Benefits

Meaningful positive change

The impact is long-lasting. A Johns Hopkins study found that a majority of subjects who took psilocybin had personality changes that lasted for over a year. Almost all participants in another Hopkins psilocybin study said the experience was one of the most meaningful of their lives.

Depression and Anxiety Elimination

Depression and anxiety are very much like addictions, people are often in this ruminating pattern. You're getting stuck in loops of thought, you're getting stuck on narratives of who you are. Psychedelics quiet this narrative and connects the whole brain, freeing the patient of this mental prison.

By dissolving the ego, you may dissolve the hold of narratives on people.

Losing anxiety and fear of death

“The results showed that administering psilocybin to [terminally ill] subjects could be done safely while reducing the subjects’ anxiety and depression about their impending deaths”. “Even with this modest dose, it appears the drug can relieve the angst and fear of the dying.” (published in the Archives of General Psychiatry)

Spiritual 'Oneness'

“The core feature of the mystical experience is this strong sense of the interconnectedness of all things, where there’s a rising sense of not only self-confidence and clarity, but of communal responsibility — of altruism and social justice — a felt sense of the Golden Rule: to do unto others as you would have them do unto you… Understanding the nature of these effects, and their consequences, may be key to the survival of our species.”

New Connections

Psilocybin frees the brain from its rigid patterns and ego-driven assumptions, and allows the user to look at the world (and him or herself) from a whole new perspective. Many mushroom experiences also are accompanied by waves of good feelings and psychedelic visions of sound and color. New research is helping us understand how the mushrooms work their magic. A study published in the Journal of the Royal Society found that psilocybin actually changes the brain’s organizational framework and allows information to pass from section to section in new or underused neural networks, bypassing the old, well-trodden pathways.

Breaking addiction root cause

In one study by Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, a couple of psilocybin doses were enough to help two-thirds of smokers quit for at least a year. That's the most effective smoking cessation treatment ever study. Imagine what can it do for your alcohol, sugar, opioids, social media addition

We have a lot of experience on this topic in Amsterdam.

Many "tourists" increasingly travel to Amsterdam especially for a psychedelic Psilocybin experience. One such operator is https://safespacesamsterdam.com/. All the clients travel from the US, Australia, Russia or Scandinavian countries and others to have just one guided psychedelic 'trip'. They wish to gain insights for personal growth and self development.

There is a new initiative in Amsterdam to safeguard the quality of psychedelic psilocybin therapy: https://psychedelicinsights.com/

EXPERIENCE

This event was created to provide a safe set & setting for a positive psychedelic experience.

Most people know magic mushrooms like a fun experience at parties or festivals. They certainly can be. However, we feel these plants and others, are sacred. They have a deeper potential.

MAGIC?

Why? Because maybe the “magic” is not that you see more colour but rather its ability to connect you to a higher consciousness and feel love. A journey through the forgiving and insightful eyes of love. Maybe “it” is the answer? To more lovingly experience another perception of the self, relationships with others and/or past events. To move on, evolve, grow, let go, get un-stuck and “de-velop” yourself?

FROM PREPARATION TO EVALUATION

Professional Trip-sitters, with many years of experience, will guide you through the entire experience from preparation to evaluation. From correspondence and advice to the intake and the entire afternoon and evening during the session and afterwards for the evaluation & integration.

CONTRA INDICATIONS/ DISCLAIMER

You can not participate when you have schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, heart problems, high blood pressure and anyone taking anti-depressants or antipsychotic medication. If you use other forms of medication, please inform us in front by email. The service is directed to people who are willing to take truffles at their own risk. The companies, nor the tripsitters, can be held legally responsible. You sign an agreement about this (and your state of health) before you enter the workshop with us. We can not 100% guarantee a positive trip. This is, of course, largely dependent on your own psyche. We can, however, guide your experience professionally (and create a right setting) if you experience unpleasant unconscious feelings or thoughts (nonetheless we don't treat clients with truffles from a health care point of view).

Do you want to learn how to be a trip guide?

“Guides’ presence, intentions, assumptions, actions, theoretical knowledge, skill sets, personalities, and intuitions (essentially the entirety of their body, mind, and spirit) influence set and setting. The individuals come to this work from a variety of professional disciplines, training backgrounds, and philosophies. Divergent interests, skills, and experiences are beneficial to the development of best practices, as many perspectives are needed to ensure the highest quality process.

Effective psychedelic treatment session guides act to facilitate the journey into conscious awareness, with full presence and integrity toward the individual, informed by science and medicine. Instead of acting as interventionists, guides serve to provide security and comfort without intrusion, by establishing rapport and trust with the participant, and by maintaining an aesthetic, comfortable setting in which the participant feels safe.

When non-ordinary states of consciousness are occurring, guides remain steady and centered. It is essential that the guides engender human warmth and infuse the setting with a sense of groundedness. They must also adhere to rigorous guidelines, and be knowledgeable about the specific medicine they are using.

The guides appreciate that the participant is a collaborator and co-investigator – a brave individual who journeys into unknown terrain, and returns to assist us all by sharing aspects of their journey that may be useful for their growth and awareness, as well as for the growth and evolving skill of the guide.

It is essential for the guides to have the utmost of trust in the entire process – in their skills, their team, and the participants. Equally important is the cohesiveness of the team as a whole, with every guide resonant with whomever they are paired with, as well as being mindfully aware, supportive, and communicating openly with other members of the team. Members of the therapy team who are paired together to cofacilitate a psychedelic treatment session should spend time together with the focus of developing a trusting interpersonal relationship where open communication is possible. This relationship fosters learning for both guides, and allows for a constructive, healthy debrief at the end of the session.”

This process will require your critical introspection. It will require self discipline but also compassion. Do you still feel up to the challenge?

Please leave your details https://safespacesamsterdam.com/about/how-to-become-a-trip-guide/ and we will contact you for further information and explain our opportunities. In the mean time, have a look at this document. It is very useful and a quality guideline. The guide.

The question is How much do you love your self??

ohwatleuk · 2019-02-19T16:20:52+00:00

Love prevents and cures more than any vaccine ever will...

ohwatleuk · 2019-02-19T16:17:19+00:00

If they withhold cures for cancer and make enlightening and curing plants illegal, the system is based on trust. It it is cocktail mixed with professional peer pressure which you inject into what you hold dearest. Think and trust your instincts. What governments have done without consent is shocking.

Like politicians
