I think on the low end maybe $5K - and that probably has you sharing a room (or at least a bathroom) with another guest - all the way up to like $20K for the "concierge" retreats at the fancier location. I'm sure for $7-8K you can have your own room at one of the nice sites. And this includes everything, including transpo on the island, food and post.

Plus airfare. Understandable, but that's steep.

I know. There are cheaper spots in Jamaica and in other countries - especially Mexico. However, you get what you pay for - way less professionally run. And I am personally unwilling to go to Mexico for almost anything, but certainly not to be incapacitated.

I’ve done DMT and I can’t imagine having that same experience for 4 hours + straight. DMT is a 10 minute out of body experience

It's somewhat similar but not really the same. Ayahuasca is much broader than DMT.

Yeah, no shite. I would prefer not to be decapitated by the cartel during my first psilocybin experience please.

I'm a little skeptical of lemontek's claims. I've actually taken to just dumping in water and drinking - and it seems the exact same. I have witnessed the same in others too.


In my experience below is true. Lemontek is more like a sprint versus a marathon. If I'm just taking a gram or two for fun I just eat it. If I'm looking to blast off, lemontek.

They have a couple in Georgia, but they don’t look fun. I don’t want to go hang around a bunch of people and have therapy sessions. I’d like to just do it and hang out in the woods with a couple people at most. Definitely not with strangers.

I thought I would also mention a non-substance, intense retreat: dark retreats. You might have heard about the place Aaron Rodgers went in Oregon (Sky Cave).

There's another, more reputable place in Guatemala: The Hermitage

The owner is a good and knowledgeable guy. The experience is definitely worth it. It's not overly expensive either.

This is the key. I think a lot of people are used to the trope of taking a psychedelic and wandering through the woods in awe. That is totally great and all, but it's not what's happening at retreats, largely.

Instead, it is inward looking. Often with blackout eyemask and earplugs/curated music.

Folks that have "been there done that" with psychedelics are often shocked when they find the inward experience is vastly different from their days of taking some acid and heading out to a Phish show.

We may need to send Nuss on one of these retreats now. Maybe Brian Kelly too while we’re at it.

Yep same, it’s legal in LA to buy liquid cultures and have it shipped to your door. One syringe 20-30 bucks, grain bag and set up with every thing you need for 1 full run is 150$ (i used northspore for the gear. My first harvest( 4 flushes) and filled 5 xxl mason jars full. I have had them for 2 years now and haven’t run out. Well worth the money and peace of mind of what im ingesting.
