About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

Awaken the Mind, Heal the Body, and Nourish the Soul
Join us for a transformational Summer Solstice Ketamine Retreat designed to realign you with the innate wholeness you may have forgotten, but never lost. Set amidst the sacred mountains of the Catskills, this five-day experience combines ketamine therapy with the exploration of the mystery of consciousness itself.


Ketamine quiets the default mode network, the egoic narrator that clings to old stories and survival-based defenses, so the deeper realms of the psyche can finally speak. Beneath the noise of everyday thought live memories, beliefs, and emotional imprints that have been running the show from the shadows. Ketamine softens their grip, dissolving the boundaries that keep us separate from our truth. Suddenly, what once felt too painful to touch becomes accessible with grace, curiosity, and compassion.
This immersive retreat guides you inward, into the intelligence of the body, the spaciousness of the heart, and the subtle language of the soul. Here, the conscious and unconscious meet, revealing pathways to profound insight and lasting transformation. Guided by experienced practitioners who know how to cultivate a Reiki-rich, spiritually alive environment, and supported by the potent energy of the Summer Solstice and sacred land, this container is intentionally crafted for deep transformation. You will explore new ways of perceiving and awaken to the fuller story of who you truly are.

The Land
Menla Resort & Spa rests on land formed by a meteor strike millions of years ago, creating a gravitational field 0.2% lighter than the surrounding region—an energy uniquely conducive to spiritual expansion and healing. This sacred ground, once used ceremonially by the Native Americans, the Mahican and Esopus peoples, continues to hold their wisdom and presence.

Amazing!
What a tender, clean, wonderful space. One can feel the thoughtfulness and contemplative consideration given to each and every detail. The room felt that it was always mine, like I was coming home to a place I've known well, in that it felt so welcoming and open. Beautiful!

Exactly what I needed in this retreat….
My retreat was wonderful. It had everything I was looking for and more. A weekend of yoga, meditation, hiking, and some nice connections with people. Roseanne was wonderful. I would happily do another retreat with her in the future.

The Reconnection Retreat; Nuturing the soul through the 5 elements of nature
As the retreat leader of this particular retreat I want to express how Divine the setting was. There is a natural levity on the property that can’t be explained , only felt.

All of the thoughtful spaces were just so amazing to hold presence for those magical “ Menla moments” that seem to organically occur there.

The staff is beyond accommodating. The food delighted the senses and nourished our bodies. The housing accommodations felt warm and welcoming like a sweet embrace that lingers in the memories.

I still find my face with a random smile through the days after as my thoughts drift back again and agin to the place called Menla.

Invaluable retreat
In the beautiful valley of Menla, Dr James supports learning such profound inner yogas that are honestly priceless. His depth of experience and ability to speak to it is profound and impactful. Every time I’ve learned and trained with James I come off feeling continued inner conviction and confidence. Especially in approaching and navigating the space of difficult emotions. I will continue to train and attend retreats when I can.
