Mycelia’s Psilocybin Retreats Are Picking Up Steam in Jamaica

Psilocybin retreats in Jamaica are becoming increasingly popular, offering an entirely different experience compared to the more traditional ways of exploring the mystical and spiritual.

Often taking place in secluded and tranquil settings in the heart of Jamaica, these retreats focus on connecting with nature and embracing one’s own mental and emotional wellbeing. 

Even more fascinating is the growing number of anecdotal reports that support the evidence presented by clinical trials and meta-analyses over the last five years. Participants are describing a newfound sense of connection, reduced symptoms of depression and anxiety, and improved creativity.

Amidst the plethora of retreat centers emerging across Jamaica, Mycelia Psilocybin Retreats has been attracting notable attention. In the past year, two documentaries have spotlighted Mycelia’s team, delving into the nascent industry of magic mushroom retreats and their impact on Jamaica’s local economy. Situated in Ocho Rios, the retreat offers guests the chance to partake in guided psilocybin ceremonies, following an extensive pre-screening process aimed at evaluating individual needs, internal family systems, and both mental and physical health requirements.

Guests have the freedom to choose between either a 4-day weekend getaway or an immersive 7-day experience, both of which provide visitors with all the necessary preparation and integration activities that need to take place for sustained positive results.

During the retreat, participants are invited to explore the region’s private beaches and breathtaking river settings. Meanwhile, the staff assesses each visitor’s sensitivity to magic mushrooms. This process helps to optimize individual dosage, aiming to foster breakthrough experiences and minimize the likelihood of challenging experiences during the psilocybin-facilitated ceremonies.

“Whether it’s deepening one’s knowledge of magic mushrooms or diving into an inner journey, our psilocybin retreats offer something that no traditional vacation can match”, says Troy Tennison, the Jamaican-based Mycelia VIP host who founded Mycelia.

Who Can Benefit from Mycelia’s Psilocybin Retreats?

The retreats are sensitive to each individual. “Our programs were designed to fit everyone’s needs whether it be psychiatric or spiritual”, says Troy. “We often accept guests with depression, anxiety, or trauma. However, we also offer the possibility for the psychedelic-curious to find a better understanding of themselves and achieve spiritual growth. This is what we call our ‘mystical experience’.”

Customizable Retreats

Mycelia provides professional and customizable retreats designed for corporate CEOs who would like to strengthen their relationship with their employees, or sales teams who might benefit from a close personal experience. They also offer retreats for couples seeking to explore their relationship, or anyone looking to explore the effects of altered states of consciousness. By combining ancestral practices with modern-day research, these programs help guests explore the hidden parts of their psyche, maladaptive behaviors, the root causes of trauma, and their connection with themselves, others, and the nature.

Through specially crafted journeys, the user will gain insight into their needs and be enabled to make meaningful and lasting changes in their lives. 

Mycelia’s Harm Reduction Protocols

Before any guest is able to book their retreat, Mycelia assesses their current wellbeing, fitness level, and any potential interactions with medications. Only after the fact, clients are able to reserve their booking.

“Our programs have very high safety standards. We work with top level therapists who are pioneers in the psychedelic space”, Troy continues. “Our psychotherapist, facilitators, massage therapists and myself are here to provide guidance and help our clients to achieve the maximum potential from their psychedelic experience during their stay.”  

“I have guided over 200 psychedelic experiences and have never encountered any negative outcomes or bad trips”, says Jordan James, one of Mycelia’s professionally trained practitioners. “Our guides are specialized in turning any psychedelic journey into something beautiful.”

Where is Mycelia Located?

Just minutes away from Ocho Rios’ many attractions, the psilocybin retreat is located on top of a hillside where visitors can enjoy stunning views overlooking the Caribbean Sea – providing their guests all the security & privacy necessary for a relaxing experience.

“Our visitors psychedelic experience is enhanced by exploring all the tropical beauty of the north coast,” says Jordan. “To a lot of them, it’s about increasing their connection to nature.”

The retreat offers an intimate experience for those who want to explore the healing potential of psilocybin mushrooms.
