This four-day Heart of the Matter spring retreat invites you to return to the core of who you are and what truly matters to you. From this essence, you open yourself to new possibilities and personal growth. These days are devoted to transformation, creation, and the development of plans that arise not from obligation, but from inner clarity and direction.
This four-day psychedelic retreat is a gift to yourself, offering comfort and relaxation so you can fully surrender to the two psilocybin journeys on Friday and Saturday.
The first journey involves a medium dose of psilocybin, allowing you to gently explore and sense the themes that are present for you. This experience helps prepare you for the second psilocybin journey the following day, which takes place with a higher dose. Both journeys are facilitated in the yurt, accompanied by beautiful music, sound healing, and carefully chosen scents.
Experience has shown us that two journeys on consecutive days create the most profound and balanced mental and emotional exploration.
Prior to the retreat, there will be an individual online intake session as well as an online group introduction. After the retreat, an online integration session will take place.
The program starts on Thursday, May 21, in the afternoon (arrival between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM) and ends on Sunday, May 24, around 1:00 PM.
Throughout the retreat, you will stay in your own room (with a shared bathroom), enjoy wholesome vegetarian meals, have access to the sauna, and find space to relax in the surrounding natural environment.
Our accommodations (cabins) are located in the heart of nature. If you prefer less nature and more comfort, you can book a room in the main building for an additional €150.
Everything during this retreat is designed to help you slow down, gain new insights, and support your personal growth.

In the Netherlands, it is legal to purchase and consume psilocybin in the form of ‘magic truffles’. Truffles are a different part of the mushroom, known as sclerotia, which remain dormant and help the mushroom regrow after damage. Magic mushrooms, in contrast, are illegal.
Psilocybin is completely safe when used responsibly in a safe environment with people you know and trust. It is a naturally occurring substance that is converted by the body into psilocin, which acts on the serotonin receptors in the brain. Psilocybin is not addictive and there are no known reports of overdoses.
Psilocybin is not an addictive substance. You may enjoy and get a lot out of the experience, but you’re not likely to become physically dependent on psilocybin.
The age limit of 25 years is installed because the brain is still growing and developing up to that age. Important contra-indications as some disorders are found almost always before the age of 25 (but not always before 20). We must take this contra-indication very seriously because of the immense consequences when things go wrong. And as a young adolescent you rather not come in contact with a very high dose of psilocybin, like participants use in our Retreats.
If you are taking medication, consult your doctor before taking any further steps. Before you sign up for a retreat, please let us know what type of medication you are taking. We can also consult our medical expert to help you gain clarity.
Rest is one of our most important basic needs. We do everything we can to create a soothing experience that makes you happy, fulfilled and energized. Calm your mind in our beautiful place and find the clarity and silence to find your true self.
With guidance, you’ll take a psychedelic journey.
On our estate, you can fully enjoy nature.
The yurt is a safe place to take the journey inward.
We are convinced that everyone has the power to reach their highest potential. Driven by a deep respect for the nature around us, we help people become the best version of themselves by continuing to discover themselves. Turn potential into matter.
