Clinically guided healing immersions that create the conditions for lasting change.

Healing begins with the courage to look within.

When you've tried to push through, make sense of it, or carry it alone, it can be hard to know what comes next. Our weekend healing immersion offers a thoughtfully guided experience that combines ketamine-assisted therapy, somatic practices, breathwork, and acupuncture-inspired energy practices to support meaningful healing in a safe, compassionate environment.

Thoughtfully designed for those seeking something deeper.

Looking inward can feel vulnerable.You may wonder what you'll find, or whether you're ready to face the parts of yourself that have been carrying pain for so long.The beautiful thing is that you don't have to do it alone.We'll walk alongside you, creating a safe and compassionate space where you can explore your inner world with curiosity instead of judgment. You don't need to have it all figured out. You simply need to be willing to take the first step.

When the nervous system softens, new possibilities emerge.

It's hard to heal when your mind and body have been working overtime just to get through each day.When we begin to slow down, take a full breath, and feel a little more supported, something starts to shift. We become more open - to ourselves, to new perspectives, and to the possibility that healing doesn't have to feel like such a struggle.

Discover what's possible when healing is approached differently.

Healing isn't just something that happens in the mind.Sometimes our bodies have been holding onto stress, grief, fear, or old patterns long after we've understood them intellectually.This experience gently weaves together psychotherapy, somatic practices, breathwork, acupuncture-inspired rituals, and ketamine-assisted therapy to support healing as a whole person. Each part of the weekend is intentionally designed to help you feel more present, more connected, and more open to whatever is ready to unfold.

The Experience

Imagine spending an entire day with nowhere to be, nothing to achieve, and no one to take care of but yourself. From the moment you arrive, every detail has been thoughtfully designed to help you slow down, settle your nervous system, and gently turn inward.Can't make October?Our next Healing Immersion is planned for January 2027.If the October dates don't work for you, you're still welcome to complete the application or schedule a complimentary consultation and let us know you're interested in the January experience.

Your healing journey begins before retreat day - because we believe the way you enter an experience matters.Before we gather in person, we'll meet virtually for connection, preparation, and a guided somatic breathwork journey. Breath gives us a way to begin moving out of the thinking mind and into the body - to notice what we're carrying, build our capacity to stay present with what arises, and begin listening for an intention that feels meaningful rather than forced.Ketamine dosing day is in-person, and we continue that process of gently turning inward. Acupuncture and ear-seed practices invite you to notice where you may feel blocked, depleted, or in need of support, while creating another opportunity to connect your intention with the body.From there, you'll settle into your supported ketamine journey. In a comfortable zero-gravity chair, with an eye mask, immersive music, and our clinical team beside you, the medicine may help loosen some of the familiar ways of thinking and protecting that can make it difficult to see ourselves - and our possibilities - differently.This is why we've brought these practices together. Breathwork helps us arrive in the body. Acupuncture invites us to listen more deeply. Ketamine creates space to experience ourselves differently. Integration helps us carry what matters forward.Following the journey, we'll share a nourishing meal and gather for reflection and connection, beginning the important work of translating insight into something you can live.With only 8 - 10 women, there is space to be supported, witnessed, and connected - without losing the deeply personal nature of your own journey.

Frequently Asked Questions

It’s completely natural to have questions before stepping into an experience like this. Explore details about the immersion container, safety criteria, and what to expect.

Is this experience right for everyone?

While ketamine-assisted therapy can lead to profound growth, it is a clinical intervention that is not suitable for everyone. Absolute medical and psychological contraindications include uncontrolled high blood pressure, active psychosis or schizophrenia spectrum disorders, unstable cardiovascular disease, untreated hyperthyroidism, and pregnancy or breastfeeding. We guide every candidate through a comprehensive screening process to ensure safe alignment with your physical and emotional history.

Is this safe?

Yes, your safety is our ultimate priority. The healing immersion takes place in a highly controlled, private, and compassionate clinical setting under careful supervision. Our leadership team consists of licensed mental health and medical experts specializing in complex trauma, somatics, and acupuncture, ensuring every stage of your journey is physically and emotionally supported.

What does the ketamine experience actually feel like?

At a clinical dosage, ketamine often creates a gentle, dreamlike state accompanied by mild dissociation or physical relaxation. Many describe a feeling of weightlessness or an objective "third-person perspective" that temporarily quietens racing thoughts, allowing you to process deeply held stressors or emotional blocks with curiosity rather than judgment.

Do I need previous therapy experience?

No prior experience with psychotherapy, somatic integration, or ketamine is required. You do not need to have everything figured out before stepping into the space. We meet you exactly where you are, gently walking you through preparation, pacing, and integration practices so you feel grounded throughout the entire container.

Why a group experience instead of one-on-one?

When our nervous systems soften together, unique possibilities for deep relational healing emerge. An intimate, small group environment (limited strictly to 8–10 women) allows you to feel deeply seen, supported, and connected. Witnessing and sharing the integration process with others reminds us that we do not have to carry our pain or walk the path to healing alone.

What's included in the cost?

The total investment covers the virtual prep and somatic breathwork session; the full-day, in-person immersion at the Head and Heart Institute, an intention-based acupuncture ritual, a nourishing group meal, and professionally guided integration processing - both in-person and virtually. Please note that the required medical evaluation screening and the physical prescription medicine fees are separate and handled independently from the main retreat program tuition.
