Numinous Ways Reviews 15

Numinous Ways offers an exceptionally healing and transformative experience in an idyllic venue surrounded by nature. The location is absolutely stunning — the meditation deck and the light, airy ceremony space both have breathtaking views of the valleys and mountains, creating the perfect setting for deep reflection and connection.

I really appreciated how the group was divided into smaller pods, which made the experience feel intimate and personal. We were genuinely cared for and supported throughout the process. The preparation and integration activities — including dance, yoga, meditation, and breathwork — were thoughtfully designed and helped us ground and open up to the transformational journey with the plant medicine.

The option to begin with a lower introductory dose was also very reassuring, easing any anxieties before the more intense second ceremony. The facilitators held the space with incredible skill, compassion, and presence — their guidance and support were truly second to none.

Overall, it was a profoundly healing and life-changing experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend Numinous Ways to anyone seeking a safe, supportive, and deeply meaningful environment for personal transformation.

Can’t rate this retreat high enough, the accommodation was perfect, the food was incredible, the whole organisation of the 5 days from the Numinous’s ways team was impeccable. I felt very cared for and it will be an experience I will always remember.

I have previously used psychedelics but nothing could have prepared me for the breakthrough I experienced on this retreat. Set and setting are all important and the location, the program, the food and the facilitators all ensured that both were perfect. I have had the deepest,
most profound experience and made lifelong connections with the other participants. If you are unsure, and this is your first time with psychedelics you are in very safe hands. Take a deep breath and leap into the unknown; you will have an amazing, inspirational, indescribable journey that will rock your world and your courage will be rewarded in ways you cannot fathom.

This was my second retreat with Numinous Ways. The first was life changing so I went to Faro to celebrate and deepen my relationship with the natural world. The retreat was awesome and met all my expectations and intentions to dive deeper into my place in nature. Thank you everyone for holding space for us while time dissolved all around and I journeyed to a world I knew exists but had never experienced in such depth. I felt safe and lovingly supported by the facilitators, the retreat is held in such a beautiful environment and the food is delicious nourishment for body and soul.

These are a special bunch of compassionate, kind people who are committed to your safety, comfort (emotional and physical) and to helping you to process, release, explore and learn about yourself through the psychedelic experience. No matter what happens they are 100% there for you and their skill, openness and generosity brings everyone on the retreat together in deep connection and community. Friendships have been made forever, with ease and a great deal of love due to their facilitation and carefully thought out programme.
The food was divine, the setting superb, the experience wonderful - and I was an absolute first timer to psychedelics. Preparation and aftercare were excellent. In short, NM are 10/10 and I can't recommend them enough!

I attended a 6 day retreat, and I am incredibly grateful to have been able to do it with Numinous ways, this is because of the high level professional expertise across different disciplines and the level of high level of care given be each of the team members (from the food, accommodation, one to one and group support, integration activities and support). The holistic approach to care
created just the right environment for the retreat, a deep sense of safety and for the potential for transformational change to begin! I highly recommend.
Another point to make is that this retreat is inclusive and offers comparatively economic prices and bursaries. This meant my fellow participants were diverse and this is important to me - I was worried it retreats like these might only be for the privileged, Numinous Ways isn’t!

I attended the Netherlands retreat in February of 2024, having looked into psychadelics for a while. I had been hesitant about taking the plunge previously because I'd been concerned about whether the medicine would adversely affect me, both physiologically and psychologically. As soon as I discovered Numinous Ways though, I felt comforted by the way they describe the experience on their website and decided to make contact. From the first response, I was immediately impressed not just by the professionalism but by the gentleness and compassion that everyone at Numinous conveyed - we talked about what I wanted to get out of the experience and all emphasis through these conversations was on my needs and making sure - mutually - that the retreat was right for me. After these discussions I felt sure I would be in good hands with Numinous Ways. I wasn't wrong. The retreat itself was absolutely incredible. Truly transformative. The facilitators throughout were amazing - so deeply committed to the practice, so experienced and so supportive and nurturing. There were times when the medicine brought real darkness from within, yet throughout I was comforted and felt safe to explore these inner wounds, in a way I've never done before. I left with a lot of insight about myself, and it was not only because of "the trip", it was the whole experience - the setting, the facilitators, the other participants, the structure, the connection with nature, and last but not least the amazing food - as a vegan I was absolutely spoilt by their wonderful, beautiful chef. I feel like I'm at the start of my psychadelic journey, and I can't imagine continuing that journey with anyone other than Numinous Ways. They're amazing, and I can't wait to return.

I went along for a 6 day retreat in Eindhoven, Netherlands with Christoph, Danni and Sam and it was a life changing experience. I made some great friends there, challenged myself and worked through some old stuff. I should have done it years ago. If you're thinking about doing a psilocybin retreat, I recommend considering Numinous Ways. You'll be in safe hands and they create a great space for healing with a stronger focus on integration than I saw elsewhere, when considering my options. Do it, you won't regret it.

My experience with Numinous Ways was beautifully life-changing and transformative. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience and the loving team to everyone.
Before the retreat, the team ensured everything was taken care of logistically and they were always available and open to answering questions and ensuring that we would be heading off to the retreat feeling safe and ready.
The retreat itself was the most significant time of my life. The unmatched dedication of the team to help in our healing/growth along with their deeply loving and caring nature allowed me to process and heal so much more than I could have ever imagined. I feel reborn, I finally feel like myself again, at peace and whole. I really couldn’t have reached this point without Numinous Ways. The activities (e.g. meditation and free dance) were carefully crafted to help us along our journeys and complimented the ceremonies beautifully. The highly experienced, professional and loving facilitators are like no other, so much so that I would only go on future retreats with them. Their genuine care about our journeys and healing and their unmatched knowledge and guidance is heartwarming, providing a safe and loving space for true transformation. They even provided incredible aftercare post-retreat, making me feel heard and so incredibly looked after. Whether you’re just looking to explore, or you’ve got a specific challenge you’d like to work through in mind, I truly could not recommend Numinous Ways enough.

Under the careful guidance of Numinous Ways' knowledgeable guides, I felt secure and supported throughout my psychedelic journey, fostering deep self-reflection and insight. The attention to detail and comfort at every stage of the retreat reflected Numinous Ways' commitment to ensuring a nurturing and stimulating atmosphere for self-discovery. This retreat allowed me to explore the depths of my consciousness, promoting inner healing and fostering healthier relationships with myself and others. I highly recommend Numinous Ways to anyone seeking a thoughtful, safe, and transformative approach to psychedelic exploration, rooted in values of safety, respect, and client care.

The retreat has totally exceeded my expectations. The setting was amazing. Safe comfortable rooms, delicious meals, good balance of activities and down time.
The facilitators were incredible. Their knowledge, expertise and kindness made me feel so safe and so looked after at all times.
Everyone in the group was kind, inspiring and respectful.
I was nervous when embarking on this journey but I came back feeling very peaceful, worthy and energised.

Most amazingly I have overcome something that I had been fighting for 10+ years! I am mind-blown and so grateful.

I totally encourage anyone wanting or needing a change in their life to reach out to Numinous Ways. They have been incredible.

My recent retreat experience with Numinous Ways was high amongst the BEST of my life! A mind-blowing, incredible and healing week in Portugal with a wonderful group of humble, mindful, courageous, discerning folk from all over the world. The professional team are warm & welcoming, highly capable, inspiring, incredibly caring, hard working, and dedicated to enabling deeply meaningful and profound experiences. I wholeheartedly recommend them for your first psychedelic therapeutic retreat, or to develop further if you are a seasoned psychonaut. You will be treated carefully and held safely by some very special souls.

I recently attended a retreat in Portugal, and the experience was truly transformative. The setting, coupled with knowledgeable guides, created a perfect environment for self-discovery. The workshops were insightful, and the overall atmosphere was welcoming. I highly recommend it for those seeking personal growth or looking to overcome hurdles in their life. A big thank you to everyone involved!

Professional team, caring people, great attention to details and plan as much as allowing you to feel freedom and actual holiday vibes.
