​
Preparation
Preparation for a psilocybin session is considered beneficial for several reasons:
Facilitator Connection: It allows clients to establish a connection with their facilitator. Building rapport and trust with the facilitator can contribute to a more supportive and comfortable environment during the psilocybin session.
​
Intake Assessment: The preparation session involves a review of the client's intake information. This assessment helps determine the individual's suitability for a psilocybin session, taking into account their physical and mental health, as well as any potential contraindications.
Safety Planning: Clients can plan for safe transportation to and from the session location. This is crucial, as psilocybin can alter perception and cognition, and ensuring a safe journey enhances the overall experience.
Post-Session Support: Planning for support at home following the psilocybin session is an important aspect of preparation. This may involve arranging for a trusted individual to be present, creating a conducive environment, and having access to resources that promote well-being.
Intention Setting: Setting intentions for the psilocybin session during the preparation allows individuals to focus on specific goals or outcomes. This can enhance the therapeutic and transformative potential of the experience.
Reducing Anxiety: Knowing what to expect and having a clear plan can help reduce anxiety and uncertainty associated with the psilocybin session. This, in turn, contributes to a more positive and relaxed mindset going into the experience.
Optimizing the Experience: Adequate preparation contributes to optimizing the overall psilocybin experience. It allows individuals to approach the session with a sense of readiness and purpose, potentially enhancing the therapeutic benefits and insights gained.
​
In summary, the preparation for a comprehensive process that addresses physical, emotional, and logistical aspects to ensure a safe, supportive, and transformative experience.
Assisted Session
Safe Space: Final review of a place for a psilocybin session is crucial for promoting a positive and supportive experience. Establishing a safe place involves careful consideration of both the physical and psychological aspects of the environment. It's important to tailor the setting to the individual's preferences and needs, fostering a supportive atmosphere for the transformative journey.
Presence and Support: Providing a presence that is grounded, empathetic, and supportive helps create a container in which the individual feels safe to explore the depths of their consciousness. It's a delicate balance of active engagement and respectful observation, with the primary goal of facilitating a positive and transformative experience.
​
Monitoring and Safety: The goal of monitoring is to ensure the safety and comfort of the individual, as well as to provide appropriate support and guidance during their journey.This process involves regularly assessing vital signs, observing emotional states, and being attuned to any challenges or changes in the person's demeanor. Effective monitoring is a crucial aspect of creating a supportive and secure environment for individuals undergoing a psilocybin session, contributing to a positive and transformative experience while minimizing potential risks.
​
Music / Sound Theme Selection: The selection of music is a crucial aspect of shaping the overall atmosphere and influencing the individual's experience. Music can evoke emotions, enhance visuals, and guide the emotional and psychological journey. When selecting music, it's important to create a diverse and flexible playlist that can adapt to the individual's changing states of consciousness.
​
Navigating Through Challenging Moments : Challenging moments refer to periods where an individual may encounter difficult emotions, thoughts, or experiences that may be distressing or uncomfortable. These moments are a natural part of the psychedelic experience and can vary widely in nature and intensity. Various strategies may be offered upon request during those periods to navigate and work through challenging moments.
​
Session Notes / Documentation: The guide may create a detailed record of the client's experiences, emotions, insights, and any therapeutic interventions that occurred during the session. This documentation is essential for ensuring continuity of care, facilitating integration, and adhering to ethical and legal standards. The act of documenting a psychedelic session is a responsible and sensitive task that requires careful consideration of the client's privacy, confidentiality, and well-being. The documentation serves as a valuable tool for both the guide and the client in understanding and integrating the experiences and insights gained during the session.
