About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

Grow into
psychedelic care

Over six months and an immersive in-person retreat, you’ll explore the art of holding space through a lens that is somatic, creative, trauma-informed, and socially aware. Our approach recognizes that healing doesn’t happen in isolation – it is relational, shaped by culture, history, and systemic realities.

Through movement, embodiment, voice, breath, and deep connection with nature, you’ll gain hands-on experience in psychedelic processes and supervised spaceholding. Live online workshops, mentored peer groups, and additional resources deepen your learning, grounding it in reciprocity, ethical integrity, and compassionate care for both individuals and the collective.

By the end of the program, you’ll have a strong foundation in integrative approaches to psychedelic care, understanding the full arc from screening to integration, and cultivating essential tools and skills required to hold space.

Holistic facilitation journey

Rooted in psychotherapy, science, and traditional healing wisdom, this program emphasizes preparation, integration, embodiment, and creativity. Guided by experienced facilitators, you’ll practice spaceholding in a supervised setting – deepening your capacity to attune, connect, and hold space with authenticity.

Through this heart-centered, experiential approach, you’ll explore facilitation as a relational practice. You’ll learn to listen deeply – not only to individuals, but to the shared dynamics of the group – developing the sensitivity to track what is present, and respond with care. This includes attuning to the collective nervous system and recognizing and learning how to navigate with what is alive in the space.

By embodying this work, you’ll begin to understand what is truly required to support others through both challenging and rewarding experiences, with a grounded presence and recognition of our shared humanity.

Transformative Six Days
The Kyumi experience is a very special one, which I can highly recommend. The quality of care with which the retreat is planned is of a very high level. The setting; the activities; the exquisite food; and the supportive care of a highly specialised and experienced team bring the magic of the mushroom experience to life. If you are ready to transform, you couldn’t be in safer hands than with Kyumi.

Amazing
This retreat was nothing I expected (perhaps because I did not have any prior experience with these types of retreats), yet deeply moving on a personal level, connecting, loving, accepting, and allowing me to experience something outside of my comfort zone. I am filled with immense gratitude to the facitlitators, organizers, and fellow participants, and highly recommend Kiyumi to others who seek something deeper, something more, something delicious... the food was absolutely amazing and one of the best parts of the retreat!
