Embodied Psychedelic Therapy

Embodied Psychedelic Therapy is a guide to holding space for people taking psychedelics for personal exploration, spiritual expansion and healing. Covering preparation, the psychedelic journey itself and integration afterwards, it details how a focus on embodiment greatly benefits work with expanded states of consciousness. The book emerges from the intersection of psychedelics and somatics, weaving body-centred practices into the various stages of psychedelic work. It delves into ethics, adverse events, trauma, the use of touch and other themes relevant to psychedelic-assisted therapy, drawing on practices both ancient and modern to support healing and transformation. This text represents the best practices for maximising the potential of psychedelic-assisted therapy: how to create safer, more therapeutic experiences for those pursuing greater wellbeing and expansion.
