Meditation rigor
This is not a psilocybin retreat with some meditation—this is a meditation retreat combined with guided psilocybin experiences.
Meditation & Psilocybin Retreat
Leading the way in legal meditation and psilocybin retreats in the U.S. A six-day, all-inclusive retreat set in Oregon's beautiful Willamette Valley, including two guided psilocybin journeys woven into a contemplative meditation retreat.
Maximum number of participants:12
Apply nowThe combining of a silent retreat with a high dose psilocybin session … seems like a great idea. If human history bends in the direction it should, there will be retreat centers set up to do that sort of thing.
— Sam Harris
The program
This retreat embraces the programming and contemplative nature of a traditional meditation retreat, complemented by legal psilocybin experiences. Recent research highlights the powerful synergy between psychedelics and meditation, showing that their combination can enhance mental clarity, emotional healing, and personal growth. Psychedelics can deepen meditation practice, while meditation helps integrate psychedelic experiences and sustain their benefits.
Am I a fit for this program?
Odyssey's Meditation & Psilocybin Retreat is designed for individuals who have an existing meditation practice. Prior experience with psilocybin is helpful, but not required. Ideal candidates have spent time on silent retreat. This retreat is not intended for those specifically looking to treat depression or address other mental health challenges.

What Our Clients Say
Odyssey is a great place for someone hesitant about psilocybin. The environment and staff are welcoming and I really felt cared for. It felt like a very safe, controlled environment for someone that is interested in experiencing the healing power of psilocybin.
It was more than a retreat. It was a sanctuary for the soul. All three facilitators were approachable, professional, and made it such a warm and comfortable environment which is key when being so vulnerable. I liked that there was preparation leading up to the retreat where you got to meet the facilitators and participants on Zoom—not once but twice. I also enjoyed all the additional activities of hiking, yoga, poetry, and meditation, and I appreciate the post-integration meetings as well to feel fully supported.
I feel like Odyssey is the only way to do this experience. It's 5-star, professional, and safe. I thought I wouldn't like the group, but it turned out to be one of the most important things about my journey. The accommodations were lovely. The facilitators were amazing. The journey was very professionally managed and I appreciated the integration days that followed.
