Heart Expansion Retreat


  • Private Island (30 minutes from Vancouver, BC — exact location shared upon registration) (map)

About This Event:

Legacy Journeys invites you to a deeply transformative three-day retreat set on a peaceful island close to Vancouver. This immersive experience is designed to help participants reconnect with themselves, open their hearts, and experience the healing potential of MDMA in a guided and therapeutic setting.

The retreat includes a complete journey that moves through preparation, ceremony, and integration, held in a small and supportive group of seven participants. Each person is cared for within an intimate environment that allows for presence, safety, and connection. Nourishing meals, ocean views, and time in nature create the perfect atmosphere for emotional release and renewal.

This retreat is intended for those who feel ready to experience the depth, clarity, and compassion that this medicine can bring within a supportive and professionally held space.
