UNVEILING OUR EXCELLENCE IN PSYCHEDELIC RETREATS
Since 2017, AWAKEN THE MEDICINE WITHIN has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to excellence, reflected in the meticulous curation and oversight of each transformative experience. Under the guidance of our visionary founder, we have set the gold standard as one of the leading holistic retreat providers in the EU. Natasja Pelgrom, and a carefully selected team, our interdisciplinary group includes therapists, scientists, executive coaches, bodyworkers, and those deeply experienced in transpersonal and spiritual paths. We prioritize ethical use of substances and are trained in first aid, with medical advisory and clinical supervision.
Our approach integrates leadership development, neuroscience, and ancient traditions, providing a secure, nurturing environment that empowers individuals to access their inner wisdom. We also bring hospitality expertise and partner with regenerative boutique venues to enhance your journey.
Natasja’s extensive experience includes leading over 1000 ceremonies, setting standards in the evolving field of psychedelic care. At AWAKEN THE MEDICINE WITHIN, we honour the sacredness of these experiences and ensure a safe, legal, and holistic program tailored to your personal growth.
Whether you're new to self-discovery or seasoned in the path of awareness, our retreats welcome all. In 2025, we will launch our first Practitioner Practicum Retreat, “Guardians of Transformation,” a 9-day intensive.

GAIN A FRESH PERSPECTIVE
Are you seeking more in your life? Would you like to discover how to improve your lifestyle, mindset or relationships?
We prioritize a mental, physical, emotional, energetic safe, and expertly-held environment in nature, therefore our retreats also take place in a legal or decriminalized setting in the Dutch and Portuguese countryside. If you’re looking to understand yourself at a deeper level and make positive changes in your life, our transformational retreats can you do just that. In fact, past participants often tell us that their retreat changed their lives in a deeply profound way.
After a five-day stay at one of our personal growth retreats, you will be able to embrace yourself wholeheartedly with newfound resilience and clarity for your next steps in life. We create and facilitate life-changing processes that set you on the path to improving the health and well-being of your body, mind, heart, and spirit.
