What is trip sitting and guiding?
Trip sitting and guiding for medicine journeys is a careful process and balance of holding space for individuals, while also allowing people the autonomy to go on their own journeys.
Plant medicine journeys present unknowns and questions for people. I’d be honored to offer a compassionate and loving presence to ensure maximum safety on medicine journeys.
What will trip sitting entail?
Agreements & Safety
We confirm boundaries, confidentiality, and an emergency plan before starting.
Setting the Space
We set the space to ensure a comfortable and safe environment with water, snacks, and restroom access. We open the container to create a spiritually safe space.
Holding Space
My role is non-directive: I listen, witness, and help you feel safe while you explore. I remain sober, grounded, and attentive the entire time.
I may offer gentle guidance, like grounding prompts, breath cues, or music adjustments if requested.
Note-Taking
With your consent, I keep notes to capture important moments.
These notes are yours afterward to support your integration process.
Safety Monitoring
I quietly track comfort, hydration, orientation, and general well-being.
Closing the Session
When you’re ready, we allow time for grounding—hydration, rest, and quiet reflection.
I review key moments with you and ensure you have safe transport arrangements.
Important note: I do not provide, procure, recommend, dose, or administer any substances. I offer preparation, sober presence, and integration coaching. My services are educational and supportive, not medical, psychiatric, or psychotherapy. If you choose to work with altered states, do so lawfully and in consultation with appropriate licensed professionals.
All trip sitting sessions are paired with 3 preparation sessions and 3 post-journey integration sessions. For specific details about trip sitting availability, location, etc., please inquire below.
