Psychedelic Therapy

Psychedelic therapy combines the use of plant medicines, such as psilocybin (magic mushrooms) or ayahuasca, with professional therapeutic support to facilitate deep psychological healing. Unlike recreational use, therapeutic sessions are carefully structured with preparation, guided experiences, and integration. The medicine helps access subconscious material, process trauma, and create new neural pathways, while trained facilitators ensure safety and help you derive lasting insights from the experience.

Indonesia has complex regulations regarding plant medicines. At Bali Plant Medicine Retreat, we operate with deep respect for both traditional Balinese healing practices and local considerations. We work exclusively with guests who are committed to personal healing within a therapeutic context. During your screening process, we'll discuss all relevant details transparently. We encourage all guests to research and understand the legal landscape of their home country regarding psychedelic therapy.

Psychedelic therapy can be profoundly beneficial for those struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, addiction, grief, existential distress, or those seeking personal and spiritual growth. However, it's not suitable for everyone. Individuals with a personal or family history of psychosis, schizophrenia, or certain bipolar disorders should not participate. Our comprehensive screening process helps determine if you're a good candidate. We also require that you're not currently taking SSRIs, MAOIs, or certain other medications.

Your journey begins well before the ceremony with preparation calls to set intentions and address concerns. During the session itself, you'll be in a comfortable, safe environment with facilitators present throughout. Experiences vary widely, some people have visual journeys, others experience emotional releases, and many report profound insights or spiritual experiences. Sessions typically last 4-8 hours depending on the medicine used. Afterward, you'll have time to rest and begin integration with facilitator support.

Preparation is crucial for a meaningful experience. We recommend: following our dietary guidelines (avoiding alcohol, processed foods, and certain substances for 2+ weeks before), setting clear intentions for your healing, completing any preparatory materials we provide, ensuring adequate rest, and coming with an open mind. We'll guide you through detailed preparation protocols once you're accepted into the program.

Our 3-day retreat is ideal for those seeking a powerful reset and introduction to psychedelic therapy. It includes one ceremony with full preparation and integration support. The 5-day retreat allows for deeper work, including two ceremonies, more extensive integration time, and additional healing modalities like yoga, meditation, and traditional Balinese treatments. For complex trauma or those seeking profound transformation, we recommend the 5-day or custom retreat options.

Integration applying insights from your experience into daily life, is where lasting transformation happens. Every guest receives: a post-retreat integration call with our specialist, written integration resources and practices, access to our private alumni community, and recommendations for ongoing support in your home location. We believe the retreat is just the beginning of your healing journey, not the end.
