The Medicine Journey - Psilocybin Group Retreat

In this retreat, we will explore an alternative approach to mental health and planetary wellbeing.

Part mystery and part wisdom, mushrooms produce molecules that fit receptors in the human brain and body. When we ingest this magical medicine of nature with an intent to heal—and we listen deeply and learn to interpret the messages accurately—we learn from them.

The Medicine:

Psilocybin has a gentle and kind way of highlighting for us the very thing that needs our attention. While it is magic in many ways, it isn't a quick fix. It is a supportive method to ease the severity and intensity of what we are experiencing and helps us move through life and its challenges with a little more ease. It is imperative to your journey to receive guidance and to learn the tools to enhance and increase the benefits that the medicine offers on its own. Additionally, the medicine opens up new portals of creativity, passion, and empathy that have the power to enhance anyone's life.

Scientific Research Shows Benefits of Psilocybin Use Include:

Improved connections between brain regions

Freeing up of long-held mental and emotional patterns

Decreased depression

Costa Rica is an Energy Vortex

An energy vortex is a specific location on Earth, which acts as a swirling center of energy, containing more earthly energy than any normal place would. One common belief regarding energy vortexes is that they exist at the intersections of Ley lines or the lines of natural energy that make up the Earth’s electromagnetic field. The fact that Costa Rica is an Energy Vortex, creates a very potent ecosystem for immense life shifts and transformations. The high energy that this land has amplifies all the experiences here.

World Class Experience
I have experienced a very popular, very expensive retreat (I will not mention their name) and that did not measure up to what Jacqui and Embracing Your Light has to offer. I was blown away by the professionalism, knowledge, insight, wisdom, luxury and overall 5-star experience. Jacqui should be charging more for what she offers and the impact she has on the work she is so clearly born to do!

I already signed my son up to have this experience too.

Magic, magic, magic - It changed my life!
Seriously the most magical, life-changing experience of my life! This does not discount the challenges I experienced deciding to proceed with a retreat I had no reference for or knowledge of. Especially with this being my first time with psilocybin, and traveling to a different country. Jacqui was amazing from zoom session to after the retreat. She provided all of the information necessary for me to confidently make my decision. She answered all of my questions and concerns, and I had many, she guided me and checked in with me in between, and greeted me upon arrival. She was my guardian angel! Plus - big big plus - she has remained connected with me even after the retreat! Jacqui genuinely cares and I am grateful and pleased that I found her!

Don't miss your opportunity to experience Jacqui and this work that she generously offers! It'll change your life. It changed mine.

Overall, I can only say… wonderful and such a beautiful, nurturing setting. I have nothing to compare it to, but have a feeling this is in the top of this kind of experience! Thank you!

Integrity
Being new to this kind of experience, I was a little apprehensive- I immediately felt at ease when Jacqui greeted me the day I arrived. She is a grounded, loving, caring woman that is doing exactly what she is here to do. The word ‘Integrity’ is what comes to me with my interaction and experience with her and the retreat. I felt completely safe and held for this very vulnerable experience – it allowed me to let go into the places that I needed, to accomplish the deep work that we did together and in my journey. I feel blessed to have met her and that she is in my life!
