In the heart of a lush and vibrant jungle, we will gather as a group of women embarking on a transformative retreat designed to explore the depths of our souls through the ancient wisdom of plant medicine. Guided by a skilled local plant medicine curandera, a Medicine Woman deeply connected to the spirit of the jungle, and under the careful supervision of two of the United States' leading certified psychedelic assisted psychotherapists, this unique journey promises a safe, soulful, and authentic experience.

The retreat is meticulously crafted by women, for women, fostering a sacred space for self-discovery, healing, and empowerment. Nestled within the jungle's embrace, the retreat space blends seamlessly with the natural surroundings, providing a serene haven for the participants to embark on their psychedelic journey.

As we gather in a ceremonial space adorned with vibrant flowers and softly lit by sunlight filtering through the palms, the Medicine Woman will share her ancestral knowledge and set the intention for our psilocybin journey. With a profound respect for the plants and a deep understanding of their healing properties, she weaves a tapestry of connection between the participants, the jungle, and the spirit of the medicine.

Under the watchful guidance of the certified psychedelic assisted psychotherapists, you will drink your magic tea in a supportive and ceremonial setting. The therapists, trained in the nuances of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, provided a safe container for the journey, offering gentle guidance when needed and holding space for the women to navigate the realms of their innate inner wisdom.

As the sun dips below the horizon, we will reconvene for a closing ceremony, expressing gratitude for the transformative experience they had shared. The jungle, alive with the echoes of the journeys, stands witness to the profound healing and empowerment that has taken place.

This retreat, born from a vision of creating a safe and sacred space for women to explore the depths of their souls, offers a truly unique and authentic journey—an intimate dance between ancient plant wisdom, therapeutic expertise, and the nurturing embrace of the jungle.
