About this Retreat
Details of this retreat
The Beckley program is a six-day guided psilocybin experience set at The Place To Be, a serene retreat center in the Achterhoek region of eastern Netherlands, surrounded by woodland and open meadows.
Beckley Retreats is a US-based public benefit corporation operating exclusively in legal jurisdictions, currently Jamaica and the Netherlands. Our guests come from all walks of life, many in their 40s through 70s, including executives, senior leaders, doctors, lawyers, and healthcare professionals, and we take real pride in the diversity of each group. What they tend to share is a readiness to look honestly at the patterns that haven't shifted, whether they are navigating burnout, a significant inflection point, or simply ready for something different.
Every participant goes through a suitability process before being accepted, to ensure the program is genuinely the right fit and that each cohort is intentionally composed. The six days on retreat include two guided psilocybin experiences, facilitated group sessions, meditation and breathwork instruction, personal time, connection with your cohort, and dedicated space for preparation and integration, held by a team of practitioners with hundreds of years of combined experience in this field.
Our program at Beckley Retreats has a 2- week preparation and 4-week integration process supported by our team of world-class facilitators. We combine ancient practices (Vipassana meditation, yoga, ancestral wisdom and shamanic practices) with the support of psychotherapy, cutting edge science and a range of powerful integration methods. We help our participants to reconnect with themselves, each other and nature in order to dive into the subconscious patterns within ourselves to bring real and lasting changes. The overall 6-week program surrounding the retreat is designed to best support your journey and ensure you feel prepared, supported, connected and equipped to integrate your experience holistically when you return home.

Intentionally aligned
This experience was one of the most profound of my life—not because of any single moment, but because of the collective journey. From the thoughtful pre-work to the setting itself, and most importantly, the group of people who came together, everything felt intentionally aligned in a way that can't really be replicated. There's a level of trust required going in, and for me, it paid off in a meaningful way. The facilitators were exceptional. Their presence, care, and ability to guide the process felt genuine and well-timed. It's clear they bring both skill and heart to what they do, and it made a lasting impact. A few notes that may help future attendees—these are more logistical than experiential. The drive to the location is long and quite bumpy, which caught me off guard. Some attendees were also unprepared for unexpected personal needs, so bringing a few extra essentials is a good idea. There were ants in the rooms, though they didn't cause any real issues. Food-wise, there weren't snacks available between meals, so having something small on hand can help if needed. Overall, none of these details took away from the experience itself, which was incredibly powerful and well-held. I have a lot of respect for the care and intention behind this work and would absolutely recommend it to anyone considering the journey.
