WHAT IS PSYCHEDELIC ASSISTED THERAPY
Psychedelic Medicines have the ability to alter perception and consciousness, often provoking visual or auditory hallucinations and dream-like or “mystical” encounters (Nichols, 2016). The sessions where medicine is consumed often have a “preparatory” and “integrative” therapeutic sessions, providing a holding structure to prepare the client for the experience and help them process it afterward.
A trained professional monitors the client while under the effects of the medicines. The psychedelic may deepen their insight into these experiences to facilitate change and personal growth.
At Somaya retreats, guests have the opportunity to experience the transformative power of Plant medicine ceremonies, which are conducted over a period of 9 days, with a total of 3 ceremonies. Bokator is a highly spiritual practice that has been derived from a spiritual source. It was designed to awaken the warrior spirit and energy of the people of the Kingdom. We are excited to provide a one-of-a-kind experience for both local and international spiritual seekers to explore the sacred connections between Soma/Ayahuasca, Bokator arts, the spiritual presence of elephants, and other traditional Buddhist spiritual practices. Our aim is to provide a platform where we revive ancient Cambodian magic to rebirth the next generation of wisdom keepers.

Research and legalization
Our long term goal and vision is to ensure Cambodia is not left out of the legalization movement. Moreover, Cambodia is in a unique position to help collaborate with research institutions and universities. Somaya hopes to there will be funding and grants we can access to start to collect evidence of the therapeutic benefits of ayahuasca and other psychedelic that we can take to key decisions makers in the royal government of Cambodia.
