Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers about ceremony weekends, retreats, screening, preparation, and registration.
What is the first step before registering?
The first step is an introductory call. It is a practical opportunity to share your intentions, ask questions, learn about the flow of the gathering, and determine whether the process appears appropriate for you.
Read the screening process →Do I need previous ceremony or retreat experience?
No previous ceremony or retreat experience is required. Participants are asked to approach the experience with care, honesty, and a willingness to follow the preparation and screening process.
What does the confidential screening process include?
Screening includes a health questionnaire, discussion of current medications and supplements, mental-health history, previous experience, an introductory conversation, and a review of preparation and aftercare.
Learn about screening →Can I participate if I take medication or supplements?
Every prescription medicine, over-the-counter product, supplement, and substance must be disclosed during screening. Do not stop, start, taper, or change prescribed medication for a ceremony without guidance from the clinician who prescribes it.
Review preparation and medication guidance →How should I prepare?
Preparation includes reviewing dietary guidance, discussing medications with your clinician when needed, allowing time for rest and reflection, and following the instructions shared during screening.
Read the preparation guide →How do I register for a specific ceremony weekend?
After the introductory call and screening steps, visit the Ceremony Weekends page, select a date, and begin the application process for that gathering.
View ceremony weekends →What is the deposit and cancellation policy?
For two-day ceremony weekends, deposits become non-refundable 14 days before the gathering begins. For the six-day Spirit Vision retreat, deposits become non-refundable 28 days before the retreat begins. Please contact us before booking if you have questions about your reservation.
Read terms and conditions →What if the gathering is not an appropriate fit right now?
The aim of screening is to support safety and thoughtful decision-making. If participation appears to carry an elevated risk, the facilitators may recommend postponing attendance or seeking guidance from a qualified healthcare professional before applying again.
Is there support after a ceremony or retreat?
Preparation and integration are treated as important parts of the process. Participants receive guidance intended to help them reflect on and carry forward what they have learned.
