Introductions:
- Have you been feeling called to have a high dose trip soon?
- What draws you to a high dose psychedelic experiences versus other forms of self-exploration or therapy?
- Jades intro: Revelations feel very authentic to me and my internal dialogue rather than potentially being influenced by an outside source. I think it’s a very sacred form of self exploration and I think that’s why I’m very cautious about who I trip around or what I’m mentally consuming at the time because I know that period of programming is very sensitive for me and I want to protect it. I do think there’s a bit of control bakes into that mix but that’s my ritual when it comes to dosing in general.
Questions:
- What led you to explore high dose psychedelics, and what were your expectations or apprehensions before your first experience?
- How do you prepare mentally and emotionally for a high dose psychedelic experience, and what advice would you give to someone considering it for the first time? Can you share any rituals or practices you incorporate into your high dose experiences to enhance their meaning and value?
- Can you describe a specific insight or realization that you gained during a high dose trip that has had a lasting impact on your life? In what ways has your perception of reality, consciousness, or interconnectedness evolved through high dose psychedelic journeys?
- Have you ever encountered challenging or difficult moments during a high dose trip, and how did you navigate them?
- How do you integrate the insights and lessons from high dose trips into your daily life, and what benefits have you noticed from this integration?
