Her sound journeys are grounded in both scientific research and traditional wisdom, merging ancient sonic practices with contemporary exploration.
You will also be supported by a psychedelic-informed psychotherapist across the full five-week journey, including on the retreat day itself.
The depth of the experience is shaped by the preparation before and the integration that follows. Over the 5 weeks we will explore the five-layered self. Multiple layers of your inner world (mind, emotions, patterns, identity, and deeper self.)
✔️ Across the three weeks of preparation, we work with breathwork, journalling, and embodied practices to help you build awareness, safety, and inner capacity before the retreat day.
Breathwork is used to gently regulate the nervous system and increase your ability to stay present with sensation and emotion.
Journalling is guided through the lens of Dr Gabor Mate’s Compassionate Inquiry, supporting you to meet subconscious patterns, protective strategies, and inner narratives with curiosity.
Embodiment practices help you listen to the intelligence of the body.
Together, these practices ensure you arrive at the medicine resourced, grounded, and connected to yourself. The preparation and integration sessions will be led by Kavita and our in-house psychedelic informed psychotherapist.
✔️ Coming together in circle - During the preparation weeks, we gather in circle, an honoured way to build trust, connection, and shared group energy. Circle allows participants to be seen and heard, creating safety, coherence, and a sense of collective support that deepens the work on the retreat day itself.
✔️ Online Opening & Closing Ceremonies — The journey begins the moment you choose to step in, and is consciously opened and closed with guided ritual and reflection.
✔️ Two weeks of integration - A spacious period to make sense of what has opened, supported by guided reflection, embodied practices, and ongoing care allowing the medicine to settle and integrate naturally.
What Is Set and Setting — and Why Does It Matter?
In medicine work, it’s widely understood that the medicine isn’t the whole story. What really shapes an experience is set and setting.
Set is what you bring with you: your mindset, emotional state, nervous system, beliefs, expectations, life context, and intentions. Setting is everything around you: the physical space, the people present, the level of trust, safety, and how well the experience is held. Together, set and setting strongly influence the quality and direction of a journey.
Researchers have been pointing to this for decades. Early on, Timothy Leary emphasised the role of mindset and environment. More recently, work by Roland Griffiths has shown that people tend to have more meaningful and positive outcomes when they feel prepared, safe, and supported. Robin Carhart-Harris has demonstrated that psychedelics increase openness and emotional sensitivity, which can be transformative, but also makes context especially important. And James Fadiman has long stressed that what happens before and after the experience matters just as much as the experience itself.
Despite this, preparation in many ceremonial contexts is often limited to dietary or lifestyle guidelines. Yet the medicine responds to the conditions it’s given. This is why we place such care on psychological preparation, relational safety, and integration…so whatever opens has somewhere safe to land.
