I’ve been asked how this work has been helpful for my clients. Their stories aren’t mine to share, but what I can offer is my personal experience with ketamine-assisted psychotherapy in a group setting (and much of what’s happened for me since then, I commonly hear from others, as well).
The journey itself was intense and beautiful and expansive, and I felt safe and well-supported throughout it. In the 18-months since then, a few incredible shifts that have sustained:
My relationships with my children feel more like I want them to (tender, playful, connected), more of the time. I feel a deep undercurrent of trust that my kids are going to be okay, even as they navigate life’s challenges (which means I worry less and enjoy them more, exactly as they are).
Massive decrease in existential dread. For years I would spend several days each month on the couch feeling hopeless and wondering “What is even the point of all of this??” That’s happened ONE time in the past 18-months. This doesn’t mean I’m now detached from the well-being of our exquisite planet or from caring deeply about the lived experiences of all of Earth’s inhabitants…
What it HAS meant is a massive INCREASE in bandwidth! Which looks like having the capacity for being with ALL of life. And that means having sustained energy for taking meaningful action into the world, while simultaneously cultivating a personal life that feels (largely) “just right.”
I’m deeply grateful to psychedelic medicines and what they’re offering us at this exact moment in human history. That’s the heart and the “why” of this one-day retreat.
I hope you’ll join us.
