In the booming era of the psychedelic renaissance, there are many options for undergoing a psychedelic experience, from ketamine clinics to MDMA assisted therapy, underground ceremonies, and of course one of the most popular methods is the retreat setting. For many, the multi-day container of a retreat allows them the proper space to undergo the type of work that can be expected from the psychedelic experience. One of the leaders in the retreat space has been Kaivalya Kollectiv’s “Tandava Retreats”, run by Founder, CEO, and 5-MeO-DMT facilitator Joel Brierre.
Joel Brierre has been a pioneer in the modern psychedelic movement, specifically in the realm of 5-MeO-DMT and the Bufo Alvarius toad. His unique approach of applying classical non-dual yogic philosophy as geography for both preparation and integration from the entheogenic experience gained attention around the world at the first WBAC (World Bufo Alvarius Congress) in 2018 and continues to shift the landscape of psychedelic use.
Joel and the Tandava team are opening the world’s first 5-MeO-DMT retreat center in beautiful Tepoztlan, Mexico in November of 2021 and will be welcoming participants to come and book a 3, 5, or 7-day personalized retreat. Following shortly after, they will be opening their Costa Rica location in partnership with Hive Bio in mid-2022. Kaivalya Kollectiv’s subsidiary companies include Tandava retreats, F.I.V.E. Education platform, and an upcoming app called Gnosis.
As it expands its footprint, it is now welcoming The Conscious Fund onto their advisory board. “We are honored to have guidance from an industry powerhouse like The Conscious Fund, we’re expanding quicker than we had ever thought, who better to help shape this growth than TCF” says founder and CEO Joel Brierre.
Founding partner Henri Sant-Cassia commented “Joel and his team have shown deep understanding of psychedelic wellness, luxury hospitality and brand building, and we see them becoming the international leader in this expanding sector. We are delighted to be helping accelerate their growth”.
