Why Ceremony Matters in Psychedelic Work
Nowadays we see how psychedelic medicine is being taken to clinical trials on a much more regular basis, being tested and heavily talked about in trending conversations.
That’s why the act of being in ceremony when sitting with psychedelic medicine is so important, as we honor the sacred context in which they stem from, restoring its deeper cultural meaning. To be clear: Ceremony is not to be considered as an add on or accessory to the medicinal expedition; it is to be viewed as a long-lasting companion and essential part in the process.
“The medicine opens the door, yes. But ceremony teaches us how to walk through it with reverence, humility, and a sense of relationship. It is an intentional container that allows the unknown to feel held, and the ineffable to be fully experienced.” - Ixchel Kinloch, Founder
