The Transcendence Retreat is a sacred space for you to come home to yourself—a time to Re-discover, Re-connect, and Re-member the magnificent being you truly are.
For two days and two nights, you’ll be embraced by the breathtaking beauty of the Paardeberg Mountain range, nestled between the powerful peaks of Dragonridge and Sonkop in the heart of the Western Cape.
Guided with care by trained facilitators in all modalities, this retreat offers a transformative experience, fully catered with nourishing plant-based meals. Every moment is designed to nurture you on every level—physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
What makes this retreat different?
At the heart of The Transcendence Retreat is a deep commitment to your emotional and physical safety. We place great emphasis on creating a space where you feel fully supported and held, allowing you to surrender and embrace the journey.
Our approach goes beyond the retreat itself. We focus on both pre- and post-journey integration, ensuring that the transformation you experience continues to unfold long after the retreat ends. You’ll be guided every step of the way, with continued support to help anchor the insights and shifts you receive, empowering you to live your life with greater authenticity and alignment.

Find out a bit more about who will be holding space for you during the retreat
Vanessa is a Sacred Ceremony Facilitator and a Certified Psychedelic Integration Coach.
She is passionate about being in service to others and to hold space for those who have the courage to step into "doing the work". Her personal journey, from addiction and trauma, through to recovery, has laid the foundation for her to guide others compassionately on their path of recovery.
Working with plant medicines, as well as a variety of energy modalities, creates the platform for her to help others to RE-member who they are and to RE-connect with their souls.
Svenja is an Alchemist of Change and a devoted mother of two wonderful children. She brings a wealth of powerful and beautiful practices into her work.
She is a certified Coach and Trainer of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), a Certified Shamanic Practitioner, and the creator of the profoundly healing modality Tahira-na. Additionally, she is a Nia teacher, a cacao ceremony facilitator, and a guide for those navigating transformation.
Svenja's heart swells with joy when she sees others stepping into their authentic power and healing. Her personal transformation over the past 14 years has inspired her to create a safe space for others to undergo similar journeys. She seamlessly integrates her project management expertise with a deep understanding of being truly present in the body, creating a harmonious dance of alchemy and change.
Chris has always had a deep fascination with the healing that comes from food, music and movement. She has dedicated much of her adult life to intentionally connecting to and understanding how these vital aspects can effect and transform our experiences of life and self.
Chris started her journey with Ayurveda and other modalities almost 20 years ago and has actively lived a vegetarian lifestyle for more than 27 years. She draws her culinary wisdom and experience from her extensive travels to places that incorporate food as medicine into their healing practices. Her driving passion is to express through her love language of food: facilitating nourishment to the body, mind and soul.
Sacred Psilocybin Ceremonial experiences, that are medium to high dose, can catalyse deep transformation in how we relate to ourselves, others and the world around us. These sacred journeys are a powerful tool to help break negative cycles, gain insights into self-healing and unresolved traumas and deepen our spiritual awareness and connection with nature.
Allow your heart to open with newfound compassion towards yourself and others. Ceremonies are held sacredly, combined with ritual, movement, music, connection and purest intention.
