A truffle ceremony at Stars Frequencies is a guided day of about 7 hours in Amsterdam. Plenty of men take part too, often people who always sort things out themselves and show little. Rosa guides you in a small group of up to 8 people (€295 per person) or privately (€495), after a free 30-minute intro call.
You sort it out yourself. You always have. You're the one who catches others, who makes the call, who doesn't complain. It works. Until somewhere it doesn't.
Maybe your partner notices that you're far away. Maybe you notice yourself that small things make you angry, or that you haven't cried in years. You know something's there. You just don't know how to reach it without losing control.
This page isn't about man or woman. It's about anyone who learned that being strong means showing nothing. Many men recognise that.
Letting go isn't a condition. It's a result. If you're used to keeping everything in hand, you don't have to give that up all at once here. You start with landing. Grounded, step by step, nothing vague.
Which health situations rule a ceremony out, you can read on the page about safety and contraindications.
You arrive calmly. Rosa leads the meditation and plays the singing bowls live in the room. Your mind gets something to follow and your body can settle. Meditation and sound healing are part of every ceremony, private and duo ceremonies too. You don't have to let go of anything before you're ready.
If you're sceptical, it helps to know what happens. The day starts with meditation and live singing bowls. No compulsory rituals, no strange assignments. You lie or sit, listen, and notice what your body does when nothing is required of it.
A difficult moment can happen. You're not alone with it. Rosa stays in the room for the whole ceremony and there is always an emergency protocol. You can talk, move and ask Rosa to come and sit beside you. Difficult moments are part of it; they're not a sign that something is going wrong.
If something comes up, like sadness or anger, you don't have to sort it out alone. Rosa comes to sit with you if you ask and helps you let it be. Many men notice that exactly that, not having to do everything themselves, feels the most unfamiliar.
“At the hardest moment, Rosa stayed beside me.”
Every ceremony starts with a free 30-minute intro call. Rosa asks about your medication, your health and what feels scary to you. If a ceremony doesn't fit right now, she honestly says no. The amount is tailored to you together in the intro call.
In the intro call you can ask all your questions, including the critical ones. Rosa asks about your health, medication and any use of other substances. If a ceremony doesn't fit right now, she simply tells you.
“The intro call put me at ease right away.”
Participants' own words. Everyone experiences the day differently; this is not a promise.
“I see myself as a fighter, a tough person who doesn't open up easily, certainly not when others are around. So this was really something new to learn.”
“For a long time I was afraid of a ceremony like this. Anxious about losing control and afraid of what might come up.”
“I could let go of control easily and give myself over to the process. The setting and safe space Rosa created made that possible.”
Yes. Both men and women take part, in the group and privately. What participants often have in common isn't their gender, but that they live in their head a lot and find it hard to let go of control.
You don't lose consciousness: you know where you are, you can talk, move and ask Rosa to come and sit beside you. For people who are used to sorting everything out themselves, letting go on command is often the hardest part. So we don't ask for it. Meditation and sound healing give your body something to rest on, and Rosa stays in the room for the whole ceremony. Letting go isn't a condition here. If it happens, it's a result.
Rosa works with meditation and live singing bowls, and she explains beforehand what happens and why. There are no compulsory rituals. You don't have to believe in anything to take part. Many sceptical participants say afterwards that the grounded guidance made the difference.
That's fine, and it happens often. The group is small, up to 8 people, and everyone is busy with their own experience. If you'd rather have nobody around you, you can choose a private ceremony (€495).
A group ceremony costs €295 per person, with up to 8 participants. A private ceremony costs €495; if you come as two, you pay €891 together. The day lasts about 7 hours and always includes meditation and sound healing. You start with a free 30-minute intro call.
A ceremony is not a replacement for medical or psychological care.
