Being Taken Care Of
This retreat is an invitation to rest inside care.
Not a weekend away. Not an experience you are meant to manage on your own.
A slow, intentional arc of support that begins weeks before you arrive and continues after you return home.
You do not need to arrive prepared, brave, or certain. You only need to arrive as you are.
For three weeks before the retreat, and three weeks after, we gather for several hours by Zoom. These circles are where trust forms, where questions are welcomed, and where your body begins to feel that it does not have to do this alone. Integration is not an afterthought here. It is the heart of the work.
We hold the space with care, quiet respect, and deep attentiveness to what survivorship actually asks of a person.
You are welcome to explore a sample retreat schedule to sense the rhythm of our days together.

What’s Not Included
Travel
Psilocybin itself
Psilocybin is paid directly to the service center and varies by dosage. Typical costs range from approximately $50 to $80 for a smaller dose and $100 to $200 or more for a larger dose ceremony.
Bringing a Journey Guest
If it feels supportive, you may bring a journey guest to share your room for an additional $2,000. Guests must also be cancer survivors and cleared to participate. This option is often chosen by close friends, or survivors who have walked parallel paths.
Why This Is Different
Most psychedelic experiences focus on the moment of ceremony.
We focus on the human being who must live with what unfolds.
This retreat was created by cancer survivors, for cancer survivors. It is shaped by lived experience of diagnosis, treatment, remission, uncertainty, and the strange terrain that comes after the world tells you that you are “done.”
We work inside state-regulated, legal frameworks. We collaborate with licensed service centers and medical professionals. We move slowly. We prepare thoroughly. We integrate patiently.
There is no pressure to break through, transcend, or perform healing.
Instead, there is room for grief, relief, fear, tenderness, and the quiet questions that survivorship leaves behind.
This is not a clinic. It is not a ceremony-only container. And it is not a wellness retreat that asks you to be positive or strong.
Our Mission
Our mission is to create safe, legal, and genuinely accessible healing experiences.
We offer these retreats at cost. Even so, we know that cost can still feel impossible. If finances are a barrier, we invite you to reach out. Pay what you can. We will work with you.
What matters most is that this reaches the people it was created for.
To name the reality plainly, the market rate for what is included here would typically exceed $6,000. Through our nonprofit model and the generosity of donors, most participants are able to attend for roughly half of that amount.
For comparison, pursuing even a single ceremony on your own, without this level of preparation and integration, often costs around $2,000.
Scholarships and Reciprocity
Those who are able to contribute the full amount help make it possible for others to attend.
This is a community model rooted in reciprocity, not profit.
Participants are invited to self-select their contribution based on their means.
