Details of this retreat

Do you sense there's more to life?

Are you ready to open your heart?

Are you longing to reconnect with your true essence and life purpose?

The hallucinogenic substance mescaline can be found in Peyote and San Pedro cacti. San Pedro, also known as Huachuma, is a cactus from the Andes mountains in South America. A journey with this sacred plant medicine can open your heart and offer deep and meaningful insights. San Pedro changes the way you experience your thoughts, identity, sensory perception, environment, and time. You may start to see, smell, and hear colors, smells, and music more intensely and differently, feel intense bodily sensations, and experience hallucinations or visions.
Sometimes the experience is so magic and strong that the sense of self falls away and you feel like you are merging with 'all that exists’. Mescaline is also known to enhance problem-solving abilities, make one more creative and alleviate mental issues such as anxiety, addiction and trauma.

A journey with this sacred medicine takes approximately 8-10 hours. It teaches with loving strength, it may guide you through:
- Emotional release and forgiveness
- Connection to nature and the divine
- Insight into relationships, purpose, and life direction
- A deep sense of joy, presence, and unity

For this session we work with San Pedro extract: 100% pure San Pedro, without the negative side effects on the stomach.

Experienced and dedicated guides create a safe and loving space where you are deeply held, and everything is welcome. The process starts with an intake video call where we help you prepare mentally, clarify your intention, and offer integration support after the retreat.

Thank you!
We had a private session (as a couple) with Sanne, where we felt safe and taken care of. It was the first such experience for us and we were glad we chose her as our guide into the unknown. She brought good energy which was super important for us. The good thing is that you get to talk to her first before making a final decision to go ahead. Follow-up session was also a nice closure, with tips on how to progress further on our journey.
Thank you, Sanne!

Een warme en onvergetelijke ervaring
Ik heb een prachtige retraite gevolgd bij coming Home. De locatie ligt in een serene, natuurlijke omgeving die meteen rust brengt. Het huis zelf voelt warm en uitnodigend aan, alsof je bij vrienden thuiskomt.

De begeleiding was bijzonder professioneel én enorm hartelijk. De begeleiders zijn lieve, aangename mensen die je op een veilige en zorgzame manier door het hele proces leiden.

Een absolute meerwaarde waren de zalige percussies tijdens de ceremonies die zorgden voor diepgang, verbinding en een heerlijke sfeer. En als kers op de taart was er de open haard, die alles nog gezelliger maakte.

Kortom: een retraite die ik met heel mijn hart kan aanraden. Een plek om écht tot jezelf te komen.

Overall Good Experience
I came to the Coming Home retreat center the day before the session and it is a beautiful place in the countryside before Amsterdam.
The surroundings are very nice it is like your in a Jungle and Joost the owner has build a spectacular retreat area.
The preparation of the ceremony was fine with good information.
Sanne the facilitator is a fantastic person very present and makes you feel calm.
we were 6 participants with totally different backgrounds and we also had very different experiences during the session. But I think we all enjoyed the place, food and hosts. Thanks Sanne and Joost for your hospitality.

I recommend Coming Home to you that want an overall good experience in a Group settings.
It was my first session and i don't want to change anything.

As a Personally note I think that my next ceremony will be individual.
I easily get uneasy when i go deep in my emotions and the noise and outburst during the session from the other participant was not the best cocktail for me during the part of the session where I felt most voundable.
