Transformative Psychedelic Retreat: Welcoming Autumn
September 24-25 | Grounding into a New Season Through Sacred Medicine
✨ Celebrate the Autumn Equinox with a transformative journey of balance, reflection, and attunement to the rhythms of nature ✨
This September, we invite you to a profound 24-hour psychedelic retreat designed to honor the arrival of autumn and the sacred balance of the equinox. Join us in a safe, supportive space to explore the transformative power of plant medicine for reflection, release, and renewal during this gentle seasonal transition.
Guided by experienced facilitators in a serene, nature-filled environment, we'll slow down together, attune to the rhythms of the season, and connect deeply with ourselves, each other, and the natural world as light and dark come into perfect balance.
The retreats take place in one of our beautiful nature retreat locations, approximately 45 minutes from Amsterdam.

Meet Your Experienced Guides (What others say)
Denise - Empathetic Guide & Sacred Space Holder
"Denise is an incredible leader/guide, and I feel so grateful to have experienced this retreat under her care. From the very beginning, she provided deep insight and thoughtful preparation, ensuring that we felt supported before, during, and after the ceremony. Her ability to hold space with empathy and nurturing energy made it so much easier for me to open up, something that doesn't come naturally to me. Her voice is absolutely beautiful, and during the main ceremony, it was a source of deep comfort and grounding. She has such a pure and radiant soul, and her presence made the retreat feel even more sacred and transformative."
Margot - Wise Leader & Music Curator
"My experience at the retreat was truly transformative, and Margot played a huge role in that. As a fellow entrepreneur, I really appreciated how she could deeply relate to the challenges and experiences of the attendees, which made her guidance feel even more personal and impactful. Margot is incredibly wise and created such a safe, nurturing space where I felt completely comfortable. From the start, I knew she was going to bring amazing music given her background working at Spotify, and she did not disappoint—the soundtrack she curated added such a powerful layer to the journey."
