The Medicine Journey - Psilocybin Group Retreat in Big Bear, California

The Medicine Journey - Psilocybin Group Retreat

In this retreat, we will explore an alternative approach to mental health and planetary wellbeing.

Part mystery and part wisdom, mushrooms produce molecules that fit receptors in the human brain and body. When we ingest this magical medicine of nature with an intent to heal—and we listen deeply and learn to interpret the messages accurately—we learn from them.

The Medicine:

Psilocybin has a gentle and kind way of highlighting for us the very thing that needs our attention. While it is magic in many ways, it isn't a quick fix. It is a supportive method to ease the severity and intensity of what we are experiencing and helps us move through life and its challenges with a little more ease. It is imperative to your journey to receive guidance and to learn the tools to enhance and increase the benefits that the medicine offers on its own. Additionally, the medicine opens up new portals of creativity, passion, and empathy that have the power to enhance anyone's life.

Improved connections between brain regions
