AN OPPORTUNITY TO DEVELOP TOOLS FOR A MORE FULFILLING LIFE
Expanded states of consciousness provide an opportunity to experience our growth edges. Developing tools over time grows our internal capacity to continue to engage with these growth edges and sustain personal development over time.
This program focuses on building capacity for self-compassion, embodiment, and navigating life more authentically as the foundation of maintaining healthy patterns and cultivating inner growth.
The intention of this program is to create a supportive space to explore the unrecognized parts of ourselves and create healthier relationships from the inside out using a combination of practices and tools.
WHY PSILOCYBIN MUSHROOMS?
When we meet Psilocybin mushrooms, we open ourselves to perceive beyond our conditioning, patterns, and filters.
Through trusting the process, and moving toward what arises, we move into a deeper experience of ourselves without our habitual resistances.
We work with them as a tool to deepen practices and better understand the relationships we have with different aspects of ourselves.
When sacred mushrooms are used with respect, clear intention, and gratitude they can bring insights that when integrated, catalyze self-development.
WHY SHADOW WORK?
The ‘shadow’ refers to the parts of ourselves that exist outside of our awareness. These parts play a role in our decisions, our reactions, and our patterns.
Shadow work is the process of discovering and growing awareness around these unincorporated parts. Through this increased awareness, we learn to identify when these distinct parts show up in our life. This creates space to make decisions aligned with the best version of ourselves, and helps form new, healthy patterns of behavior.
Shadow work practices provide an opening to grow our capacity to witness our difficult parts. Doing Shadow work before the journey prepares us for the aspects of ourselves we are likely to meet and explore more deeply while in the expanded state of consciousness.

What previous participants have to say about their experience with us….
"The retreat experience was profoundly life-changing.
From filling out the contact form, going through the self-compassion assessment, engaging in the preparation reflections, participating in the weekly online group coaching calls, and experiencing the before and after guided practices, everything leading up to the retreat weekend was just perfect.
The facilitator team is simply sublime; each member brings their own special energy, and together they are truly incredible.
This journey has transformed my life, and I am forever grateful for the experience, the amazing people I met, and the invaluable learnings. Despite having no prior experience with the practices or ceremony, the team made me feel comfortable and secure throughout. I highly recommend this retreat to anyone ready to explore their inner self, whether you’re a beginner or have done similar retreats before. This one is truly special."

"The retreat and coaching was an absolutely wonderful all encompassing experience. I loved having the weekly coaching sessions on Zoom to meet the group, to share, and start to open up, to feel safe, and to be held accountable. It was also SO helpful to be given the tools like meditations and other exercises to do in between to keep the transformations happening. The retreat itself was beautiful. The facilitators were so supportive and gifted and each of us felt so safe and loved during a very raw and heart-opening experience. The villa had the most amazing energy and the food was also so nourishing, I felt really cared for. I didn't think I'd be able to get past my nerves to do the ceremony but with all the work before and all of support I received there, I felt extremely safe the whole time. Also the music was just incredible, it really moved my soul and assisted my journey. And the shadow work we did the day before was extremely powerful, and it was an honor to see each person release and transform. Overall, I loved the retreat and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for positive change in their life but feels stuck and unsure of what step to take next. Thank you to everyone who held the event!"

"I feel the safety I felt combined with the different practices, knowledge and caring of the instructors, the setting, all of these made this a life-changing event for me. My mentality I feel has changed, I am more compassionate with myself, less in contradiction with my world, my trusting that things will work out. I highly recommend this experience."

"It was such a beautiful journey out of time. I connected really quickly to the spirit of the mushrooms as I embarked on a deep introspection through the connection to Pachamama. I received many answers and also some deep messages.
I felt very safe thanks to the beautiful facilitators and the gorgeous surroundings and nature of the place. The daily schedule was so very well put in to prepare us for the journey and to welcome us back for the grounding. All activities were on point, I wouldn't change a thing. Thanks again for this beautiful moment."
-Marion- June 22
“I highly recommend this Sacred Mushroom ceremony. It was a beautiful and transcending experience in a gorgeous retreat
in the hills above Sitges Spain. This is a very comfortable safe space guided by skilled, caring and compassionate facilitators.
I experienced a deep healing, a profound connection with myself, others and nature, while discovering a new dimension to my life. I totally recommend this sacred experience to anyone who is seeking to expand their consciousness.”

"I highly recommend the retreat held by Marion, Suzanne and Robin. It was my first experience with psychedelics so I was a quite uncertain, but the facilitators made me feel very comfortable. They spent time getting to know me and understanding my motives both before the retreat and during it, so it is clear they really care about the well-being of their guests. Their knowledge and experience with plant medicines was also very reassuring and they are very open to welcoming new people into this world.
The ceremony before the consumption of the plant medicine was brilliant. The morning included a light breakfast, an hour of embodiment practice, sharing intentions, the setting of ground rules, music, and a form of prayer. By this point, I was really open and ready to begin my journey. The retreat setting was also beautiful. It was spacious and very homely, with lots of private space. I felt comfortable at all times. I am grateful to have been welcomed into the space.
I learned a huge amount during the weekend. I was also able to finally put into practice many of the things about plant medicine that I had read about before - in a safe space. I left feeling more compassionate towards myself and hopeful about the future. If you think you are "too serious" or "not spiritual enough" to appreciate plant medicine, then this retreat will teach you to open yourself up and explore the tender side of yourself. Thanks again to the team."

"It was my second time returning for a retreat in this lovely villa in Sitges, and that is not without reason. The retreat is nourishing in so many ways – from the actual itinerary to the homemade food and the people hosting it. I will highly recommend this to anyone looking for an experience with mushrooms to go deeper within themselves in a safe container.
The retreat is very well thought through from start to finish. This specific program had live calls before and after the retreat to both set up for and integrate the experience. During the retreat, I felt guided the whole way, dosage was discussed and the whole team knew how to support me in the best way possible. I also learned tools to work with the mushrooms and to have compassion for myself during the experience and in daily life. In addition to the peak mushroom experience, this retreat also provided shadow work, embodiment practices, meditations and sound healing which I found very supportive.
The villa itself feels like a sacred space, where it is easy to let your guard down. The energy is grounded and you can tell there has been put a lot of love into creating a nice environment.
Lastly, I would like to share that Marion and Suzanne are two incredible souls. You can tell that they love holding space, accommodating and caring for people who seek this experience, without overstepping any boundaries."
