"If you are looking for a transformational and awakening experience, please don't walk to Reunion. RUN! What an amazingly beautiful experience that I had for myself and shared with the wonderful people I met there. The staff members in every department were overly accommodating, kind, and knowledgeable. The food was healthy and delicious. The venue and beach were gorgeous and calming. The Shamans were Fantastic. Lastly but Most Importantly, Madre Ayahuasca did her thing. 10 out of 10, highly recommend!
I will certainly return to Reunion if/when I feel called to sit again and I will definitely bring a friend next time....or two! I am forever grateful for the amazing experience! Pura Vida! 🙏🏽"

"The experience at the Reunion was absolutely out of this world. Literally:)
An earthly paradise, tucked away from the worldly hustle and bustle, surrounded with lush tropical forest, teeming with abundant life, that gives way through winding paved paths to a soft sandy beach washed by the playful waves.
As I start tuning my breath into the melodious rhythm of the ocean waves, as I become mesmerized by a calming murmur of the leaves rustling in the warm salty breeze, as my heart gives way to a spell of the sunset spilling its red warmth into the ocean and the horizon sky; my thoughts melt away, and my soul starts souring freely and joyfully high above and deep inside.
And the magic just begins...
The whole place feels Sacred.
The whole place feels as if it is one Big Soul loving, nurturing and taking care of me, watching for my every through the hearts and hands of all the people and the Sacred Mushroom harmoniously serving the Light there. I can't help but totally surrender and trust, open up deeply touched by Love, I can't help but start healing. I cry, I laugh, I sing along, I transform, I remember...
I am so grateful for the whole experience.
Special thanks to Sheldon, Alia, Kevin, Delia and everyone else who made every little detail of my journey very special.
If you feel the Call, this is your place.
P.S. The Rooms and all facilities are immaculately clean, the property is well maintained, and the food is absolutely amazing - I would buy a cookbook if there were one."
"Reunion is a place of integrity, a beautiful community, a village of people who are dedicated to supporting others on their healing journey. My experience exceeded any expectations that I had. Not only is the location extraordinarily beautiful, the energy of the land is sacred, and most importantly the team at Reunion is the most sacred part of it all. Going into my Ayahuasca retreat feeling supported, held and super safe meant everything to me. The attention to detail around the property and during the entire experience was incredible. Not to mention we had the most delicious meals! I have eternal gratitude for every single person making this experience possible. I know one day I’ll find my way back to Reunion. "
"My experience at Reunion is challenging to put into words. I had only briefly tried plant medicine this past spring, and it was a less than ideal experience. I researched heavily to choose the best retreat, and Reunion did not disappoint. I could not have asked for a more profound, deeply healing week. I highly recommend!"
"Reunion really is the most beautiful, magical place to embark on your healing journey. I would not go anywhere else for a plant medicine retreat after experiencing the level of care and attention to detail at Reunion. They care so deeply about every individual there and I’m forever grateful for the love & support I received from the contributors and Shamans. I have come home cleansed physically, mentally & spiritually and I sincerely hope that I can return one day. "
"Beautiful nature and surroundings. Tranquility and peace. Beautiful rooms/ apartments. Wonderful people working there, holding space and ensuring that we get the most as we want out of our experience. Feels so safe and wholehearted. Delicious, fresh, nurturing food."
"Attending the Ayahuasca retreat at Reunion was one of the most life-changing experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, I could sense this was a sacred space designed for deep healing and transformation. The staff's patience, kindness, and genuine love for helping people heal were evident in every interaction. Their format was incredibly well-structured, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the journey with a supportive and knowledgeable team guiding the way.
This wasn’t a place where healing was handed to me on a platter; instead, I had to do the inner work. I arrived with my higher self, ready to face whatever surfaced, and the retreat created the perfect environment for that. Everything I had been suppressing came to light—emotions, memories, and blockages I didn't even know I had. With the gentle guidance of the facilitators, I was able to release these layers of pain and connect deeply with my true essence.
Every part of my experience was profound, from the sacred ceremonies to the heartfelt conversations. I felt an overwhelming sense of peace, joy, and happiness, unlike anything I've ever known. It truly felt like a glimpse of heaven on earth. The healing I received went beyond the physical realm; it touched me spiritually, emotionally, and mentally.
I didn’t want to leave this sanctuary because I had never felt so connected and whole. If you’re considering this retreat, I can wholeheartedly say it’s a place where true healing happens. It’s a journey you have to be ready for, but if you come with an open heart and willingness to dive deep, the experience will be nothing short of miraculous. I am eternally grateful for the transformation I underwent at Reunion and look forward to returning.

"I went to Reunion for their week long Ayahuasca Retreat. It was an amazing experience that will forever change my life, my thoughts about myself, the way that I think about the world, and the way that I treat others. The Shaman was outstanding, kind, wise, and really tuned in to me and everyone else in our group. The entire staff at Reunion is friendly and the most helpful people around. The property and the buildings are gorgeous and extremely well maintained and clean. The food was delicious, I had no idea that eating such healthy foods could taste so good, I am very impressed with the cooking staff. The entire week was very organized and well planned out. Every one in our group of 22 made life changing transformations this week, it was incredibly beautiful and touching to witness and experience. I love this place so much and I will definitely be back again. "
"I have experienced a very popular, very expensive retreat (I will not mention their name) and that did not measure up to what Jacqui and Embracing Your Light has to offer. I was blown away by the professionalism, knowledge, insight, wisdom, luxury and overall 5-star experience. Jacqui should be charging more for what she offers and the impact she has on the work she is so clearly born to do!
I already signed my son up to have this experience too. "
"I had an incredibly healing experience at Reunion. I felt very supported the entire time. I love the non-profit vibes, they focus entirely on the love of helping others heal. I highly recommend Reunion to anyone who feels called to healing with plant medicine. "
"Jacqui is an example of leadership, strength, knowledge, integrity. Jacqui is clearly doing what she was born to do! and she does it well, with grace.
Please give yourself the gift of experiencing Jacqui and the work she does that makes a difference!"
"Seriously the most magical, life-changing experience of my life! This does not discount the challenges I experienced deciding to proceed with a retreat I had no reference for or knowledge of. Especially with this being my first time with psilocybin, and traveling to a different country. Jacqui was amazing from zoom session to after the retreat. She provided all of the information necessary for me to confidently make my decision. She answered all of my questions and concerns, and I had many, she guided me and checked in with me in between, and greeted me upon arrival. She was my guardian angel! Plus - big big plus - she has remained connected with me even after the retreat! Jacqui genuinely cares and I am grateful and pleased that I found her!
Don't miss your opportunity to experience Jacqui and this work that she generously offers! It'll change your life. It changed mine. "
"Overall, I can only say… wonderful and such a beautiful, nurturing setting. I have nothing to compare it to, but have a feeling this is in the top of this kind of experience! Thank you!"
"Being new to this kind of experience, I was a little apprehensive- I immediately felt at ease when Jacqui greeted me the day I arrived. She is a grounded, loving, caring woman that is doing exactly what she is here to do. The word ‘Integrity’ is what comes to me with my interaction and experience with her and the retreat. I felt completely safe and held for this very vulnerable experience – it allowed me to let go into the places that I needed, to accomplish the deep work that we did together and in my journey. I feel blessed to have met her and that she is in my life!"
"Jacqui and her team created a safe, caring and supportive space to allow me to feel comfortable enough to allow myself to let go and let the medicine to do its work.
I felt loved, respected, understood, and heard."
"It has taken me a few days to put into words the life changing experience I had at the all women’s psilocybin retreat in Florissant, CO. My expectations exceeded anything I could have imaged. From start to finish, it felt as if I were at a five start hotel with all the feels and comfort of home. The food was absolutely amazing!! Jacqui and her team created a safe, caring and supportive space to allow me to feel comfortable enough to allow myself to let go and let the medicine to do its work. Everything seems to happen like magic, very well organized and planned out. The agenda was well structured, intentional but not overwhelming. I felt loved, respected, understood and heard. I was surrounded by some amazing, strong women. The ceremony space, rituals maintained the tradition, culture and history of the plant medicine. I cannot wait to experience another retreat. "
"I knew I was seeking something I couldn't quite explain. I had no idea I would be leaving this retreat with answers, clarity, and a fresh new feeling about life. I left feeling ready to LIVE, and life fully. I am recharged and excited about my life and the funny thing is that nothing in my actual life has changed. The experience I had with Jacqui and her staff changed me in a way that feels wholesome, full, and like I can take on the world! I have deep empathy for myself, my experiences, and all of the people around me. I think if everyone had this experience we would be living in an entire different world experience. We would be living in a world filled with compassion and everyone living and offering their natural gifts to each other.
I will be sending my mom to this retreat and then my dad, and the rest of my family too! "
"Jacqui knows what she is doing and she does it well. She seemed to be right where I needed her to be and I didn't even know it until she was there. Jacqui is magical, insightful, professional, and fun. Everyone needs a Jacqui in their life.
I can't say enough good things about what I experienced with Jacqui. She is doing gods work and it is clear she is doing what she is meant to be doing. I am forever grateful that I got to experience Jacqui and the work she offers. "
"I had no idea what to expect but this experience with Jacqui and her staff was way more than I could have imagined. From her professionalism and knowledge, to her nurturing and guidance. I felt safe, cared for, and I had incredible breakthroughs specifically because of Jacqui's wisdom. Again from the professionalism, guidance, support, knowledge, every detail was thought through carefully. The food could have been it's own magical experience. Not only beautifully presented, the taste of every single bite delivered was a treat to my body. This is a retreat that everyone should experience no matter what you are seeking in your life. Do yourself a favor and gift yourself with a retreat with Jacqui and her staff. You will be happy you did. "
"I don't think I have ever felt more safe and supported than I did with Jacqui's guidance. She held my hand through every step of the way and I felt her genuine care for me. Jacqui is an angel on earth. She knows what she is doing and she does it well. "
"Every detail was impeccable. This experience was the best experience of my life. I felt cared for, nourished, and safe during every part of the journey from preparation, to arrival, during journeys, and even after I left. I recommend everyone under the sun to experience a retreat with Jacqui and her team at Embracing Your Light. They are top notch. They know what they are doing and it matters. What they have given me is a life-changing gift. My life has changed in the best possible way after my retreat with Jacqui and her team. "
"My Inward Bound experience was, at times, surprising and even challenging but in all ways illuminating and meaningful. The team of our four facilitators led this amazing process with deep knowledge, experience, creativity, and empathy. In this supportive atmosphere, I connected with myself and the other members of our group in the best possible ways. Beyond that, the comfortable accommodations, beautiful setting, and delicious, wholesome food made the perfect setting for a journey of self-discovery."
"It was my very first experience both with Inwardbound and with psilocybin. I cannot imagine how could it be better or more transforming than it was. In all aspect – it was perfect!
The venue was great, providing all one needs for a retreat like this: beautiful nature, comfortable room, spacious common spaces, delicious healthy food, etc.
I am forever grateful to the amazing Inwardbound team (Rob, Helena and Kalyani) for creating this safe, loving and supportive ceremonial space that allowed me to have this magical, life changing experience.
What a profound journey!"
"Inward Bound is the real deal. Rob, Renee, Darragh and Cristina created a space in time where a diverse group of people with varying intentions and needs opened, shared, sang, danced, laughed, loved and healed together. Delicious food, stunning setting and beautiful people. Go see for yourself. The best retreat I've been on. "
"Every detail of this retreat was well thought out, from the food, to the location, to the medicinal therapeutic ceremonies. The connections I made and the work I was able to do was phenomenal. I felt as though I received years of therapy in only a few days. Jacqui and her team are brilliant and professional. This retreat truly and completely changed my life for the better. "
"I participated in a 5-day psilocybin retreat in the Netherlands. I had a profound experience under the influence of the mushrooms, but equally important was the presence, advice, support and all the activities offered by the therapists/facilitators. They are amazing people, experienced and professional, passionate about what they do and dedicated to ensuring the best, safest and most inspiring setting. Thanks to them, I believe, I can process and integrate the psilocybin experience in a way most beneficial for my healing and growth. They helped me understand how important it is to work with the body, to take a more holistic approach to healing and lifestyle, and they showed me ways to do it. I am immensely grateful not only for the safety they provided, but also for the joy, music, movement and companionship. I can recommend Inwardbound to anyone wanting to experience psilocybin. Don't do it alone, do it with Inwardbound! "
"Cristina is a wise woman, a healer, and a fountain of knowledge. She is a wonderful storyteller with a compassionate and light-hearted spirit. She is a talented singer and musician and has enormous empathy for those around her. "
"Renee is the most genuinely compassionate and kind person I have ever met. She is the perfect combination of professionalism, intelligence, experience, and Mother Earth energy. She is able to see into your heart, and offers advise that pinpoints your challenges and needs. She exudes warmth and love and has the singing voice of an angel."
"Darragh is the perfect combination of humour, fun, joy, experience and professionalism. His knowledge is unsurpassed and his ability to communicate with empathy and true caring is obvious. "
"This is Rob's true calling. The experience he and his fellow facilitators at Inward Bound have created is second to none. He approaches his work with empathy, knowledge, experience and a real love of humanity. Thank you!"
