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.
It is a place to be held by people who understand the cost of staying alive.
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.
To name the reality plainly, the market rate for what is included here would typically exceed $7,000. 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.
