All About Me
We lack the spaces (physical & temporal) to properly interact with each other around these expanded state/numinous experiences. - creating that space (power of witness and community). *All too many of us feel the absence of a community that is has an established ceremonial container capable of receiving us in our transformations, and celebrating us in the embodiment of them.
prep/journey/integration is a continuum of experience
prep/integration create opportunities for life-long learning
Preparation:
- self- tracking, psycho-spiritual resourcing & trauma-informed healing practices; connecting with inner wisdom
- building a relationship of trust with each other, oneself, one's guides/ancestors/allies
- cultivating/developing a window of tolerance/emotional fluency (ability to remain present with discomfort and uncertainty - to be willing to surrender yourself over to the unknown) **as mushrooms are agentic beings ; cultivating willingness, trust, and surrender
- connecting with your intention for this journey
- opening up to the mystery of saying yes to being re-shaped and transformed by the experience
- establishing a respectful and meaningful relationship with plant guides
Journey:
- co-created and curated (so as to meet the needs of each person)
- set and setting (on the land with me)
- 3 day immersion
- weaving the container through ceremony, ritual, yoga/embodiment, guided meditations, personalized invitations, wanders, dream work etc.
Integration:
- grounding our experiences in our lives - to bring it home to the body and our day to day, while also allowing ourselves to be shaped by the experience (this is a non-linear process); in-corporating
- honoring the messages, insights, revelations received
Prep & Integration sessions can be focused and/or emergent
What do know about your plant guides:
- non-addictive
- they amplify and bring our personal/ancestral/collective material to the forefront
- all bodies are different in their experience with mushrooms (some examples of what can happen)
