About the Retreat:EARTH MEDICINE
come into being
Our psychedelic-assisted psilocybin retreats are seeded in deep ecology to ignite healing, belonging, awe and connection.
This is a process of emerging, surrendering and re-membering… where your true essence is enlivened and nourished.
Whether there is a yearning inside you for more than what has been ‘prescribed’, a curiosity edging you closer to the mystery, patterns and layers mulching your authenticity, or whether you simply long to sit in circle with real reciprocal community, then you have arrived. Welcome.
“This was a powerful and transformative journey which took me to the unknown shoreside of my inner self. It felt like embodying a new flesh, taming new sensations, embracing new forms on a constant discovery or rediscovery of scents and visions, as if the world was unveiling itself for the first time before my eyes. A metamorphosis full of promises, tears, laughs, smiles and an utter rage for life that will remain etched in my heart and flesh for eternity.”
— Elisa Henny
"This experience has been life changing for me in so many ways, I have a new found acceptance, peace and connection to nature and myself that I didn't think was possible. This continues to evolve after returning home. Roni, Andrew, Lilia, and Hanna have the most beautiful voices, it was such a treat to hear ancient medicine music from the soul, oh how I miss it. Perhaps a Rooted Healing recording session could be on the cards?! Rooted Healing are a truly special, humble, passionate collective of experts who create magic. They really do make you feel safe, held and completely at ease. This is reflected in the family community that was quickly created, the honesty, vulnerability and insights and breakthroughs we all had. If you are considering doing any kind of retreat, I can't recommend Roni and her team highly enough. Thank you for all your hard work, love, expertise and passion and for being such wonderful beings. I feel truly blessed to have had this experience with you."
— Laura Hodge
“The time I spent with my new Rooted Healing family was a profoundly nourishing gift that moved in so many delicate and magical ways. The enchanted land that held us combined with the love, care, warmth and creativity of the team, made for the safest space in which to bond and soften down among the wonderful crew that were gathered there. I found that balances were struck with great intuition; each day contained so much that was soft and loving and provided a gentle invitation to meet our edges. With the trust and tenderness that evolved between us it was possible to laugh, cry, play, express, create and share without shame or judgement. Somehow each day felt rich with activity yet beautifully spacious. My connection to the world around me has been invigorated. A profound thank you.”

Our Approach
Our nature-led psilocybin retreats offer emergent insight into who you are in this moment and how you can shape your reality by weaving yourself into deeper intimacy with life.
Transformational ceremonies are woven within a grounded programme of somatic and transpersonal psychology, deep ecology, regenerative life-ways and homegrown nutrient dense nourishment amongst rare ancient coastal forest on 130 hectares of community tended wilderness and permaculture life in Portugal (we previously ran our retreats in the Netherlands and prior, in Mexico).
We are a multidisciplinary team of healing arts professionals with both traditional animistic (shamanic) understanding of ceremonial and ritualistic work, along with psychological expertise. Our approach ensures that you are equipped with tools and practices for your ongoing integrative healing. We understand that psychedelics are one of many facets required for life-lasting healing and growth.
We carry the medicine of live ceremonial songs and sounds as a key ingredient to holding transformational ceremonies. You can expect beautiful, organic immersive soundscapes as you delve into the depths of consciousness.
The wisdom of nature and place guides our programmes and core philosophy. We see psilocybin as a catalyst for personal, social and ecological change, which is why we marry this work with regenerative living, where you can taste the beauty of life in balance.
We take great care in the intake process, as well as providing a thorough preparation and integration programme before and after the immersion. We also cultivate long-lasting community and peer to peer support.
We appreciate the leap of faith into an experience like this takes and are here to support you with your decision making process, with awareness and integrity around the acknowledgement that this approach is not for everyone.
Description of Services:“This week was one of the most transformational times of my life. I feel lighter, more expressive and more receptive to love. My mental and emotional states are simply changed. Everyone who organized or partnered with the retreat is the real deal. I knew none of these people beforehand, but feel like I left with a new family.”
— Jeff Pratt
Why Psilocybin?
Abundant in its nature, psilocybin exists all over the world making it an embedded thread within our collective ancestral heritage. Research reveals it to be one of the safest and most promising non-addictive psychedelics (entheogen), proving to support long-term neurogenesis, which is the formation of new neuronal cells in the brain.
With evidence suggesting its ritualistic use as early as 9,000 years ago, it has been shown to aid in healing multiple physical, emotional, mental and spiritually rooted health conditions. Science is also recognising its capacity to increase creativity, deepen nature connectedness and even reshape our relationship with death.
We see psilocybin as a catalyst for personal, collective and ecological change, showing us how to interrelate with compassion, creativity, intuition and curiosity.

Within Ceremony
We, as human beings upon this earth, have sat in ceremony since time immemorial. It is our birthright to cultivate time together to connect with our shared humanity and our relational dance within the web of existence. Ceremony offers us a healing containment to delve into the depths of our heart’s questions, sorrows, joys and dreams.
Ceremony brings us back into a state of belonging, which balms the losses of the modern era. It is an alchemy of intention, song, prayer and elemental relationship, through which our personal and collective voices of longing and creativity are extended to the unseen dimensions of life, beyond our conscious minds and into the realms of nature and spirit. This act is indigenous to the psyche, invoking a form of ‘direct knowing’, which is often ineffable but experienced through the fabric of our being.
Our Program
Our time together has been carefully curated over many years of weaving this offering into the world. Each day’s rhythms are rooted within spacious moments to nourish and digest the deep work that brings us together. Delicious home-grown nutritious meals will be served throughout.

Overview of Experience:Go to rootedhealing.org/earth-medicine for a thorough overview of your experience with us.
Transformational psilocybin ceremonies are woven within a grounded programme of somatic and transpersonal psychology, deep ecology, regenerative life-ways and homegrown nutrient dense nourishment amongst rare ancient coastal forest on 130 hectares of community tended wilderness.
"The Rooted Healing team craft their experiences with a level of care, cohesion and wisdom well beyond their years. Like a bottle of precious artisan wine, this will get even better with age and attract awards and accolades . My prediction is that in this coming decade of earth medicine (psychedelic-assisted) interventions and nature connection immersions, they will set a new benchmark. The question which will define one's experience will simply be: "Were you facilitated by Rooted Healing or not?" - Matt Zylstra (leading nature-connection researcher + guide)
We welcome you to a regenerative project that re-connects humans to nature...
Tending a regenerative eco off-grid farm and co-living space based in the coastal natural park in South Western Portugal, this is a unique and special opportunity to truly marry the healing of inner and outer landscapes. This predominantly educational project creates hope for future generations, to show what practical possibilities are out there in terms of reversing soil erosion and implementing land restoration, eco construction, passion based learning, local food security and bioregional life-ways.
With nutritious nourishment straight from our permaculture market garden...
We grow organic vegetables and fruit in our terrace gardens and food forest. We also keep sheep for an animal and land management practice that mimics nature to benefit both grazers and biodiversity, improving water and mineral cycles. Our plates will be a celebration of true regenerative life-ways, including an abundance of home-grown and home-produced plants, meat (mutton), butter and cheese. We will celebrate our final feast with local fresh fish from the market (V and GF options too).
Nearby, following a river immersed in the etherial bell chorus of goats, there is a canyon…
A 15 minute drive takes us to a special, hidden and treasured place. There is a potent charm to this canyon, an ancient memory that awakens through a baptism-esque bath in the healing waters followed by a warm embrace of ancestral rock. We will spend much of the day here, nestled in the canyon’s embrace, picnicking together in the shade of the trees.
Our maximum capacity is 14 participants. You can book additional days either side of the retreat in your chosen accommodation for an extra reasonable fee (we recomend this for additional time to adjust and integrate).
The airport shuttle is included and takes 2 hours door to door. Arrival to the retreat is at 4pm. The departing shuttle is at 12pm on the final day.
"I feel so full of wonder, gratitude and inspiration after the incredible body-soul nourishment I received with Earth Medicine. The week so perfectly curated, the craftsmanship that went into the whole journey ensured the group was a safe container for pure magic to unfold. I loved how the retreat weaved playfulness with sacredness. The effects have been both subtle and profound. The connection I have been fostering to nature and the present moment have both become much more vivid, still deepening to an even more fulfilling place than I ever imagined was possible. I feel that both my sweet inner child and wise ancient self are now known and integrating within me. The week offered medicine in so many ways - from the food, the land, the family we created as a group, the sense of belonging, the moving ceremonies, the reverence for nature, the deep rest, the heart-songs, all climaxing with the magical medicine itself. I’ve received healing on every possible level of my psyche and I feel the ripples to such far-reaching places. There are so many moments from the week that have crystallised in my memory to cherish always. Thank you so much to the beautiful souls that held the container of this magic for us. It was true alchemy." - Brighitta Moser-Clark

The Earth Medicine retreat that I attended was incredibly profound and enriching. I was expecting the focus of the week to be the mushroom experience and hoped this is where the connection and healing would come from. There was so much more to it than that. The combination of the skill, passion and experience of the facilitators, the incredible beauty of the venue, and the group of people that were brought together was pure alchemy.
It was a joy to be a part of the group of people that Veronica gathered. Everyone was there for a particular reason with work to do and it struck me that there was almost no expression of ego amongst us. Through the expertly curated program of lessons, movement, incredible food, workshops and group sharing it was astonishing how quickly everyone felt completely safe and able to show real vulnerability to a group of recent strangers. By the time the first ceremony took place I felt completely decompressed, free from anxiety and able to enter the psychedelic space without fear.
My experiences were both challenging and joyful. Whilst I can’t say that I found complete resolution to all of the intentions that I took with me, the Rooted Healing family absolutely initiated my healing journey. I was shown what the path to a happier and healthier life looks like and some deep insight in how to navigate it.
However one of my intentions was to look at addictive patterns that I have. In ceremony I had a profound realisation about the state of my health. It gave me a much needed insight into the negative effect on myself and the people I need to support. A tough but necessary lesson. In the eight weeks since the retreat I haven’t touched nicotine, alcohol or processed sugar. For this I am truly grateful.
This was indeed my 1st meeting with psycedelic and, my word, was it amazing! The facilitators (Roki, Andrew, Lilja and Hanna) at Rooted Healing couldn’t have done a better job at organising such a heart felt, wonderfully nourishing retreat for us. We spent the week connecting with the beautiful Land where we had ceremonies, sweat lodge and various workshops. During free time we could access the toasty wood fire sauna followed by a cold plunge in the lake ever so refreshing. Hanna made delicious, healthy meals with a lot of love and attention. The parts workshop really called out to me and the psychologist Lilja helped me make sense of something I’d been grappling with for years! Almost everything at the retreat was a 1st experience for me therefore overwhelming but in a good way – I never thought I’d set foot in a cold lake but I ended up sitting in it for over 5 minutes!Thank you all so much for holding us closely in your hearts for the week and making a safe sharing space to encourage healing. The sense of community we had was special and I feel I’ve left there with another family. I imagine so many people have been helped with this one retreat alone and I pray your work continues onwards and upwards. If you have any reservation about booking this retreat, think again, it is profoundly life changing! I have a whole new perspective on my life now

What a beautifully crafted retreat, full of love and compassion designed so well to prepare us for the work with the medicine during the ceremonies. Everything was thought out and prepared in a delicate and authentic way from beginning to end and I felt safe, held and loved at all times. The space was held so magically by Ronnie and Andrew and the passion that went into every detail was remarkable. I would highly recommend this medicine retreat to anybody that wants to expand their consciousness, connect and become part of a family and remember why we are here and how to integrate all of this into everyday life. I felt and feel more grounded than I’ve ever been and am so grateful for the tools, knowledge and love that has and is still being received 🙏🏻

My experience with Rooted Healing was truly wonderful. The ceremonies, the additional workshops and sweat lodge, as well as the venue were profound. There was so much heart, care and attention put into absolutely everything, from the setting of the ceremonial space, the live sound and music, prayer and the utterly delicious food that was served all week (I could go on and on about how good the food was!).
This was my first Psychedelic experience, I was very nervous but instantly felt safe and held by the amazing facilitators who clearly hold a huge amount of knowledge, experience and wisdom working with this sacred plant medicine.
I should definitely mention the sandy lake and wood fired sauna that the retreat in the Netherlands had as this was another big part of my experience. Every day we would toast ourselves by the fire, followed by plunging into the cold lake water- wow, what an invigorating and nourishing feeling this was, being so connect to everyone and everything.
Thank you for all your hard work and dedication for providing a safe and sacred space to support and encourage people on their path to healing. I couldn’t recommend this enough to people who may be questioning whether to invest in this experience or not.
My Earth medicine retreat was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. Roni at Rooted Healing runs a robust preparation and post integration programme so I felt safe and excited right from the very beginning feeling in very safe hands.
The location was set in such beautiful nature surroundings with excellent facilities and Hanna’s food was so amazing.
Every stage of the retreat has been considered and integrated by passionate experts. Combining ancient traditions and ceremony, each component has been carefully crafted and lovingly delivered to be nourishing and restorative for the mind, body and soul, with a lot of intention, love and laughter.
This experience has been life changing for me in so many ways, I have a new found acceptance, peace and connection to nature and myself that I didnt think was possible. This continues to evolve after returning home.
Roni, Andrew, Lilia, and Hanna have the most beautiful voices, it was such a treat to hear ancient medicine music from the soul, oh how I miss it. Perhaps a Rooted Healing recording session could be on the cards?!

Thank you for all your hard work, love, expertise and passion and for being such wonderful beings. I feel truly blessed to have had this experience with you.
One of the best things I have done in my life!
Although i little nervous before, I imediatly felt in safe hands with Veronica, Andrew and Lilia, who i warmed to immediately. Every day was full with also space within it. I learned so much about my self through the workshops and ceremonies, and also through the others participants and their experiences.
I felt held, loved and safe. The knowledge of Veronica, Andrew and Lilia was outstanding. And oh! the food by Hanah was amazing!
Such a joy to be lovingly nourished in the mind body soul and stomach!
I will feel the benefits of this week for the rest of my life. I feel calmer and able to deal with ALL what life has to offer with a new found wisdom and courage.
I cant recommend this retreat and these people enough.
And i say that with a wam heart and a smile.
The Netherlands retreat was, for me, a truly magical experience, allowing me to delve deep and start an inner journey with a really lovely group of people – none of us wanted to leave.
As someone who has held space for people in different ways, It was a joy to have others do so for me: their constant availability to talk to all of us, collectively and individually, yoga and workshops, ceremonies conducted with a quiet reverence, calm and respect that put everyone at ease and beautiful singing from all the space holders, gently guiding us through our inner travels.
A lot of effort has gone into to the planning of these retreats by the Rooted Healing team. If you properly engage with the preparation and integration, it’s not just a 6 day retreat, you are taken on a journey lasting several weeks.
The facilitators gentle and accepting presence supported me in shedding painful stories and oh so many tears. Their passion in supporting the group on their healing journeys was clear for all to see and feel.
I have left the retreat feeling lighter, clearer, and more grateful for the life I live than I have done in years. The sense of connection and belonging I felt in the group was so powerful and the retreat provided me with so many personal insights that have already began to steer my life in a much more positive direction.
The retreat was quite simply magical, every element of the Rooted Healing retreat was interwoven with so much love, knowledge, and careful consideration that day by day I felt my heart open and my body rest. I will be forever grateful for the spiritual awakening I have experienced.
My 5 days retreat was a truly transformative experience. Set in a beautiful and wild surroundings, our daily workshop practices supported our healing process.
The ceremonies was conducted with exquisite attention to details and I felt held and supported all along. All the way through I was well nourished with amazing food and true connection with my fellow participants. Again, the experience was profoundly soothing and insightful. Thank you to Andrew, Ronni, Lilja, Inge, Hannah, Thigs and Diesel for their loving kindness and care.
Ps:, the value of this incredible work was very, very affordable for what we received.

I have just come back from 6 days with the Rooted Healing in the Netherlands experiencing the mushroom medicine for the first time in my life. Prior to the retreat I was quite worried and uncertain, but in the end I had fantastic time.
Everything checked out: the location was beautiful, the team very experienced, knowledgeable, kind and supportive, and the program very well crafted – all to support myself and 14 others on our journeys. Regardless where you are at – trying mushroom medicine for the first time, or a more experienced psychonaut – retreat with the Rooted Healing is a great choice, I cannot recommend it enough,
Thank you for all your efforts to put this together, this was a very special experience I will cherish for a long time.
Wow, it’s hard to put into words what a life changing experience I had with rooted healing. Think earthy, mystical, deep, ancestral, magical, euphoric even.
It connected me to the places that were lost within me and re-birthed so many needed realisations to step into the wild powerful and embodied woman I am!
Rooted healing has only the best facilitators and I can’t not recommend this incredible hub of healing enough.
I am so thankful and already eyeing up their next events. Feels like a real family is forming. Thank you! Thank you!
I recently had the pleasure of attending a psylocibin retreat with Rooted Healing, and I must say, it was one of the best investments I have ever made in myself. Admittedly, a psylocibin retreat is not a cheap undertaking, but the experience with RH is worth every penny and then some.
From the start, the facilitators guided us through the entire process with great expertise and care. The retreat was incredibly transformative and empowering, thanks in no small part to the tools and insights that they equipped us with, being always on hand to answer questions, offer guidance and provide a safe and supportive space for us to explore our inner worlds. Afterall, a psylocibin ceremony can be challenging, so I was very content to feel supported and safe.
In the end, I left the retreat feeling more connected to myself, to the other guests, and to life itself. It was a life-changing experience, and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking to deepen their understanding of themselves and the world around them.
Overall, I cannot speak highly enough of Rooted Healing. I would recommend their retreat to anyone who is interested in their personal growth and wellbeing.
Where to begin with a retreat that goes so deep on so many levels? Let’s pretend time is linear and start at the beginning…
Before going into the retreat, I had some reservations and concerns, but all of those were put to rest by the amazing care and integrity of the team. As for the personal background that brought me to the retreat, I have struggled with anxiety for many years. I had heard about the potential benefits of psilocybin for mental health, and I decided to take the leap and attend the retreat. I am so glad that I did. I feel like I have gained a new sense of clarity and purpose, and I am much more at peace with myself and my past.
One of the standout features of the retreat was the somatic work. The facilitators were extremely knowledgeable and experienced in guiding us through various exercises that helped us to connect with our bodies and release tension and emotion that we may have been holding onto. This work was particularly helpful for me as I have struggled with chronic pain and stress in my body, and I felt like I was able to make some significant progress during the retreat, allowing my tissue to let go of emotion that had been stored for decades.
What really stood out to me was the level of integrity that was present throughout the entire retreat. The facilitators were clearly deeply committed to their work and to helping us navigate the psilocybin experience in a safe and supportive way. They were always available to answer questions, provide guidance, and offer a listening ear when needed. I felt completely held and supported throughout the entire process and still do now as it is always possible to get in touch afterwards. The level of care is outstanding.
Overall, I would give it a glowing 5 out of 5 stars. The facilitators were incredibly skilled and compassionate, and they created a safe and supportive environment that allowed for deep healing and transformation. I would highly recommend this retreat to anyone who is struggling with mental health issues or chronic pain or even anyone who is just interested in exploring the connection to yourself and nature as a whole in a ritualistic yet grounded atmosphere. It truly was a life-changing experience, and I am so grateful for the opportunity to have attended.
Wow. It’s hard to describe the magic that happens with Rooted Healing.
Their retreats are so carefully and lovingly and carefully curated that you feel so held, safe and inspired. The ceremonies are otherworldly and the music takes you on a journey for itself! The space holders are so honest, authentic and truly dedicated to their craft.
I left feeling connected to myself, the Earth and also so many other likeminded souls. We felt like one big family that was meant to be brought together.
I can’t express just how much healing and transformation the experience gave me, not just during the retreat itself, but ever since. Thank you Rooted Healing, I can’t wait to join you again!
My time with my new Rooted Healing family was honestly impossible to put words to. The ceremonies were profound, shifting, and mysteriously familiar. I love that they guide us with live music/ceremonial songs and sounds. I felt safe and held through this experience and recognise the deep integrity this team has with this work. I’ve attended 2 retreats with Rooted Healing now and hope to return in the future. If you are looking for an experience that will shape you and your life for the better, I highly recommend placing your trust in these wonderful people and these beautiful traditions. Thank you (all of you) for your hard work and dedication to this healing path.
