Self Contact Retreat: A 5-MeO-DMT intimate group dive into the self
Description: The God Molecule, 5-MeO-DMT, has helped us and hundreds of journeyers connect to ourselves, humanity, and nature.
Our team of competent and compassionate 5-MeO-DMT facilitators create a community with and for our journeyers that is founded on love, respect, and honesty. From the foundation of trust and camaraderie, we build a temple for our psychedelic sacrament, 5-MeO-DMT, to be experienced with safety, care, and inspiration.
We welcome you to explore our proudest work, Self Contact Retreat:
Who It’s For: The people who get the most from Self Contact Retreat come in with a sincere desire for transformation and a dedication to doing the sometimes difficult inner work that it requires. They have also built a solid foundation of stability—whether in finances, health, or community—in their lives that gives them the space to take a step back from the responsibilities of daily life to explore their inner depths. And having gone to those depths, they are able to bring their authentic selves out into the world.
