Retreat centers
Centers that operate openly and publish who they are, where they operate, and under what legal framework. This list is short on purpose. Centers we could not confirm are currently operating are not shown.
A listing here is not an endorsement. Psychedelic retreats carry real medical and psychological risk, and the legal position varies by country and changes. Verify current legal status, medical screening practice, staff credentials and emergency procedures directly with the center before you book.
Centers
Beckley Retreats
Multiple Locations, Netherlands/Jamaica
Research-backed psychedelic wellness retreats combining psilocybin ceremonies with mindfulness practices, neuroscience education, and long-term integration support.
Beckley Retreats runs science informed psilocybin retreats, principally in Jamaica where psilocybin is legal, with a program structure that wraps the in person portion in several weeks of preparation and integration support. The organization traces its lineage to the Beckley research world and emphasizes screening, facilitation standards and post retreat follow up.
Relevance to this project: retreat populations are experienced observers, and structured retreat settings are one place standardized observation protocols could eventually run with proper consent and safety infrastructure.
Listed for research context, not as an endorsement. Verify current programs, pricing, screening and safety practices directly with the operator, and consult a clinician about contraindications before considering any retreat.
MycoMeditations
Treasure Beach, Jamaica
Psilocybin retreat in Jamaica featuring small-group ceremonial sessions, medical screening, psychological preparation, and post-retreat integration.
MycoMeditations runs group psilocybin retreats in Treasure Beach, Jamaica, and is one of the longer established operators in the legal Jamaican retreat space. Programs are built around facilitated dosing sessions with preparation and integration support across the week.
Relevance to this project: experienced retreat participants are a natural population for structured phenomenology reporting, provided any research participation is consensual, screened and clearly separated from the commercial retreat itself.

Temple of the Way of Light
Iquitos, Peru
Traditional Shipibo ayahuasca retreat in the Peruvian Amazon offering 9-12 day immersive programs with indigenous healers and integration circles.
The Temple of the Way of Light is an ayahuasca healing center in the Amazon near Iquitos, Peru, working with Shipibo healers in multi day programs. It is among the most documented centers in the Peruvian ayahuasca world, with an emphasis on traditional practice, screening and integration.
Relevance to this project: ayahuasca phenomenology overlaps with DMT phenomenology, and cross tradition symbol reports are part of what a serious convergence catalogue eventually has to account for.
