Psychedelics & Plant Medicine
Psychedelic / visionary / consciousness medicines are often referred to as entheogens, meaning “generating the divine within”. Every entheogenic journey is different, every time, for everyone. While we still don’t fully understand how these substances work, cultures that have used them for thousands of years say they carry a sentience or intelligence about them that works with your higher Self to produce the exact kind of experience you need in your life at that very moment.
Every experience offers a unique lesson, and it’s often never what you expect. These medicines can create an opportunity to work through your challenges or questions to find a level of healing and understanding that is otherwise out of reach.
Our Services
We do not sell, prescribe or administer the medicines.
We can offer suggestions for how to access these sacred medicines from trusted and local sources. Sourcing and taking the medicine is your decision and responsibility.
We can not predict or control what your experience may be like.
Every Journey is entirely a personal one, based on your intentions and your soul’s path as well as your internal conditions, personal practices and preparation.
We do promise that we lovingly hold a safe and sacred space, we will provide practical assistance and energetic support before, through out and after your Journey. This can allow you to more easily let go, welcome whatever experience may come and integrate the teachings afterwards.
Preparation and Integration
Plant Medicine Journey Work is therapeutic but is not therapy.
We screen all participants to determine their readiness, their desires and preparation as well as integration capacity and support. We also clarify if a participant needs and expectations are aligned with what we can offer here and with what the medicine offers.
All participants must have at least one energy session before booking a Plant Medicine Session and at least one follow-up integration energy session. These sessions can be online or in person.
Depending on an individual's experience and circumstances we may require or recommend additional energy sessions or other supports. We are happy to connect with any referring therapists and health practitioners.

We offer intimate and catered 4 day Plant Medicine Retreats for groups of 3-7 people. These facilitated retreats incorporate two Psilocybin Sessions, group and individual energy work and movement practice, small group sharing and connection. and delicious, nourishing meals (cooked in house by our resident chef!). These Retreats start on Wednesday 11am and end Saturday around 1pm.
Over night accommodation is offsite, in a wonderful local B&B or a magical riverside house nearby. Participants from farther away are invited to book pre and post in-person energy sessions as well.
Private Sessions
We offer one day Plant Medicine Sessions for individuals as well as groups of 2-3 people. These sessions typically start at 9:30am and close around 3:30pm. We highly recommend participants stay near-by overnight, with many wonderful options.
We require all participants to have at least one introductory energy session - online or in-person. We also encourage participants coming from farther away to plan for and book preparatory and post energy sessions the day before and after the session.
