Odyssey - 6-Day Psilocybin Retreat for Deep Creativity, Oregon
August 31 - September 5, 2026
Odyssey’s Deep Creativity retreat is structured as a psychedelic-assisted group inquiry. It is not primarily a therapeutic retreat focused on individual healing, though healing and growth may well come out of learning, conversation, surprise, and the vitality of shared discovery. We are exploring creativity as a fundamental human force: something that lives in each of us and between us.
A psychedelic inquiry is a guided group exploration into a fundamental dimension of human life, such as creativity, shaped by the unique mix of people present. Honest dialogue, evocative exercises, live music, and carefully held psilocybin journeys create a living investigation where healing emerges from shared discovery rather than private self-focus. The aim is to help participants outcreate old patterns and move forward with greater agency.
Odyssey isn’t just another retreat—it’s an invitation for the intrepid spirit. For those who respect the power of science, yearn for profound personal growth, and seek to truly come alive, your journey begins here.
