Frequently Asked Questions

Where is the service center?

We are approximately 30 minutes from the Portland airport in a beautiful 1920’s farmhouse with cozy appointed private rooms. The vibe is like being at home.

Why are psilocybin services so expensive and why is there so much paperwork to sign?

We are grateful that Oregonians have approved this service but please keep in mind that we
are working under the state regulatory framework. Psilocybin is still federally illega
l and there
are higher operating costs as a result. We believe that Psiloc
ybin can be transformative and
want to make sure this opportunity stays in safe hands. These regulations, which consist of
facilitator education, strict service center rules, significant paperwork for our clients, and costly
licensing, ensure that Oregon's model is built to last.

Will one session be enough?

It really depends on your intention and circumstances. Sometimes one powerful journey can push the reset button. But if you have a long ongoing issue, we recommend doing two or three sessions. It is often said that the first journey is about building a relationship with the mushrooms. Once you understand your relationship, it can be easier to go deeper and do more work. There is no limit to how far you can go, but it is usually best achieved incrementally. Someone on a spiritual track may continue to do journey work for the rest of their lives. Someone who is working on a specific issue may do one or two sessions and be done. Chances are, you won’t know how far, or deep, you want to go until you have done your first journey.


How do I pay for this?

Your payment to Mind trek covers the cost of the facilitator, including the preparation session,
sitting for the journey, and the integration session that follows your experience. It also covers
the cost of the room rental but it does not cover the cost of the psilocybin which must be paid
with cash at the service center the day of the journey session.

What do I do before my journey to prepare and what should I bring the day of?

The day before your journey we recommend self care; a walk in the woods, yoga, breathwork,
or just quiet contemplative time writing in a journal. The day of your trip we suggest wearing
comfortable clothes, eating a light breakfast and bringing a favorite snack and beverage to your
session.


What can I expect from the service center? 

Your session will take place in a private room furnished to feel like a home- cozy beds, clean
sheets, comfortable chairs, blankets, darkening curtains, eye shades, music, aromatherapy, light
snacks and beverages will be provided.


I’m worried past trauma will come up and I won’t have a productive time.

It might. But it doesn’t mean you will have an unproductive or unpleasant journey. Sometimes
the hardest sessions are the best. And it’s the very reason one would want a facilitator there by
your side for support.


Can I bring my friend to my session?

Given state guidelines, only a support person/ caregiver is allowed in the room with you. But in
general, unless you need physical help, we advise this is a time to go at it alone. If you need
support during your session, your facilitator is there as your guide.

Will I be able to meet my facilitator before my trip?

Yes! You will have a preparatory session before your journey where you can meet your guide
over video conference ( or in person if you desire). You will go through your paperwork and your
intentions for your journey. We look forward to meeting you.
