Experiences on Retreat
"Abi was a wonderful guide from before we even left on the retreat and still after we’ve got back to regular life. She checked in several times, walked us through what to expect & how to prepare before we left to ensure a positive experience. She was wonderful once we arrived, kept us well-fed, made sure we were all comfortable & had what we needed. Abi is a great person and we were so fortunate to have her helping guide us through our first Aya experience. "
"Milena is the real deal. She guided us from the very beginning, before we even left for our retreat, checked in multiple times and showed a sincere interest in making sure our experience would be great. She made us delicious healthy food every day, checked in with everyone often and did everything possible to ensure a safe and positive retreat. Couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide us in our first Aya experience. "
"This retreat my husband and I went on was the best retreat we never knew we needed. Milena and Abi reached out right away, scheduled several video calls with us before we left so we knew what to expect and to ensure the best experience when we arrived. Each day was wonderful- the ceremonies, the people, and their guidance throughout. Great memories of sitting around the fire together, watching the stars and experiencing the universe in a new way. They made us delicious, healthy meals and snacks & were watching after everyone constantly to make sure we had everything we needed. Would recommend this to anyone looking to expand their horizons, spirituality or healing. It was a 5 star experience for a much more reasonable price than anything else we could find. You won’t find better people to guide you. "
"I attended the Life Vows Weekend Retreat. The Retreat provided a balance of private and shared time that allowed me to fully engage in creating my first Vow. The leaders and attendees were very welcoming and supportive. After a long hiatus away from Zen Community of Oregon, it was a wonderful way to start the New Year and reconnect with my self and others. . "
"Abi gives a relaxed, happy, and humorous energy, and will have good one to one converstions when you need one. Abi compliments Milena beautifully and Milena compliments Abi beautifully. I'm thankful to have found them.
"
"She is helpful, friendly, open, and professional. Milena has helping people in mind but still gives you space if you need it. "
"Great food and energy. Very loving and thoughtful hosts. I recommend this to anyone wanting help processing their past, and/or elaboration of their humanity."
"Melina and Abi facilitated an extraordinary retreat and group experience!
I had the opportunity to go deep into my own individual experience as well as witness and discuss other people's experiences and energy.
This retreat was profound for me and expansive for my growth! I very much look forward to doing it again sometime."
"Abi makes you feel so comfortable and explains things perfectly for you before going into it. She was very in tune with everyone’s needs during each ceremony and I can not thank her enough for my experience. "
"I can not thank Milena enough for making my and everyone’s experience so lovely at the retreat. She is the perfect mix of being there for you and giving you space to work through things. "
"Abbi and Milena are true healers and the real deal. I am so grateful for them and my journal in my retreat with them. They are the perfect amount of support while still allowing you to do the work with the medicine. I recommend them to anyone. Will definitely see them again in the future!✨"
"Really enjoyed the sound bath that was put on for the winter solstice. So peaceful and well done.
The grounds are beautiful as well. Looking forward to coming back when it’s warmer to enjoy the forest for all it is. "
"I have had the joy and restoration of visiting The Osage Forest of Peace for over 15 years. As the years have passed, with the staff and board and donors prayerful attention it continues to be a place that renews me and the others who come. It is a pocket of peace indeed. Thank you all for your lived out grace, acceptance, care, prayer, mediations, and commitment to this globous interfaith retreat. It is a place that exemplifies the truth of "all shall be well." "
"This was a very important experience for me and among the most meaningful in my life. Going with Odyssey just made the most sense for me, and I found them to be a well organized, caring, professional group.
The facilitators were excellent."
"This retreat was life changing for me. I have been in therapy for 8 years. Therapy has helped with many aspects of my life, but the Journey through Odyssey helped me identify problems I didn't know I was battling. The care to detail on this Journey was the highest quality. I haven't felt this relaxed in decades. "
"“I had a transformative experience at Odyssey. The facilitators were knowledgeable, professional, caring, and attentive. Leadership went well above my expectations to create an unforgettable experience. I would highly recommend Odyssey to others .”"
"This experience, from the moment I booked until the present moment, has significantly changed the trajectory of my life in a positive way. My hope from this experience was peace. I wanted to minimize the constant internal battle, thoughts, negative self-talk, etc. This experience took me on a journey of learning who I am and all the reasons I should love the person I have become. Additionally, each step of the process was meaningful, beneficial, and far exceeded anything I could have expected. The staff were some of the most amazing human beings I have ever met. It was evident they were truly called to this work. If you are hesitant on booking, I want to encourage you to- you will not regret it! "
"Here at Pachamama I found a safe and healing sanctuary that facilitated me to experience deep healing processes. This was my first time experiencing the Medicine. Each person I spoke to from the sanctuary treated me with respect and the full attention of their time when I asked any and every question. Working with nervous , scientific, and critical people cannot be a simple task. I come from a professional medical background.
I felt seen, and heard, and held here. I felt that my own spirituality was respected and that I could come here as my authentic self without any pretense. I also felt that the sanctuary here is safe for you to explore your inner self but also welcomes the special opportunity to also share and connect with the community of people embarking on the journey with you . I found that the individual discussions that organically arose over tea or sitting in the kitchen together were also deeply helpful and meaningful to me. Being around the vulnerability and group sharing of other participants facilitated a large portion of my own healing process and inner acceptance.
No aspect of my weekend here felt forced or unsafe. I came in with some trepidation and fear, but like others mention that seemed to melt away on my journey driving here. The guides attended to my physical needs in arcane and graceful manners , I am still in such awe of how they took care of me here.
I feel so incredibly grateful for the multitudes of manners in which each person at Pachamama served me , held me, guided me, and even allowed me the privacy and space to completely break down ( and then return from that state -in grace even- with a profound sense of relief.)
I absolutely cannot wait to give back in service what I have been given here . I followed all of the guidelines and truly believe that the mission here honors the sacred old ways of this medicine , as well as helps facilitate its safe expansion to new corners of the human population.
My work within myself is only just beginning, and I look forward to giving back to others using my new perspectives and tools. I am so grateful to have found this place, and to Derek for personally reaching out to me when I had questions, to Amy, and Leandro, and Arkawa, and to each Guide that helped me on my journey, they know who they are. "
"I participated in Odyssey's grief retreat, and found it truly profound—something you have to experience firsthand to fully understand.
The program was well thought out, with each step of the journey carefully planned. The facilitators were supportive, ensuring we felt cared for at every turn. The emphasis on integration, even after the experience concludes, was particularly meaningful and may be one of the most valuable aspects of the journey.
Before choosing Odyssey, I thoroughly researched numerous organizations offering psilocybin experiences. My initial meeting with Gabe immediately put me at ease; this was my first time considering something like this, and I needed to feel safe. The fact that Odyssey's program was combined with a grief retreat was the deciding factor for me, as that was exactly what I was seeking. Now, I can say that I made the right choice.
The facilitators were knowledgeable about plant medicine and grief—two areas that were equally important to me. Their experience with grief work made all the difference. They were compassionate, patient, and fully committed, giving so much of themselves to each attendee. It was clear that they truly cared about everyone in the group.
One aspect I particularly appreciated was the opportunity to visit the facility the day before we began working with the plant medicine. This planning allowed our bodies and minds to recognize the space as safe and welcoming—a detail that meant a lot to me.
The experience itself may not unfold in the way you anticipate, but it will be the experience you need. You will be well cared for and deeply supported. I'm so glad I chose to work with Odyssey"
"I love the Osage Forest Of Peace. I had a great weekend retreat there. My cabin was comfortable and I enjoyed hiking the forest. The food was delicious and the overall atmosphere was one of peace and calm. This place is such a gem! "
"Weekend at Ratna Ling any time of year is a gift and especially in the winter. The towering redwoods stand sentry around the spacious, cozy cabins. The heated lodge floor adds a special layer of comfort as you make your way to the yoga mat. Views of redwoods and hills and meadows and native landscaping are framed by the large windows in every room. At night, the moonlight streams in and stars twinkle. It is dark - no ambient light; and it's silent - no traffic. The vegetarian meals are sumptuous and nurturing. The company of like-minded individuals can be as restorative as silence. At Ratna Ling, you choose to interact, to retreat, to engage, to shelter or any mix that suits you. Ratna Ling is where my tranquility is restored, season after season, after season. I invite you to explore Ratna Ling, anytime. Namaste."
"After just returning from this magical place, I want to share with others how important it is to get away, if even for a weekend, to re-charge, go inward and be part of a beautiful community commited to making the world a better place, starting with ourselves. The cabins, the staff, the food, are worth your time and investment!"
"My wife and I just finished leading a weekend retreat at Ratna Ling, truly as the name implies, a jewel of a place. It is perhaps the 6th time we are held our events here, and it is consistently one of the best places in the world were we get the privilege to share our yoga with people. The setting is beautiful, the lodgings wonderful, the vegetarian cuisine delicious and plentiful and the staff attentive and always helpful. We love this place and can't wait to return in 2025! "
"The facility is spotless with a serenity that invites you to relax and enjoy nature. Food is phenomenal.—tasty and very nutritious."
"hello
My retreat was great met alot of interesting people from everywhere as far as Brazil and China most people were from New Jersey. The food was great. I was in the yoga class on a chair and then decided I wanted to sit on the mat i miss and landed on the floor. There was so many people that just jumped out to help me. The place is very peaceful it feels like one big family. Catherine Asaro "
"From the minute we all met as a group, I knew this experience was going to be something special. But the weekend itself continued to far exceed my expectations. The facilitators and others in the group quickly felt like family and bonding with them became my favorite part. We met as strangers, but left as soulful friends who collectively shared an experience that was unique and very special to just us. I carry the journey with me daily now and it has changed my view of myself and the world around me. We are still in touch and are already planning to regroup next year! Make the journey. It is truly a gift to yourself. "
"I was so anxious to do this. But I did it anyway. I had no idea the power and the wisdom of the plant medicine. I was clearly shown where my heart has been blocked and why. I also got to experience the unexplainable brilliance and beauty of all life and that I am a part of it all. For me, it was hard work as I had to face feelings I have been running from my whole life. The discomfort was necessary and ultimately liberating. One of the greatest decisions of my life."
"I just sat with ayahuasca at Pachamama this past weekend and I am overflowing with gratitude for the experience and the level of service that I received. Derek and the team provided the highest level of care and service that I've ever received at a ceremony before. Juan was amazing and the whole experience was so beautiful and well thought out. One of my friends that I've done medicine with in the past asked me how Pachamama compared to the other experiences I've had and, without hesitation, I told her that it was, hands down, the best. Thank you so much for this beautiful experience. I felt so incredibly nurtured, held, and cared for. I will definitely be back."
"I am from Ohio and recently went through some life transitions. When considering where I would like to heal, I immediately decided that I would travel to the Forest. This is the place where I feel safe, where I encounter the Divine Mother, where I can rest. "
