Sebastiaan – Mushroom Awakening Private Retreats

Mushroom Awakening offers private, high-impact psilocybin retreat programs in Costa Rica, created for high-performing professionals, partners and friends seeking clarity, balance, and authentic direction in life. Each journey is designed as a safe, deeply personal experience that fosters inner peace, emotional healing, self-realization and direction.

Sebastiaan is the founder and lead facilitator at Mushroom Awakening.

He has nearly two decades of corporate experience as a Business Consultant, well-acquainted with the pressure, fast pace, and high expectations of this world.

He has been intrigued with the workings of the psyche, emotions and human habits since childhood. He has over ten years of practice as a certified Rebalancing® bodywork therapist in the Netherlands, over 6 years facilitating psilocybin retreats and 1,5 years of work as a volunteer at 113 Suicide Prevention Crisis Line helping individuals on the telephone. 

During the retreats, he combines bodywork with the amazing workings of the psilocybin mushroom. Combining these two modalities has lead to a powerful transformational program for those who are ready for their next chapter and wish to live a life of joy, inspiration, inner peace and alignment with purpose. Sebastiaan’s approach is direct, truthful, compassionate, and down-to-earth. He guides clients in integrating inner peace into the fast pace of everyday life, so they can navigate success with clarity, calm and heart felt purpose.

Together with Anais, who provides integration support and nourishing, chef-prepared meals, Mushroom Awakening delivers a fully tailored, discreet retreat experience. Their mission is to offer a safe and supportive space for genuine transformation, empowering individuals to live with authenticity, inner strength, and love.
