🍄🌳FOREST TRUFFLE / TRUFFEL CEREMONY (MAX 3 PEOPLE) (ENG/NL)🌳🍄

Over dit evenement

Hi potential explorer of the inner world,

Do you wish to explore an issue in your life that you encounter often? Or have you always wanted to explore the ethereal or your connection with nature a bit more? Feel welcome to come explore it with us!

I facilitate truffle ceremonies (optionally with cacao and rapeh) with a lot of personal attention in the forest (spring/summer) or surrounded by nature (late autumn/winter) for max 3 people. Because of the small group there is a lot of personal attention and space to meet your needs. If there is only Dutch people attending, the ceremony will be in Dutch. Otherwise, it will be in English. If you want a ceremony specifically in Dutch, contact me. Also included is a integration meeting a month later where you can share your integration process and address anything that you might have a hard time working through.

🌿WHY A TRUFFLECEREMONY?🌿
Taking truffles within a ceremonial setting can help you expand your inner world. The psychoactive compound found in psychedelic truffles helps you to review phenomena inside and outside yourself through a different lens and this will also impact your life after the trip. Truffles have a scientifically proven effect on various psychological problems, like depression, fears, addiction and obsessive compulsive syndrome. They can also help relieve physical pain. If you are looking at a more mystical/spiritual experience, they could, for example, potentially facilitate an experience of oneness with all there is, or you might experience an ego death. Using truffles in nature also adds a different dimension, since it can provide you with a profound experience of nature, which has the potential to stay with you long after the ceremony. Every truffle journey is different per person, per moment and is influenced by your intention. Therefore, everyone will get something different out of every journey. In my experience, it is always a valuable one once you've managed to integrate it.

🌿THE CEREMONY🌿
My role will be to serve as a guide during the ceremony. During plant medicine ceremonies, traditionally, this role is fulfilled by medicine men and women. These healers take great care to create a safe and supportive space for inner exploration and healing along your journey. The method I use is inspired by this animist way of facilitating ceremony, as well as my own experience as a spiritual practitioner.
Under my guidance, you will prepare yourself for the journey before taking the truffles. This will all take place in a pleasant environment in or close to nature. I will also help you with grounding and connecting with your body and with the other participants through various meditations. Furthermore, I will guide you when setting your intention for the journey. This will all help create a basis that will support you to go even deeper during your truffle journey. Along with my spaceholder, I will support you during the journey whenever necessary.

There is also the possibility to take cacao before you start your journey. Taking cacao can help you to connect even deeper with yourself during the journey.

🌿WHO AM I🌿
I enjoy exploring the complexity of the multifaceted nature of our existence and I feel a deep connection with nature. From an early age, I have been interested in self-development and over the last 10 years, spiritual practice has become a major part in this. Born from this passion, I have been facilitating ceremonies for over 9 years, combining various spiritual disciplines, such as various meditation techniques, reiki, bodywork, voice liberation, animist (shamanistic) rituals and tantric work. I have been facilitating truffle ceremonies for over four years. I also worked with people as a coach and within the healthcare sector. These experiences helped me see the complexity of human life and taught me how I can support people in various ways throughout their development processes.

🌿THIS CEREMONY'S SPACEHOLDER: LUUK🌿
Luuk will join me for this ceremony as additional support. Luuk is a haptotherapist in training, offering a somatic and interpersonal touch to the ceremony when needed. He has also been spiritually practicing for 4 years now, where his main focus is on embodiment and energy healing commodities.

🌿IMPORTANT: PROCEDURE🌿
After registration, I will contact you to schedule an intake over the phone. You can also ask me any further questions you might have during the intake. Should you come to the conclusion that the ceremony does not seem right for you, you will be refunded the full amount. A month after the ceremony, there will be an integration meeting where you can share your integration process and address anything that you might have a hard time working through. This will either be done in Nijmegen as an evening forest walk or online in the evening, depending on what is more convenient for those participating. We will determine the date for the integration meeting together.

DISCLAIMER: I will of course do my very best to create a safe space for you and support you in the best way I can during this ceremony. However, participation is at your own risk. Some journeys can be tough and might need a longer time to integrate properly. During the intake over the phone, we will discuss what you can do to take proper care of yourself after the journey and to support your integration process.

It would be great to meet you at the ceremony!
