Retreat of Waterfalls, Medicinal Plants & Celtic Mythology

Somewhere deep in the wilderness near the base of mount Snowdon there is a path leading to a world you’ve only dreamt of in fairytale. Surrounded by waterfalls, mountain ranges and wild nature, you will discover a real life Shire complete with hobbit holes, round houses, stone circles and exquisite Celtic design, arising from the land. 

This is the scene we welcome you into for 3 days and nights of exploration and cosmic connection and the creation of a community based on trust, love and acceptance. 

“My life will never be the same again. I feel like I've shed so many layers and been filled up with love and joy.” ★★★★★ Laura W

Over these 3 days we will explore the nature of the psyche and cosmos through the medicine of indigenous plants such as Marigold, Dandelion, dream medicines, blue lotus and Cacao; be reminded of the true power and magic of the land through Celtic Shamanism, vision quests, waterfall immersions, fire circles and deep nature connection, and experience the magick within our bones as we crack our hearts open with music medicine, heart opening mantra, play, releasing inner blockages and exploring living the more beautiful way that our hearts know is possible. 

Our intention for this weekend is that you would have dived deep within your soul and remembered your essence as a divine being; experienced life unfolding in its natural flow as you deepen into the rhythm of your heart’s calling; and cleared away any stagnation and trauma preventing you from living in true flow and connection with nature, your deepest self and the flow of life. 

“One of the best things I've ever done in my life. So grateful to have met so many like-minded souls that were also on their journeys in life. My heart is brimming with joy as I write this.” ★★★★★ Jonathan

“Transformative, life affirming, magical, I laughed, I cried, I loved, I went deep inside and I learned to accept love. It was one of the most profound weekends of my life and I'm so excited for the next one! Josh and Laura were absolutely flawless." Alex G ★★★★★

Your Facilitators

Laura has facilitated with Psychedelic Society since 2017. After a decade of working with shamanic plant medicine, she offers transformational spaces designed to explore the darker parts of our psyche in order to experience deeper love, expansion and liberation. Currently she is studying to be a doctor of the Amazonian Master Plants and lives part time in the Amazon Rainforest with an indigenous maestro. 

Over a decade ago, she travelled the Americas working in NGOs focusing on ecological sustainability before discovering the ancient keys to the psyche found in the plants of the rainforest. Experiencing a deeper sense of reality inspired the creation of transformative arts company Infinite Experience, who travelled the world with their interactive theatre piece designed to transcend separateness. She now holds workshops, ceremonies, retreats and 1-1 sessions designed to connect people to their deeper essence guided by her experience and years of training in healing modalities.
