Alice Dives creates a space to reconnect with what feels true and alive. To move from performance into presence, from mental noise into inner clarity.
Many people reach a moment where life looks successful from the outside, yet something feels quietly out of rhythm. Ask Alice retreats exist to create space for honest inquiry beyond autopilot and conditioning.
A carefully designed process for personal growth | This is an immersive journey that combines preparation, guided psychedelic work, and integration in a small, intentional group. Expect honesty, intensity, connection, and space to meet yourself on a deeper level.
You are ready to go back to what feels true. For those ready to come home to themselves and move from thinking to intuition. Curiosity opens the door, but commitment is what allows you to walk through it.
Chosen for its natural beauty, calm surroundings, and the privacy needed for inner work.
Supporting courageous, truthful life choices.
After building a successful career at McKinsey & Co., she realized that something essential was missing. Rather than pushing through, she turned inward and reshaped her life around deeper alignment. Now, she holds space for others navigating that same quiet turning point.
Experiential therapist supporting people towards awareness, growth and change
A former legal researcher and policy advisor, Lynn traded the logic of institutions for the intelligence of the body. Today she is an experiential therapist and co-founder of Phaar, a practice supporting teams and leaders through change. Working from Ghent with individuals, couples and organisations, she draws on emotion-focused therapy, Gestalt, focusing and body-oriented work. Her style is engaged and active rather than quietly observant, pairing warm acceptance with honest confrontation when it serves. She specialises in helping people meet what they have been avoiding, so that awareness becomes something lived rather than merely understood.
Angelic musician and sound holder
As a lawyer, Jelena helps people put their stories into words. Later, she discovered that her singing voice offered another way to express what people feel and need to say. As Seïra, she accompanies Ask Alice journeys with live music, weaving her voice, original songs, mantras and medicine songs with harmonium, handpan, guitar, drums, monochord, ukulele and singing bowls. Her music unfolds intuitively, moving with the inner journey of each person she accompanies. She works as a resident musician at Elaisa Energetic Wellness in Belgium, where she leads rituals and ceremonies. She has also built experience holding space through music at plant medicine retreats, breathwork sessions and other ceremonial gatherings. Her voice is unhurried and deeply calming, the kind of sound that lets people stop bracing and finally let go. It can also move into rhythm, rawness and strength. She works by attunement: sensing what the room needs and, at times, quietly moving towards someone with a song meant just for them.
No. Some participants have experience, but most are completely new. What matters more than experience is readiness to approach the work with respect, preparation, and commitment.
This retreat is for curious adults who feel ready for meaningful inner work. It asks for openness and commitment to change. It is not designed for thrill-seeking or “experience hunting,” but for those genuinely interested in personal growth.
All participants complete a medical and psychological screening questionnaire to ensure the retreat is a safe and appropriate fit. If you’re unsure, you’re welcome to join a weekly info session or schedule a call to explore alignment.
Safety is central to how we work. Every participant completes a thorough medical and psychological screening questionnaire beforehand, and we actively support you in preparing mentally for the retreat.
We work in small groups to ensure maximum personal attention, guided by a professional team with over 30 years of combined experience. The retreat is carefully structured and followed by dedicated integration support.
While inner work can be intense, we prioritize informed consent, grounded facilitation, and ongoing care throughout the entire process.
Most participants are accomplished, high-functioning people who feel a quiet pull toward deeper alignment. Many have successful careers and full lives, yet sense there is more beneath the surface. The group is diverse in background, but united in curiosity and drive.
Fear is natural and welcome. Preparation helps you understand what to expect, and our facilitators remain present throughout the process. Challenging moments can arise, but when held with care they are often meaningful parts of the work.
We usually encourage participants to join independently rather than with a partner or close friend. This allows you to fully immerse yourself in your own process, without familiar dynamics influencing the experience. The retreat is held as an individual journey within a shared group setting.
