Truffle ceremony

The magic truffle ceremony

A truffle ceremony can have different names such as "psilocybin ceremony", "magic mushroom ceremony", "magic mushroom ceremony" or simply as a "plant medicine ceremony". In the Netherlands, we mainly call it the truffle ceremony because only the magic truffle, which contains psilocybin, is legal. During our truffle ceremonies, we offer you many extras so that you as a participant can experience the strong experience, insights and therapeutic effects of magic truffles. For example, with us you can use various additives or simply choose a higher dosage if possible. We customise the ceremony and preparation based on possibilities and personal wishes.

The effects of psilocybin truffles

Psilocybin is a psychoactive substance found in magic truffles. When converted to psilocin, it has several effects on the brain, including an increased sensation of connection with the environment, changes in perception and disruptions to the sense of time. Psilocin works by binding to serotonin receptor sites in the brain, specifically the 5-HT2A receptor. This leads to a change in stimulus processing and neurochemistry. These changes are mainly responsible for the euphoric and hallucinogenic effects. For a detailed explanation of how psilocybin works and what you can use it for, please read the following pages.

The extra support for Tripherapie

We offer more than just the truffle ceremony. In addition to the ceremony itself, we offer standard before and after care. Prior to the ceremony, each customer receives personal advice based on the intake and the customer's objectives. We also provide small assignments that may come in handy. Furthermore, the preparation can minimize any fear or uncertainty by improving neurochemistry with nutrition and/or supplements. After the ceremony, an integration conversation can be held to process the experience and integrate it into daily life. All in all, this is our approach:

Before the ceremony

Screening for safety based on the intake
Nutritional advice in preparation for the truffle ceremony
Supplement advice to improve neurochemistry
Video and reading suggestions that can come to life during the session

Psilohuasca, psiloflora or truffle ceremony

Free choice of ceremony

From June 2023, you can choose from each truffle ceremony psiloflora and vice versa. Psiloflora is comparable to psilohuasca, but with a softer MAOi (passion flower). As a customer you can therefore choose at the last minute whether you want to use psiloflora as an addition to your truffle ceremony. There are some additional contraindications for psiloflora, such as the use of SSRI and SNRI. We can assess whether psiloflora is suitable through the intake. The addition of the passion flower can make the effects of the truffles a little stronger and prolong them. Furthermore, the passion flower can create a more relaxed mindset, making the trip easier. More information about the psiloflora ceremony can be found via the link.

Tyramine-restricted diet

With psiloflora it is mandatory to adhere to a tyramine-restricted diet one week in advance to avoid the risk of side effects. Read the page below for more information

Truffle ceremony and theme

We attach a theme to every truffle ceremony. These themes can be freely interpreted and give an extra dimension to the psychedelic ceremony. During the week before the truffle ceremony, we will send video and/or reading suggestions related to the theme to each participant and serve as a kickstarter for the introductory conversation before we start the actual ceremony. You can freely use these themes for your personal goals and they provide space to connect with the other participants.

Location for the truffle ceremonies

We regularly use the Psychedelic Loft in Schiedam. The convenient location in South Holland, close to The Hague and Rotterdam, is easily accessible by public transport and free parking is available within walking distance.

We have specially decorated the Psychedelic loft with art and patterns so that it can give an extra dimension to the truffle ceremony. After the truffle ceremony, participants can choose to stay overnight at no additional cost. More information about this location can be found via the button below.

Reserve a spot

To ensure the safety and effectiveness of our truffle ceremony, it is mandatory for every participant to first complete the intake. The intake is a questionnaire in which we can assess your medical and psychological background and any medication use for safety. This allows us to determine whether the truffle ceremony is suitable for you and take extra precautions if necessary.

By completing the intake you give us a better idea of who you are and what you can expect from the truffle ceremony. We want to guarantee the quality of our services and tailor the experience as best as possible to your personal needs.

So before you can participate in a truffle ceremony or psiloflora ceremony, we ask you to first complete the intake. This is an important step in ensuring a safe, responsible and enjoyable experience.

Truffle ceremony experiences

We at 100% do our best to create a wonderful experience for every participant. We use our extensive experience in organizing individual and group sessions. We have now helped more than 2,000 customers and therefore have a reasonable idea of the various wishes. With this knowledge, we set up the truffle ceremonies in such a way that we can control the most important matters such as the correct dosage for each participant, enough guidance per participant and the possibility of some privacy during the ceremonies.

What our customers think of the truffle ceremonies and our other psychedelic sessions can be read in the reviews.

On July 4, I had a medium/high dose (or was it more of an extended medium?) in the Loft in Schiedam. Was my very first time with psychedelics. The loft is a beautiful location, both the interior and the surroundings.

During my trip, Mother Earth placed me in a boat that floated on a quiet river. Mother Earth sang the most beautiful songs. I felt safe and supported in a special way. This had special meaning for me, as I have always had a difficult relationship with my own mother. I had a lot of trouble with this in my youth and in my adult life, as the father of my own family. After this experience I immediately experienced a feeling that it is good, the way it is.

You felt that everything was thought of and that the tripsitters had a lot of experience. This immediately reassured me to go for the high dose trip and then experience a great dream. The reasons for my registration were mainly interest in the hallucinations and possible insights that would result from them. But certainly also a need for direction in my life, personal growth and letting go of bad habits.

Give yourself this experience. There was also a participant who had received this gift from a friend. Wow, what a gift. I will definitely participate in a follow-up session again. First let this experience sink in.

I can hardly overstate my gratitude to Marcel and Janneke, whose professionalism and kind support highly impressed me. Also impressive was the setting of the ceremony. Every single detail is carefully planned to create an amazing, meaningful experience.

For me, the trip did not mean that I was freed from that fear, but it did make me realize that we all have our own role and place in life and in that way I could see myself as equal to everyone.

It's easy to lose sight of your intentions and crumble under the weight of the great meaning that suddenly seems omnipresent. Sascha helped me understand the overwhelming experience at a time when I couldn't make sense of it myself. I found myself completely trusting her very early on and that allowed me to go deeper into the journey, give up control and completely surrender myself to the wisdom of the medicine.

. I had a very intense but valuable experience. I am glad that there was sufficient focus on necessary preparation in the preliminary process. This undoubtedly contributed to the depth of the experience itself. The experience itself was very emotional, partly because throughout my life I have mainly learned to show my emotions as little as possible, or even to ignore them completely when they were too intense. It feels like a first step in an exploration to be more open to my own feelings.

FAQ truffle ceremonies

How much does a truffle ceremony cost?

At Triptherapie, the truffle ceremonies cost 550 euros per participant. This price includes psychedelics, food, drinks and overnight accommodation.

How many participants is there maximum?

We have a maximum number of participants of only 6 people. We do this to give more space per person and with six participants there is also a group feeling. For 6 participants we also have two supervisors present. In our opinion, this is the best ratio.

How does a truffle ceremony work?

On the day of the truffle ceremony there are different phases such as arrival, setting intention, ingestion, introspection, coming down, sharing circle and integration.

How many grams of truffles at the ceremony?

In general we give doses between 15 and 75 grams of truffles. We can do this because the ratio of supervisors to participants is on the high side (2 to 6).

Can you eat during a truffle ceremony?

99% of participants do not feel like eating until approximately 6 hours after taking truffles. We provide healthy food as soon as the appetite returns and the body needs to be nourished.

How do you feel the day after the truffle ceremony?

About 75 percent of the participants feel tired after the day of the truffle ceremony. This has to do with the fact that some trips are intensive and that it is sometimes more difficult to fall asleep after using truffles. We recommend not scheduling any appointments the day after the ceremony.

How long does a truffle trip last?

Most people are under the influence of truffles for between 4 and 7 hours. Depending on the dosage and how the body works, it differs per person. However, the most intense effects last about 2-3 hours, what we call the peak experience. There is also an afterglow after the trip that can last for a few hours.

Can I drive after the ceremony?

On average, people can only drive again after 10-14 hours after ingesting truffles. However, we recommend that you only start driving when you notice that it has completely worn off. Our truffle ceremonies include overnight accommodation and you can wait until the remedy has fully worked off.
