Join up to 16 journeyers for what alumni call the "most transformative experience" of their lives. Feel greater peace, love, joy, and harmony; learn how to flow with life's challenges; and manifest durable transformation in this 6 week journey, including:

• 7 day in-person retreat,

• 3 ayahuasca ceremonies,

• 2 weeks of virtual preparation,

• 5 weeks of virtual integration,

• Inner Circle peer support groups,

• ongoing community access, and

• tax-deductible donation to Ceremonia church.

Heal is the first of Ceremonia’s 3-stage Arc of Durable Transformation: Awaken, Heal, and Manifest. Our intention is to guide members to unimaginable levels of peace, joy, and spiritual connection while avoiding undue suffering.

Heal's 7 day weekend all-inclusive retreat includes experiential workshops at the intersection of psychology and spirituality, science and shamanism. Our objective is to facilitate safety and skill with surfacing, allowing, and being with what may arise in the psychedelic experience. The 7 day program is informed by the latest technologies of psychotherapy and ancient wisdom of sacred shamanism. These tools then become integral parts of how we can relate with our feelings and triggers back in the real world to be our Highest Self instead of avoiding or suppressing. 

We gather in Ceremonia's sacred space in beautiful Denver, Colorado with a carefully curated group of amazing and loving souls. Heal is suitable for alumni of Level 1: Awaken or those with significant ceremony or psychedelic therapy experience. Our experienced facilitators and team of therapists have guided more than 300 founders, leaders, and creators through their transformational journeys with plant sacraments.

As a non-profit 501(a)(8) entheogenic church, your donation is tax-deductible. Visit our website for more information about Ceremonia and what sets us apart.

The sacred entheogens that we serve are integral components of the Ceremonia religion. As such, our sacred practices and use of these sacraments are protected by the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), which has been upheld in the Supreme Court in concern with other plant sacrament churches. Additionally, Colorado recently decriminalized psilocybin mushrooms and DMT (the psychotropic compound in Ayahuasca) on November 9, 2022 in Proposition 122.

Heal is suitable for alumni of Level 1: Awaken or those with significant ceremony or psychedelic therapy experience. Within the retreat, our experienced facilitators serve the sacred entheogenic sacrament of ayahuasca in three ceremonies in accordance with the Ceremonia sacred practices. These are provided in escalating doses as an introductory on-ramp to the psychedelic experience.
