PSYCHEDELIC MINDFULNESS PROGRAM

HEALING THE HEALERS:
RETREAT FOR END-OF-LIFE CARE PROFESSIONALS
JUNE 11-14, 2026

Healing the Healers is a retreat for chaplains, nurses, physicians, social workers, death doulas, hospice workers, and others who accompany patients through life's most sacred threshold. With the support of ketamine sessions, held gently within a container of mindfulness and community, this retreat turns the same quality of presence you offer your patients back toward yourself. You sit with the dying, absorb their grief, and carry what cannot be set down. Here, you are invited to set it down, to rest. Guided safely and intentionally, you'll be met with the same compassion you freely extend to your patients — because those who tend the dying deserve tending, too. Healing the Healers isn't about leaving our work behind. It's about returning to it whole.

HERE AND WHOLE:
RETREAT FOR TERMINALLY-ILL PATIENTS AND THEIR LOVED ONES
DECEMBER 3-6, 2026

Here and Whole is a retreat for humans approaching one of life's greatest mysteries — patients navigating a terminal diagnosis, and the partners, children, and friends who love them. With the support of ketamine sessions, held within a container of mindfulness and community, this retreat opens space for what often goes unspoken: the fear, the grief, the love, the unfinished. This passage deserves more than endurance. Here, you are invited to soften around it, to rest inside it, to find soulful ease within the uncertainty. Guided gently and skillfully, you'll discover room for honesty, for tenderness, and for one another — because dying, and loving someone who is dying, asks everything of us. Here and Whole isn't about resolution. It's about arriving fully into this moment, open-handed and open-hearted. Scholarships available for qualifying participants.
