Private Couples Bufo & 5-MeO-DMT Retreat, Mexico
With Luke DeStefano and Alexa Iya Soro
Package Dates
A private Bufo alvarius and 5-MeO-DMT retreat for one couple at a time, at La Fuente, our adobe homestead above Valle de Bravo. One ceremony morning, a full integration day, and nothing else on the calendar.
Ceremonies use two forms of the medicine: the vaporized pure molecule (5-MeO-DMT) for gentler, more precise somatic work, and Bufo alvarius for medium to full release. There is no standard dose. The dose is talked through with each of you before the ceremony, and nobody goes further than they’ve agreed to.
You journey one at a time. While one of you sits with the medicine, the other can stay close and witness, if you both want that, or rest in the garden. Many couples find that being seen in that state, and seeing the person they love there, is part of the work.
Before you travel we have a free intro call, a medical review for each of you, and an online preparation call. The day after the ceremony is for integration: somatic work, the steam dome and cold plunge, and a session with Alexa, together, to begin bringing what you met into the life you share.
$1,500 for the two of you. This medicine isn’t for everyone: a history of psychosis, some heart conditions, and SSRIs, MAOIs or lithium are contraindications, and our intake will tell you honestly if it isn’t right for you. Please don’t book flights until your retreat is confirmed.
Sacred Counsel does not administer, supply or handle any controlled substances. Ceremonies are held by independent facilitators operating under local law; we hold the preparation, the container and the integration.
