We use sacred psilocybin mushrooms to heal past traumas, unveil creativity and inspire gratitude. Live medicine music, sound bowl vibrations, calming meditations, and a judgement-free community surround our work. Take a safe, secure adventure into the most mystical area of the universe: your inner self.
A typical macro dose is 3.5 grams of dried psilocybin mushrooms. When you arrive you have a consultation with our providers to determine the best dose for your treatment. There are 3 main factors our providers will consider when it comes to determine dosing. 1. Body weight2. Tolerance3. Significance of experience there to heal. How is the macro dose administered?The macro dose before the treatment is ground up, weighed on a digital scale and mixed with orange juice for fast and even uptake.Is there a booster dose?During a treatment experience after the recommended dose has been administered, if the participant wants to extend the experience or increase the intensity the providers can offer another 1.5 grams as a booster dose.
Throughout human history, psychedelics have had tremendous ceremonial and medicinal importance. Recent clinical studies only support what our predecessors already understood about psilocybin mushrooms: they have the power to help people heal.The brain is a complex organ and it is generally left unsaid that changing the way your mind compartmentalizes trauma and assorted intrusive thoughts can be easier said than done. Conventional therapies may not always produce the results you hoped for, and medications can create side effects worse than the problems they intend to solve. Lifestyle changes can also be met with resistance and often seem to only take you so far.

Mission Statement: At our organization, our aim is to introduce sacred psychedelics and ceremony into the wellness space. Additionally, we promote and provide a platform for many women healers working in this area by emphasizing Mexican spiritual traditions as well as modern applications of these plant medicines. We are well known for our lighthearted yet compassionate approach to serious, deep healing. In an atmosphere of support, we believe we can release deep traumas and bring joy back into life. Our retreats provide classes in mindfulness meditation and, when appropriate, utilize sacred teacher plants such as Ayahuasca, psilocybin mushrooms, San Pedro cactus and cannabis as sacred teacher plants. Each retreat group consists of three guests for every leader ensuring an intimate experience that combines the sacred with the modern; traditional ways with fresh insights; divine with everyday living.
At Psilocybin Retreat Sanctum Method, our goal is to assist you in transitioning from feeling disconnected, anxious, and self-loathing into feeling empowered, present, and completely in love with yourself. You have all of the tools within yourself to change your life permanently; sometimes just a bit of love and support can go a long way towards real change.
Details of the Program
Psychedelic Integration is the process of exploring challenges and sharing insights gained during your ceremony. Any feelings, sensations or insights brought up during your retreat can be important in aiding healing; true healing takes place when we accept all our ideas and emotions fully while feeling safe to do so. Professional assistance during this phase can increase chances for long-lasting change; by taking part in integration we create new stories and patterns within ourselves that go well beyond just one ceremony itself.
As with any psychedelic drug, individual experiences will vary when psilocybin is administered. The higher the dose, the higher the chance of the experience feeling mystical. Should you have such an experience, these experiences tend to be filled with euphoria, transcending into a timeless, dream-like state, connecting to something greater, and more. Improved psychological outcomes are also related to the occurence of a mystical experience.

“The entire cultural conversation around psychedelics has changed,” said Roland Griffiths, a professor at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and founding director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Psychedelic and Consciousness Research. “And that’s a concern to me, because I think we’re underestimating the risks involved,” he said. “The retreat center question is, buyer beware.”
Prehistoric rock murals found in France, Spain and Algeria suggest that the ceremonial use of psilocybin predates recorded history. This tradition lives on today in Indigenous communities around the world: the Huichol, Mazatecs, Shipibo, Yanomami, and Bwiti to name just a few. Our team of guides honor a variety of traditions and lineages passed down to them from their own teachers.
Jorge and her staff go to great lengths to create a very safe space, a space where I felt comfortable to be myself. I’m a fairly private person, and prior to attending I was a bit anxious and skeptical about the group aspect of the experience. but I felt so safe that I was able to access parts of myself that needed attending to. Jorge and her staff are supremely talented in creating the safest place possible, a space where I was able to explore aspects of myself that I often deny, or wish to ignore.

“I was shown why I’m not happy, and it became clear I was carrying around the pain of my ancestors,” said Ms. Cohen, a deep-tissue manual therapist who has struggled with depression for 20 years. After that night, she said she found clarity, and has since sought out two other psychedelic retreats, traveling to Costa Rica and California for guided, extended experiences with hallucinogens.
I am five days past an incredible 7 day journey at Psilocybin Retreat Sanctum. I came with a heart and mind full of depression, confusion and skepticism. During my stay I experienced healing given to me through yoga, meditation, breathing techniques, psilocybin and the loving care of Jorge and her team. I left with hopefulness, contentment, love and a new view of this world and my life in it.
Retreat prices include: accommodations, meals, transportation, massage, session facilitation and integrations services. For these services you will be billed electronically by Paypal. These prices DO NOT include the cost of mushroom medicine for your retreat. Psilocybin is legal in Mexico when done in a ceremonial and sacramental context. Due to current regulations outside of Mexico, Psilocybin Retreat Sanctum does not include the cost of the mushrooms in the retreat package price. Guests will be served medicine at the discretion of the medicine man/woman at the retreat under their guidance and our collective decision. Guests will be asked to pay a service fee to the shaman, whatever they decide is fair, for the medicine and their time. Shamans will always give medicine for free if someone cannot pay. In this challenging landscape we are committed to providing our guests with the safest, most legal option in psilocybin-assisted retreats.
believed that a MycoMeditations retreat is a suitable alternative to conventional mental health treatments
Is the most intrepid, life-changing trip the one we take inside our own heads? The mushroom boom has moved well beyond trippy giggling in festival fields: the aim now is the ultimate psycho-plunge, a chance to reset the brain in increasingly cosseting surroundings. Class A drugs on a retreat sounds paradoxical, but this is a natural progression. Retreats such as Path of Love and the Hoffman Process have been facilitating drug-free plummets into the psyche for decades. These are processes that can produce rapid and profound change, akin to a year’s therapy shoehorned into one intense week. Yet many participants still hit a wall, an internal barrier that prevents deeper healing. The subconscious builds up Pentagon-grade defences with inner Swat teams on alert to keep our pain held smack down on the floor. All the deep bodywork, cathartic yelling, family constellations and ritual release in the world can’t always break through. Yet, it has been found that mushrooms can.
Jorge's approach to therapy is characterized by empathy, compassion, and a genuine desire to make a positive impact on their patients' lives. She employs evidence-based techniques and tailored treatment plans to meet the unique needs and goals of each individual. Jorge firmly believes in fostering a safe and trusting therapeutic environment, where clients feel comfortable sharing their concerns and working towards growth and healing.
The Psilocybin Retreat Sanctum Team consists of experienced professionals; trained in the best practices used in research trials, they have prepared and guided hundreds of participants safely through the full variety of psychedelic experiences.
"For over 30 years I have tried every available treatment to alleviate anxiety and depression. These past treatments were only bandaids as the inherent problems never really went away. Psilocybin got to the root cause. But what makes MycoMeditations work is the extraordinary group of support staff and the gorgeous natural environment."
our team of professionals perform comprehensive health screenings for all applicants in order to identify any personal health risks, ensuring the safety of all of our participants.

Psilocybin, the psychedelic compound produced by more than 200 species of mushrooms around the world, temporarily stands down the critical, judgmental, highly defended parts of the ego brain. Under this armistice, old memories surface and the mind expands beyond the confines of the body and into a wider, let’s say it, cosmic consciousness. The brain can liberate itself from the stranglehold of negativ- ity and new neural pathways are formed, a process known as neuroplasticity.
Andrew joined thePsilocybin Retreat Sanctum Team January 2022 after a Psilocybin treatment with Jorge and Team. After suffering from anxiety for 6 years the treatment was a turning point. He had created success in business as a marketing consultant and also worked helping other entrepreneurs with mental health struggles. Andrew instantly felt connected with the tribe and the love they shared with all their clients. quickly became family and Andrew began helping with treatments as a provider. Pretty quickly it became apparent that there was synergy with the team. Andrew wanted to offer the same transformation he found through his treatment and offered to help expand the vision and reach 1000’s more wonderful people here atPsilocybin Retreat Sanctum and came on board!

Flowers, trees, birds, bees, animals are everywhere. Landscapes and sunsets of special magnificence appear. You breathe in the silence. Here you can just BE. You can hear the mountain speak to you in various ways… if only you are willing to listen.
Since 2018, many of our guests have contributed to the Ceremony Study conducted by the Centre for Psychedelic Research at Imperial College London. The study set out to measure how long participants reported positive impact from their psilocybin experience and broke new ground by including non-clinical providers in their research.
6 out of 5 stars. I originally wanted mainly to drag my husband with a number of issues and simply understand myself better coming into retirement after a very successful public career. The experience was transformational. For the first time I understood my life, my behavior and decisions and what I could let go of. I am facing the death of several loved ones with peace now. Not at all what I thought I was coming for. I sleep and function better. Although he might never admit it, my husband’s depression appears gone. The integration and processing of the experience incorporated into the retreat and after is critical to sustaining the transformational changes. There was an incredible amount of planning and thought into the retreat. Jorge is truly a shaman and the facilitators were deeply involved in the experience. I learned about this retreat from a family member and will be bringing other family members in future.
Far away from your day-to-day in a beautiful place with wonderful people, the retreat is a powerful time for growth. We do two psilocybin ceremonies, breathwork, meditation and other transformational practices for an optimal experience.

“Psilo” is a shorthand for “psilocybin”, a compound found in psychedelic mushrooms, also known as “magic mushrooms”. At Eleusinia Retreat, guests can participate in a psilocybin or “psilo” retreat ceremony where they consume psilocybin-containing mushrooms as part of their experience. This all-inclusive wellness retreat is designed to offer a safe and supportive environment for individuals to learn, understand and explore the potential benefits and limitations of psilocybin use with the guidance of experienced professionals.
To understand how the Sanctum is different, it is important to note that our program is different. We Prioritize the science and neurological benefits behind psychedelics, Psilocybin Retreat Sanctum distinguishes itself from other retreats which exclusively focus on potential spiritual or religious enlightenment. While the Sanctum recognizes the spiritual and religious enlightenment experienced by its clients, the Sanctum’s program also focuses on neuroplasticity, brain health, pain management, and personal growth. Along with teaching techniques and approaches for managing a psychedelic trip itself, the program also empowers guests to incorporate psychedelics into their wellness routine with independence and self-sufficiency. The community atmosphere promotes learning, growth, shared discussion, and general reflection while encouraging spiritual experiences. The program’s support extends well beyond the retreat itself, providing guests with a dedicated private network for communication, questions and discussion beyond the days of the retreat itself, along with updated articles, online classes, research links, and cultivation course videos. The Sanctums’s mission is to equip guests with the confidence, independence, and tools needed to manage their condition and goals independently, while continuing to receive support from doctors and family back home.
Psilocybin is the active ingredient in more than 200 species of magic mushrooms and truffles. Psilocybin-containing fungi grow in environments such as tropical and subtropical humid forests. They are also cultivated indoors by professional and amateur mycologists.
Although psilocybin and the fungi that contain it are still illegal in many parts of the world, the stigma surrounding their use is fading quickly due to the recent surge of positive research studies, anecdotal accounts, and companies championing the use of psychedelics.
Human beings have used psilocybin throughout history for spiritual and personal growth purposes. Ancient rock art in Algeria and Spain depicting mushroom use is estimated to be thousands of years old.
According to the “Stoned Ape Theory” originated by Terence McKenna, an American ethnobotanist and psychedelics advocate, the discovery of magic mushrooms about 200,000 years ago was responsible for birthing language, strengthening community, and the doubling in size of the human brain.
Psilocybin is widely regarded as a safe substance. In a 2010 study that ranked the safety of various drugs based on measurements of how a drug harms the individual and others, psilocybin was shown to be the safest out of 20 substances. It was a full 12x safer than alcohol and more than 4x safer than tobacco. Simple factors such as having a guide present and being in a quiet indoor or secluded outdoor area can ensure safety.
Many suffering from depression and anxiety have benefitted from using psilocybin in a safe setting with proper mental and emotional support. Those who commit to sitting with and developing curiosity about difficult emotions may enjoy tremendous growth and healing with the help of psilocybin. We have worked with countless journeyers whose mental health has improved after incorporating mushrooms into their lives.
Committing to a regular microdosing schedule for a few weeks or months can be a safe and effective start toward establishing long-lasting change. For some, positive results can manifest almost overnight. In contrast, for others, several days, weeks, or months are necessary for the benefits to become apparent. Developing one’s capacity to practice faith, fortitude, and patience amid difficulties is essential to the work.
We recommend taking a holistic approach when working through depression and anxiety, seeking to understand and work with these conditions rather than attempting to rid yourself of them. Along with taking mushrooms, developing a solid support network, establishing healthy routines, and practicing gratitude and generosity is vital.
We use mass spectrometry to test our items. We are happy to share lab reports and strain information upon request.
We prides itself on being a welcoming space for all, and not just those with certain medical conditions. While the program may have been originally designed to cater to individuals with chronic pain conditions, we believe this fact only adds to the level of care and attention we offer to our guests. Catering to individuals with medical conditions means that our Retreat places a premium on providing a safe, secure, and accessible environment to explore the benefits of psilocybin. Whether you’re looking to address a specific medical condition or simply seeking to enhance your overall wellness, Our Retreat offers a welcoming and supportive environment to help you achieve your goals.
At the Sanctum, we know the science behind the anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties of psilocybin and can coach our visitors on how to leverage them for better health as part of a long term plan.
