8 Day Shamanic Retreat with Psilocybin and Sacred Plant Ceremonies in Andalusia, Spain
A shamanic immersion through five sacred ceremonies
This retreat is built around something rare: a complete arc of plant medicine work, held safely, in a small intimate group of maximum 12, guided by facilitators with deep lineage training. At a time when so much feels uncertain, making space for inner work is not a luxury — it is a necessity. Rooted in traditional shamanic practices, this immersive retreat moves participants through psilocybin mushroom ceremonies and complementary sacred plant medicines, anchored in a daily rhythm of somatic practices, sound healing, and integration circles — a coherent, well-supported process designed for real and lasting inner change. Guided by Enrico (20 years experience, lineaged Shipibo apprenticeship in Peru), Manuela (somatic and sound healing practitioner), and Marjie (trauma-informed facilitator, 15 years of psychedelic work) — and offered in English, French, and Spanish. Suitable for both first-timers and those with prior experience seeking a deeper, more fully held container.

Two traditional Mongolian yurts are set on tiled platforms within a grove of olive and cherry trees, offering comfortable, cocoon-like accommodation. Each yurt can host up to four people in proper single beds. One yurt is reserved for women and one for men.
Two handcrafted cob roundhouses, inspired by African huts, offer single occupancy in a comfortable single bed. They are built using recycled materials and resources from the land.
All accommodations are located within easy reach of the ecological toilets and the sink and shower area, with hot water available. The eco-toilets nourish the surrounding trees, and their hand-painted windows frame beautiful views over the valley.
Program
This retreat is designed to offer a deep and respectful encounter with sacred plant medicines, rooted in traditional shamanic practice and supported by a grounded framework of preparation and integration.
The primary sacrament used during this retreat is psilocybin mushrooms. Traditional Amazonian practices such as rapé (sacred tobacco snuff) and sananga will also be offered as preparatory rituals.
Miracle Retreats honors the living lineage of these traditions by collaborating with a healer from Peru, ensuring an approach that is both authentic and grounded. To preserve the quality of guidance and the individual attention each participant receives, the group is limited to a maximum of 12 people.
Throughout the retreat, you will be accompanied not only during the ceremonies, but also through daily integration and sharing circles, as well as individual conversations, so that each experience can be welcomed and integrated in a safe and supportive way.
Participant readiness and safety are taken seriously. All participants complete a detailed health and suitability form prior to confirmation. This retreat is not appropriate for individuals with certain psychiatric conditions, pregnancy, epilepsy, serious cardiovascular conditions, or medications that may interact with the medicines. A structured preparation guide is provided in advance to support a responsible and grounded experience.
Digital detox
The retreat offers a true digital detox. Participants are invited to step away from phones and screens and to fully immerse themselves in the rhythm of the retreat, the group, and the surrounding environment. This creates a rare space of presence, simplicity, and real connection.
Yoga, Breathwork & Sound Journeys
The retreat program includes yoga, meditation, and breathwork sessions, with practical techniques that can be used both in daily life and during the ceremonies to support the journey.
Yin yoga & sounds journeys are offered before ceremonies to help settle the body and mind and prepare for the experience.
Holistic massages & energy work
Holistic bodywork and energy sessions can be added to the experience to support balance, grounding, and nervous system regulation.
In addition, individual somatic integration sessions are available for those who wish for more personalized support during the retreat.
Why a one-week program
A one-week retreat offers an ideal balance between depth, safety, and integration. It allows time for preparation, multiple ceremonies, and the gradual assimilation of what is experienced.
This format is suitable both for people new to plant medicine and for those who already have experience and wish to go deeper in a well-supported setting.
The slower rhythm and extended time together create the conditions for meaningful insights, real integration, and a genuine connection with the group and the place.
