Stepping into Psychedelics Part 2 – Eshu Martin

Stepping into Psychedelics Part 2 – Eshu Martin

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.

Ancestral Animism - Eshu Martin

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.

Psychedelics - Considering Set, Setting, and Context

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".

You Aren’t Broken! - Eshu Martin

Nothing burns my biscuits more than when a new client comes for a consultation and I am informed that they have been told by a previous therapist/counsellor/practitioner that they are “resistant”, or “beyond help”, or that they “don’t really want to get better”.

If you have gone for help to a so called “professional” and they have said any variation of this to you, I want you to know this… you are not the problem. You are not broken. Their failure to help you is their failure - not yours.
