Schedule

Day 1 — Arrival, Orientation & Preparation
Arrival day is focused on orientation and preparation. Guests arrive in the afternoon at Eleusinia’s private mountain estate, traveling by private shuttle from Mexico City. A welcome snack of tamales and champurrado sets the tone, followed by intake meetings with our medical team to ensure comfort and safety. The afternoon continues with a neuroscience-based presentation on psychedelics and a welcoming session with our curandera. This onboarding process provides both context and grounding, preparing guests for the psychedelic work that begins the very next day.

Day 2 — Psilocybin Macrodose
The morning begins with guidance on navigating altered states, followed by breathwork, meditation, somatic awareness, and gentle biomechanical movement to calm the nervous system and prepare the body for psychedelic processing.
The macrodose begins together in The Nest before unfolding into individualized journeys across the gardens and retreat spaces. Guests explore thoughtfully designed stations including hammocks, private alcoves, cocooned seating, and indoor areas with expansive vistas, supported at a 1:2 facilitator ratio using neuroscience-based grounding and emotional regulation techniques. The experience lasts approximately 4–6 hours, followed by dinner, journaling, and informal reflection around cozy fireplaces.

Day 3 — DMT, Integration & Massage
This day begins with an educational orientation on DMT, including practical coaching on comfortable inhalation and vaporization techniques. Guests then follow personalized schedules that include a private DMT session, integration activities to process the previous day’s experiences, a massage, and a group meditation class.

Day 4 — Excursions, Minidose, & Closing Ceremony
As the retreat moves toward completion, guests may choose to spend the morning on local excursions or remain onsite for a third DMT session, offered to participants in the extraction class. In the afternoon, a psilocybin minidose is paired with breathwork and meditation, providing a gentle way to integrate the week’s experiences. The day concludes with a celebratory cacao ceremony after dinner, a communal closing that marks the transition from retreat back into daily life.

Day 5 — Departure
A final breakfast is served at 8:00 AM, followed by a 9:30 AM shuttle departure back to Mexico City.

Great Experience

I had a genuinely great experience at Eleusinia. This was my second retreat of this kind, as I’ve been trying to go deeper and better understand myself and life in general.

What really sets Eleusinia apart is how small and intentional it is. There are no more than 14 people, which makes the whole experience feel personal and focused. The owners are there every day, fully involved, and you can tell they truly care about each person having a meaningful experience.

The accommodations were excellent. My room and bathroom felt very high-end, and the overall property was beautiful and well maintained. The staff across the board were top-notch, and the food was consistently great.

I’d recommend this place to someone just starting to explore their subconscious, as well as someone more experienced who’s looking to try a different approach with psilocybin or DMT, especially if they’ve already worked with things like ayahuasca or mescaline.

One thing to know going in: this is less about spirituality and more about using these tools in a therapeutic, practical way, including reducing reliance on traditional pharmaceuticals. If you’re looking for a heavily spiritual experience, this may not be that. But the medical team is excellent, and I felt very well taken care of throughout.

Overall, I left feeling clearer, more grounded, and genuinely grateful for the experience. It’s the kind of place that stays with you after you leave, in a good way. If you’re thoughtful about your growth and open to a different kind of approach, Eleusinia is absolutely worth it

Simply the best psychedelic retreat.

I’ve been to Eleusinia 3 times now, and I just love everything about it. Jess & Jay have created the best container to have a psychedelic experience. Their knowledge is outstanding, the classes they provide are detailed, the breathwork and meditation sessions are amazing, the Temazcal experience is wonderful, and the food is absolutely top notch.

I’ve been to other retreats, but I keep coming back to Eleusinia because it feels like a home away from home. I love everyone there: Jess, Jay, Josefina, Emilio, Tonya, Andrew, Frank, Ari, and the rest of the staff. They are supportive, experienced, compassionate, and empathetic towards everyone.

They provide an extremely safe environment with lots of tools to assist with your experience. They also have licensed, currently practicing medical staff with many decades of experience in emergency care. It’s probably the safest place to have an experience, heal, or just explore the internal universe.

I’ve gone for pain management, healing trauma from my childhood, for meditation and enjoyment. And for those wondering if this retreat is everything it claims to be — YES it is! I can’t describe how wonderful it is. It’s the most beautiful setting and the nature feels out of this world. The property is very well maintained and there is so much space for everyone. I love to walk around and smell the flowers, listen to the birds and their songs as they echo through the gorgeous valley.

I will continue returning provided I can, and I highly recommend attending if you are able to. I can’t wait until my next visit!

A gift to yourself

"Taking the risk to attend this retreat was one of the best decisions I’ve made. They created a safe and supportive container for deep work. The meditation sessions were powerful and the food was amazing. If you are on the fence, I highly recommend this experience. It was truly a gift." Thank you to the entire Eleusinia team!🙏

Profound perspective change!

Eleusinia improved my perspective in a profound way. They prepare and manage every detail for you to have a life changing experience in a safe and long lasting way. It's not hyperbole to say it's a life changing experience. It's not just the medicinal mushrooms that cause a grounding, unifying epiphany, it's also the cradling forest and loving staff. The forest and gardens were extremely meaningful to me, but the professionally trained staff provided so much love and safety, they were a huge part of the healing process. I became a stronger, more confident person, with a deep sense that everything was going to be okay.

I was buried under grief, a shell of my strong self, and facing more eminent loss. Super fragile. I was scared to hand control over to a retreat to... "shuffle the deck". But from the bottom, I made a great decision choosing Eleusinia. I believed mushrooms could help me, but I didn't want a clinical experience. I certainly didn't want a teenage rave and I didn't want a hokey shaman experience either. Eleusinia was the perfect combination of science and knowledge meets nature and kindness. They teach you why and how classic psychedelics can have such a meaningful impact on the brain. How it can clean your serotonin receptors. How to integrate the feeling of unity and strength into your everyday life.

It does take a little grit and a little trust to transform ones self so quickly. But the luxury rooms and delicious abundant food help a lot too! My room was like a 5 star hotel. I loved my fireplace, my view, my bed, my privacy. You don't have to participate in a group experience if you don't want to. You can retreat to your beautiful room and eat all night if you want to. I did come out of my shell and really enjoy recapping parts of my intimate journey with other participants, but you don't have to. It's a wild ride, exhausting and exhilarating and ultimately extremely rejuvenating.

A Life Changing Experience

It has taken me some time to communicate what I experienced at Eleusinia. I went there with no expectations. I just needed some relief from the grief and trauma that I couldn’t heal from. I was paralyzed emotionally and had lost my passion for living, an internal fault line, a void. Nothing in Western medicine that I had tried was working.

What I encountered at Eleusinia was an extraordinary cathartic journey back to my true self and peace, finally peace. Really, a miracle for me to find such an authentic, science-based solution delivered by such caring experts in an incredibly beautiful setting.

I have already booked my return to Eleusinia to further explore my inner potential and be free to be happy. I didn’t think it was possible. Thank you, Eleusinia
