About this Retreat
Your Guides
Río is a psychedelic guide, teacher, and the founder of BrooklynPsychedelic.org. He’s guided hundreds of people through psilocybin and ayahuasca ceremonies across Mexico, Peru, and the U.S.
His path has led him from the Amazon rainforest, where he apprenticed with Shipibo elders, to the Himalayas, where he trained in yoga, meditation, and breathwork. He spent years in Oaxaca studying mushroom medicine—including the lineage of María Sabina—and has walked with the Wixárika people of Northern Mexico, guardians of the sacred Peyote cactus.
Río also brings a strong academic foundation to his work. After earning a degree in Social Entrepreneurship at UT Austin, he completed a Social Impact Incubator at Columbia University and was later accepted into the Social Work Master’s programs of both Columbia University and the NYU Silver School of Social Work.
Ultimately, however, Río brings presence. He meets each person with openness and respect—without judgment, and without agenda. His role is not to fix or heal, but to help create a safe, sacred space where your own inner healer can emerge.
Details of this retreat
PSILOCYBIN MUSHROOM CEREMONY, THERAPY, AND INTEGRATION FOR THOSE SEEKING TRANSFORMATION
This process is not just about psychedelics—it’s about you. The entire arc of preparation, ceremony, and integration is designed to awaken something lasting within you. Even without taking a psychedelic, this work lays a foundation for deep inner growth, emotional clarity, and spiritual transformation.
Psychedelics are not the path—you are the path. Your presence, your courage, your inner wisdom. The medicine simply helps you remember what’s already true.
When held with intention and reverence, a psychedelic ceremony can illuminate that truth, offering you tools, insights, and ways of being that you can carry for the rest of your life.
We’re honored to walk beside you in your journey.
*******
HOW THE PROCESS WORKS
Our ceremony process is crafted to support deep, intentional transformation. It begins with a short application and a free introductory call to connect, answer questions, and ensure alignment. Once a date is set, you’ll receive a 30-day preparation program that includes guided meditation, audio teachings, reading materials, and daily practices to help you cultivate presence, clarity, and emotional readiness.
Ceremony day begins late morning with grounding breathwork and meditation, followed by intention-setting and the creation of your personal altar. You’ll be guided through the journey with a personalized dose of psilocybin, an eye mask, and curated music—held in a safe and sacred space by a dedicated facilitator. There’s no rush; we honor the rhythm of the medicine and your unique unfolding.
After the ceremony, we’ll meet for integration sessions to help you process the experience, embody the insights, and carry them forward into daily life. This isn’t just a moment—it’s the beginning of a new way of being, grounded in truth, clarity, and connection.

Schedule
How the Process Works:
1) Apply - If you are interested in a 1-on-1 psychedelic ceremony, please submit an application form.
2) Schedule a Meeting - Once your application is submitted, our screening process begins. If your application is accepted, you will receive an email to schedule a 1-hour preparatory meeting with us.
3) 1-Hour Preparatory Meeting - Given proper preparation, mindset (set), and physical environment (setting), psychedelics can be experienced with minimal risk and life-changing results. Before your session, we require at least one 1-hour preparatory meeting to determine if we are the appropriate facilitators to guide your psychedelic mushroom journey. We will discuss intentions, expectations, potential outcomes, the process, and our code-of-ethics. It’s extremely important to us that we develop a bond of trust and a sense of safety between participant and facilitator in order to provide a beneficial psychedelic journey for you.
4) Set a Ceremony Date - It’s important that you give yourself enough time pre-session and post-session. Choose a date where you will have no obligations the day of or the day after your session. The actual trip will last roughly 6 hours, and this way you can ease back into the physical realm in a relaxed and un-rushed manner.
5) Pre-Ceremony Material - Once you select a date, we will send you some pre-trip material to help you prepare. This will include guided meditations, inspiring talks, and further materials to help prime your mind and body in order to ensure you have the most impactful trip.
6) Guided Mushroom Ceremony - Ceremonies typically begin around 11am. We begin with grounding and breathing exercises to center ourselves and a cacao ceremony to honor the Mexican land we are in. We will align on intentions and go over your “flight instructions” i.e. what you might expect to happen during your mushroom trip. We will come prepared with a music playlist. The mushroom dose given will be based on your intent, previous experience, and body size. 30 minutes to an hour after ingestion the psychedelic effects will begin to kick in. Under the sensory deprivation of an eye mask and noise-canceling headphones, you will be placed in your own world of sound, visions, and profound experiences that the mushrooms will lead you through. An experienced facilitator will be present during the entire trip to support your energetic, emotional, and physical needs. The trip can take anywhere between 4-7 hours followed by a closing of the session and an hour of debriefing and sharing your experience.
7) Post ceremony Integration - There are two 1-on-1 integration meetings offered after your session. One immediately after your ceremony, and the other a couple of weeks after. As powerful as a mushroom session can be, healing is a journey and not a one-time event. Integration is a process and it can take weeks, months, or even years to fully understand and assimilate the learnings from your psychedelic experience. Rest assured, we are here to provide support and resources throughout your journey.
