"I have gotten so much from practicing with ZCO. It's given me a whole new life. I have come to trust these teachers more and more over time.
Not only are their retreats powerful and wonderful, but they're extremely reasonably priced.
I think this place is underrated. I highly recommend it."

"I have attended some retreats in person. I am glad to have the experience. With Zoom I felt included, and it makes it easier for me to carry the meditations over in my daily life.
The retreat has of course a zen background but any faith or non faith could follow it. This is a yearly retreat about death and loss in our lives. I benefited from the guided visionary meditation. The talks were easy to follow and many were funny. The teachers read from a couple of books wrote by living practitioners that have struggled with both. I have since downloaded both books and will listen to them again.
The teachers would spend 50 min. each day listening to those of us on zoom. And we could ask questions and advise. It felt like our own little community.
Plan to attend every year.

"I had an excellent experience at the Acsauhaya retreat center. The guides are top-notch—very knowledgeable and supportive. The retreat's location is beautiful, surrounded by peaceful nature, which adds a lot to the overall experience.
The ceremonies took place in a yurt, which provided a unique and memorable setting that I won't forget. The house we stayed in was very comfortable and well-equipped. The live music was fantastic, and it helped enhance the atmosphere and the overall experience. The food was also great, offering delicious and nourishing meals that complemented the retreat's holistic approach, especially the mushroom soup, which was just... wholesome.
I definitely recommend Acsauhaya to anyone looking for a well-organized, enriching retreat experience. The combination of great guides, beautiful surroundings, unique ceremony settings, amazing live music, delicious food, and comfortable accommodations makes it a standout choice.

"Shurandy stands out as an exceptional guide in the realm of psychedelic ceremonies. His kindness and extensive knowledge create a welcoming and safe atmosphere for exploration and growth. What truly sets Shurandy apart is his unwavering support and presence. Throughout the ceremony, he ensures that you feel seen and supported, providing reassurance and guidance exactly when you need it the most. His ability to foster a space of trust and openness makes the journey not only transformative but also deeply healing.
I can't recommend Shurandy highly enough for anyone looking to explore psilocybin with a guide who genuinely cares about the group's well-being and spiritual journey.

"A wonderful retreat that broadened my perspective on self and non-self. The teachers are well-informed and explain things in easy to understand language."
"I'm not usually someone that writes reviews but when you have such a wonderful beautiful experience how can I not! The Acsauhaya team are fantastic, they are not only loving, caring and supportive but also experienced, knowledgeable and professional. If you want the best therapeutic outcome you need to trust in your environment and your guides, that is what you get and more with Acsauhaya. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Thank you for my experience, I know my path has been changed forever."
"Heart of Wisom is a wonderful facility. Everyone is so friendly and helpful--from the check-in person to the two dharma teachers, to the participants. They are very flexible and accomodating for people with special needs to allow an optimal experience. Every session and insturction was very well thought out. They provided really yummy snacks and lunch was fabulous! Yum, (all eaten mindfully)! In the afternoon there was a dharma talk by Kodo and then everyone broke up into small groups (in different parts of the building) to discuss how to bring into our daily life the dharma principles that were shared. It was a delightful and restorative experience. Yeah whooppee Buddha!"
"I have been attending one day retreats at ZCO’s Heart of Wisdom temple for many years. The retreats are always great; they give my practice a real boost. I would recommend the one day retreats to those who want to try out more intense Zen meditation sessions before they commit to a longer retreat. And the lunches can be inspirational, too! "
"The teachers and community here are amazing. I highly recommend it. "
"I was touched deeply spending and evening and a day in community with ZCO. with the guidance of Kodo and Kosho I feel like I have better clarity on my vows and the path I want to take in life. I have been coming to HoW for about 3 months and feel more deeply connected to the people and place after this weekend. Thank you for all you do!"
"I came away from the experience with a fresh look at my life. I felt more open, positive, and involved with my surroundings. It helped to renew my feeling of involvement in the world around me. The care of the facilitators was special. They were deeply engaged in the retreat process and brought a great deal of knowledge and experience. They had a great deal of experience and seemed to know how to help. I felt comfortable and at ease during the entire process."
"I had been wanting to have this experience for a long time, and Odyssey with its retreat style, focus on intention and remarkable facilitators was truly the precise way I wanted it to happen.
The facilitators were excellent. They helped set intentions, were tremendously seasoned and gave solid guidance and expectations regarding the mushroom experience. They were also highly helpful and caring during the mushroom experience itself. They treated the whole process with the respect that it deserved, assuring that we didn't take the whole thing lightly.
I loved this experience, felt it was tremendously powerful and meaningful to my life, and that Odyssey has opened the door to a new path for exploration. For many people, I can imagine it being nothing less than a life-changing experience."
"I loved my time with Odyssey. The leadership team and the facilitators were truly unbelievable, caring, professional, and intuitive. Every small detail was taken care of. The psilocybin experience itself was emotive, positive, and therapeutic. Truly a top-class experience."
"My experience was a deep and rich retreat. Resulting in my practice being inspired and nourished.
I am unable to attend retreats and sessions in person due to physical limitations. Want to express my gratitude for these online practice opportunities and the connection they offer."
"Was there for a Loving-Kindness weekend retreat. Such a wonderful space for practice. There is a large plot of land that the monastery is on, perfect for walking around during the breaks on a trail or checking out the garden. The residents seemed like one big family and welcomed us retreat participants in with open arms, so thank you!
The schedule involved lots of sitting and walking meditation in the zendo, which may seem daunting at first if you haven't been to an intensive retreat, but allowed for you to get deeper into your practice. It was a silent retreat, which also sounds scary but allowed one to focus on loving-kindness even outside of the zendo as opposed to small talk with the others participants during free time. All around 10 out of 10"
"I chose to come to a retreat here with Rejuvn after a very difficult couple of years in my life. My relationship breaking down was a main source of pain and after hearing a lot about the use of psilocybin to help with these things I decided to go for it.
The process was intense and challenging for me, but I was really able to see my life from other perspectives and realise my part in the breakdown of my marriage. This was painful but invaluable to me as I feel I am not the same guy as I was before these experiences and incapable of making the same mistakes I have before.
The team were a real life-saver for me. I needed a lot of support during my experience and they stayed with me the entire time, making sure that I was not alone and that I felt safe.
I cannot recommend Rejuvyn and the amazing team there enough. I appreciate the work they do!"
"For me, this experience was truly life-changing. I was able to fully look inside and receive the insights I needed to make sense of behavioral patterns that have held be back for what feels like my entire life. This program has brought a lot of value to my everyday life, in ways that I would not have expected, I feel more positive, confident, and able to handle different stressful situations in a more balanced way. Thank you René for being a wonderful guide throughout this process, I highly recommend!"
"I spend a few beautiful days and I had an amazing psilocybin ceremony with caring facilitators that I am very grateful to. They were very kind and tolerant, the food was amazing and the vibe of the house is lovely and cozy, which makes you feel at home. Once again, thank you for this experience, will surely come back next year :)
Best regards,
Aneta"
"It’s hard to put into words the life-changing affect that Acsauhaya has had on my life so it is truly a privilege to be able to write this. I’m a 43-year-old woman living in London. I’ve struggled with depression for most of my adult life. I’ve tried talking therapies and various medications, but nothing really worked. These past 6-7 years I haven’t been able to feel real joy, love or authentic connection. In August I started to investigate plant medicine and discovered Acsauhaya. There was one space left on an upcoming 5-day Psilocybin group retreat in the Netherlands which included a six-week integration programme. From the very start of my experience with the team I felt safe, seen and supported. My transformational journey had begun.
A video call was arranged a few days prior to my arrival where I was able to meet the rest of my group, our Integration coach and the Acsauhaya team who would be guiding and facilitating our journey. This initial preparation session paved the way for a beautiful and strong bond with my group and allowed me the space to start to set my intentions. Next came set and setting. The centre in the Netherlands is a truly special space surrounded by nature with a very calming energy. From the second I arrived I knew I was in professional and very kind hands. We were welcomed with love and compassion and I felt safe, open and ready for what the medicine would bring. With the guidance of Rene, Dinte and Joe I was able to completely surrender and trust the experience. They are truly special humans; I've never met anyone quite like them. Plus the wonderful Hannah, providing guidance, loving kindness and nourishment throughout the five days by preparing delicious meals for us all.
The experience has been truly transformational; so much so that when I felt called to work with plant medicine again due to unexpected health challenges I called upon Rene and the team once more and I was lucky enough to be part of the first group at their new retreat in Spain. The house and the surrounding space is truly incredible. The neighbouring mountains, the wildlife and the warm breeze offers a very different feel to the Netherlands retreat but equally as special and transformative. The bonus of the sunshine all year round is a true gift. My third journey provided further love and healing but in addition, profound spiritual enlightenment that I truly believe has been life changing for me. I felt enveloped in love and kindness once again and was able to surrender thanks to the support of the team. My depression has lifted and I can wholeheartedly feel again. I honestly cannot thank Acsauhaya enough. I don’t quite have the words that convey the amount of gratitude I have. Thank you. It truly feels as though my life is just beginning xx

"This is the best retreat I have ever attended, such kind and loving people, so much tolerance and heart is put into the best possible experience. My journey was very challenging, but the facilitators made it all so much better, and they are always for you to listen to you, talk with you and spend time together. I felt so safe in there and taken care of, btw the food is so amazing there, I would go vegan with those foods only ! I can't recommend it better, no matter with what you are coming with, it will be attended to without any judgement whatsoever. Love you Rene, Joe, Dinte and lovely Hannah P.S. Panda is hanging on <3 "
"My afternoon at the Great Vow Monastery was marked by kindness and welcome from start to finish. I look forward to returning soon.

"This was a beautiful experience.
We honored our son and spent a peaceful heartwarming afternoon at the monastery.
Added plus, the dinner was great!
Thank you to all who shared the gift of the Jizo Garden"
"I am incredibly grateful to the amazing team at Rejuvyn. I spent a lot of time researching online and reaching out to various retreat centers, and I ultimately chose Rejuvyn, which turned out to be an absolutely life-changing decision for me.
From the moment I began the intake process until the intergration sessions, I was overwhelmed by the love and care that the staff provided. I felt supported and guided throughout the entire retreat, and the experience itself was beyond my wildest dreams.
The psilocybin ceremonies were nothing short of transformative. The food at the retreat was delicious and nourishing. The location was absolutely stunning, providing a peaceful and serene environment for healing. Every little detail was taken care of with such love and care, creating a truly special experience.
The knowledge and expertise of the staff were exceptional, and their ability to infuse humor into the process made the process even more light."
"I have only good words to say about this retreat. The team was incredibly welcoming and made me feel right at ease from the moment I arrived, soothing my nerves. I had done extensive research on psilocybin before finally attending a retreat, and I have to say that the days in Spain far exceeded my best hopes. It’s not only the insights from the experience, but also the love and connection I experience with the team that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. This won’t be my last time! Much love"
"My time at Rejuvyn's Spain location was an amazing experience and one that will remain with me for the rest of my life. Truly transformative, the retreat was everything I hoped it would be as I was completely cared for during my stay.
The team were excellent, as I was quite nervous from my first psychedelic experience; however, René and his guides made me feel completely at ease. They were so supportive and gave me the confidence to go through this process in an empowered way and explained to me everything I needed to know so I could bring the beautiful insights I gained to my everyday life back home.
The location was a dream, the sun and surroundings were the perfect environment to do this transformative work. It really felt like an extra gift to myself. Having the warm sun and pool time really relaxed me and helped me to let go and surrender to the process. Especially after the ceremony I could really feel the healing qualities of the sun rays and being close to nature!
All in all I cannot recommend attending a retreat hosted by Rejuvyn enough, it was an excellent experience, I felt safe and came away reborn!"
"Joe is such a kind and loving person. He’s a steady rock to ground you, a safe and caring guide, and all around a great person."
"A calm, loving and safe guide and yogainstructor. She always has a warm smile and kind nature."
"René is a caring, experienced and very intelligent leader, and just the kind of person you want guiding you through a psycidelic experience, as well as making sure all your needs are taken care of during your stay. "
"From the first minute I arrived I felt I was in safe, and experienced hands. Which for me was very important, since I was terrified doing my first ever ceremony. Was nothing to worry about at all though.
Thanks so much to all the very loving, honest and caring teammembers at Acsauhaya.
I’m never going to another than this retreat 🙏🏼"
