Mycomysticism Festival
Playa del Carmen, Mexico | May 15–29, 2025
What Is the Mycomysticism Festival?
The Mycomysticism Festival is an event destined to become a culmination point for those who are seeking not just rest or inspiration, but a genuine connection with themselves, with nature, and with sacred depth.
This is not just a festival.
It is a spiritual experience, a ceremony, a gathering of people who know: mushrooms are more than just a psychedelic.
They are the Path.
Why Mexico?
Mexico was not chosen by chance.
It is here, among jungles and mountains, that mushroom ceremonies have been conducted for thousands of years.
Local shamans called psilocybin mushrooms “flesh of the gods” — through them, gateways to the Spirit World were opened.
Here, mushrooms are not entertainment, not a trend, but a sacred tool.
The Mycomysticism Festival restores this meaning. And it does so consciously, gently, and deeply.
This is a space where ancient knowledge merges with modern consciousness, creating a living, authentic tradition for a new era.
Who Is Behind the Festival?
The organizer is Mycomysticism, a spiritual ecosystem of the new era, based on shamanic tradition, ceremonial work with mushrooms, and the pursuit of freedom without dogma.
At the head of the movement is Pavel Dmitriev, a shaman and teacher, around whom an international community of new guides has formed.
The festival gathers those who are ready to create something new — with intention, honesty, and depth.
Psychedelics: Ancient Allies on the Path of Healing
Psychedelics are not drugs. These are sacred plants and substances that have been used since ancient times by shamans around the world as tools of deep purification. Ayahuasca, psilocybin mushrooms, peyote, bufo — each of them carries a unique consciousness capable of guiding a person to the very root of pain, fear, and loss of meaning.
Through a properly structured ceremony, through the work with a shaman, a person does not simply “experience something” — they come into contact with the truth. They see what is hidden. They receive the opportunity to let go of what no longer serves. To forgive. To accept. To be reborn.
Psilocybin is especially subtle. It works gently but deeply, opening consciousness without violence. Today, its effects are scientifically proven: it helps with severe forms of depression, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic syndrome, and addictions. And most importantly — it does not suppress symptoms, but reveals the cause, activating the internal resources of healing.
We see how ceremony participants who have not felt joy for many years begin to smile. How chronic anxiety disappears. How pain goes away, pain that neither medicine nor therapy could relieve.
This is not magic. This is power, revealed with respect, experience, and intention.
Our Philosophy: Why We Do This
Mycomysticism Festival is not a festival in the usual sense. This is a living organism, created for deep internal processes. This is a space where every person can come into contact with their true self, hear themselves beyond the mind, come out of pain, fear, and loneliness — and take a step toward healing.
We believe in the power of community. Here, each participant becomes part of a living field, filled with trust and support. Here you can be real, without masks. Here, no one teaches how things should be — here, we create the conditions for you to remember who you are.

The Space
The festival will take place at the OZEN retreat center, a secluded and harmonious space in nature, just 20 minutes from Playa del Carmen and 50 minutes from Cancun International Airport.
For your comfort:
- 60 private studios for participants
- More than 1,200 m² of equipped spaces for practices, ceremonies, concerts, and gatherings
This is a place where you can truly disconnect from the world and connect to yourself. Where nothing distracts. Where everything breathes in resonance with your process.
Total Immersion: Body, Soul, and Nutrition in Unity
To ensure your journey is not only deep but also harmonious, Mycomysticism Festival offers a complete system of support on all levels: physical, energetic, and spiritual.
Yoga — Tuning into the Wave
Each morning begins with a gentle yet powerful practice that:
- Awakens the body and activates energy
- Helps balance the internal state
- Prepares for ceremonies and meditations
- Reduces anxiety and strengthens the nervous system
Yoga is not a warm-up. It is a tool for tuning consciousness.
Massage and Body Practices — A Powerful Tool for Integration
Ceremonial experience often touches the deepest levels of our consciousness. To move through these processes gently and safely, the festival offers a body therapy zone — a space where the body helps the soul complete the transformation.
Massage and body practices:
- Support integration after ceremonies, helping to translate the experience into the body
- Release deep tension — both physical and emotional
- Return a sense of grounding, peace, and safety
- Offer a state of acceptance and support when words no longer work
This is not just relaxation — this is powerful bodywork that helps the participant retain internal discoveries and move to a new level of wholeness.
Ceremonial Cuisine — Food as Part of the Path
Throughout the festival, you will be supported by a special diet created with consideration of the physical and spiritual processes of the participants:
- Light plant-based meals
- Cleansing dishes and drinks
- Products that support the psyche and energy
- A meal schedule aligned with ceremonies and practices
Here, food becomes a ritual that:
- Enhances perception
- Facilitates transformations
- Supports internal cleansing
