Women Rising

3-day psilocybin retreat

December 30 - January 1

Culemborg, Netherlands

We are the light and the darkness.

We are creation and destruction.

We are more powerful than we know.

We come together and remember.

You are invited on a powerful plant medicine retreat to welcome in the new year. This retreat is for all women, of all ages and backgrounds.

Join us as we gather to celebrate the Divine Feminine wisdom that lives in our bodies, hearts and spirits. With fun and laughter, we will explore womanhood through nature, womb work, voice work, dance, breath, and plant medicine. Nestled in nature and supported by the elements, we will make space to remember and reconnect.

The program

  • Psilocybin Ceremony

    You will be guided on a psychedelic journey consisting of a ceremonial high dose of psilocybin. We will offer other sacred plant medicines such as rapé (tobacco) & cacao.

  • Movement & Meditation

    Connect with your body, your self and with nature through:

    -Embodied movement practice

    -Sauna & cold immersion

    -Fire ceremony

  • Breathwork

    Learn to harness the power of your breath for healing and growth. You will be guided through a deep circular breathing session that will allow you to access expanded states of consciousness.

  • Women's Circles

    Being together in circle provides a powerful container for self-enquiry and healing. We will gather for sharing circles, singing circles, and authentic relating practices to activate our voices and empower one another.

  • Preparation & Integration

    Our three-week preparation & integration program includes one group preparatory call before the retreat, and one group integration call after the retreat, as well as continued integration support to enable deep transformation.

The location

The venue is a beautiful family estate known as “De Tabakschuur” (The Tobacco Barn). The grounds around the estate are exceptionally sandy for this area and it is also known as “t Zand”. In the past, tobacco was grown on these light soils.

A lot of fruit was grown in this area in the last 70 years, especially in the 1950s and 1970s. That fruit cultivation has now almost completely disappeared. However, there are still high trees with Goudreinetjes, resistant apple varieties, plums and pears. Everywhere on the property there are places to be alone and enjoy the peace and nature. The estate is about 10 hectares in total.

The property is newly renovated (2022), converting the barns into modern residences alongside a 10-person fire pit, a sauna, and a ceremonial yurt.
