Soul and Saddle - Horses and Psilocybin Retreat
La Fortuna, Costa Rica
6-Day Psilocybin & Equine Healing Retreat
Every journey with Psilocybin is an informational journey,
an opportunity to experience yourself inside the medicine — heart open, newly informed — with a quiet, silent contributor: the horse, who shows you a different way of looking at things.
A powerful mirror.
Two magical methods combine.
It doesn’t become more intense — it becomes more true.
After supporting over 3,400 beautiful souls through Psilocybin journeys, and spending 18 years as a mortician sitting with death, grief, and love, I’ve learned to hold what most people avoid.
And the horses seem to know it too.
As the medicine brings what you need,
the horses become your companion to surrender to truth.
Hypersensitive to environmental clues, horses read intention from up to a quarter mile.
Imagine them close by.
Their legendary intuition mirrors our emotions, our feelings, and our thoughts. They can detect sadness, happiness, anger, pride, pain, and suffering — with so much presence and tolerance that an innate kind of healing can emerge in us.
There’s a reason people cry when a horse leans in.
It’s not drama.
It’s not magic.
It’s what happens when something finally sees you, without asking for anything in return.
No fixing.
Just presence.
Horses respond to the unseen — not what we say, but what we carry. They feel our incongruence.
They know when our words don’t match our energy.
And they don’t judge it: they simply reflect it.
It’s about learning to be in our body again.
It’s about allowing emotions to rise, move, and soften, without needing a reason.
The medicine gently lowers the walls.
The horses keep you anchored in reality.
Their legs and heart move you forward, if you let them.
The upcoming Soul and Saddle Retreat, May 30 – June 5, 2025, in La Fortuna, Costa Rica,
is for those who are ready to slow down, to look inward, to embrace their purpose, to let it lead again.
There will be the land, lush and still, holding you beneath the majestic Arenal Volcano.
There will be ceremonial medicine to open your heart.
There will be horses who ask nothing of you and show you everything you are becoming.
And then, your rhythm of healing: slow, honest, in your own time.
If you're feeling the pull, it's not by accident.
It’s hard to describe the value of that.
Your life will be changed.
