Transformative Ceremonies
Vision Walk
Nature can be a source of inspiration and insight. During this Vision Walk we will enjoy a slow, silent walk outside in nature with a dose of psilocybin truffles. The truffles help us open for the beauty and wisdom of nature. During the Vision Walk, nature is your 'oracle' and can help you receive deeper insight into themes that are relevant to you inner world or daily life. The truffles help us to experience deeper connection with ourself and the world around us, gain understanding and open our path.

Psilohuasca Wellness Retreats
Psilohuasca is a combination of Banisteriopsis Caapi and psilocybin truffles. In these 3-day retreats, we offer two ceremonies: one truffle ceremony and one psilohuasca ceremony. On the third day, there will be integrative breathwork. The weekend is suppemented with wellness (sauna & hottub) for deep relaxation and wonderful organic food.
Together with the team of The Sanctuary we provide a safe and loving setting to connect with these ancient medicines. The Caapi that we serve is prepared from wild, fresh vine in Brazil and made with prayer and care. The Caapi vine and psilocybin work beautifully together and are a powerful entheogenic medicine. Both Caapi and truffles are legal in The Netherlands.

about mini-dosing
Mini-dosing is a very safe way to support our body and mind to release old patterns, reconnect with ourself on a deeper level and create new, healthier habits. Psilocybin (the active molecule in magic truffles) has been used for spiritual growth in native traditions for thousands of years. When we take a mini-dose, the intention is not to ‘trip’, as the effect of the mini-dose is only a little noticeable by the conscious mind. Rather, the mini-dose helps us to dive just a little deeper into ourself and supports the integration of our inner wisdom into our daily lives.
Check out this blog about the difference between en mini-dose and a microdose.
about cacao
Cacao has also been used for thousands of years by native peoples as a sacred medicine and has been called “the food of the Gods”. It opens our veins and works as a tonic for our heart, while uplifting our mood. Cacao is a very subtle yet powerful medicine plant and works beautifully together with the psilocybin, enhancing its mind-opening effect.
