4-day Group Psilocybin Retreat

September, 1-4 2025 | Portugal

This 4-day retreat in Portugal is a very special and carefully designed process held in a sanctuary for transformation and growth, just an hour from Lisbon Airport.

From the moment you reserve your spot, you begin a 4-week preparation program with guidance on practices that prepare your mind and body for the work ahead.

Once on-site, our program is designed to support you fully with:

  • Breathwork to ground you and expand your awareness,
  • Temazcal (sweatlodge) to purify the body
  • nourishing meals to sustain your energy
  • Movement and somatic practices to ensure your body is ready
  • Connecting exercises to build trust among participants.
  • Cacao Ceremony to reconnect to your heart

At the heart of the retreat is a professionally guided psilocybin ceremony, carefully facilitated to ensure safety and depth of experience. This is not a casual encounter but a space for serious inner exploration and if you are reading this, it means your process already started.

Integration is a critical part of this work. Following the ceremony, we guide you through the integration process. Our commitment is to ensure you are fully prepared before the work, fully supported during it, and fully guided afterward.
