Psilocybin Therapy

"Flesh of the Gods"

At El Nido, Marc is a trained facilitator and has much experience in the therapeutic approach of working with Psilocybin in 1on1 containers. These containers combine elements of clinical safety, knowledge, and support, with the ancient wisdom of Shamanism and energy work.

The Aztecs referred to the mushroom as Teonanácatl, or the “flesh of the Gods.”

The experience is split into 3 parts.

1. Guided Inner Exploration

The first part is the inward and introspective journey. The participant will have an eye mask, headphones, and be in a comfortable bed. This will be a light, safe, positive environment. Curated medicinal playlists will be utilized to softly guide and enhance the journey to within.

2. Connection and Wisdom

The second part will consist of a walk in nature, connecting with the wisdom of the body and the natural world.

3. Personal Reflection

The third part will be 1on1 integration, with talk therapy, somatic therapy, and journaling to help ground the experience.

In a Psilocybin 1on1 Ceremony, unconscious psychological patterns can emerge, resulting in profound insights into your life. A Psilocybin ceremony is capable of enhancing your connection with both the spiritual elements of life, as well as the physical.

Memories can be re-experienced and emotional wounds from the past can be processed. Deep joy in finding who you really are can processed and felt at the deepest levels of your being, creating novel neural pathways for these newfound feelings to stay with you for the rest of your life.

Benefits of Psilocybin 1on1 Therapy

Therapeutic Insights

Psilocybin, the active compound in magic mushrooms, has been shown to promote introspection and self-reflection. During a ceremony, individuals may gain new insights into their emotions, behaviors, and thought patterns, which can be valuable for personal growth and healing.

Reduced Anxiety and Depression

Research suggests that psilocybin may have antidepressant and anxiolytic effects. Some individuals report feeling a sense of peace, unity, and connectedness during a psilocybin ceremony, which can help alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Spiritual Growth

Psilocybin has long been used in various cultures for spiritual and religious purposes. Many people report profound mystical experiences, feelings of interconnectedness, and a sense of awe and gratitude during psilocybin ceremonies, which can enhance their spiritual development.

Boosted Creativity:

Some individuals find that psilocybin enhances their creativity and problem-solving abilities. The altered state of consciousness induced by psilocybin can lead to novel insights and perspectives, which can be particularly beneficial for artists, writers, and other creative professionals.

Emotional Healing

Psilocybin has the potential to help individuals process and release past traumas, fears, and emotional blockages. By confronting difficult emotions and experiences in a safe and supportive environment, participants may experience emotional catharsis and healing.

Enhanced Connection with Nature

Many people report feeling a deeper appreciation for nature and the environment after a psilocybin ceremony. The psychedelic experience can foster a sense of unity with the natural world and a heightened awareness of our interconnectedness with all living beings.
