Guided journeys, held with care

Guatemala paid

Preparation, guided psilocybin support and post-session integration shape the women-focused retreats led by Heather Lee and Monica Ramunda. Their stated aim is to help guests feel supported as they approach a journey and make sense of it afterward, with trauma-informed care at the center of the approach. The program is described as women-only, with particular attention to personal insight and women’s mental health. Between sessions, the hospitality is grounded: regional chefs prepare farm-to-table meals with local ingredients, and dietary choices include vegan, vegetarian, pescetarian, organic, gluten-free, dairy-free and nut-free options. Guests can also make use of a pool, sauna, kitchen, coffee and tea, Wi-Fi and free parking. One important travel detail needs checking before you book: the address identifies Guatemala, while directions point to Louisville, Colorado. Confirm the actual venue, dates and local arrangements directly with the hosts.

Setting

If the retreat takes place in Louisville, Colorado, the setting is described as a quaint downtown area about six miles from Boulder. The address also identifies Guatemala, so confirm the venue before picturing the landscape or making travel plans.

The practice

The program centers on guided psilocybin journeys, framed by preparation beforehand and integration afterward. For newcomers, that means support is intended to extend beyond the session itself: guests prepare for the experience, receive guidance during it, then make space to reflect on what arose. The approach is described as trauma-informed; ask the hosts what preparation involves and what support is available.

A typical day

The daily rhythm varies by retreat rather than following a published timetable. Expect preparation or check-ins, a guided journey, time to rest, shared meals and space for integration to be part of the experience. Ask the hosts for the schedule for your dates, including session length and any arrival or departure requirements.

Accommodation

Lodging arrangements are unclear. Ask the hosts whether rooms are included, what the sleeping setup is, and whether guests should book elsewhere.

What to bring

Bring comfortable clothing for a guided journey and time to rest. If the retreat is in Guatemala, average temperatures are about 18.1°C; pack light layers, and bring rain protection for wetter months such as June, September and October.
