Mazatec Mushroom Retreat - Colorado

This event is FULL.  There is another Mazatec Mushroom Retreat in Colorado the FOLLOWING WEEK (April 16-19) with available rooms!  (Click here)

You are invited to participate in an intimate retreat that includes two ceremonies in the ancient tradition of the Mazatec people of Oaxaca, Mexico. These ceremonies are profound spiritual undertakings that trace their origins back through generations. It became known worldwide in the 1950s and 60s through Maria Sabina, a medicine woman who first opened the ceremony of the holy children (mushrooms) to the world. Centuries of wisdom and reverence for the “holy children” have culminated in a sacred practice designed to facilitate deep introspection, spiritual healing, and divine communion.

Beyond the two ceremonies, we offer traditional Mazatec readings, healings, and teachings, together with thoughtful preparation and integration support before, during, and after your ceremonies, so you can embody and sustain the wisdom of this experience over time.

THE LOCATION

Our retreat center is nestled on 5 acres of aspen groves, towering evergreens, and picturesque rock outcrops. Situated in South Park County, Colorado, breathtaking views of the Mosquito Range peaks are visible from every vantage point. The center exudes intimacy with ample natural light and an open communal space.

A spacious deck with seating provide space to gather with others or enjoy a quiet moment. Secluded seating spots tucked in around the property are a favorite for meditation and solace. The ceremonies will take place indoors surrounded in the majestic beauty of the natural surroundings.

.

The ceremonies take place at night, enveloped in a tapestry of songs, prayers, and a profound connection with the divine. Above all, it embraces the sanctity of silence, providing a sacred space for connecting with the profound depths of your soul.

Within the Mazatec community, psilocybin mushrooms are seen as sacred allies, bridging the gap between the physical and spiritual realms. They are believed to carry the essence of a divine consciousness, offering healing, wisdom, and connection to the sacred forces of the universe.

One of the spiritual leaders of this tradition, “Hugo Esteban Perez,” will join us to share three ceremonies. He started working with Maria Sabina when he was 9 years old as her translator and continued his studies with many of the Mazatec elders. He is recognized by the Mexican government as a healer of this tradition and has received legal permission to work with psilocybin mushrooms.

We take a holistic approach to optimal wellbeing and spiritual development designed to deepen your experience and offer extensive preparation and integration support before and after focused on lasting results. During the retreat, we use several modalities to enhance your experience, such as breath work and meditation. To help you feel at your optimal best organic and locally sourced (where possible) meals are included during your stay with us.
