Preparing for a psychedelic experience is an essential part of using plant medicines for healing and transformation. Modern media places so much emphasis on the psychedelic journey itself without addressing all the work that comes beforehand.
In this episode, Nicholas Levich and Jimmy Nguyen start by defining what preparation is as well as why it’s so important. They discuss tangible steps and practices that you can implement in your own preparatory process, as well as some universal tools and helpful frameworks.
The hosts explain when to start preparing and common themes that emerge during preparation. From there, they discuss what intentions are and how to actually set them while actively managing expectations.
This episode also addresses how a facilitator or psychedelic guide can assist in the preparation process through mirroring, accountability, and rapport building. Finally, the hosts present several questions to consider as a potential journeyer to help gauge whether you are ready to move forward or not.
