By “psychedelic,” I mean experiences that go beyond the narrow meaning of the term and are had in deeply altered states of consciousness (trance). Etymologically, the term means “that which reveals the soul.” In other words, that which connects us with our soul and our innermost being, and thus also with life, nature, and the universe.
We work with substances that are legal in the respective country and have been tested by us for their suitability. And we work with other, similarly profound methods, in particular breathwork.
Normally, a retreat consists of two sessions, either two sessions with different substances, or one session with substances and one as a double session with breathwork (as a participant, you are once a "sitter" and once a "breather"). The sessions are embedded in preliminary talks and sharing circles to clarify your intention, preparatory exercises, and integration work. Depending on the length of the retreat and the needs of the group, additional tools such as shamanic journeys or the medicine wheel may be used, or we may use dance or movement to connect with our bodies. Materials for painting and collages are available at all times; this is also part of the integration process. The integration also includes an online meeting of the group a few weeks after the retreat.
A maximum of twelve participants will be supported by two to three facilitators, depending on the size of the group. All facilitators are appropriately trained and have extensive personal experience with altered states of consciousness.
Since we are among women, a very special safe space can be created. Many women find it easier to trust and open up in such a special atmosphere than they would in a mixed group.
The sessions have a ceremonial framework. Music carries the experience. You are on your own, very personal journey, guided by your intention and by that what is often referred to as the inner healer. The facilitators provide support as needed, for example with bodywork, questions or suggestions, or simply by holding the space for whatever arises and wants to be experienced in that moment of the journey. There is relatively little talking, because the aim is not to feed the mind (that comes later, during the integration process), but to experience this journey with your whole being, with your soul, body and emotions.
The group setting means that you do not have the full attention of a guide all the time. However, the group is part of the framework and space that holds your own experience; it can be an important witness and valuable mirror, in deep connection with you through shared activity.
The main language during the retreat is English, unless only German speakers are present. One-to-one conversations can also be conducted in German or other languages.
Simple, tastefully designed double or triple rooms are available for accommodation. Meals are vegetarian, partly vegan, and mostly organic.
If you are interested, you are invited to contact me via email or messenger (+49-176-45503994, SMS, WhatsApp, Signal, Threema) for a preliminary talk!
Next date:
March 4th to 8th, Allgäu (South Germany)
The retreat takes place in a wonderfully suited seminar house surrounded by greenery. I will share the exact location after registration. A day between sessions can be used for rest or for additional activities, such as shamanic work or dance and movement, depending on the needs and interests of the group. Art materials are available at all times.
The accommodation is in simple, comfortable double and triple rooms. Meals are vegetarian and mostly organic and are prepared by us, although we welcome help in the kitchen. The number of participants is limited to 12, and the main language is English.
The retreat begins on Wednesday, March 4th, at 6 pm, and ends on Sunday, March 8th, around 3 pm. It is possible to arrive a day early or stay a day longer, but this requires immediate registration. The cost for the additional nights is 35 EUR without meals.
Please register with me as soon as possible; the final registration deadline is February 1st, 2026.
The cost is between 1,000 and 1,450 EUR, depending on your financial situation, and includes the entire retreat (excluding additional nights), a mandatory preliminary meeting with me, and an integration meeting via Zoom for the entire group a few weeks after the retreat.
I would like to invite those who are willing and financially able to make a generous contribution above the upper price limit mentioned above. I believe that this work is so valuable and so profoundly transformative that no one should be excluded from it, but I need help to make that happen. The additional contributions will be collected in a fund and will be used in the future to support those who would otherwise not be able to afford to participate. This option will probably not be available for this retreat (unless a participant announces in advance that she would like to make a contribution). However, if you feel called to participate but have concerns about the cost, please contact me anyway, and perhaps we can find another solution.
Additional date: December 9th to 13th, 2026, also in South Germany
