About this Retreat
My mission is to reconnect people like you with their great potential in loving awareness. Create a safe container for inner growth and self development through a holistic approach, for your own benefit and the benefit of all living beings.
I am a Certified Psychologist, that loves to merge my experience with Embodied Yoga, Tantric Rituals and practices, Sadhanas, Reiki, Dance, Life Coaching, Sacred Shadow work, Trauma work, Theta Healing and my passion and love for Medicine Plants.
I see each person as a unique being, with a unique offering, and understand that we all have different ways of seeing the world and life – I meet you here at this safe space, allowing you to express yourself openly, I welcome all.
The beauty of our existence lies where we merge duality, with the understanding that we are all one, in a sea of infinity and differences. In our own uniqueness, we all require different types of healing; let me tailor your experience to exactly what you need.
I will foster your reconnection with your true essence, and re-orient your path to the direction your soul has been yearning for. To be true and authentic are the primary goals, and through this we discover and connect to our potential, and our power as beings. Helping you to discover your talent, your passion, as well as your limiting beliefs, or anything that could be stopping you from becoming the best version of yourself.
Stepping into your power with confidence and love, a strong and grounded belief in yourself, we then become capable of creating the reality we seek.
I was born in Chile, I am now living my dream in Portugal. My life passion is about landscapes, nature, wildness, connection, yoga, authenticity, dance, love and consciousness.
Jeanne Surmont is alternative french-german psychotherapist living and working in Munich and online. Her specialty are trauma therapy and emotional integration. She has 10+ years of experience with Ayahuasca and combines her knowledge of western psychotherapy with the shamanic ways.
As a mindset and transformation coach and psychedelic facilitator, my mission is to help humans to connect to their true essence, to transform their limiting belief systems and start claiming a life full of purpose.
With an interest in personality development and psychology, as well as exploring inner and outer worlds, I have been driven to understand what keeps people from pursuing their dreams & create the life they long for. I am convinced that we can make this world a peaceful and loving place by healing our wounds from the past.
If we are willing to look at our traumas and forgive ourselves for our imperfections, mistakes and insecurities, we can create healing, trust and unconditional love for ourselves and the world around us.
I love guiding my clients through this process of discovering and feeling into their self-sabotaging patterns, which have been blocking them for so many years. By lifting the filter of their perception, they are able to connect on deeper levels and access all the answers which already reside inside them.
This way they finally start to give themselves permission to consciously manifest a life full of purpose and meaning.
I have been on the path of spiritual and personal growth for more than a decade and love accessing expanded states of consciousness with and without substances. As a former photographer and anthropologist, I love to travel the world in order to learn about its peoples, cultures and human behavior. After having lived and worked in various countries around Europe and in Melbourne, Australia, I’ve settled with my partner and our two girls on an old farm on the countryside of east Belgium.
The biggest challenges in my personal life that I have overcome are letting go of a deep sense of guilt, transforming a long lasting people pleaser syndrome and re-establishing my self-worth. I have also healed deep rooted codependency patterns, anxieties and overcoming two traumatic birth experiences.
Transforming my own childhood traumas with tenderness, has helped me to be a more compassionate mother and to guide my children to become confident, open-minded and creative human beings who engage in this world with an open heart.
When I’m not working you’ll find me on the ecstatic dance floor, playing with my children, gardening, writing, meditating, practicing yoga and studying a variety of topics. I love to be inspired and to inspire.
Hey, I’m Karlijn,
I work as a psychedelic facilitator and therapist in the Netherlands. I’m here to bring people back to the wisdom of their hearts, the place where all answers can be found. I believe that we are our very own medicine men and women. We have the potential to heal ourselves from within. I’m on a mission to share this medicine with the world, for those who are ready to step into the potential of our authentic selves and live a life from love, trust, and purpose.
In my work with clients, I facilitate from a place of deep inner knowing. I create a safe space for you to journey deep into your own inner world. In this sacred space, I invite you to welcome everything that wants to be seen, felt, and expressed. This is where the process of transformation, healing and growth will take place.
After my Master’s Degree in 2011, I worked for several years as an HR Consultant for the corporate world. I felt disconnected from my own heart and the world around me. I didn’t feel at home in myself. I tried to work hard to ‘become’ someone. It was never enough. It made me sick. My soul whispered that there was more than earning money and trying to fit in a system that didn’t resonate with me. Ayahuasca, the Mother Plant, ‘called’ and my first journey with her expanded my consciousness tremendously. This was the starting point of many journeys and deep inner work. I feel grateful that I had the opportunity to learn and work with the Indigenous tribes from South America and western traditions.
At some point, I felt a deep inner calling to facilitate other people in their transformation processes. I started an intense one-year training in transformation and shamanism. During this year I learned how to facilitate sacred ceremonies. Since 2018, I’ve been devoting myself to working with the medicine in a therapeutic setting. I’m deeply touched by the transformation processes of the people I work with.
My biggest life lesson is that I learned to change my life from a state of survival to a state of (self)love, trust and surrender to the unknown. I know that everything is connected, and we are part of a bigger whole. Sometimes we need to embrace the darkness in order to see the light.
Besides working with clients, I love to make long hikes in nature. On Friday evenings you probably find me on the ecstatic dance floor. I live in the forest in my tiny house where I enjoy the beauty of the seasons. Community life is what makes my heart sing. Making fires and having beautiful and heart-opening conversations with my friends and family. Heart-based living in connection with myself, the people around me and nature is what I stand for.

The Shift Retreat will be 6 Days to Rediscover your Path, Find Clarity and Create Lasting Change.
The Shift is a Retreat Experience of Deep Personal Growth, Clarity, Direction and Togetherness.
The week will include 2 x Psilocybin Ceremonies, 2x Microdosing Psilocybin experiences, Integration Therapy, Trauma Resolution, Deep Emotional Support, Vegan or Vegetarian Food cooked by our private chef and Luxury Accommodation and of course some Fun!
We will offer only 12 places to this retreat to insure maximum attention for each participant and an intimate setting.
SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE: We will use the Psychedelic substance Psilocybin during this retreat, which is a mind-altering substance found in magic mushrooms and truffles that is known to provide breakthrough experiences of spiritual nature. Not only does it show us a different perspective on our lives and our problems, it helps us to find answers deep inside of us and how to lead a more fulfilling life. Psilocybin has also shown excellent results in clinical trials to be a promising tool to help cure depression and anxiety.
CLARITY: During this retreat you will learn how to work with spirituality in such a way that you can have access to the parts of your subconscious mind which hold the answers that you need. Through this you will learn self-trust, intuitive knowing and an understanding for why your life has been the way it has been.
CHANGE: You will learn how to move forward in your life. This retreat is not a “pause” on your regular life, providing enough of a break to sustain you to go back to your old ways, allowing you to temporarily “cope” again . This retreat is “A SHIFT”. It is an opening to discover why you are stuck and discover how to create movement to carry you forward because going backwards … is no longer an option.
TOGETHERNESS: During this week you will learn the strength in vulnerability, the power of vulnerability and the joy, relief and freedom you can receive through your own expression of vulnerability. Allow us to support you, hold you and to create a safe space of authenticity together where we can cry, laugh, scream, rage, release our pain, our fears, our shame and our beauty in absolute safety and celebration.
About The Retreat Leaders:
We are Experts in the Field of Consciousness as well as being Integration Therapists and Transformational life mentors with 10+ years experience in the field. We catalyse our clients into personal and spiritual growth by resetting unseen subconscious patterns which are dictating the unwanted direction of a persons’ life, while providing tools to positively reprogram the mind and creating new and clear energetic points of manifestation through emotional release.
In 2017 we introduced the therapeutic use of psilocybin to our programme after the profound success we experienced in our personal lives through combining psychedelics with the therapeutic tools that we offer our clients. As pioneers in this exciting field, we have now guided 100’s of people from all around the globe through altered states of consciousness, sharing our knowledge, experience, expertise and passion.
We want you to experience A Whole New High: which is not only a whole new way to experience psychedelics, but a a whole new way to experience life.
Why work with Psychedelics? Psychedelics are psychoactive substances that induce a spiritual experience. They offer opportunities that go beyond what is offered in spiritual traditions or psychotherapy sessions. They bring us into non-ordinary states of consciousness and help us to unfold our personality. Insights that may take years for people to achieve through meditation and learning, if they even arise at all, can be revealed within moments during an experience with psychedelics. Even so-called “bad trips” and breakdowns can be turned into a process of moving through the pain into the direction of release, liberation and awakening. A journey deep into the unconscious, with the right guidance, preparation and integration not only offers highly therapeutic benefits, it also moves further into the spiritual spheres of the transcendence of the self and toward the formation of a whole new life!
