About this Retreat
Niels leads transformative State of Mind retreats, where he integrates breathwork, psilocybin, and inner work to guide individuals on personalised journeys of self-discovery. As the visionary behind both State of Mind Retreats and Breath Inspiration, he creates unique experiences for those seeking deeper inner connection.
Niels's path took a defining turn following a personal encounter with burnout. This led him to breathwork and various disciplines, which now shape his entrepreneurial pursuits. A certified breathwork facilitator, Niels conducts monthly breathwork sessions, hosts ice bath events, and has authored a book about his first retreat experience, Men's Weekend.
As a catalyst for change, Niels empowers others to unlock their resilience and overcome obstacles. With a dedication to mindful living, he shares profound insights for those embracing transformative journeys.
''True success isn't measured by external achievements alone but by the depth of connection to oneself and others.'' Niels
Tinus is a Plant Medicine Facilitator at Elevated Mind Retreats, guiding participants through psilocybin ceremonies and breathwork. His calm, steady presence helps people feel safe as they explore deeper layers of themselves.
His approach is rooted in years of personal psychedelic experience, inner work, and the transformation that followed a period of burnout. This path led him into yoga, somatic work, and plant medicine, where he learned the power of presence, breath, and letting go.
With training in yoga, somatic practices, and breathwork, Tinus offers a grounded, balanced style of facilitation—supporting each person with steadiness and integrity throughout their journey.
