Clare Johnson returns to the show and Nick Baker comes on for the first time to dive deep into psychedelic-assisted therapy and the healing properties of plant medicine in group. We cover a lot of ground in this conversation, including: Nick’s path into psychedelic journey work from ER nursing Clare’s path into this work as a licensed psychotherapist What makes a guided journey different than a recreational psychedelic experience The unique magic of group settings versus individually guided journeys The healing power of group integration between and after journeys How to work with the insights that come up during a trip How psychedelics can interrupt the Default Mode Network (or well-worn grooves of thought and behavioral patterns) to expand your identity and consciousness as well as revisit earlier unprocessed experiences with greater insight Demystifying ketamine: why it’s in a psychedelic healing class of its own and how it feels in your body Nick, Clare, and Nadia’s personal experiences with ketamine All about psilocybin, unpacking the dreaded “bad trip,” and how to work in and through any resistance that comes up in a journey How to know whether you’re being called into psychedelic healing work Mentioned on this episode: MycoMeditations in Jamaica Both Clare and Nick offer psychedelic integration in their practices as well as consultation on working with psychedelics in safe and legal settings in the US and abroad.
