Psilocybin Sessions
In the Psychedelic Enhanced Meditation Retreat, psilocybin serves as a catalyst, not just for insight but for building lasting pathways to deep states of meditation. These sessions are not about escape; they are about access. By amplifying connectivity in the brain, psilocybin helps participants enter and sustain meditative states that might otherwise take years to reach through traditional practice.
Set within the open, natural spaces of our outdoor gardens, each session is designed to support both depth and clarity. The environment offers sensory openness and space for inward focus without distraction. We tailor dosage levels to align with specific meditative techniques, guiding participants to experience profound stillness, clarity, and presence.
The 8-day program includes two carefully monitored macrodose sessions. After the first, we conduct a detailed evaluation of your response, including emotional tone, depth of experience, and physical awareness, to adapt and refine the second session in support of your meditative development. By pairing these peak experiences with advanced techniques such as Fire Kasina, breathwork, and extended silence, we aim to open the doors to higher consciousness and provide the tools to keep them open.
This is not just about what happens during the dose. It is about what becomes possible after.
- Two Macrodose Sessions (5-15 grams)
- Minidose Session (1-3 grams)
- Inverse pyramid schedule (Macro first)
- Daytime, outdoor garden setting featuring private alcoves
- 1:2 Facilitator/Guest ratio

DMT Sessions
In the Psychedelic Enhanced Meditation Retreat, DMT serves as a powerful tool for accessing deep states of awareness in a brief window of time. Known for its intensity and its ability to rapidly amplify consciousness, DMT expands perception across visual, emotional, and somatic dimensions, offering a unique opportunity to experience stillness and insight beyond ordinary reach.
Unlike psilocybin, DMT does not build short-term tolerance, which allows us to enter these brief yet profound psychedelic states more frequently. This makes it particularly useful within a condensed 8-day retreat, where it can be used to sustain momentum between macrodose sessions. DMT also helps restore sensitivity to psilocybin, maintaining its effectiveness throughout the retreat.
Each session is conducted one-on-one, with two facilitators present, and lasts approximately 10 to 15 minutes. The environment is intentionally quiet and free of distractions, allowing for full immersion. While short in duration, the experience often leaves a lasting impression and becomes a meaningful touchpoint for future meditative practice. For many, it becomes a reliable tool for reconnecting with the depth of non-ordinary states, especially when the demands of daily life cause a perceived setback or loss of access to those inner spaces.
With its neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties, and its unique ability to open the mind without disrupting a structured practice, DMT is more than a peak experience. It becomes a practical ally in long-term meditative growth, helping us return, with intention, to the clarity we know is possible.
- Three DMT sessions (up to 40mg vaporized)
- 2:1 Facilitator/Guest ratio
- Daytime, outdoor garden setting
Group Integration Sessions
Integration is the bridge between the psychedelic experience and lasting transformation. Like dreams, these states can be vivid, profound, and full of meaning, yet they can also be complex or even challenging. Without thoughtful reflection, they risk fading into memory. Integration ensures they become tools for growth.
In the Psychedelic Enhanced Meditation Retreat, integration sessions are designed specifically to support the goals of advanced meditative practice. These sessions take place in a group setting, where participants share insights, techniques, and perspectives. This collaborative approach creates a sense of community, helping each person learn not only from their own journey but also from the experiences of others.
The emphasis is not solely on processing the psychedelic sessions, but on weaving those insights into a collective effort toward deeper awareness. Together, participants explore psychological, spiritual, and somatic dimensions of their practice, building resilience and reinforcing the skills needed to maintain access to non-ordinary states.
By working as a group with a shared purpose, these integration sessions transform individual breakthroughs into a foundation for lasting progress, strengthening both personal meditation practice and the community of seekers who undertake it.
Psychedelic-Enhanced Meditation
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies reveal striking similarities between brain activity during meditation and during psychedelic states. In essence, psychedelics can provide a glimpse of what advanced meditation feels like, opening a door to states that can later be cultivated through disciplined practice.
At the Psychedelic Enhanced Meditation Retreat, we engage in meditation and breathwork before, after, and during select psychedelic sessions. This intentional structure allows participants to fully explore how psychedelics can deepen their meditation practice while also learning how to sustain those states without them.
By focusing on the distinct sensations that arise from breathwork and meditation following a psychedelic journey, participants learn to use these techniques as tools to remain connected to expanded states of consciousness. This approach not only prolongs the benefits of psychedelic sessions but also reinforces the foundation of a lasting meditative routine.
Our meditation and breathwork classes empower guests to rediscover and re-enter these states through focused exercises, ensuring that the practice continues to evolve and enrich daily life long after the retreat ends.
Fire Kasina Sessions
Fire Kasina is a concentration-based meditation that involves focusing on the afterimage of a flame to stabilize attention and cultivate vivid internal imagery. With sustained practice, Fire Kasina can lead to the attainment of jhana states, which are deep levels of meditative absorption marked by clarity, stillness, and profound presence.
At the Psychedelic Enhanced Meditation Retreat, we incorporate Fire Kasina both before and after psychedelic sessions. Beforehand, it is used to strengthen concentration and prepare the mind with stability and focus. Afterwards, participants return to the practice to explore how the psychedelic state influences perception, imagery, and the unfolding of meditative depth.
By weaving Fire Kasina into the structure of the retreat, participants experience how psychedelics can amplify their ability to enter altered states of consciousness while also learning to sustain and deepen these states through disciplined practice. This integration highlights the synergy between psychedelics and meditation, offering a powerful pathway to advanced states of awareness that remain accessible long after the retreat.
Sessions with Silence and Darkness
As part of the Psychedelic Enhanced Meditation Retreat, one full day is devoted entirely to silence. This practice removes the need to interact or perform socially, creating space for inward focus and uninterrupted attention to practice.
In silence, the mind begins to settle, and with that stillness, deeper layers of thought and emotion often emerge. Old habits, beliefs, or unresolved feelings may come to the surface. While this can feel uncomfortable at first, it is also clarifying, offering a rare opportunity to see oneself with honesty and without distraction.
By dedicating a day to silence, participants learn to redirect their energy inward, strengthening concentration, presence, and insight. What begins as quiet becomes a powerful teacher, guiding the mind toward greater clarity and resilience.

Daily Schedule
Arrival & Orientation
Guests arrive in the afternoon to Eleusinia’s private mountain estate via shuttle from Mexico City. The day includes a welcome snack of tamales and champurrado, followed by personalized intake meetings with the medical team, a neuroscience-based presentation on the intersection of psychedelics and meditation, and a welcome session with our curandera.
Meditative Preparation
The day begins early with a silent forest hike after breakfast, setting a calm and reflective tone. Around midday, participants take part in a traditional Temascal, a sweat lodge experience that encourages release and renewal. In the evening, the first Fire Kasina and breathwork session introduces candle gazing and the foundations of jhana practice. This session helps establish a personal baseline of concentration and presence, preparing participants for the first macrodose the following day and creating a foundation to build upon throughout the retreat.
First Psilocybin Macrodose
The day begins early with an orientation, breathwork, and meditation to prepare for the first macrodose session. The outdoor psilocybin experience lasts approximately six hours with individual private garden spaces.
DMT, Silent Session, Forest Hike
Each guest follows a personalized morning schedule that includes a private DMT session and an en suite massage to encourage rest and integration. At the conclusion of the DMT session, the silent portion of the retreat begins and continues until the following day. The afternoon is dedicated to small group contemplative forest hikes, offering time for reflection in nature. In the evening, participants return to Fire Kasina meditation, with the opportunity to observe how the psychedelic sessions have influenced and deepened their individual practice.
Second DMT Practice and Dining in the Dark
The morning begins with a group integration session, creating space to share insights and strengthen collective understanding. In the afternoon, guests take part in individual DMT sessions in the garden. This session is highly customized, with each guest choosing a preferred spot and being provided with their own vaporizer. Participants are encouraged to explore more independently for up to an hour, engaging in multiple sessions at their own pace. The day concludes with a blindfolded dinner, a sensory exploration that reveals how removing sight can heighten and expand our other senses.
Second Psilocybin Macrodose
Similar in structure to the first macrodose day, the second psilocybin session serves as both a continuation and a refinement of the journey. Guests have the opportunity to adjust their dose and intentions, drawing on the insights and clarity gained from their first experience. Many find that this second session feels more vivid and rewarding as they become more comfortable navigating the psychedelic state. As before, the session takes place in private garden settings with attentive support throughout, followed by nourishing food and time to recover and reflect.
DMT Extraction Class, TRE, and Psilocybin Minidose
The day begins with an optional DMT extraction class for those interested in continuing a personal practice beyond the retreat. Midday is reserved for journaling and relaxation, offering time for reflection and integration. In the afternoon, participants engage in a TRE class to explore a somatic approach to meditation, followed by a psilocybin minidose session. The evening closes with a cacao ceremony, a communal ritual that marks the transition toward the retreat’s conclusion.
Day 8 – Departure
A final breakfast is served at 8:00 AM, followed by a 9:30 AM shuttle departure back to Mexico City.
