This presentation will provide important skills and knowledge that will deepen your understanding of what a grounded and embodied sitter can be. We will explore the many sides of sitting, as well as what it means to prepare yourself and others to navigate the terrain of the psychedelic experience. Based on somatic and relational psychotherapy, psychedelic ethics, transpersonal psychology and more, we will explore how to embody what it means to be a safe person within a psychedelic container, how to build that container, and some ways to respond to what may emerge in a session.
