WEBINARS, Electives & Continuing Education
Psychedelic Sitters School is a complex ecosystem of trainings, webinars, ongoing classes and community events. We created a new services website, Psychedelic Shine, to integrate all that we have to offer. The fully updated list of different classes and their dates is uploaded there. With that being said, we wanted to provide a summary here of what we have to offer.
Webinars
Psychedelic Sitters School has a library of 75 hours developed over a decade of practice that includes advanced content on Mindfulness-Based Psychedelic Therapy and related specialties. This is a unique program that we are now offering for FREE, as a giveaway, to students who join the school. This material encompasses the material of the previous iterations of this class, levels one through four of Psychedelic Sitters School, and represents a full guide training protocol.
The full list is provided here for informed consent purposes, and these series can be purchased separately on Psychedelic Shine for greater accessibility.
