Program of truffle ceremony for personal growth
What to expect.
A truffle ceremony is an inner journey and unique experience that can promote profound insights, personal growth and emotional healing. For many, it is a journey inward, connecting with our inner selves. In the process, they often find surprising answers to life’s questions.
But this transformative experience does not begin with the ceremony itself. The truffle ceremony program is essential to making the journey safe and valuable.
The program provides a clear structure, with attention to preparation and guidance (during the ceremony and support afterwards). Each component is carefully designed to provide a safe and respectful environment in which participants can fully focus on their process.
It is not just about the experience during the ceremony, but rather what happens before and after. Through this broader approach, the ceremony becomes not just an isolated event, but an integrated part of a larger transformational process.
Of course you want to know how the program of a truffle ceremony goes. We will tell you this in as much detail as possible. Still have questions? Then, of course, we will be happy to answer all your questions. For this you can contact us.
Reception and explanation
We start at the reception, at our branches throughout the Netherlands. We make ourselves comfortable and talk about what concerns you in everyday life. Then we start explaining about the truffles and the ceremony, the effects and the insights you can get.
Wearing white clothing during the truffle ceremony is desirable. Glasses, contact lenses and makeup must be taken off or removed during the ceremony. Nice socks are recommended to bring.
Preparation of the truffles
We continue the program with the truffles. We think it’s important that you really connect with the plant medicine. Therefore, you are going to do the preparation of the truffle tea yourself. Of course, we will tell you exactly what to do and weigh the truffles for you.
Beginning of the truffle ceremony
Prior to preparing the truffle tea, the ceremony leader cleanses you with Sali to remove all negative energy from you. After this, you will sit down and prepare the truffle tea as directed by the facilitator.
The ceremony leader asks about the intentions you have written for this ceremony. What is your goal, where do you want to go, what do you want to experience, experience or see. What stands in your way of having more happiness in your life?
After stating the intentions, the program follows with a short meditation and the ceremony leader opens the ceremony. Then it is time to drink the truffle tea after which you lie down on the bed. The ceremony leader gently turns on the music and the journey can begin. While lying on the bed, the first signs of the truffles’ effects soon become visible.
This is different for everyone. Patterns and colors shoot through your field of vision (with eyes open and closed), various feelings and emotions present themselves. Have faith because the journey is about to begin!
Program during the truffle ceremony
If you need assistance during the ceremony, an attendant is always available. Normally the ceremony attendants do not interfere with your process unless you are inconsolable or when you want to go to the bathroom. In fact, walking can still be a bit difficult.
During the ceremony, the ceremony leader writes down what happens in the room. This can be about a participant’s emotions, but also about energy, for example. Individual sessions involve writing a travel journal of your journey. You will be given this report to take home after the ceremony.
Program after the truffle ceremony
Each participant travels at her or his own pace. This also means that one participant finishes after two hours where another participant is still traveling after four hours. When the ceremony is at one of our locations, there will be a maximum of two participants who are likely to awaken from the journey at the same time.
Often there is only a half-hour difference in this. After participants awaken, we serve a light meal and some sweets and fruits. For this, you don’t even have to get off the bed. We talk about what you have seen and experienced on your journey.
If the group is larger than two people, the ceremony will be held at an outside location. In this case, the awakened participants will gently leave the ceremony room and get some food in the pantry.
Home again and now.....?
The entire ceremony from reception to departure takes between six and eight hours. When you’re ready to drive home again, you’re free to go provided you’re clear-headed again. After a few sandwiches and cups of soup, you feel fit again.
The half-life of psilocybin is three hours which means that after three hours only half of the starting dose is still present in your body. By eating some food, we speed up this half-life considerably so that you are able to go home again soon enough. However, we recommend taking a hotel. Do you prefer to be picked up? That, of course, is also possible.
Aftercare and coaching
What sets Truffle-ceremony.com apart is that we have written the Program for Transformation to support your process. Indeed, when you get home, you will find that “normal” life resumes very quickly.
This compromises the integration of the insights you gained during the truffle ceremony. If you don’t pay attention to these insights after the ceremony, they may even be lost.
To prevent this, we wrote this program consisting of exercises, three ceremonies and nine conversations with one of our therapists or psychologists.
