Preparation Bundle

Preparing for a psychedelic journey isn't only about understanding what might happen. It's also an opportunity to become more aware of how you pay attention, what you may already be carrying into the experience, and what begins to surface as the journey approaches.

The Psychedelic Preparation Bundle brings together two complementary courses that approach preparation from different directions.

Psychedelic Preparation Mini-Course focuses specifically on the journey ahead. You'll explore some of the fundamentals of psychedelic preparation, including intention versus expectation, mindset, the idea of approaching the medicine as a teacher, and simple practices for becoming curious about what may already be emerging before your experience.

Get Out of Your Head takes a more experiential approach. Through exercises involving music, drawing, nature, movement, touch, spatial awareness and the body, you'll practise shifting attention away from constant interpretation and toward direct experience.

Together, the courses invite you to do more than simply think about preparing.

You'll experiment with becoming more aware of physical sensation, noticing before naming, feeling before figuring everything out, tolerating a little more uncertainty, and becoming more flexible in where and how you place your attention.

There is nothing you're supposed to discover and no particular state you're trying to achieve. The idea isn't to empty your mind, manufacture an insight or predict what your psychedelic experience will be.

It's to practise another way of paying attention.

By beginning this work before your journey, you also create space for things to surface ahead of time. A memory, reaction, resistance, physical sensation or realization may become more noticeable simply because you've started paying closer attention. When that happens, there is time to become curious about it before the psychedelic experience itself.

Both courses are self-guided and combine written material with experiential exercises and guided audio practices. You can move through them at your own pace and spend more time with the practices that feel most useful to you.

The bundle can be used to prepare for a psychedelic journey with any facilitator. If you later choose to work with me as your facilitator, the full amount you paid for the bundle will be credited toward your journey fee.
