Am I a fit for this program?
This retreat is designed for individuals navigating prolonged grief from experiences such as the loss of a loved one, divorce, the passing of a beloved pet, or other significant life changes. It is intended for those who have moved beyond the acute phase of grief, as undergoing a psilocybin experience during that stage may intensify already overwhelming emotions and hinder the healing process. Instead, this retreat is best suited for those who feel a sense of ‘stuckness’ in their grieving journey and are seeking a path forward.
Benefits of Psilocybin for Prolonged Grief
For those who have been struggling with prolonged grief, psilocybin can be a powerful tool in the journey toward healing and reclaiming a full, meaningful life.

“I participated in Odyssey's grief retreat, and found it truly profound—something you have to experience firsthand to fully understand… The facilitators were knowledgeable about plant medicine and grief—two areas that were equally important to me. Their experience with grief work made all the difference. They were compassionate, patient, and fully committed, giving so much of themselves to each attendee. It was clear that they truly cared about everyone in the group.”

What to expect on an Odyssey Retreat
Contemplation
The serene environment of the weekend retreat provides the perfect opportunity for meaningful reflection and profound conversation.
Emotional Safety
Guided by skilled facilitators, participants open themselves to vulnerability and curiosity. Tears are not only welcomed but encouraged as part of the healing journey.
Intentionality
Our retreats are specifically designed for individuals navigating life’s challenges. While psychedelics may be used recreationally, very few attend our retreats with that intention, as our focus is on personal growth and healing.
Bonding
The intensity of shared experiences fosters deep connections among participants, creating a sense of community and understanding.
What Our clients say
This experience was life changing in so many ways. It's like giving your soul a chance to be reunited with your body amidst breath taking scenery in a loving, safe environment. I felt like all of the facilitators were highly trained, empathetic, ethical and wonderful listeners. It was well worth the time and financial investment. I may even say it was more affordable than it should have been after seeing all that went in to it.
