ABOUT THE RETREAT
Agapé Love Transformative Retreat – Portugal (Sesimbra & Lisbon)
 Join us for a 10-day sacred journey of awakening and heart expansion in the enchanting landscapes of Sesimbra and Lisbon. The Agapé Love Transformative Retreat weaves together the sacred medicines of cacao and psilocybin, guiding you through four powerful ceremonies that open pathways of love, healing, and connection. Each day begins with a cacao ritual blessing, complemented by guided meditations, flower baths, and soulful integration practices. Together, we’ll explore the mystical beauty of Sintra, Cascais, and other sacred sites, immersing in nature’s wisdom and Portugal’s rich spiritual heritage. This retreat is an invitation to return home to yourself — to love, to truth, and to the divine essence within.
  Whether you're seeking clarity, healing, or a deeper connection with your spiritual path, this retreat in Portugal offers an unforgettable experience of transformation and renewal.
About Psilocybin Mushroom Medicine.
Â
Psilocybin, the sacred essence within the “teacher mushrooms,” is one of nature’s most profound allies for inner transformation and spiritual awakening.
Used in a spiritual tradition by ancient cultures across the world as a gateway to the divine, this medicine gently opens the veil between the seen and unseen, guiding us into direct communion with the wisdom of the Earth and the infinite intelligence of the heart.
In a hallowed and intentional setting, psilocybin can dissolve layers of conditioning and fear, offering deep emotional release, healing from trauma, and expanded states of love and unity.
Scientific studies now affirm what ancestral traditions have long known — that psilocybin supports neuroplasticity, reduces anxiety and depression, and renews our connection to life’s sacred flow.
Within the embrace of ceremony, this medicine becomes a mirror of truth and a catalyst for remembrance — reminding us of who we truly are: luminous beings of consciousness, interconnected, whole, and deeply loved.
The healing properties of psilocybin are known to bring balance, peace, and renewal, allowing participants to release blockages and embrace personal growth with compassion and understanding.
We will have 2 ceremonies in MacroDose and an exploration of MicroDosing.
About Cacao...
Cacao, often referred to as the "food of the gods," is a powerful sacred plant medicine with deep spiritual and healing properties. Used for centuries in indigenous rituals across Central and South America, cacao is revered for its heart-opening qualities and its ability to facilitate emotional healing and clarity.
Unlike other plant medicines, cacao is gentle yet deeply transformative, offering a unique experience of emotional release, increased creativity, and connection to the divine. The medicine works by stimulating the release of endorphins and serotonin, which enhance feelings of joy, love, and gratitude.
During ceremonies, cacao invites participants to engage with their heart space, fostering a profound sense of inner peace, compassion, and unity with others. It is a medicine of awakening, helping individuals connect more deeply with themselves and the world around them, while promoting healing on both physical and emotional levels.
When pure cacao is combined with your spiritual practice, you can expect accelerated Inner Awakening and creative guidance.
We will have 2 ceremonies, opening and closing and daily cacao blessing ritual.
An adorable little town and community
During our stay, we’ll explore the dramatic cliffs, golden beaches and lively streets of Sesimbra.
A picturesque fishing town set in a sheltered bay, Sesimbra was founded on the hilltop around a Moorish castle. Join us on a charming and mystical journey to Portugal's coastal mountains to revive your soul.
We will also be visiting Cascais and Sintra, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Graham Nelson-Zutter, RPC
Psychedelic Facilitator, Counsellor
Graham specializes in creating a safe, inclusive environment for participants to explore their healing and spiritual growth. His background in Existential Analysis and Internal Family Systems (IFS) enables him to offer personalized support during one-on-one integration sessions and group sharing circles. Graham also helps with retreat logistics and participant-focused coordination to ensure a supportive and nurturing retreat environment. Graham holds a Graduate Certificate in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy from Vancouver Island University.​
“I first encountered psychedelics through the dance and music communities. A vibrant rave culture emerged in Vancouver in the 1990's. Performers visited from distant lands creating special moments of movement, connection and gathering. It was in these spaces that I began to learn about acceptance and embracing what makes each of us unique. As a young queer man, witnessing the freedom of affection in this culture gave me the courage to be authentic, to be seen. “
​”While camping with loved ones, in the lush rainforests of coastal British Columbia, I was first initiated into the gift of deeper connection supported by plant medicines. Never before had I felt this connected with the world or my existence. It was with this special mind-set and beautiful natural setting that I first understood the gift these medicines hold to support the healing of myself and others.”
“​During my studies in Existential Analysis and Internal Family Systems, I realised that some of the most healing spiritual and noetic experiences I had experienced happened while supported by natural medicines. When I later discovered Michael Pollen's books "How to Change Your Mind" and "This Is Your Mind on Plants", I felt called to advocate for other forms of healing. The expanded awareness and neuroplasticity that psychedelics provide us are such great gifts on our journeys of healing and personal growth.”Â
