Details of this retreat

Hey! Curious about psychedelics, but not quite ready for a high dose? Look no further!

In this inspiring workshop, you’ll discover how legal magic truffles work in a safe, accessible, and above all fun way. Without the woo-woo.

We’ve put together a varied program for you. And no, you don’t need any prior experience!

PILOT 🎉
This is our first workshop! A photographer is present. If you do not wish to be recognisable in photos or videos, please let us know before we begin.

GROUP
This workshop is for 6 to 8 participants and 2 guides.

PROGRAM
• Psychedelics crash course
• Low dose of fresh magic truffles (approximately 1 to 5 grams)
• Various accessible exercises (breathwork, meditation, movement, journaling, etc.)
• Walk through the Vliegenbos (part of the walk will be in silence and include mindfulness exercises)
• Listening session (meditative psychedelic music and/or your own music selections)
• Unlimited tea, fresh fruit, healthy snacks, and some tasty soft drinks

TRUFFLE DOSAGE 🍄
Please note: this is not a microdosing workshop. We’ll determine the dosage together in the morning, but you can expect between 1 and 5 grams of fresh truffles ‘atlantis’.

EFFECTS
The effects can vary greatly from person to person. Psychedelics tend to amplify your senses, emotions, and awareness. You may feel light and energized, or more grounded and heavy. Mild nausea is possible. Some people feel a little cold at first and pleasantly warm later on.

Sounds and smells may seem more vivid, and you might even notice some subtle visual effects! Colours can appear richer, light may feel more vibrant, and the world can seem as if it is gently breathing. Music can become deeply immersive, and your thoughts may wander in unexpected directions. A tear, a moment of awe, or a burst of laughter can all be part of the experience.

Because the dosage is low, most people remain fully aware and in control. We will be there throughout the experience to guide you and help create a safe and supportive environment.

FOOD & DRINK
Important! Take the truffles on an empty stomach, around 11:00 AM. Please avoid eating a heavy meal for 3 to 4 hours beforehand. This reduces nausea.

We provide fresh fruit, healthy snacks, tea, and soft drinks. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are not included.

You may find it helpful to bring your own food to eat after the workshop is finished.

WHAT TO BRING ☔️
Please bring comfortable and suitable clothing for both indoor and outdoor activities.
Even if there’s a bit of rain, we’ll still head into the Vliegenbos, so wear shoes that can handle a little mud.

Bottle of water? Always useful. Umbrella or rain jacket? Smart idea too!

ACCESSIBILITY
Please note that the studio is located on the first floor and can only be reached by stairs.
We’ll also be taking a gentle walk through the Vliegenbos, so please keep this in mind if mobility is a concern.

A Truly Personal, Safe, and Soulful One-on-One Retreat in the Netherlands
I recently took part in a one-on-one magic mushroom retreat in the Netherlands, and it was a genuinely special and deeply meaningful experience.
From the very beginning, my guide, Nathan, created an atmosphere of trust and safety. He is incredibly knowledgeable, caring, and grounded, with the perfect balance between professionalism and genuine human warmth. His calm energy and such like-mindedness allowed me to fully open up and feel completely supported throughout the entire process, which made all the difference in getting the most from the experience.
The ceremony itself was beautifully staged and thoughtfully conducted. Nothing felt forced or rushed. Every part flowed naturally and felt intentional, pure, and real. The inclusion of gentle breathwork and yoga beforehand was very grounding and comforting, and the homemade meal afterward was nourishing and clearly prepared with care. There was also plenty of unhurried space to relax, reflect, and talk afterward, which helped everything settle in a very natural way.
The music deserves special mention. Nathan tuned it specifically to me- who I am and what he felt was right for me to guide my trip in a really deep and personal way- it was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. It’s hard to put into words without diminishing it, so I’ll just say it was deeply moving and perfectly held.
Overall, this retreat felt authentic, respectful, and deeply personal. It’s clear that a lot of heart, skill, and integrity goes into what Nathan offers. I will definitely be back, and I would really recommend this experience to anyone looking for a safe, intentional, inspiring and meaningful retreat. It’s also very reasonably priced and conveniently located - only about 30 minutes from Amsterdam Central Station.

A truly exceptional and deeply supported experience
I felt incredibly well taken care of throughout the entire ceremony. Nathan’s competence, experience, and calm leadership impressed me from the very first moment. If you feel called to do something as profound and “crazy” as this, you honestly couldn’t be in better hands. The way he prepares you for the journey — and holds space afterward as well — is highly professional and full of integrity.

The team and fellow participants were also wonderful. Even though I don’t speak Dutch, everyone made a conscious effort to include me, and a lot of the communication naturally shifted to English. This warmth and openness helped me fully relax into the experience and enjoy the adventure.

Castricum itself is beautiful, located right by the sea, and the ceremony room is lovingly and thoughtfully designed. The whole setting felt safe, soulful, and special.

All in all, it was an extraordinary day — one I hope to create space for again in the future.
