Tangerine Retreat

The initiator of Tangerine Retreat, Arnaud is a curious and optimistic individual. After completing his engineering studies, he developed a growing interest in personal exploration through EMDR, music therapy, and breathwork. He then trained in Ericksonian Hypnosis, Symbolic and Spiritual Hypnosis, and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). A few years ago, his personal quest transformed upon discovering psychedelics and psilocybin. Sensitive to the role of instinct and the subconscious in personal trajectories, Arnaud found true meaning in the concept of a psychedelic retreat, at the crossroad

Mourad is a mind explorer, passionate about the hidden treasures within each individual. He enjoys experiencing and facilitating change and its energy. He provides support during times of questioning and awakening. A connoisseur of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and active listening, Mourad approaches guidance by creating a space of Presence, allowing each individual the freedom to express themselves.

Trained in Sylvotherapy (therapy linked to the benefits of the forest on our state of health) 5th year of training in Ressource sensorielle (mind-body pedagogy) Passionate about breathing, I practice and train in various breathing techniques that expand consciousness.

Hanneke’s experience is rooted in applied psychology, somatic practice, and natural methods. She is currently pursuing a master’s program in spiritual care. Throughout her life, she has been passionate about discovering what life is, existential questions… Who are we? and What do we call “being human”? This quest has led her to explore both inner worlds and study different cultures, views of existence, and spiritual practices. Hanneke practices psychology and coaching tailored to everyday life and burnout, and has been working with psychedelics since 2012.

David is a curious and compassionate facilitator, motivated by the desire to understand and explore the transformative potential within each individual. After a pivotal experience with psychedelics at the age of 20 that helped him through a difficult period, he immediately knew he wanted to dedicate his life to the world of plant medicines. He left the field of cognitive neuroscience and pursued studies in clinical psychology. He then immersed himself in the shamanic traditions of Costa Rica and Peru to learn about ayahuasca.
