About this trip
You’ve been on a healing journey and you’re asking yourself:
- How can I identify and break through what’s holding me back?
- Is there happiness and peace beyond anxiety & depression?
- What’s my purpose in life?
- Can plant medicine help me access my healing on a deeper level?
Are you looking for a safe, small group setting (8-12 Max) to experience a healing retreat of personal growth with sacred medicines?
This retreat also has a special offering of a ceremonial tattoo. This is an optional (add on) experience that this retreat. (see below & Hanna's bio for more info.)
Using sacred plant medicines (Psilocybin, Mapacho, Cacao, Sananga and Rapé), you'll experience a safe, legal (all medicines are decriminalized in Portugal), healing retreat guided by an experienced facilitator, former Paramedic and initiated Curandera (healer). We only use medicines that are grown/infused with intention for ceremony.
This offering includes a 1-hr pre-session video call in order to help you deepen into the work and better prepare for the transformational experience. Tuesday, we'll begin the work, in the early afternoon, so that everyone has time to arrive and settle in. Opening circle will be at 15:30. The next days will be balanced between nourishing the Spirit, soul, and body. You'll connect with your Spirit through sacred ceremony, reflection time and integration; with your soul through workshops, relaxation time and integration; with your body through movement, plant based foods, and meditation, all while connecting with nature in this serene, luxurious retreat center nestled in the heart of the Algarve. This 7-day retreat will have two psilocybin ceremonies (a Museum dose and a Moderate journey dose). When we finish the retreat on Wednesday afternoon 13h, you'll have insights and tools to take with you to continue your healing journey. I also offer a 1:1 post-retreat integration session (included) so that you're able to touch base in the weeks to come. You are not alone in this journey & I'm honored to be a part of your transformation.
This retreat has a SPECIAL OFFERING: an opportunity to receive a handpoke tattoo ceremony from a locally well known artist. This is an optional add-on that will be offered at the retreat. You'll be able to book the appointment to receive said tattoo during the retreat down time. (Prices vary based on size of the tattoo and time needed for tattooing. Availability is limited, in accordance to # of people wanting to participate, size and details of tattoo.)
