Overview

"Psychedelics has once again made its way into the public sphere, as part of the so called ""psychedelic reneisance"". Several studies are once again up and running around the world, and it is no beyond any doubt that substances like psilocybin, LSD and MDMA have a huge potential to heal the wounded, help us to a new and better course in life, and maybe even elevate our level of social consciousness. Still, many use these substances in non-informed and straight forward stupid and perhaps also dangerous ways. This small book aims to give anyone interested in the topic new understanding of the importance of doing this right. The book is divided into two primary sections. The first part delves into the basics, offering insights into the biochemistry of psychedelics, their historical context, and the subjective experience of a psychedelic trip. Hopefully the narrative brings forward the essence of psychedelics, challenging common misconceptions and highlighting their capacity to facilitate profound, life-altering experiences. The exploration of ""set and setting,"" alongside the detailed accounts of the psychedelic experience, underscores the critical importance of preparation and environment in shaping these journeys. In the second section, we make a transition to the pragmatic aspects of employing psychedelics in a therapeutic context - or one of general personal development. The focus is practical guidelines for conducting psychedelic sessions, emphasizing safety, preparation, and the pivotal role of the tripsitter. This section is particularly valuable for therapists and individuals alike, providing a structured approach to harnessing the therapeutic and developing potential of psychedelics while minimizing risks. The inclusion of topics such as the impact of music, the significance of altered states of consciousness, and strategies for integration, hopefully further enriches the reader's understanding and preparedness for psychedelic experiences.
