This retreat offers a unique opportunity to reconnect with life following the loss of a loved one. For individuals who have been stuck suffering from grief for an extended period of time, psilocybin can play an important part of one’s journey back to living fully.

This retreat is intended for individuals who have lost a loved one. While grief can take many forms, for the sake of group coherence and psychological safety, we are reserving this retreat specifically for bereaved individuals.

This retreat is also intended for individuals who are past the ‘acute’ phase of grief. Grieving is a normal and healthy response to loss. Undergoing a psilocybin experience during the acute phase of grief is generally not recommended, as it may overly intensify what are already intense and natural emotions, and may not aid in the healing process. A psilocybin experience is most beneficial to individuals who have reached some point of ‘stuckness’ in their grieving process.
