Leading Psilocybin-truffle & darkness retreat programs for personal transformation

At Evolute Institute, we guide you beyond traditional learning and development, harnessing the power of altered states of consciousness to unlock profound personal and professional growth.

Whether through the natural psilocybin truffles of our legal EvoSHIFT psychedelic retreats or the sensory depth of our guided EvoDARK retreats, we create safe, expertly curated spaces for meaningful transformation.

Our retreats are designed for curious, pioneering minds ready to reconnect, reorient, and access new levels of clarity and creativity.
