What to expect on an Odyssey Retreat

Contemplation
The serene environment of the weekend retreat provides the perfect opportunity for meaningful reflection and profound conversation.
Emotional Safety
Guided by skilled facilitators, participants open themselves to vulnerability and curiosity. Tears are not only welcomed but encouraged as part of the healing journey.
Intentionality
Our retreats are specifically designed for individuals navigating life’s challenges. While psychedelics may be used recreationally, very few attend our retreats with that intention, as our focus is on personal growth and healing.
Bonding
The intensity of shared experiences fosters deep connections among participants, creating a sense of community and understanding.

What Our clients say

[This experience was] painfully beautiful and the best thing I’ve ever done for myself! Perhaps the most beneficial treatment to help with my depression, anxiety, and personal growth. I’ve done nearly all mental health treatment modalities and would highly recommend this journey for individuals who feel “stuck”.

Joe - New Mexico, USA
Odyssey retreat participant, February 2026

Exceeded expectations! It gave me the opportunity to confront some issues in my past that I didn’t fully realize were holding me back. The environment and preparation work helped me to feel comfortable despite some nerves going into the session.

David - Virginia, USA
Odyssey private session client, December 2025

My women's retreat was among the most meaningful experiences of my life! The facilitators were all excellent. I loved that everything was taken care of, so I could focus on the experience.

Jennifer - Alaska, USA
Odyssey retreat participant, May 2026

The Odyssey team are caring professionals who take very seriously understanding and mastering both the scientific and human aspects of creating a powerful, transformative, and manageable experience for their clients. David, Jenn, Alex and Lynn were all excellent. I now consider them good friends. They take really good care of you and I had many deep conversations with them. That goes from the preparation, to the accommodations, to the meals, to the integration practices. I was very impressed.

James - Texas, USA
Odyssey retreat participant, January 2025

I experienced something outside myself - I was filled with awe over the universal connections among humanity. I do not fear death. My ego dissolved. A meaningful experience that helped me deepen my meditation practices. A valuable [experience] for individuals who desire growth and development, by coming to the retreat with openness and curiosity. Odyssey is a highly functioning organization that deeply cares about its mission and service. The facilitators were all exceptional, highly professional, expert meditators, extremely articulate, caring, and beautiful human beings. And they are knowledgeable about the journey and its impact.
