Embark on a 13-day transformative journey combining soulful adventure, cultural immersion, and profound personal development.
This expanded experience places human connection and inner transformation at its core, offering us a unique blend of spiritual, creative, and healing practices. Alongside trekking in the majestic Himalayan mountains and engaging in daily meditation, yoga, and breathwork, we also explore the sacred realm of mushroom medicine in a safe, guided ceremony.
These three additional days are dedicated to deep inner work through the ancient wisdom of plant medicine, creating a powerful opportunity for healing, self-discovery, and awakening. Throughout the whole journey, practices like land art and heartfelt connection circles foster creativity, presence, and meaningful relationships.
This is a life-changing experience designed to help us conquer not only physical mountains but also the inner challenges that lead to greater self-awareness, clarity, and connection to our true selves.
