1 day retreat (truffles) - The Journey Home

Over dit evenement

Dear you,
You are warmly invited to a small-group, one-day retreat supported by magic truffles in a carefully held, nervous system-informed setting.
This intimate experience is limited to two participants, allowing for individual attention, a sense of safety, and space for each person's unique process to unfold.

Magic truffles can temporarily shift habitual patterns of perception, thought, and self-reflection. For some people, this can create opportunities to access emotions, insights, and perspectives that may be less available in everyday awareness. The intention of this retreat is not to "fix" or force change, not diagnosis or treatment, but to support a deeper relationship with yourself through curiosity, presence and compassionate self-exploration.

📍 Details:
Date: June 20
Group size: 2 participants maximum
Location: Amsterdam New West (indoors)
Time: 10:00–20:00 (approximate; timing may vary depending on the group's process)
Investment: €455 per person
Registration closes 3 days before the ceremony.

Preparation
Preparation is an important part of the experience.
Before the retreat, we will schedule a preparation call to discuss your intentions, answer questions, review safety considerations, and explore what support may help you feel resourced and prepared. You will also receive guidance and practices to support grounding, and prepare mentally and physically for the experience.

Integration
While psychedelic experiences can offer meaningful insights, lasting change is often shaped by what happens afterward.
You will receive an integration guide to help translate insights into daily life and meaningful action. A follow-up integration call will take place approximately two weeks after the retreat to support reflection and integration.

The Ceremony
The retreat is held in a non-judgmental, supportive environment designed to encourage a sense of safety, trust, and inward focus.
Music is carefully selected to support the emotional and reflective process. Participants will be invited to wear a blindfold during the journey, which can help reduce external stimulation and support attention toward inner experience.

About Magic Truffles
Research and participant reports suggest that, when used in a safe and supportive setting, truffles may facilitate personal insight, self-reflection, emotional exploration, and shifts in perspective. Individuals may experience changes in how they relate to their thoughts, emotions, or life circumstances. Experiences and outcomes vary considerably between individuals, and no specific results can be guaranteed.

A truffle experience can involve a wide range of emotions and mental states, including periods of discomfort, emotional intensity, uncertainty, or the emergence of challenging personal material. While these experiences can be meaningful for some individuals, they may also be difficult. For this reason, thorough preparation, appropriate support during the session, and post-session integration are considered important elements of the process.
