You don't have to let go on command. Meditation and sound healing with singing bowls are a fixed part of the day: they give your mind something to follow and help your body settle. That's how you can feel again what sits beneath the thinking. A full day, in a small group or private.
“I had been in my head for so long that I no longer knew what was underneath.”

A truffle ceremony (also called a psilocybin ceremony) at Stars Frequencies is a guided day of about 7 hours in Amsterdam: a truffle ceremony with live singing bowls (sound healing) and meditation, for people who live in their head and want to feel again. Rosa guides you in a small group of up to 8 people (€295 per person) or privately (€495). You always start with a free 30-minute intro call.

You've read, talked, maybe done years of therapy or coaching. You understand your patterns. But understanding isn't the same as feeling.
And when someone says 'just let go', your mind works even harder. That isn't your fault: your mind is doing what it was made for, protecting you.
That's why we don't ask you to let go here. We help you land.
“I went in with the intention to let go, to act less from my head and sink more into my feelings.”
“I see myself as a fighter, a tough person who doesn't open up easily, certainly not with others around.”
At many ceremonies the message is: surrender. For people who live in their head, that rarely works on command. That's why it works differently here.
You arrive calmly. Rosa leads the meditation and plays the singing bowls. Your mind gets something to follow and your body can settle. Meditation and sound healing are part of every ceremony, private and duo included.
During the journey Rosa stays in the room. You can talk, move or ask her to come and sit with you. Nothing is required, everything at your own pace.
“Especially the start with meditation, singing bowls and breathing made it very easy to ease into it.”
Beforehand
By phone or WhatsApp. You share where you are and what you find scary. Rosa asks about medication and health. Together you decide whether a ceremony suits you right now. Even if the answer is no.
"The intro call put me at ease right away." · Merel, website review, translated from Dutch
At home
You receive preparation for at home: what to eat, how to set an intention and what to bring. There is nothing to practise.
The day, about 7 hours
You arrive calmly, in a small group or privately. Meditation and live singing bowls are a fixed part of the day. Rosa is present for the whole ceremony and tuned in to you. She senses when to be close and when to give space.
Closing and aftercare
You close with room to share, if you want to, and a healthy meal. In the week after there is a personal check-in with Rosa, so you're not left alone with what you experienced.
“Anxious about losing control and afraid of what might come up.”
“Especially the start with meditation, singing bowls and breathing made it very easy to ease into it.”
“At the hardest moment Rosa stayed next to me.”
“I could easily let go of control and surrender to the process.”

Read all truffle ceremony experiencesRosa guides truffle ceremonies in Amsterdam, with singing bowls, meditation and bodywork. She doesn't lead your journey, she holds the space. Before the day begins she wants to know who you are: that's why everything starts with a personal intro call.
More about Rosa →“I want to know who you are before the day begins. After that I'm present, not to lead but to hold space.”
About half of the participants are doing it for the first time. No experience needed.

Three worries Rosa often hears in the intro call, with honest answers.
You don't have to let go of anything before you're ready. You stay aware of where you are. You can talk, move and ask Rosa to come to you. Meditation and sound are there precisely for people who find this scary.
“I could easily let go of control and surrender to the process.”
A difficult moment can happen. You're not alone with it: Rosa is in the room for the whole ceremony and helps you allow the moment instead of fighting it. Difficult moments are part of it, they're not a sign that something is going wrong.
“At the hardest moment Rosa stayed next to me.”
Nobody knows that in advance. That's what the intro call is for: Rosa listens to your situation, your intention and what you find scary. The day is then prepared for you, not a standard programme.
“I was nervous beforehand, but Rosa's calm was contagious.”

You don't pay anything yet.
You don't lose consciousness. You know where you are, you can talk, move and ask Rosa to come and sit with you. And you don't have to let go of anything before you're ready. Meditation and sound healing with singing bowls are a fixed part of every ceremony: they give your mind something to follow and help your body settle.
Letting go doesn't happen on command. It isn't a condition for taking part, it's something that may happen. If it doesn't come right away, that isn't failing. Rosa is in the room for the whole ceremony, tuned in to you, and you can always ask her to come to you.
A difficult moment can happen. Sometimes something comes up that has been tucked away for a long time. You're not alone with it: Rosa is in the room for the whole ceremony, senses when to be close and when to give space, and you can always ask her to come to you. She helps you allow the moment instead of fighting it. In the intro call she checks beforehand whether a ceremony suits you right now.
How Rosa handles difficult moments →We agree the amount together in the intro call, based on you. It isn't a competition: you don't have to go as deep as possible. Tell Rosa what you find scary and she takes it into account.
About half of the participants are doing it for the first time. No experience needed. You start with a free 30-minute intro call, you get preparation for at home, and on the day itself Rosa is with you the whole time.
How to prepare for a truffle ceremony →Coming alone is not strange. Rosa is present all day and actively holds the atmosphere in the group. The group is a maximum of 8 people, so nobody slips out of view. If you'd rather not be in a group at all, choose the private ceremony.
You don't have to. In the group everyone is in their own journey and you only share what you want. If you want no one else there, choose the private ceremony: the day is then just for you, or for you and the people you bring (up to 4 people).
Nobody can promise that, and neither do we. Experiences are personal. What participants often describe is that they feel lighter and feel more in the days after. To hold on to what you experienced, there is a personal check-in with Rosa in the week after.
Read participants' experiences →A ceremony is not a replacement for therapy, and the two don't exclude each other. The difference is the way in: in therapy you talk, here you start in your body, with meditation and sound. People who already understand a lot sometimes notice that feeling is something else than understanding. A ceremony is not a replacement for medical or psychological care.
Safety and contraindications →For €295 you get a full day in a small group: the intro call, preparation, meditation and sound healing, the ceremony, a meal and a check-in in the week after. Private costs €495. If you bring someone, every extra person gets 20% off, up to 4 people: two people €891 together, three €1.287 and four €1.683. Larger groups: tailored on request. A payment plan is possible. You only pay once the intro call shows that it suits you.
All truffle ceremony prices →Mention it in the intro call. Rosa looks honestly at whether a ceremony is responsible for you right now. You can always decide not to take part (yet), also after the call.
Always discuss it in the intro call. With some medication a ceremony isn't possible, with others only after checking with your doctor. Rosa will honestly say no if it isn't responsible.
Medication and contraindications →Tell Rosa in the intro call where you stand, including your health and medication. She looks at each person individually to see whether a ceremony is responsible right now. Truffles are legal in the Netherlands. If your family wants to read along, the safety page explains how the screening and the guidance work.
Safety page →Truffles are legal in the Netherlands, including in Amsterdam. They are not covered by the Opium Act; dried mushrooms are. Safety starts with the screening: in the intro call Rosa goes through your medication, health and contraindications. During the ceremony she is present all day and there is an emergency protocol.
Read the full safety protocol →Up to 14 days before the start you can move to another date free of charge. From 14 to 7 days before the start you pay half of the price. Within 7 days of the start no refund is possible. Questions about moving your date? Send Rosa a WhatsApp message.
