Silo Wellness Inc, a leading wellness company in the psychedelics and magic mushroom market, announced a series of psilocybin-assisted wellness retreats in Jamaica beginning next month.

Psychedelics or hallucinogens are powerful psychoactive substances that alter perception and mood and affect numerous cognitive processes while psilocybin is a naturally occurring psychedelic prodrug found in more than 200 species of fungus, including magic mushrooms.  

Based in Montego Bay, these retreats are one component of Silo Wellness’ existing psilocybin operations in Jamaica, where the company currently conducts magic mushroom and truffle cultivation and testing of the company’s patent-pending nasal spray.  

“We are prioritizing the expansion of our wellness retreat offerings to meet rising consumer demand for these transformative psychedelic experiences,” said Chief Executive Officer, Douglas K Gordon on Tuesday (April 20). 

Gordon added, “setting and mindset have a profound influence on an individual’s experience, and our Jamaican retreats offer idyllic, natural backdrops for engaging in psilocybin-assisted exploration, introspection and self-actualisation.”

Four to six days of psilocybin retreats

The new line-up of psilocybin-assisted retreats range from four to six days is expected to take place in Jamaica between May and August.
