UNLOCK
PSYCHEDELIC RETREATS
If this is your first journey with psychedelics, it is normal to experience some doubts & fears. Even those who've undertaken multiple journeys still experience some healthy anticipation anxiety. A group setting creates a powerful dynamic that is therapeutic by itself. Going on a journey with others that are all prepared to face what they need to face, provides a feeling of trust & safety. We nourish this dynamic, by focusing on care, respect and patience. If you would prefer to have your experience alone or together with your partner, a friend or a group of friends, just reach out to info@eremia.org and we'll see if we can accommodate to your wishes.

ONE STEP AT A TIME
STEP I
BOOK YOUR INTAKE/PREPARATION AND YOUR INTEGRATION
At Eremia we emphasize the importance of the therapeutical framework that surrounds your psychedelic experience. For this reason, you must book your intake and integration talk before you can register for one of our UNLOCK retreats. After your intake, you are welcome to book as many preparation talks as you feel you need.
Of course, you may also book your intake with us without registering for one of our retreats in case you would first like to gain some more information about us and our UNLOCK retreats.
During the intake (and any preparation talks), we dive deeper into what brings you to Eremia. We explore your motivations, expectations & fears with the purpose of creating clear and useful intentions that you can further explore as you prepare for your psychedelic experience.
Your integration process is as important as the psychedelic experience itself. Therefore, besides your intake, we also require you to book your integration talk with us before registering to one of our retreats. We recommend you to book your integration between 1 and 2 weeks after the weekend of the retreat.
The intake, preparation and integration talks are not included in the price. Your intake does not guarantee your participation, and is non-refundable! You will receive a separate invoice after the intake itself.
STEP II
Book the retreat in which you wish to participate. With Eremia we use pricing scales to be able to make our retreats as accessible as possible.
-
HELP OUT : € 1000,- (€ 1210,- incl. VAT).
By choosing this option, you’re helping us give access to someone who would otherwise not be able to participate. A company invoice is also available for this option.
-
COMPANY INVOICE : € 800,- (€ 968 incl VAT).
If you're able to deduct your participation as a working cost, you will also help us give access to those who would otherwise not be able to participate. You can also choose the HELP OUT option
-
STANDARD PRICE : € 700,- (€ 847incl. VAT).
This the minimum we need to run the retreat (location, food, facilitators,…).
-
LOW INCOME : € 400,- (€ 484 incl. VAT).
This option is reserved for those who are on welfare or who have a minimum wage. We will be running at a loss, therefore spots for this option are limited per retreat.
After booking your retreat, you will receive the invoice in your email. Your spot is considered reserved, once we have received your payment. If, after the intake, we decide that you cannot participate in the retreat you booked, you will immediately receive a full refund. Please also make sure to read our cancellation policy.
If you choose the the Low Income option, we will discuss if you are eligible for this option. In case that the Low Income option still isn't affordable to you, we will try to find something that works for you during your intake.
HOW TO PREPARE
Once we have received your payment, you will receive a preparation document that contains exercises and questions that will help you shape your intention. This email will also contain all information regarding location & other practicalities.
We advise you to reserve your spot as soon as possible. Spots are limited, and fill up quickly.
STEP III
AFTER THE RETREAT
INTEGRATION
TAKE YOUR TIME & CONNECT
Make sure to take a day off after the retreat to spend some time either alone in nature or with close friends and family. You will also receive a document to help you with the first steps towards integration. As mentioned in STEP I, we ask you to schedule an individual integration talk before registering for our retreats. Besides your individual talk, we also welcome you to participate in the RECONNECT gatherings we organize on a wonderful location in Brussegem where you get the chance to interact with other participants and continue your process.
