"It was my first time taking going deeper with psilocybin, and I have no regrets whatsoever.
Aleece and Wouter are amazing people who are truly trustworthy and committed to taking the best care of you. Wouter kindly picked me up from Alicante and brought me to their picturesque location in the mountains. Upon arrival, I was warmly welcomed by Aleece, and we began the retreat.
I felt completely at ease, allowing the psilocybin to work its magic. The experience was profound and transformative. Returning to reality afterward was a joy, as I sat outside with Wouter and Aleece, chatting and soaking in the beauty of the surroundings.
The most crucial takeaway from the experience is to reflect on and integrate the insights and realizations you receive during the session. Make an effort to incorporate them into your daily routine; otherwise, they may fade away."

"I stayed at La Mezquita for the introduction weekend and honestly can’t recommend it highly enough. The team are all really wonderful people and they ensured that my experience was the best it possibly could be. The food, the accommodation, the activities were all exceptional but the live music on the first night and stunningly located mountain day led to some great memories to last a lifetime. Thanks La Mezquita for an unforgettable weekend."
"Leon is a kind-hearted and grounded guide whose ceremonies are as beautiful as they are healing. He creates a sacred space where everyone feels held and honored, leading each ritual with a gentle strength that invites participants to go deep. A talented guitarist, Leon infuses his music with emotion, and each note adds a layer of beauty and depth to the experience. His kindness and sincerity make him a truly exceptional presence on this journey."
"Camilo has a gentle yet powerful presence, embodying a wisdom and purity that shine through in everything he does. As a yoga teacher and meditation guide, he brings incredible depth to each practice, helping others to connect with their own inner peace. His knowledge of spirituality, world religions, and the history of plant medicine is astounding, especially given his youth, and he shares this wisdom with humility and genuine enthusiasm. His spirit is uplifting, and his care for others is always felt."
"Miriam is a truly radiant soul, carrying a warmth that reaches everyone she meets. Her presence is both calming and inspiring, and she brings profound compassion and insight to her work as a psychotherapist. With a rare combination of intelligence and sensitivity, Miriam guides you through the process with care and understanding, making each step feel safe and transformative. Sings like an angel."
"La Mezquita is a truly magical place, led by warm, compassionate people who create a safe and transformative environment for anyone seeking deeper insights. My weekend there was profoundly moving, a journey beyond all expectations. The ceremonies were masterfully crafted, each detail carefully considered. The live music was mesmerizing, amplifying the experience with rhythms that connected us to the moment and to each other in ways that felt almost otherworldly.
The outdoor ceremony in the mountains was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. Surrounded by the raw beauty of the landscape, the San Pedro and mushroom ceremony was profoundly grounding, guiding me into deep layers of my own being where I encountered and released emotions I was holding. It was a journey of vulnerability and healing, as if the medicine and the sacred space around us unlocked parts of myself, allowing me to let go and feel a profound sense of liberation. The mountains, the stars, and the incredible energy of the space all heightened the journey, creating memories and insights I’ll carry with me forever.
A huge thank you to the beautiful souls at La Mezquita for such a life-changing weekend. I’m so grateful and can’t wait to return! ✨

"It was very great. My first experience with magic mushroom, I was pretty anxious but Aleece and Arjan were very efficient at making it a confortable experience for me. It was a wonderful, it really gave me what I was expecting and I'm very glad that I did it. Thanks again, and I'll probably come back next year."
"Wouter and Aleece are wonderful hosts putting me at ease totally. They explain everything very clearly and are very open to questions. I have never done anything like this and at 71 years of age, was somewhat nervous going into it. The room was so comfortable, calming and just made me feel very safe along with the knowledge that they were constantly there to reassure and give whatever was needed. I don't think I have ever opened up to strangers as I did with them. I can honestly say this experience has changed my life. I went into it feeling traumatised from recent events, exhausted, angry and in pain. I came out of it feeling more relaxed and at peace than I have for years and what surprised me the most, was the physical lessening of the pain. I guess when you are that tense it increases pain. I fully intend to do it again in the future and would highly recommend them to anyone who wants to give it try."
"So now it’s has been five days since my experience with medicine. It’s been extremely intense all the way emotionally, somatic and vivid and complex visual imagery. Lots of sadness and pain came out of my being. I am still processing it and honestly I have not figured out how it impacted me in the long term. All I can say is that I don’t recognise myself as I used to know myself. I feel like I am detached from what I know I was… not really comfortable feeling or unknown feeling?..
I have definitely hard times with integrating my experience but hopefully I will land in my new self in peace and joy. I came here with intention to break through my depression I deal with like 15 years.
Aleece and Wauter were friendly and I felt I could trust them which gave me the opportunity to let go of control during my trip and turn all my focus internally. Thank you guys 🙏 and a special thanks to this wonderful doggie Wally.
I know I have lots of job to do to integrate this experience but I am hopeful.
Peace and love ❤️ "
"Ana is such a good human being, the discussions with her helped me clarify lots of stuff. Thank you!"
"Babaji (Sanson) is great with music! :)
The guitar, the lyrics, that handpan... Everything comes exactly when you need, guides you during your trip, and brings the experience on a whole other level."
"During the psychedelic weekend I had an intense experience, exactly what I was looking for.
And the guys were there right by our side, they let you have your process and then they help you integrate exactly when you need ;)
Their live music is amazing, it guides you during the trip, and anchors you with your intentions.
The ceremonies are perfectly timed apart, La Mezquita feels like a magical place, and the additional activities give you a better sense of what you experienced.
And to not forget about the beautiful Alicante! :)
Such a great experience, I highly recommend it, go with your heart open and the team and the plants will take care of you and your trip."
"There are things you do, so transformative than you realise that there was a before and an after! Sanson and his truly caring team got me to that point. Everything was well prepared and yet always in a casual atmosphere, to open my conscience and lead me in faith and confidence to this new experience. I'm very grateful ! Elisabeth from Belgium"
"Anastasiya is highly intelligent and one of the most empathic humans I have ever met. She really helped me over the weekend and I am so glad to have met her. Thank you 😃 "
"I got a lot out of my weekend at The Mezquita for the introduction to Psychedelics . The plant medicine really does allow you to access a different part of your brain and can show you what your real underlying issues are. Sansom has an incredible team who genuinely really care about their work. The mountain trip and picnic was superb what an amazing place. Beautiful music all weekend too and good food. "
"The people around Sanson have created an impressive utopia in the Mezquita: a place of harmony, of the senses, of encounters, of celebrations and of silence, where everyone is treated with interest and respect regardless of their origins and past. The interaction is cheerful, tolerant and awakens everyone's creativity. The Mezquita is a blessed place for me. It magically leads me back to the essentials in life."

"What a wonderful first time experience. Wouter and Aleece were amazing, putting me at ease, great communication and very professional. I will be returning and have already recommended this to many friends given what a great experience this was. If you are unsure of apprehensive then this is definitely the place to start.

"Better than I could have ever hoped for. Every single person in the group that stayed for the duration of the retreat had a profound experience that deeply changed and helped them! I loved my time at Mezquita! I felt safe in all of the ceremonies, the community feeling that was forged was amazing and so helpful in the healing process, the food was fantastic and the facilities were very nice! La Mezquita is amazing and I would recommend it to anyone who is seeking to find themselves or heal past trauma and finally become the person they’ve always wanted to be. "
"My experience at mezquita was a wonderful fulfilling experience full of wonder, love and hope. I went deep.into my subconscious and unlocked some deep trauma.
Many thanks to the whole team."
"I came to La Mezquita for the 1-Day Psilocybin Retreat with an open mind but no specific expectations. From the moment I arrived, Klara, Jolie, and Babaji made me feel completely at ease. Their presence was calming and supportive, which allowed me to fully immerse myself in the experience.
The retreat began with a beautiful ceremony led by Babaji, whose wisdom created a sacred space for deep exploration. As the psilocybin took effect, I felt myself entering a world that was both familiar and completely new. Jolie’s nurturing energy were instrumental in helping me navigate the different layers of my consciousness.
At one point, I encountered a part of myself that I had been avoiding for years—a shadow that I didn’t know how to face. With Klara’s encouragement and Babaji’s profound insights, I was able to embrace this part of myself, transforming it into a source of strength rather than fear.
By the end of the day, I felt a sense of peace and clarity that I had never experienced before. The 1-Day Psilocybin Retreat at La Mezquita was not just a journey of self-discovery; it was a homecoming to my true self. I am deeply grateful to Jake, Klara, Jolie, and Babaji for guiding me through this life-changing experience."
"The experience was unique and difficult to put into words. At times it was great, and at other times it was challenging. But through it all, I learned so much about myself, my internal dialogue, feelings, and patterns. I’m incredibly grateful that I took this journey, and I couldn’t have asked for better facilitators than Jake, Jolie, and Sanson."
