Begin Your Journey

Psilocybin Ceremonies and Connections in Comfort

This eco-friendly Magic Mushroom Retreat brings together beautiful knowledge from mother earth to help you gain a new perspective on yourself and your life, make new connections, and appreciate the beauty of our natural world. Our retreat center is located in the lush mountains of Monteverde, Costa Rica, where you'll enjoy inspiring views and natural connection in one the most bio-diverse ecosystems on the planet.

Our center is a beautiful solar-powered healing sanctuary with sweeping ocean and jungle views, which has been used exclusively for plant-medicine retreats.  This is a truly incredible place to do medicine work - a spiritual center of a highly-experienced and devoted community of medicine carriers from different indigenous traditions.

Our Psilocybin Retreat is structured with a unique itinerary designed to facilitate rapid personal growth through a multi-modal approach, working with the Psilocybin Mushrooms in a highly-intentional space, incorporating the natural environment as an integral part of the experience.

Between each Psilocybin Mushroom Ceremony, you will have plenty of time to relax, reflect, journal, and integrate. There will be opportunities to take a yoga class, be guided with meditation, get a massage, or just take some time to explore your inner world.

What can I expect from attending a Psilocybin Retreat in Behold's Costa Rica Location??

Our Psilocybin retreats in Costa Rica typically last 6 to 7 days, providing the spaciousness needed for a transformative journey.At the heart of the experience are our Psilocybin ceremonies, which are inspired by indigenous traditions. While these retreats do not replicate any one tradition, they honor the wisdom and spirit of ancestral use guiding you through a structured process that prioritizes healing and personal transformation.Ceremonies are intentionally sequenced to support your journey: we begin with a gentler dose to introduce the medicine and build trust, followed by deeper ceremonial experiences designed to help you access insight, clarity, and emotional release at a deeper level.Beyond the medicine, the communal dimension of the retreat is equally meaningful. Our small group format fosters genuine connection, personalized attention, and a safe, intimate container for growth. You'll be supported throughout by experienced facilitators, plenty of integration sessions and space for self-reflection.

Is Psilocybin therapy safe?

Psilocybin therapy, when administered under professional care, offers a promising pathway for healing, largely due to its favorable safety profile and minimal addiction risk. To ensure the highest safety standards and maximize therapeutic benefit, treatment is conducted within a highly controlled clinical environment supported by rigorous patient screening. While the substance can cause temporary, manageable physical effects like a brief rise in heart rate, individuals with pre-existing severe cardiovascular conditions are carefully excluded as a precaution. Psychological experiences, though sometimes challenging and intense, are mitigated by the continuous presence of expert, compassionate facilitators trained to guide patients through difficult emotional terrain. For safety, a key part of the screening process is ruling out any personal or family history of psychotic disorders, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, to protect vulnerable individuals. This careful, structured approach, including protocols for managing medication interactions, confirms that safety is integrated into the entire medical and therapeutic framework, empowering a positive and secure experience.

Do I need prior experience with plant medicine to join this retreat?

No prior experience is needed. Many guests join with no background in plant medicine. Our team provides preparation guidance before the retreat, and experienced facilitators support you throughout the entire journey.

Loved most: The team at resonance and the space for community they’ve created. They are very special and welcoming. I’d change the hike/horseback riding activity. It was too hot, dry and the tide was uncomfortable. Felt jarring in what was otherwise a well orchestrated week!
