THE INVITATION
This is not just a retreat.
It is an invitation.

This immersion is for the woman who is ready to stop leaving herself behind. Not because she is broken, but because somewhere along the way she learned to abandon herself in order to survive. Here, you don’t have to earn your place, prove your worth, or arrive as anything other than who you are. We hold space with compassion, curiosity, and deep respect for your unique journey, allowing you to unfold in your own time. You have spent years holding everything together – for your work, your family, your
relationships, and everyone who depends on you. You’ve done your best. You’ve kept going. And still, something inside you is quietly asking for something more.

Permission is not given by anyone else. It is reclaimed – quietly, in the body, one honest moment at a time. It is not earned through more doing, more proving, or more holding it together. It lives in four places.

Permission to rest. Setting down what you carry, without needing to have earned the pause.

Permission to trust yourself again. Believing your own knowing again, even when it is quiet.

Permission to receive. Letting care, nourishment, and support land, instead of deflecting them.

Permission to come home to yourself. Returning to the woman beneath everything you have been carrying.

Across three psilocybin ceremonies — a gentle opening dose, the signature 5am dawn journey, and a closing ceremony held in community – the noise of obligation and self-judgment softens, and what’s underneath is finally free to surface. Cacao opens the heart gently at the start of the week. Three guided breathwork journeys move what the medicine reveals into the body, so it
settles as lasting change.

The eight-day permission arc.

DAY 1. OCT 17 The Uncoiling
Arrival, orientation, and downregulation. Meeting the land and the circle, slowing the nervous system, and clarifying what sovereignty means for you.

DAY 2 . OCT 18 – CEREMONY ONE Meeting the Medicine
An opening cacao ceremony and ceremony preparation, followed by a gentle, carefully calibrated first dose. The focus is establishing safety in the body, recognizing adaptive patterns, and building trust with the plant ally, the facilitators, and the circle. Facilitators stay close, offering somatic support throughout.

DAY 3 . OCT 19 . BREATHWORK The Journey Inward
Integration and somatics, anchored by the first guided breathwork journey. Meeting your original blueprint – who you were before conditioning – and welcoming all your parts with compassion.

DAY 4 . OCT 20. CEREMONY TWO The 5am Journeу
Our signature ceremony begins at 5am, when the brain naturally drops into the theta states essential for deep healing. You begin as the sun rises and nature wakes; sound frequencies support release and transcendence.

DAY 5 . OCT 21 – BREATHWORK Sovereignty of Space
The heart of the work, deepened by the second breathwork journey. Boundaries as self-love, releasing shame and resentment, reclaiming sacred rage, permission, and womb connection.

DAY 6 OCТ 22 CEREMONY THREE Community & Music
Our final ceremony uses the Lemon Tek method for a more focused experience, journeyed alongside the circle with live medicine musicians. The emphasis is connection – to yourself, the group, and the healing that has unfolded. Traditional Amazonian hapé is available for those who feel called.

DAY 7. OCT 23. BREATHWORK Your Freedom Body
A third breathwork journey, forgiveness for your own freedom, grace, and expression. Art therapy, a sunset beach walk, and a closing fire ceremony. Reclaiming pleasure.

DAY 8 OCT 24 Resilience & Reclamation
A closing circle to anchor what you found and clarify what you carry forward. You leave with a nervous system that knows what sovereignty feels like.
