“Why do I do what I do, in the way that I do it? With what I have learned and experienced in my life, what do I believe?”
Part 2 - Psychedelic medicines are powerful allies in transformation, and much like anything powerful, need to be approached and handled with attention and care. Preventing harm in psychedelic use is very important to me.
I suggest that if you are considering engaging with psychedelic medicines, that you deeply consider the following ideas. This list is not meant to be fixed or rigid - as there are always risks with any kind of medicine, therapy, or other healing modality, each person must discern the level of risk they find acceptable. This list is intended to bring as many of the potential variables as possible into your awareness, so that you can make informed choices.
After the experience of legally sanctioned psychedelic therapy, many participants are opting to continue their psychedelic journey in the underground. How can you reduce the risk of harm on your journey?
The words and spirit that I bring to share today are an offering.
And so, I humbly make this offering for my Ancestors….
Some of my clients and website visitors have noticed recent changes to my website offerings at Monarch Trancework.
One in particular that I’m being asked about is what I’ve called “Ancestral Animism”. I want to clarify what I mean by Ancestral Animism, and what it entails in terms of sessions with me through Monarch Trancework.
We live in a pharmaceutical culture where we are conditioned into believing that the medicine IS the cure. When we take this mindset into the psychedelic world, it can really cause trouble. I hear on a regular basis about people who have been struggling with depression, or anxiety, or any number of issues who have heard that "psychedelics can help".
Hypnotherapy can help with any issue if there is a component of problematic belief, fear, or habit. Essentially any problem caused by, or rooted in an aspect of mind can be improved if not eliminated through the use of hypnotherapy. Many symptoms that we think of as physical are actually only physical manifestations of issues that are rooted in our deep subconscious mind. Some problems that can be addressed with hypnotherapy are:
Anxiety
Fears and phobias
Insomnia and sleep issues
Stress
Chronic health issues
Smoking cessation
Weight loss
Panic Attacks
Chronic pain
PTSD
Depression
Fibromyalgia
Dental anxiety
OCD
Habit control
Sexual problems
Grief and bereavement
This list is nowhere near exhaustive. If you have an issue or problem that is not listed here and you wonder if hypnotherapy can help, please contact me at Monarch, and ask. I'd be happy to talk to you about it.
