Broadening your awareness with plant medicine

At Alkhemi, we offer guided plant medicine ceremonies using psychedelic truffles, honoring the sacredness of the medicine. These ceremonies are not a quick fix but a path to deep insight, helping you connect with your emotions, body, spiritual self, and the world around you.

The truffles can reveal patterns and themes in your life, opening the door to profound awareness and potential transformation. If requested, we provide coaching before and after the ceremony to help you prepare for and integrate the experience.

Join us for a transformative journey with care and respect for the process.

wHY A CEREMONY?

Everyone experiences a truffle ceremony in their own unique way. Depending on what is going on within you and your life, you gain more insight and guidance on these matters. The truffle shows you exactly what you need to see, feel, or do at this specific moment in your life. At Alkhemi, the ceremony is framed with an intake and integration process, to maximize the outcome of the journey. However, this does require commitment. Some benefits include:

  • Insight into specific life themes;

  • Processing of trauma and life events;

  • Connecting with your emotions;

  • Connecting with your life mission;

  • Deeper understanding of illness;

  • Experiencing being part of a greater whole.

HOW WE WORK

We organize intimate ceremonies with a maximum of six participants, allowing for a deep, personal experience within a close-knit group. There is a unique kind of magic that unfolds when like-minded individuals come together, creating a safe and respectful space where everyone can hold each other accountable.

While some may feel hesitant about joining a group of unfamiliar faces, it’s important to recognize that true courage lies in being vulnerable and open in these moments. Life itself is a group process, and the healing that happens in this collective setting is profound, reaching levels that can only be unlocked through shared connection.

If you want to deepen your experience, we offer one on one support at a reduced rate of €70 per one-hour session (up to two sessions with discount)

Liselotte
guides the ceremonies and prepares the delicious meals. From a young age, Liselotte has been fascinated by the Earth and all living things. Her endless "why" questions often drove her parents to despair, and driven by her deep curiosity about life, she began exploring Vipassana meditation, mushrooms, and other medicinal plants at an early age. She attended various courses and trainings, with Ayurveda, Chinese medicine, and the body's self-healing abilities as recurring themes. Through guided (plant) ceremonies, she broke through persistent patterns, including her struggle with bulimia. In 2021, she graduated as a shiatsu therapist and now runs a practice for shiatsu and body-oriented therapy in Amsterdam.
