About this Retreat

Your Guides

Details of this retreat

We are a nonprofit association offering legal, individual 1:1 psychedelic-assisted therapy sessions with magic mushrooms (Psilocybe cubensis) to those in need. This premium 1 day retreat package includes overnight accomodation, a 1hr online preparation consultation in the days before the session, and a 1hr online integration consultation in the days after the session.

We are graduates of Somatic Plant Medicine Integration certification and have completed professional training in the Trauma-informed Plant Medicine Masterclass offered by Atira Tan. We are signatories of the North Star ethics pledge for psychedelic practitioners, guided by integrity and sincerity as foundational principles in our work.

Based on the standard protocol for clinical practice developed by Johns Hopkins University, Imperial College London, the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies and others, our sessions are conducted individually, in comfortable, quiet, cosy indoor environments, close to nature, with one or more monitors present at all times to offer non-intrusive, non-directive care and support. To ensure the experience of everyone is as beneficial as possible, we do not host group retreats but invite individuals to embark on a long-term, multi-stage journey with us, in which the session itself is merely one phase.

Our approach is grounded in psychosomatic therapy and incorporates elements of Dr Peter Levine´s Somatic Experiencing, Dr David Bercelli´s Trauma Release Exercises, emotional release exercises from the Reichian tradition of body-based psychoanalysis, and breathwork-based methods of nervous-system autoregulation.

Schedule

To ensure the experience of everyone is as beneficial as possible, we do not host group retreats but invite individuals to embark on a long-term, multi-stage journey with us, in which the session itself is merely one phase. During the intake phase, we conduct a thorough medical and psychological pre-screening process to ensure the safety of the experience for all candidates.

Once applications are accepted and dates arranged, the preparation phase includes the presentation of introductory educational content, and an introductory video interview to get to know each other and to discuss intentions and upcoming steps.

We meet you at the site around 11am. The session begins with a preparatory discussion, during which we set and record intentions, work through doubts and fears, advise how to respond to challenging experiences, and quieten the mind with a "lovingkindness" meditation. The mushrooms are served in a tea ceremony including an infusion of herbal extracts shown in several clinical trials to reduce anxiety significantly in patients awaiting surgery. This is particularly apt as a high dose psychedelic session is comparable to performing a deep surgical operation on your own mind.

Once the effects subside, around 5 hours later, we provide opportunities for you to record the experience in writing or through audio. We close the session around 6pm.

Very professional and helpful
Siddiq has been very helpful and professional. And even though we did not meet in person, we had great communication in organizing the retreat. He has ticked all the boxes in my book, so 5 star all the way. Thank you Siddiq

Friendship beyond the journey
Very grateful to Elena, my journey facilitator. The knowledge, flexibility, and genuine approach which in my eyes characterizes Elena has led to an extraordinary experience. The useful insights received from the journey would not have been possible without the attributes I have described above.
I will forever be grateful to Elena, whom I can call a friend now, and certainly will meet again.

Incredible experience
Through Mycosomatic Magic I was able to fulfill one of my biggest curiosities. Exploring the deepest recesses of my psyche through magic mushrooms. All the people involved in the process were very thoughtful, helpful and flexible. These guys are amazing and very gifted in what they do, and they do it with integrity.

Power, generosity and oneness
I had my very first high dose experience facilitated by Siddiq and Peyton, and I couldn’t have asked for a better pair to guide me through it. They offer a comprehensive experience: from providing resources and reading recommendations beforehand, to offering tools and practices for before and after the session, to giving guidance throughout the entire journey - they even created space for some integration afterwards.

My experience was profoundly beautiful, largely because I felt completely comfortable letting go and simply being. There was so much release - it was incredibly powerful. Throughout it all Siddiq and Peyton allowed their souls to dive in alongside mine. They are truly generous and giving with their energy; they were 100% present.

I will forever be grateful for this experience with them and will carry it in my heart with deep fondness.

Malwina was a warm, reassuring, and experienced guide, providing really gentle and effective support during difficult parts of my trip, and the space was private and comfortable and easy to be in as we slowly re-emerged back into the world after our trip. She has been helpful before and after our trip as well, checking in and answering questions and providing resources on integration. Highly recommend!
