About this retreat

Our 3-Day Psilocybin Retreat is a carefully structured small-group experience for those looking to step away from everyday life, reconnect with themselves and explore what may be holding them back. Set in the peaceful Dutch countryside, the retreat combines guided psilocybin experiences with breathwork, nature, reflection and integration across three carefully structured days. The first day focuses on arriving, slowing down and connecting with the group. The programme includes a microdose experience and guided breathwork, creating space to settle into the retreat and begin exploring your intentions. On the second day, we move more deeply into the experience through nature immersion and Conscious Connected Breathwork, followed by a guided full-dose psilocybin truffle ceremony. Our experienced facilitation team remains present throughout the ceremony, providing personal support within the small-group setting. The final day focuses on integration. Cacao, breathwork and inner child work create space to reflect on what emerged and consider how insights from the retreat can be carried into everyday life. An optional ice bath offers a final embodied experience before the retreat closes. Our groups are intentionally small, typically around eight participants, allowing us to create a personal atmosphere with approximately one facilitator for every four participants. Accommodation and meals are included, with private and shared room options available. Preparation begins before you arrive through our intake process and Participant Guide, and continues afterwards with our Integration Guide and a strong emphasis on bringing insights into everyday life. Elevated Mind Retreats uses legal psilocybin-containing truffles in the Netherlands. Participation is subject to our intake and screening process.

Why this retreat

Small groups are at the heart of our approach. With typically around eight participants and approximately one facilitator for every four participants, there is space for personal attention while still benefiting from the connection of a shared group experience. Rather than focusing only on the psilocybin ceremony, the retreat is structured as a complete three-day journey. Microdosing, breathwork, nature immersion, the full-dose ceremony and integration practices each have a purpose in helping you prepare, explore and integrate. Preparation begins before you arrive, and integration continues beyond the retreat. Together with our experienced facilitation team and intentionally small groups, this structured approach creates the personal attention and continuity that define the Elevated Mind Retreats experience.
