RETREAT DEEP WITHIN

Are you curious about the powerful healing potentials of psychedelic mushrooms?

Retreat to your inner world in a safe, nurturing and supportive experience. My role as your facilitator is to create a psychedelic experience that is deeply rooted in tradition and spirituality.

Medicine ceremonies are profoundly healing. The medicine allows you access to your inner healing intelligence. While parts of your journey may be enjoyable, there is work that will come up. I will guide you lovingly through the process of exploring your unique psychedelic landscape. The medicine will not do the work for you but it is a master guide that knows exactly how to guide you. Together we will lovingly support your expansion!

Benefits of Traditional Psilocybin Healing Ceremonies

1. Emotional Healing: Psilocybin has been shown to facilitate emotional healing by allowing participants to confront and process unresolved traumas, grief, and emotional blockages. This can lead to insights and resolutions that promote overall psychological well-being.

2. Enhanced Self-Awareness: Participants often experience heightened self-awareness and introspection during a ceremony. This can help individuals understand their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors more clearly, leading to personal growth and self-acceptance.

3. Spiritual Connection: Many people report experiencing a strong sense of connection to themselves, others, and the universe during psilocybin ceremonies. This spiritual aspect can foster a renewed sense of purpose and meaning in life.

4. Altered Perspective: Psilocybin can help shift one’s perspective on personal challenges and life situations. This new viewpoint can lead to creative problem-solving and a reframing of negative thought patterns, promoting a healthier mindset.

5. Physical Relaxation: Psilocybin can promote deep relaxation and a sense of peace, allowing participants to release physical and mental tension. This can lead to improved overall well-being and stress reduction.

6. Guidance from Experienced Facilitator: Guidance, support, and a safe environment will be provided.
Musical instruments such as my voice, drums, rattles, singing bowls, and a curated playlist will be used throughout ceremony to guide participants and facilitate the journey. Reiki energy will be intuitively used to help lighten heavy energy and allow the flow of healthy energy. I help participants navigate their experiences and integrate insights afterward.

7. Holistic Healing: Traditional psilocybin healing ceremonies incorporate various elements of holistic healing, such as energy-work, breathwork, and sound, creating a comprehensive approach to well-being that addresses the mind, body, and spirit.

8. Cultural and Historical Significance: Participating in a traditional ceremony connects individuals to ancient indigenous practices and cultural heritage, honoring the historical use of psilocybin in healing and spiritual contexts. This can enhance the depth of the experience and foster respect for the tradition and life in general.

Traditional psilocybin healing ceremonies offer a unique pathway to emotional, spiritual, and psychological healing. By providing a safe and supportive environment, these ceremonies can facilitate transformative experiences that promote well-being, self-discovery, and deeper connections with oneself and others.

A Journey starts Weeks before the Ceremony

My work with mushrooms is done so with deep reverence. Out of great respect I have for their potent intelligence, this offering is for those that I have fostered a deep knowing with- both energetic and relational. I recommend deepening our connection with my Reiki, Yoga and Astrology offerings. 

If this feels right for both of us, a Journey consists of:

  • Three 60 minute sessions of prep work, one session per week:
    • Prep-Work Session 1: Guidelines, Expectations, Your history, Begin to formulate an Intention, Schedule future sessions.
    • Prep-Work Session 2 and 3: Deepen into Intention, Discuss any questions & concerns/fears, Reiki treatment and Astrology transit reading.
  • A Ceremony Day
    • 6 hours (minimum)
  • At least one, 60 minute, Integration session to be completed within 24-48 hours after your journey. A second integration session is highly recommended within a week or two after ceremony. These sessions are all about gleaning the wisdom and mining the gold of your experience!

**It is highly recommended that you attend my yoga classes throughout this journey! The more that we can grow our energetic bond the better!  

My preference is to guide you through a Hero’s Dose! What is a Hero’s Dose?

A “hero’s dose” of psilocybin mushrooms typically refers to a high dose intended to induce a profound psychedelic experience. While there is no universally accepted measurement, it is generally considered to be around 5 grams or more of dried psilocybin mushrooms. This quantity is significantly higher than what is usually taken for a mild or moderate experience (which can range from 1 to 3.5 grams), and it is meant for those seeking a deep, transformative experience.

Why Take a Hero’s Dose?

1. Profound Insights and Revelations: Many individuals report experiencing deep insights about themselves, their lives, and their place in the universe during a hero’s dose. This can lead to significant personal growth and transformation.

2. Ego Dissolution: A high dose can facilitate what is known as “ego dissolution,” where individuals may feel a loss of their sense of self. This experience can help participants confront their fears, insecurities, and limiting beliefs, leading to a sense of liberation and renewal.

3. Spiritual Experiences: Many people use hero’s doses to explore spiritual dimensions. They may feel connected to a greater whole, experience a sense of unity with nature, or have mystical experiences that can alter their worldview.

4. Therapeutic Potential: Emerging research suggests that high doses of psilocybin can be effective in treating various mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, and addiction. A hero’s dose may provide a powerful therapeutic experience that facilitates healing.

5. Emotional Release: The intensity of the experience can lead to cathartic emotional releases, helping individuals process and let go of unresolved traumas or feelings they have been holding onto.

6. Enhanced Creativity and Problem-Solving: High doses can lead to altered thinking patterns, often resulting in increased creativity and new perspectives on challenges or problems in one’s life.

A hero’s dose of psilocybin mushrooms can be a powerful tool for personal growth, healing, and spiritual exploration. It should be approached with the utmost respect, preparation, and an understanding of the potential risks and benefits. I will always prioritize safety.

What are the Expectations of you?

  • Make time to be in nature everyday, even if only for 10 minutes. Incorporate a grounding practice (walking barefoot on Mother Earth) if the Season allows.
