Announcements and updates from Ceremonia.

A morning at a Ceremonia retreat.
NewsNovember 12, 2026

We rebuilt Ceremonia around one idea

Connection changes what becomes possible. After 60+ retreats and more than 400 alumni, we have a new look, a new home online, and a clearer way of saying why we exist.

Ceremonia

A nonprofit sanctuary in the Colorado Front Range, dedicated to the safe and ceremonial use of psilocybin. Psilocybin ceremonies are legal in Colorado as the spiritual ceremonies of a nonprofit church under the Natural Medicine Health Act, and as a church we also rely on the federal Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA).

Awaken is a spiritual practice of our church. It is not part of Colorado's regulated natural medicine program. Your contribution supports spiritual guidance, harm reduction support during ceremony, and retreat amenities. Plant medicine is never sold.
