Birthday Peyote Prayer & Retreat
August 29 - 30, 2026
Overnight Peyote Prayer & Retreat
In Honor of Chai Elul and Moishe’s Birthday
Join us after Shabbos for a special overnight gathering in honor of
Chai Elul—the birthday of the Baal Shem Tov, the Alter Rebbe,
and Moishe.
This gathering is open to friends, family, and members of the Tikkun community
who already have experience working with plant medicine at Tikkun.
The Experience
The night is a farbrengen devoted to prayer, singing, and personal reflection.
We encourage everyone to stay with their own experience throughout the ceremony.
The following morning, we come together for
sharing, integration, and celebration.
Peyote is known as a heart-opening medicine. It can help bring forward what we
need to face before leading us back toward greater clarity, honesty, and love.

A Note About Participation
Everyone’s relationship with the medicine is different. Throughout the night,
you’re welcome to come forward and take as much or as little medicine as feels
right for you. Some people choose not to take any medicine at all. There is no
expectation either way.
Simply being present in the ceremony is medicine.
What matters most is showing up with sincerity, prayer, and a willingness to be present.
If you choose to join us, we ask that you commit to staying for the entire
experience—from the opening circle through morning integration.
Your presence is part of the circle, and staying together until the end is an important part of the work.
Suggested Donation
Your presence is the greatest gift.
A suggested donation of $360 helps cover the cost of the night, If you’d like to support Tikkun, $770 helps us continue building a place where people can come to heal, reconnect, and remember who they are.

we’d love to celebrate together.
