They explore the concept of trauma and how it relates to the concept of the inner child, emphasizing that trauma is not limited to extreme experiences but can also result from emotional neglect and loneliness. They explain how psychedelic sessions can bring up childhood memories and emotions, and how practitioners guide participants gently through the process of healing and integration. They discuss the power of imagination and inner child work, as well as the role of guidance in regulating emotions.TakeawaysGuiding plays a crucial role in facilitating deep and transformative psychedelic experiences.Human connection is essential in psychedelic journeys, and having a guide can provide emotional support and guidance.Guided journeys can be healing, particularly for individuals with childhood trauma, as they provide an opportunity for resolution and integration.Inner child work, facilitated by a guide, can help regulate emotions and lead to personal growth and transformation.Chapters00:00Introduction00:30Background and Introduction to Inner Child Work and Psychedelic Therapy09:31Inner Child Work in Psychedelic Sessions13:41The Role of the Practitioner in Inner Child Work16:34Bringing Up Childhood Memories in Psychedelic Journeys20:30Emotional Neglect and Loneliness as Trauma23:13Working Through Resistance in Inner Child Work24:07The Importance of Guided Journeys in Psychedelic Therapy25:31The Role of Guiding in Psychedelic Journeys26:12Pioneers in Guided Psychedelic Therapy26:27The Healing Power of Guided Journeys27:41The Importance of Human Connection in Psychedelic Experiences28:14The Transformative Impact of Guided Journeys29:30The Connection Between Psilocybin and Human Connection30:39Client Experience: Healing Childhood Trauma35:03The Power of Imagination and Inner Child Work36:14The Role of Guiding in Regulating Emotions46:53The Importance of Inner Child Work in Parenting47:11Compassion as a Teacher in Regulating Emotions48:23The Continuation of Inner Child Work after Psychedelic ExperiencesConnect with us:WebsiteInstagramTiktokYoutubeFacebook Hosted on Acast.
