Acsauhaya

At Acsauhaya, we organize one-of-kind transformational psychedelic Psilocybin and Ayahuasca retreats. We offer an exceptional experience where people can reconnect with themselves and the world around them in a new and profound way.

Our team have an extensive and extraordinary track record with over 20 years of combined experience working with plant medicine – entheogenic psychedelics – and the indigenous people who are culturally rooted in the uses of these psychedelic plants and fungi.

Having safely guided tens of thousands of participants from all over the world we have witnessed profound metamorphoses: healing, transformation, personal development, and shadow work.

Combining the latest in therapeutic psychedelic science, our experience and inspiration from the ancient wisdom, we create something truly unique for the Western context. We provide a safe, legal, extensive transformational program, from intake to integration, within a cozy and loving environment.

Our team approaches this work with conscious awareness, love, care, and dedication to providing an atmosphere of trust – where you have the confidence to safely open yourself to a new, more balanced you!

Our retreats can help you become more aware of your thoughts, choices, breaking down old habits and beliefs patterns, and how they impact your experience of your reality. Please contact us for more information or if you have any questions in general.

With over 20 years combined experience our ceremony leaders create the perfect environment for you to go through this, at times intense, process. Along with the guides, they act as an anchor during the ceremony providing essential guidance and care when you are deep within the experience.

Our facilitators provide a sacred and safe space for you to explore your inner worlds and outer dimensions for you to fully trust and surrender to the process so you can let go and come to deeper understandings. In those moments when support is necessary we have the knowledge and experience to reassure and provide comfort. However, we are also there for you during the integration phase, offering our guidance and expertise.

The psilocybin ceremonies will be held in our beautiful Yurt, which is specifically designed to offer the most conducive environment for your experience. We chose the Yurt so we can be as close to nature as possible; hearing the rain, wind, birds, and trees, among other things is very beautiful when experiencing psilocybin. Set and setting is very important in this process which is why we decided to create a dedicated space for this.

Before we take the psilocybin and start the actual ceremony, we will have some time with the whole group to share our intentions and reasons for attending. Having a clear intention can really enhance your experience by directing your consciousness to real and lasting transformation (read more about setting intentions).

We provide both private and group retreats. Within the group setting, alongside your individual process, a group process also occurs. During the ceremony we ask you not to leave the ceremonial space as we try to provide as little disturbance to the group dynamic as possible. Of course when you need to go to the bathroom, or briefly need some fresh air this is not a problem. We also ask you not to interact with other participants during this process as it can be very disturbing for your own process as well as for the group.

During the ceremony, we use live music and at times a carefully selected playlist that we have collected over the many years of working with sacred medicine. Often Palo Santo (an incense) and Aqua di Florida (flower water) are used to cleanse the space or provide calming sensations which can also guide or help you while you are in the experience.

The ceremony will last up to 6 hours and dosages are given according to your private conversations with the ceremony leader and their intuitions which are based on extensive experience.
