Optional: massage or energy healing
Having two in-house therapists onsite, each with their own therapy room, there is also space in between activities to book a bodywork or healing session for yourself.

‘‘Deep bows of gratitude for the most safe, gentle, well contained and organized medicine space I have ever sat in. Andrea and the team are filled with loving support, wisdom and deep embodied compassion. I would follow them anywhere! The space and land is stunning and clearly well cared for, the food is nourishing and grounding. I could not have asked for a more loving and positive experience. Endlessly grateful. Thank you sweet ones. Oh the joys and wonders in finding the heart over and over and over again. Be courageous, love big, feel it all.’’

“The benefits of doing this work are immeasurably powerful. I came away from this retreat softly held by a beautiful mystery. I believe this will inform every interpersonal relationship I have for the rest of my life and when I contemplate how potentially far-reaching and stupendous the ripple effects of Andrea's retreat are, I am literally moved to tears. I can't thank the facilitators and the other participants enough. Also, I was very impressed by how delicious the food was. I can't stop thinking about it.“

‘‘Now that I’m back from our lovely little Ibiza bubble I want to say a massive heartfelt thank you for all Andrea, Jeroen and Robine did over the last days during the retreat. It was truly magical—if only we could live like that forever. But the real test comes in integrating all the magic into our lives back home. Thank you for helping us all find the light that's always in us but can be so hard to see sometimes.’’

‘‘It was an absolutely unforgettable experience. I’ve spent years in therapy, which has been incredibly valuable, but this ceremony brought things to the surface in a way that felt truly transformative — it touched something much deeper. What came up, what I felt and understood, will stay with me for a long time. From the very first moment, Andrea and her wonderful, loving team made me feel safe, seen, and completely held. There’s such a sense of trust and warmth in the space they create; it allows you to truly surrender, to open your heart, and to let the experience unfold in the most beautiful way. I’m endlessly grateful for this journey, for the tears, the laughter, the breakthroughs — and for all the radiant women who shared this sacred space with me. It was unique, powerful beyond words and genuinely beautiful in every sense, and something I will carry in my heart forever.’’

“I had an amazing and truly transformative retreat in Ibiza with Andrea and a group of beautiful people. The deep learnings from that week continue to echo through my life and the work still carries on. I felt so cared for by Andrea, not just during the retreat but even beforehand, the way she explained the process and prepared us made me feel safe and held before we even arrived. Once we were there, her guidance and presence created such a safe and supportive space that the whole experience became even more meaningful and fruitful. Spending a full week together allowed everything to deepen, and the integration process, which Andrea carefully curated, added immense value to the ceremonies. The food from Jeroen was absolutely amazing, and both he and Robine offered such understated but deeply nurturing support throughout the retreat. The music from Tommy and the art from Aphra were a wonderful accompaniment making the whole journey even more beautiful and healing. It was a truly life-changing experience that I will carry with me. Thank you for a thousand lifetimes.”

‘‘This was my fourth time attending a Stellar Folk ceremony or retreat — and that probably says it all. During this 5 day retreat with Andrea and her beautiful team, I felt truly held and supported. Everything was so attuned, so safe. There was space for my vulnerability, and in that space, I felt deeply safe, seen and heard. There was room for all that I am, even my most vulnerable parts. What I loved most was the balance Andrea brings — the depth and safety to go through the darkness, while also holding a lightness, a sense of humour, and grounded presence. It reminded me that we can move through the dark, and that on the other side, there is always light. That’s exactly what happened for me. Oh, and the fooood is the best! Thank you.’’

“The Symbiosis retreat touched me in ways I never anticipated. As a gay man, I’ve often carried layers of armour into spaces like these, unsure if I’d be fully seen, safe, or accepted. But from the moment I arrived, I was embraced with such warmth, care, and genuine kindness by Andrea, Jeroen, Robine, Aphra and Tommy. I felt held, supported, and celebrated—not just tolerated, but truly welcomed. That alone was healing. The setting was magnificent. A soft and sacred place where I could finally exhale and let go. The itinerary, beautifully intentional, guided us into practices I’d normally avoid but now became pathways for presence and peace. Even the food was nourishment for body & spirit. Each meal was like a love letter, made with deep respect for the experience we were all moving through. The ceremonies and breathwork cracked me open. I received insights and messages that felt ancient and intimate, like parts of myself coming home. I laughed, I cried and I shed layers of judgment toward others, toward myself. There was no need to pretend. No need to shrink. We were all invited to show up as our full, glorious, complicated, radiant selves. And we did! I leave this retreat changed. I carry with me not only the wisdom of what I experienced, but also the powerful connections I made. With others, and with parts of myself I thought I had lost. To the Symbiosis team, and to the beautiful souls I walked this path with: thank you. You gave me back a piece of myself I didn’t know was missing.”

“I wanted to share with you what your loving work, your being and holding meant to me. This morning it was overwhelming me, so I had to write it down. What I experienced with you at Symbiosis Retreat is so deep, so grounding, I can hardly put it into words. It is a reminder, it is digging up what's already there inside of everyone of us but often is so well hidden; hidden under so many layers society and mankind has put on itself. We just have to strip off all the layers to arrive at the essence of what life is about. It is about being and opening your heart to everyone and everything. In 12 years of school, 4,5 years of university and 4 years of training to become a judge I have never had such an important lesson. And I finally feel so whole and right the way I am. I was being assured to trust my heart, which is actually without a doubt the most nourishing way of being. To not lose this trust, to not let anyone, no institution, no person, no entity, destroy my trust, my intuition, my senses. These are equally as precious, and even beyond valuable, than our thoughts and minds. Embrace them and trust them, that's what the mushroom has helped me seeing. Again and again thank you, thank you from the deepest of my soul. You all will stay in my heart forever.”

“Symbiosis has taught me something invaluable for the rest of my life: to connect with and actually feel my emotions. Especially for men, I think, this is a challenge, as we’re such doers. We tend to jump into action instead of just being with the sensations and letting the body process them. This is where the magic happens—it’s like alchemy! Feeling safe in a group of complete strangers (that became like family in a matter of days) is what contributed to the cathartic transformation for me, as it was so exposing in a good way. I feel like I can express myself in a more authentic way now. And that is all possible thanks to you guys and your incredible skills as facilitators. And the beautiful earth medicine we work with, of course. And the food… The food! From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I’ll be back.”

“The magic of this retreat already started by deciding to book it, and is still unfolding weeks after. The warmth of the whole experience is something that has deeply touched me. The guidance, the group, the location, the food, and all the caring attention has been the absolute best. The ceremony itself was really meaningful, beautiful and super well guided. But combined with all the aftercare, the openhearted talking and great supporting program it really took it to a next level for me. A deep calm feeling has come over me and I feel much stronger as a woman. It has showed me softness, and I can speak my truth with more ease. It presented options of developing myself and magical life paths are (still) unfolding right in front of me. I am forever grateful to have had the chance to be part of this group, and I will gladly take part in another when the time is right.”

“The Symbiosis retreat is a truly life-transforming experience. Never before had I felt such a profound connection to both spirituality and body consciousness. I now find meaning in every corner of my life and a deep love for Mother Earth. I feel present, in harmony, and free from the self-sabotaging patterns that once held me back. This retreat is a journey to dissolve the ego into symbiosis, to awaken your inner light so it can illuminate the darkness with serenity. I wholeheartedly believe that everyone should experience it, the world would be a far more peaceful place. There is no one I trust more than Andrea and her team to guide, letting the wisdom of the mushrooms help find the way.”

‘‘The Symbiosis retreat was truly profound in ways I never could have imagined. To be supported with such care and kindness by Andrea, Jeroen, Robine and Joella was such a joyous, nurturing and bountiful experience. I arrived to the warmest of welcomes and immediately knew that I would be supported and guided by this extraordinary team. The location was breathtaking and helped to create a space of peace and softness as I dove into the well-crafted itinerary, trying some things I’d never done before. Yoga and meditation, once things I’d avoided, now felt essential and beneficial. The exquisite food, something I’d never previously been interested in, became a rich and welcome source of nourishment and importance. The ceremonies and breathwork brought me such beautiful gifts, insights, messages and revelations. Connections were made, barriers came crashing down, judgements were left elsewhere and we were free to be ourselves. Our true authentic selves. I am forever indebted to the Symbiosis team and the brave, powerful, authentic humans I shared this magical experience with.’’

“The moment you enter the Symbiosis space and meet Andrea, Jeroen, Robine and all the facilitators, you feel wholly safe, held and seen to your core. The ceremony is a truly powerful experience, but the way Andrea and her team hold space for you, care for you and help you through everything that comes up during the retreat is so deeply nourishing to the soul that it is, to me, the most important part of the medicine. Pure bliss. If you are here reading this review, you have already been called into the space – but let me tell you also: Take the leap! It will be the bravest and truest form of self-care you will ever gift yourself.“

“Being held by Andrea felt like bathing in the safety I had lacked as a child. There were several moments during the 5 days of our Symbiosis that I thought: wow, this is exceeding my imagination of the transformative potential this journey can bring! It was deep. It was healing. Thank you.”

‘‘I went on the 7-day Symbiosis retreat led by Andrea and her team. This was my first ever experience with mushrooms, and I had an amazing time. Andrea, her partner, and the whole team are genuine, heart-warming human beings who truly want the best for you. They took such great care in ensuring our safety, comfort, and sense of belonging. I felt so safe and relaxed that I could fully embrace the experience. The food was delicious and nourishing, and the surroundings were beautiful and peaceful. I loved every part of the programme, which was thoughtfully designed, as well as the serene environment we were held in. Can Rafael is a place I will always remember and return to. Overall, it was a special and transformative experience I would recommend to anyone.’’

“Having been in therapy for years and years and being on and off medication (antidepressants and Ritalin) I realised life never really got better. Until I became acquainted with the work of Gabor Maté on the wisdom of trauma. It became clear to me it was time to try plant medicine. The Symbiosis Retreat crossed my path and I contacted Andrea. Her kind and loving words, but most of all her knowledge and experience were what I needed at this time. She guided me through the steps of weaning off my medication in consultation with my doctor and preparing me for the retreat. But she couldn’t have prepared me for this amazing adventure of love, grief, trust and support. I still haven’t found words to fully describe it, but I feel the love I experienced there every single day. And most important: it healed a piece of me I thought was broken for good. I am still off medication (in consultation with my doctor) and I feel reborn. Stellar Folk helped me find myself again on this retreat and that is the best gift I ever gave myself.”

“The Symbiosis retreat is a heart-opening experience of deep connection to Pachamama [Mother Earth] held in the most loving and safe container. And what a journey it was! First of all, the week was perfectly prepared, held and executed by the Symbiosis team. Everything was set up to enable the deepest trust, surrender and integration around the ceremonies. I felt so safe in this container, was able to journey so deep and was shown exactly what wanted to be revealed. I reemerged out of the retreat with so much clarity around my personal path and my soul mission. And what was truly the sweetest part of the retreat were the deep connections […]. Time to get lost in meaningful conversation, connection without words that carried through to ceremony and all other practices. Thank you Andrea & team. May many more people get to bathe in your strength, courage and wisdom that filter into Symbiosis.”

“The Symbiosis retreat is a gift to yourself. You won't get what you expect but what you need, and so much more. Trust the love and passion Andrea puts into her retreat, and you'll embark on a journey to meet yourself, surrounded by the compassion and tolerance of the safe circle she's built. You’ll see people and you’ll be seen, truly. You’ll experience how this catalyses bonds among participants, leaving you floating in a beautiful energy. Andrea, Robine, and Jeroen form the perfect trio for this inner work. They not only possess the knowledge to guide you through your healing journey but also attend to your every need. They seamlessly handle logistical details, allowing you to focus on your inner work and rest. And don't even get me started on the incredible food they prepare for us—Mamma Mia! I just wish I could experience it for the first time again. You gave me the best week of 2023.”

“I had been through 10 years of traditional therapy, I had read all the books and had even tried other alternative kinds of therapy. I had made progress but it was extremely slow. The Symbiosis retreat has been like 100 years of therapy in five days. The progress I have made is uncanny, I don’t know if I had gotten to this point otherwise. The amount of commitment and dedication that the team has is incredible. It is the most loving and understanding group of people. I felt fully embraced and taken care of through the whole process. Words cannot express the gratitude that I have for them.”

“What a relaxing and recharging week of therapy for the soul and body, where there was space to disconnect, chill alone in the sun, laugh, cry and enjoy the delicious food every time. It almost felt like I hit ‘reset’ in the middle of November and gained so many insights that would have taken way longer I hadn’t joined this earth medicine retreat. Thank you Andrea & crew for creating such safe and grounded space with a beautiful balance between rational and spiritual, structure and organic way of exploring ourselves, each other and Ibiza.”

“I felt called to do this retreat since the first second I saw it. Being in contact with Andrea only cemented that call even further. I was apprehensive about meeting so many new people, but within these few days, we all became sisters. The love throughout the group was deeply felt and being vulnerable came easy after a while. Andrea and her chosen team made me feel safe and seen all throughout the retreat. They are all very compassionate and knowledgeable. The food was amazing and made with love, and the retreat space carefully chosen, well maintained and clean. I would definitely recommend sleeping in a glamping tent. The activities perfectly enhanced the ceremonies and made it easier to come into a more open mindset. The ceremonies have shown me what I've kept hidden from myself for a long time, which prevented me from fully stepping into all of who I am. I am now reclaiming these hidden parts. It didn't change me overnight – I still have to do the work and keep myself accountable, practicing vulnerability every day. But I think that I can't ever go back to what I was before, for which I’m so very grateful. If you feel called to dive deep, to connect with others, with Mother Earth and the Universe, Source, and mostly, with yourself, definitely participate. It's been a revelation. A long-term miracle. If I get the chance in a few months or years, I will definitely do it again.”

“What this retreat gave me cannot be expressed into words. Such a safe space was provided for me to show myself as my most vulnerable. I was able to release a pain that I had been carrying with me for more than 20 years. The food was incredibly nourishing. The group was both organised and flexible to our different moods. Everything was thought about with care and warmth. The talent, the love and the passion for the job shines through the entire team. I cannot wait to be back and continue to work on myself with their help and guidance!”

“I hardly know where to begin, this retreat has opened my heart in ways words can only touch. From the first moment, I was embraced by the warmth of Andrea, Robine, Jeroen, Bettina, and every soul gathered here, each carrying a kindness that made the space feel deeply safe. It was a profound gift to witness the spirit of the mushroom meeting each person exactly where they were, offering what was needed most. Some received gentle revelations, others powerful epiphanies, but everyone left carrying deep insights into their daily lives. The somatic approach and the sacred space for integration gave the journey a grounded potency, allowing the experience to unfold not only in the mind, but through the whole being. And the meals!!!! Thank you, Jeroen and Robine, for creating food that was itself a ceremony, every mouthful!! If you feel called to this work, I couldn’t recommend a Symbiosis retreat enough. Here you will be held in warmth, safety, and genuine compassion.”

“I am humbled. I have released frozen energy within my nervous system and witnessed it discharging, being freed. I have been shown once again that a strong ego and an open heart cannot co-exist. A strong sense of "I" denies unity. I have realigned, I am here to serve. The safety of a beautiful container and the help of nature's medicine has led me here. I felt held by these women in a way that I didn't know but somehow knew, it felt ancestral. This week was a returning to the heart. I sit in deep gratitude and with a new way of being and working.”

“Attending the Symbiosis retreat is one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. I found the courage to do something I’ve never done before together with 11 strangers that instantly created genuine connections and built a community grounded in curiosity, love and willingness to grow. I’m still in awe and forever grateful of what I’ve learned and experienced. The mesmerising island nature, the incredible retreat center, the wholesome food. The daily activities of yoga, meditation, sharing, music and the two ceremonies facilitated by the amazing Stellar Folk crew. From the bottom of my heart, I can truly recommend this life investment.”

“This was my second Symbiosis retreat, two years after the first. Deeply felt healing from the first retreat keeps showing up for me even now, and I felt called to again dive into this medicine. I can't properly put into words how an experience like this transforms you. I was being unearthed, brought to light, grounded, planted, reminded. I got to deeply meet parts of myself I might not have known yet. In this space, you are witnessing and you are being witnessed by others who are also called to do the work. I am shy in group settings, not at home in bigger social situations, yet, those who choose to join this experience will make you feel seen, heard, loved even, and never, ever judged. Going into ceremony with Andrea and her trusted team is healing, is safe, is loving, is care. You'll feel free to be completely vulnerable. If you are curious and feel the tingle to participate, trust your intuition. I truly can't imagine a safer and more loving environment than with this team. All the surrounding practices during the retreat, as well as the delicious meals, will support your journey and your search. You are held and you are seen and you are profoundly nourished. You are given tools to keep the momentum going. Thank you, thank you, thank you!“

We consider this from a holistic perspective, so please evaluate your overall global status before applying. Priority will be given to low-income immigrants and BIPOC individuals.

Symbiosis retreat is designed to bring you the peace and freedom you know is possible. Freedom from fear patterns and grief that no longer serve you.
You will use this time to listen to your body, stop the mind and renew your Spirit. The energy of Ibiza, together with the sacred medicines we will be working with, will cleanse and regenerate you. You will return with new understandings, insights, acceptance, forgiveness, release and purpose.
We want to help you cultivate a more authentic way to relate and engage with your life, the people and the natural world to which you belong. To feel empowered moving forward knowing what optimal wellbeing and connection look like beyond our week together — mentally, physically and spiritually.
Healing takes courage. Healing is the biggest gift you can give yourself. Healing is better together.

Is this retreat for you?
In order to create an intimate and relaxing atmosphere, this retreat is limited to 12 participants.
We understand that our bodies carry the imprint of our lived experience, including the ways the world has welcomed or marginalised us. We strive to offer a safe, dignified, and genuinely inclusive space for all who join us, and we’re here to encourage and support you. Stellar Folk is a welcoming home for BIPOC and LGBTQ+ participants. We stand for justice, equity, and the wellbeing of the natural world, trusting that inner healing, systemic change and collective liberation rise together.
Please write to us with anything we may need preparation for in order to make your retreat as comfortable as possible.

Retreat conditions
Prices are per person. If you come alone, you will share your accommodation with a friend you haven’t met.
We require a €300 deposit at sign up which is non-refundable. The remaining balance of your retreat price will be due 45 days before the retreat, on the 26th of August. Payment plans are available; please contact us if you wish to discuss the options.
There is no refund after the balance is paid; therefore, please consider purchasing a travel cancellation insurance. In case of illness or force majeure, it is possible to give your space to a friend; just inform us at least 10 days before the retreat takes place so we have time for the intake procedure and for their own preparation.
If we cancel the retreat date for any reason, you may transfer your full retreat payment to another retreat, or you may request a refund of your payment amount (less the deposit, which can be applied to another retreat) to your original payment method.
Organisers are not responsible for your expenses incurred in preparation for any cancelled retreat, such as airline tickets, loss of work, and/or other costs associated with preparing for your trip.
Organisers are not responsible for any loss, theft or damage to personal belongings; please consider purchasing travel insurance.

FAQ
-
Our personal favourite way to offer this experience is in a group setting as groups literally magnify healing; it is quite powerful!
Each person’s discovery is an invitation for another person’s quantum leap through shared intention, exploration and most of all: shared vulnerability. Magic happens in this space.
As Bessel van der Kolk says: "Being able to feel safe with other people is probably the single most important aspect of mental health; safe connections are fundamental to meaningful and satisfying lives."
This is very much missing in modern individualistic society. Loneliness is an epidemic. What we offer here is a safe space where everyone’s vulnerabilities are welcome. This, combined with the Medicine, has the capacity to take everyone’s ‘personality mask’ off, which forges deep, authentic connections fast. You will feel so seen and comfortable in a matter of hours upon arrival! Mark our words.
‘‘Rarely, if ever, are any of us healed in isolation. Healing is an act of communion.’’ – bell hooks.

Yes, but of course there can be critical circumstances that need to be checked first. We carefully screen the health condition and medications of our participants to ensure that we can safely provide the fungi. Head over to the ‘intake form’ button on top of the page to discover if this medicine is for you. Additionally, rest assured that we are highly trained, experienced and trauma-informed facilitators and guides. We are experienced with the medicine and able to create a safe space of support for all participants equally. Mind-altering fungi is generally very safe when working with it responsibly. It is seen as the safest of all mind-altering substances. Way more than alcohol even!
What dose will I take in my journeying? There are many factors that determine the exact amount of medicine you’ll take. Your full honesty/disclosure on your intake form (and the call we have afterwards) will help inform dosing. Generally speaking, a session is a “Moderate Macro Dose,” which is typically 2g - 3.5g. This is an inward journey, with the intention for deep healing. All doses are customised to each participant.
You can be confident that regardless of your experience (or no experience) with this plant medicine, you will be fully supported and guided in every aspect.

We fully acknowledge and support all participants, no matter at what stage they find themselves on their unique path.
We have welcomed individuals with a broad spectrum of encounters with psychedelics, spanning from novices to seasoned professionals within the psychedelics field.
Our retreats are meticulously crafted to accommodate individuals at various levels of experience in meditation and yoga, from total beginners to adept practitioners.
We provide daily guided meditations, and two yoga sessions intended to gently awaken the body, restore the nervous system, and foster awareness of the body-mind-heart connection.
Everyone is welcome. Please fill out the intake form to find out if this work is for you specifically.

Retreats are really meant as a cocoon of safety and integration for the group of participants. We are on a week-long journey together and will go pretty deep. Bringing in folks from outside of the retreat setting can feel as a bit of a disruption of this safe space and is therefore not something we allow. If you are interested in a ceremony outside of retreat setting, you can find all the information and prices on the Fungi ceremony page.
