Transformational Psychedelic Retreat: New Year’s Ceremony


Transformational Psychedelic Retreat: New Year’s Ceremony

As one year closes and another begins, we invite you to step into a sacred space of reflection, release, and renewal.
Our 24-hour New Year’s Psychedelic Retreat offers the opportunity to let go of what no longer serves and welcome the new cycle with clarity, vision, and gratitude.

Set during the first New Moon of the year, this experience invites you to turn inward, connect with your heart’s truth, and plant meaningful intentions for the months ahead.
Together, we’ll gather in a safe, supportive space to explore the transformative power of plant medicine — for reflection, healing, and conscious creation of the year to come.

Guided by experienced facilitators in a serene, candlelit or nature-filled environment, we will slow down, reconnect with ourselves, and celebrate new beginnings through breath, sound, and ceremony.

The retreats take place in one of our beautiful nature retreat locations, approximately 45 minutes from Amsterdam.
