We wrapped up August with an incredible group and a return guest. August rains in Valley de Bravo in the late afternoons so the days were full of contrast. Beautiful sunny mornings and incredible thunderstorms in the late afternoons. Which brought us inside by the delightful fireplaces with hot tea and real conversation. It was incredible. Thank you everyone who attended this retreat!

Don’t miss this wonderful episode: Bill initially hesitated to attend Eleusinia retreat due to a past unsettling and scary psilocybin experience. A psychedelic journey that was unsupervised in a public location. Despite his apprehensions, he decided to accompany his wife, who he knew deeply desired, and needed a different professional experience herself. What ensued was nothing short of transformative. Bill not only had a profound personal experience but also witnessed remarkable healing. His wife’s vertigo and migraines which she had endured nonstop for the past 6.5 years were alleviated. This podcast was recorded 3 months after Bill and Shannen attended Eleusinia. In this episode we dive into long lasting unexpected results. Bill details the impact the retreat had on him personally, his wife’s health and quality of life, as well as the impact it left on their now 30 years plus marriage.

Eleusinia’s Founders Jessica and Jay. Without this dedicated couple, Eleusinia retreat would not be the amazing one of a kind program that it is. Sometimes a marriage is just a marriage. Rarely it can impacts the lives of hundreds. ❤️
