Eleusinia 4-Day Psilocybin and DMT Weekend Retreat

I came to the retreat with a history of depression and anxiety. My expectations for results were very low. The experience with mushrooms was not only safe and helpful the experience was delightful. I came home with hope, something I felt I had lost. Lovely grounds and nice accommodations. Food was good. Buyer beware: they do not disclose pricing of the two different cocktails of medicine (mushrooms). One offers a mild dose of Ativan USA 25.00. (Shirley Cocktail) They do push sleep vitamins and I said no but he left some anyway and that was an additional 25.00 up charge that they didn’t mention until you have left the facilities. Also a 2% charge on your credit card. I honestly am very disappointed in the way they go about charging for these (therapies). An upfront price menu on the website is necessary and full disclosure at the time of consumption would be nice. The hidden costs did cheapen the entire experience. So bring your wallet when you come.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. We're truly grateful you chose to join us and glad to hear that the retreat brought a renewed sense of hope. It’s wonderful to know that you felt safe and supported throughout your experience, and that the setting, food, and overall atmosphere contributed positively to your journey.

I also want to thank you for your thoughtful feedback regarding billing and transparency. We apologize for not having the final bill ready before your departure. With our condensed 4-day schedule, we prioritize every minute to ensure that guests get the most out of their time with us. As you may recall, on the morning of your group’s departure, one guest forgot a suitcase and we had a team member rushing to deliver it to the van before it left for the airport. Situations like this reflect our emphasis on guest care and comfort, and administrative details—such as reviewing which optional items were used—are finalized after guests have left, much like at a hotel.

To clarify for future guests reading this: we offer a multi-tiered nausea and anxiety support system for macrodose sessions. The standard protocol, including a base anti-nausea medication, is included in every program at no additional charge. For those who choose to opt into our more comprehensive protocols, which include extra medications for added comfort, a $25 fee is applied. These are entirely optional and are sometimes recommended especially for individuals with a history of severe nausea with psychedelics or specific medical or psychiatric considerations.

Regarding the sleep support supplements: these are placed in rooms in advance so guests have access to them immediately if needed—particularly overnight. The supplements are only charged if opened and used during the retreat. This approach helps ensure no one is left without support in the moment, even if they were unsure earlier in the day whether they’d want or need it. I apologize if this wasn't communicated clearly enough.

Lastly, the final billing statement was emailed just a few hours after your departure, along with a request to review it for accuracy and let us know if any adjustments were needed. As soon as there was any indication that certain charges may not have been clearly communicated, we promptly refunded the cost of those optional amenities—no questions asked. We always aim to err on the side of fairness and are more than happy to make things right when there’s any doubt.

We appreciate your honest input—it helps us improve and refine our communication and systems. Most importantly, we’re honored to have been part of your healing process, and we wish you continued peace and well-being.

Warmly,

Jessica

This was an experience I'm glad I took. I had never done psychedelics before and wanted the experience but did not want to do it on my one. My daughter found this place and we went as a family to heal some past wounds and the bounding and togetherness we share at the retreat was so helpful in our healing process. The staff became family because of the care and attention they provide. They are really there to help and I can't imagine a more loving and caring group of people. They had medical people on the staff so that alleviated any apprehensions I had with the experience. My journey's with Mushrooms, (Macro dose/Mini dose) and DMT were spiritual and healed some of my past wounds. I will be forever grateful for the experience and the help of all who were there to support. I discovered new breathing techniques to help with my anxiety and meditation practices.

I contacted Eleusinia in June 2022, but life (and bringing other people along) delayed my visit until May 2025. I'm glad it happened this way—doing it together with them made it more meaningful.
I came because I was tired of feeling stuck and wanted a real shift. I'd been in therapy and on antidepressants (passively coping), but needed something deeper.
The macro session had the most impact. It hit hard, but in a way that helped me see clearly. The DMT was okay. I didn't break through, but I feel more comfortable with it now.
The prep helped, especially the breathwork and tips on how to stay present, especially the TRE.
The on-site medical team was a big reason I chose Eleusinia. They made me feel safe enough to let go. That and the science-based approach made it stand out from other retreats I looked into.
Eleusinia exceeded my expectations in terms of how grounded and professional everything was. I left feeling more connected to myself and the tools I'll keep using and the network provided.
100% confident I chose the right place. And the caramel lava cake was bomb? Read More

I recently attended a psilocybin mushroom retreat at Eleusinia, and the experience was nothing short of transformative. From the moment I arrived, there was a palpable sense of calm.

The facilitators were experienced, deeply compassionate, and incredibly grounded. They provided an environment that felt not just safe, but sacred. Every aspect of the retreat was thoughtfully curated to support deep inner work.

The psilocybin ceremony itself was guided with respect and reverence. Surrounded by nature, I was able to navigate profound emotional releases and an overwhelming sense of interconnectedness.

Integration was a major focus of the retreat, and I appreciated how much attention was given to helping us bring our insights back into daily life, including one-on-one coaching.

This retreat wasn’t just a psychedelic experience — it was a deep dive into healing, self-acceptance, and transformation. I can’t recommend it enough. Read More

I've been to Eleusinia twice in the last three years and plan to make this an annual trip.

The staff, accommodations, grounds, and cuisine are fantastic.

Everyone should experience this magical place at least once in their lifetime. It is truly life-changing. Read More
