Everything about Camp Coleman was divinely curated and well-executed. From the moment I read the prep guide, I knew my life was about to be catapulted into a different reality. I knew that version of myself had an expiration date. The detox tests you in the best way. Preparing you for what’s next so that the day of your journey it will FEEL easy, like you’re home. & it did. The hard part was behind me, so on the day of my journey, the only thing left was to surrender & quantum leap.

Coleman’s passion for what he does radiates in every encounter with him. We didn’t know each other very well, yet it felt like my soul had known him my whole life because of his kindness and wisdom. He is in it with you, cheering you on along the way and answering every question you have. He’s there to listen if you want to talk or sit with you in silence if that’s what you need. This was one of the most vulnerable things I’ve ever done, and my only regret is not doing it sooner. I’ve experienced a lot of trauma throughout my life and have gone down almost every rabbit hole trying to loosen the grip it had on my life, but nothing worked as quickly as my journey did. It felt like 10 years of therapy & generational healing in a matter of hours. I COULDN’T BELIEVE IT. I thought there would be this piece of me that would always feel broken, & I don’t feel that way anymore. Coleman changed my life in a way you can’t really put into words. Just tears, lots & lots of happy tears. I will be forever grateful for this experience & the ways it healed my soul.

I would highly recommend choosing Cole as a guide for your journey. The process he has come up with to prep you and for the actual journey is well thought out. The prep can be difficult because it requires altering your daily routine but it is definitely worth it. It helped me get into a great mindset going into my journey and kept my intentions at the forefront of my mind. The day of the journey I was nervous but going through the daily steps of my prep helped to relax me and keep me focused on the purpose of my journey. The pre-medicine ceremony was calming and really got me into the right mindset before my journey. I enjoyed the prayer it helped me feel connected to Cole and myself. I also really liked burning the sage and asking the spirit to be there with me to guide me through my journey. During the journey the music you listen to is amazing. It helped to bring out some deep emotions and thoughts I had held down. Then when the music reaches its peak it is pure bliss. Your whole mind and body just feels amazing. I really felt like I had gone on a long journey far away. Cole gave me reassurance when needed and was very patient and understanding of any of my needs. He has a very kind and calming energy that helps you feel at ease. He also brought a baby gate to help keep my crazy dog out of the space I would be in which was very appreciated. A day or two after the ceremony I was able to talk with Cole and process my journey with him. He didn't try to get me to share anything that was to personal and focused on the overall feels I had during my journey as well as the things my body was trying to tell me I needed in my life. He helped me create a plan to implement those changes in my life. If you choose Cole to help guide you on this journey know you are in safe, capable and understanding hands!

I had such an amazing experience with Coleman for this journey he took me on.

The initial prep was very in-depth and thorough, from the physical aspects like eating the proper things, cleansing your body, and lessening your intake of “easy dopamine”, to the spiritual side of getting more connected with yourself, getting grounded, and getting in alignment to be receptive to the messages that come through during the actual journey. Although some people might find that the protocols for the prep could be a little excessive, Coleman does a very good job of explaining the importance of the prep in his program and why it’s important to be so intentional with your body and what you’re consuming leading up to the journey. You’re not left wondering why things are set up the way they are, and if you do have any questions, Coleman is very responsive, inviting, and clear in his communications throughout the whole process. It made things feel less intimidating as well, knowing that he’s there to support you with anything you need.

From the weekly check-ins, the documents, videos, and links for supplies that he sends to you, to the nutritional support and spiritual guidance, he does a great job with leading you to a successful and impactful journey, while also listening to any input that you have to make things more personalized. Intention is apart of the entire process, and I feel like it helped to see what the end-goal was as a motivator.

The day of my journey was pretty stressful and anxiety-ridden, but once I was able to set up my safe space for the ceremony and Coleman was able to cleanse the space, it started to feel much better. The anticipation was the hardest part of the journey, I feel! He also stayed with me and told me stories as the medicine was kicking in to help calm my nerves. Coleman took me through a cleansing process/prayer with sage to prepare myself mentally/spiritually, and it was such a special moment. Coleman created a space where I felt very spiritually connected, loved, and supported, which really helped set the tone for the journey as I waited for the medicine to take affect. It was my favorite part of the ceremony.

During the ceremony, you listen to this incredible music that really helps to guide you. Speaking from my personal journey, the music was taking me through a war I was fighting within myself, building to a climax until the music changed to bliss. I was no longer fighting myself, and I fully accepted myself in that moment. I was whole and perfect. It was such a profound experience. The music was very well thought out, and I was able to release a lot of trapped emotions and trauma. After the ceremony, we sat by a fire and performed a cord cutting ritual that Coleman guided me through, and I would say that was my second favorite part of the experience. It gave a sense of finality and was an amazing way to bring the ceremony to a close.

A few days after the ceremony, I was able to meet with Coleman again to discuss the experience, what the take-away was from the journey, and how to integrate what I’ve learned into my life to create lasting change. He had some very good thought-provoking questions that helped me think through every aspect of the journey to get the most out of my experience.

All in all, it was a very good experience that I would recommend to anyone looking to better themselves, and to break through blocks and barriers that you may have. Even months after my ceremony, I still use some practices that were used during the preparation stage of the journey, like the cold showers and enemas (tmi? Lol), because I was able to see how these things have made such a positive difference in my life. Very grateful to have gotten the opportunity to take this medicine journey with Coleman, and I look forward to doing it again!

Coleman supplies an amazing plant medicine experience! I've been wanting to explore the realm of plant medicine but its always given me an elevated amount of anxiety and because of that I continually put it off and avoided putting myself in a situation where I could have an experience. Coleman helped give me the push and comfort I needed to see it through. 

Leading up to my actual use of the plant medicine he supplied me with a regiment of bodily wellness, clean eating, and mental/spiritual rituals to get my mind and body on the right track to accept the medicine and understand the lessons that would be taught to me by the medicine. The experience itself was nothing short of magical and enlightening. There was only one thing that I would change about my experience, which would be the fasting portion. Leading up to the ceremony, the fast was great to help me feel comfortable and make it so the medicine acted quickly, but I believe I would have been able to pay more attention to the feelings and thoughts I was having if I wouldn't have been as focused on my rumbly tummy. Other than that everything taught by Coleman leading up to the ceremony and the ceremony itself was amazing and I can't wait to be able to have another experience like the one I had.

This was my first experience with a plant medicine journey and I can’t imagine It could have gone better.

The prep for this journey alone has added so much value to my life. The tools/ guidance Coleman provides helped me create a daily routine that gives me joy and always sets my days up right.

During those prep days leading up to my journey Coleman and I talked about what I can expect and when I had some new worry come up he would talk it through with me. Those conversation were super helpful and by the time that my journey day came I felt prepared and anxiety free.

That day was all just good vibes. Coleman is an easy dude to talk to, he’s got great energy and it never feels awkward or forced in conversation. He always made sure I knew what was next in the plan for the day and he had everything put together so well I knew I didn’t have to worry about anything besides taking the medicine and doing the thing. 

Before taking the medicine, he led a prayer and cleansed the space. I thought at the time a person doesn’t even need to be spiritually inclined to do this because Coleman has enough spiritual connection for two. His processes felt very sacred and humbling. 

While he cleansed the space he gave me time to do whatever I needed, that was really nice to take a moment before to connect and get grounded. I took the medicine right after that and it was a lemony ginger delight. 

I had told Coleman in the prep conversations that I wanted to be outside until the last possible minute. He respected that and chatted with me outside while we waited for the medicine to do its thing. Before I could even say it Coleman just intuitively knew I had hit the point where it was time to go in, which was honestly impressive.

I don’t know if any of the actual journey can put any weight on Coleman’s part but in case it does for someone, my journey was a great. I don’t know what I was expecting but it was better than that. 

Even though while I was in it I was not aware of like space and time I was aware that Coleman was there, which was welcomed when I needed his confirmations at a point when I thought that I had been in it for hours (I had not.)

Post journey he was by my side as I hobbled around and made sure I didn’t die. He sat and listened to me try to articulate what had happened in my journey and the things that were happening after. Some of the things I was saying were wild and  if the situation was reversed, I might have thought he was crazy but he was very empathetic and kind and didn’t make it seem like anything but normal. We had good conversations until I was in a good enough state to go home and it was a great time, he’s great company! 

The next day I had started to spiral in self judgement because of some things that happened during the journey but he talked me through it and after I felt great.

I recently had the privilege of experiencing a psilocybin journey through Camp Coleman, and I can wholeheartedly say it was one of the most meaningful and healing experiences of my life. From start to finish, the process was handled with care, professionalism, and deep compassion.

Cole, in particular, was an incredible guide. He was deeply supportive throughout the entire experience—before, during, and after. His preparation work helped me feel safe, grounded, and well-informed going into the journey. He took the time to understand where I was coming from emotionally and mentally, and created a space that felt both sacred and secure.

During the journey itself, Cole’s presence was calm, reassuring, and non-intrusive. He knew when to offer guidance and when to simply hold space. I never once felt alone or overwhelmed; his steady support helped me navigate some intense emotional insights with clarity and peace.

This experience at Camp Coleman has left a lasting impact on me. I came away with a deeper understanding of myself and a renewed sense of purpose. I would absolutely recommend Camp Coleman to anyone considering a psilocybin experience, especially for those who value intentionality, safety, and a truly caring guide.

The prep part leading up to the journey wasn’t too out of the norm for my lifestyle. I had done enemas before and already eat really clean, organic whole foods. I have a spiritual routine that grounds and connects me. I had already micro-dosed the medicine prior to this journey. I found it relatively easy to prep for the day of.

The day of my journey I was pretty nervous, but also excited. I personally am sensitive to the medicine so there’s always some anxiety for me. But Coleman talked through all my anxious thoughts. I did my enema in the morning, and then went and did a cold plunge, prior to taking the medicine. I prepared my space with my favorite crystals and pictures. I was expecting the medicine to taste bad, but with a tea bag and sweetener added, it actually tasted good. The medicine kicked in quickly for me. I was ready to start my journey about 15 mins after drinking it. Coleman helped me put my mask and headphones on and made sure the playlist was ready to go and then, I snuggled into my cozy bed as the medicine kicked in. I listened to the music and allowed whatever the medicine wanted to show me to come to me. My mantra was to let go and surrender. I had lots of emotions throughout the journey. For me, the experience was like the most intense meditation I’ve ever done. I definitely had moments that I had to push through mentally that were intense. But overall, it was a beautiful, healing experience with highs and lows of emotions and some purging of emotions after the meditation. I’m excited to do more and continue to use the medicine and Coleman as a guide. It was such a beautiful experience and I’m so grateful to have had Coleman there to support and guide me through it. He really provided a loving, supportive, grounding environment and energy that aided in my personal journey. I would highly encourage having Coleman as your medicine journey guide.
