7-Day Residential Psilocybin Group Retreat
Summer Retreat: 22nd to 28th June 2026
Autumn Retreat: 9th to 15th November 2026
New Eden, The Netherlands
A Transformational Journey into Non-Ordinary States of Consciousness
Our open GLT Nordic Psychedelic Retreats are taking place in the Netherlands, a legal and highly held container for deep healing and transformation.
This is an invitation to journey inward – into the vast depths of your own psyche, spirit, and being – guided by the Grof lineage of psychedelic therapy.
In this intimate 7-day retreat, each participant will experience two psilocybin sessions, supported at all times by a sitter and an experienced facilitation team. The retreat includes comprehensive integration processes, both during and after the experience, ensuring that your insights become meaningful change. Places are intentionally limited to a maximum of 10-12 participants so we can maintain the depth, presence, and individual attention this work requires.
The Grof Legacy Approach
This retreat is rooted in the pioneering work of Dr. Stanislav Grof, one of the world’s foremost researchers into psychedelic therapy and non-ordinary states of consciousness.
A hallmark of the Grof approach is the sitter–experiencer model, where participants work in pairs.
On two days, you will journey with psilocybin as an experiencer, held by a dedicated sitter and a team of facilitators. On two other days, you will hold space for someone else’s journey.
This reciprocal process creates profound connection, safety, and reverence—enriching both the giver and the receiver.
Who is this retreat for?
This retreat is designed for those with a sincere intention for healing, insight, or spiritual growth. Whether you are new to psychedelics or already experienced, the Grof framework offers a powerful and contained space for profound transformation.
All participants undergo a comprehensive medical and psychological screening.
This retreat is not suitable for individuals with certain psychiatric diagnoses or those taking contraindicated medications.
Safety and integrity are central to our work.

Integration as a core practice
The real journey begins after the ceremony.
Psychedelic experiences can offer profound insights, emotional breakthroughs, and deep healing — but without integration, those powerful moments risk fading into memory. At our retreats, we emphasize integration because it’s where true lasting transformation happens.
Integration is woven throughout the retreat and continues beyond the 7 days we spend together.
We offer daily integration circles during the retreat, a full day dedicated to integration (Day 6), one post-retreat online group integration session, and a private Whatsapp or Telegram group for continued connection.
Extra personalized 1:1 sessions will be available at an additional cost for those who want to delve deeper or get extra support outside of the group setting.

Testimonials
Everything felt deeply safe, sacred, and genuine. The team’s presence, care, and sensitivity created the perfect container for surrender and healing. I felt completely supported in every moment.
The daily integration group sessions were beautiful and meaningful. Sharing and listening in the group helped me process my journey on a deeper level. It felt like a gentle continuation of the medicine work. It helped me bring the ineffable into words. The reflections and presence of the facilitators allowed the insights to land in my heart and body.
This retreat has changed me in ways words can hardly express. Everything the team, the setting, the energy ,felt divinely orchestrated. Thank you for creating such a sacred and flawless space for transformation.
