Stop Living An Unfulfilled Life!

Stop Living An
Unfulfilling Life!

The modern world that you (and all of us) were born into has taught you to disconnect from your authentic (AKA wild) self and your true purpose. This happens naturally as we further insulate ourselves from the natural world. This has to happen for you to be part of a culture that decimates the ecosystems that we are part of with little regard.

Knowing that we contribute to this way of life but feel helpless against it affects each of us. Anxiety and depression are now massive mental health epidemics, and affect the most sensitive and aware people.  Addiction and distraction are how lots of others cope. Many more are fighting harder and in more extreme ways keep themselves in denial. 

None of these approaches will help people get to the root of our issues, as the weight of things continually pile on our consciousness. The effects of living as we do are now skyrocketing and things look more dire by the day. We shouldn’t have to live like this!

It’s going to take a big shift, and it starts with each of us breaking free from the limiting mindset instilled in us by the culture, starting with you. When you do, and you can find your path and your gift to the culture, you help others make this shift too.

A fantastic way to do this is with a mushroom journey in nature!

Embark on a Magical Journey of Transformation With Nature and Mushrooms!

Our Nature-Based Journeys take place in the enchanted forests, rivers, and mountains of Oregon. We offer preparation and integration around legal psilocybin journeys!

People have been part of the natural world far longer than the human-made one. When you’re here, everything changes, and a different part of you emerges. The mushroom experience helps you connect to a sacred, expansive sense of consciousness. Being in nature during this state of openness helps you to ground it. And the community you find helps you live that version of yourself into the world. Between the power of the medicine, our incredible facilitators, and a community of people engaged in their own personal journey, these experiences can change your life. 

Journeys

Go on this once-in-a-lifetime 5-day Journey to help you get the most out of your psilocybin experience!

We meet at Smith Rock (optional transport from Portland) and spend the day in the arid canyon. Here, you can let go of your everyday mindset and create openness for the incredible effects of the medicine. We spend the next day in Bend for the medicine session at Bend Inner Alchemy. We have a hiking or a river float option for those who choose not to take the psilocybin journey. 

We then move south for a 3-night, 2-day camping and rafting adventure deep in nature. Known as “The Emerald Jewel,” the North Umpqua River lies in an amazing, waterfall-lined valley nestled deep in the heart of the Pacific Northwest Forest. 

 

Select Dates May Through July

*We can typically accommodate specific date requests for this if you let us know prior to Nov. 1st*

Relax deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest! SUP right from camp, do yoga offered by one of our wonderful teachers, and spend time in stunningly beautiful nature for a while. Let go of everyday mindsets and habits, and connect with wild nature. 

This is the perfect setting for your psilocybin integration!

On your way out, you have the (highly recommended) option to raft through a glacier-fed lava tube with Eric as your guide!

We’re also happy to help set the container or let you hold the space in your own way, or we can facilitate the nature connection and psilocybin parts of the journey. Just let us know what you’re looking for and we’ll take care of the rest! 

Our experiences take a lot of coordination, so the further out you let us know you want a private trip, the better. At least 6 months in advance is recommended!

Eric Inman M.A., Founder

The summer between high school and college, I had my first perception-altering psychedelic experience during a Phish concert. I thought this awareness that I found would be what people learned to live into in college, and through adulthood. Boy, was I wrong! Even in the field of psychology, such states were not only rarely explored, other than mainly to be vilified. 

 I studied and worked in the world of mental health and education for over a decade, but the times when I felt closest to that state of mind is when I was in nature. I got a summer job as a raft guide in college, living with a band of other dirtbag rafters in my tent, which really felt my story move forward. After graduation, I combined my skills with my psychology degree, and worked in wilderness therapy. It was then that I realized how people’s contact with wild nature truly affects everything. 

In graduate school, I found an ecopsychology-inspired lifespan development model that changed the way I view true growth. I explored it in depth when I went on a yearlong journey with a group of others guided by Bill Plotkin, the guy who wrote the book! And in 2016 I opened my first outdoor experience company, offering nature experiences for youth and adults. I also continued guiding for other rafting companies aligned with these pursuits.

In 2023 I went through InnerTrek’s psilocybin facilitation program. Now myself, along with some incredible guides and facilitators I’ve met along the way, have the opportunity to offer you guided camping and rafting trips to enhance psilocybin journeys with deeper connection to the the natural world, and have life altering experiences for everyone involved!

Oregon Coast Journey

The rugged Oregon Coast, lined with beautiful beaches, rocky cliffs, and deep forests, has a magical feel to it. This Journey offers time and space to explore an incredible piece of it, while the rhythm of the ocean sinks you deep into peace.

The Oregon Coast Journey Offers yoga, an incredible yet easy hike, and an experience free of worry.

Ongoing Community & Support

One thing that sets us apart from other psilocybin journeys, other than the opportunity to connect so deeply with wild nature, is our dedication to helping these experiences truly make a difference in your life and in the way you “integrate” yourself back into the modern world. Our budding community of change-makers and facilitators can gather at our online community space where people share their stories, their work, have groups and integration sessions, and connect in all kinds of ways, even beyond our imagination. The intention is to truly let things Evolve Wild!

Youth And Family Camps

Our camps were created specifically with youth and families in mind. Until 2020, we ran summer camps under Forest Dream Oregon for students with Japanese backgrounds living in Oregon. International camps were on the horizon in 2020.
