Description
We’re diving into a topic that hasn’t been publicly explored in the psychedelic space yet: the innovative intersection of psychedelic facilitation and the doula model of care. Paije Alexandra West is bringing this forward for us today as an international retreat host, experienced psychedelic facilitator, and trained doula. Paije shares her thoughts on how the principles of doula care can be seamlessly integrated into psychedelic work to create compassionate, supportive, and transformative experiences.Paije educates us on the guiding principles of the doula model, emphasizing the importance of advocacy, mindful presence, and compassionate support in psychedelic facilitation. She discusses the advantages this model offers to Western medicine providers, particularly around how this approach allows Westerners to serve (some) psychedelic medicines without appropriating cultures that don’t belong to us. Paije also shares her personal journey, balancing her roles as a mother and a facilitator, and offers invaluable advice for those considering a path in psychedelic facilitation. Join us as we uncover the potential of the doula model to revolutionize the way we approach psychedelic healing and support.Topics Covered:The unexpected synergy between Iboga and 5-MeO-DMTThe intersection between psychedelics and doula careThe guiding principles of the doula model of careThe Doula Model of Care as an approach to working with psychedelicsThe advantages of using a doula model for Western medicine providersNavigating consensual touch during psychedelic experiencesWhat the path to becoming a doula looks likeWhat it takes to hold a neutral space for othersBalancing psychedelic facilitation with motherhoodWords of wisdom for those considering psychedelic facilitationShow Links:1:1 Coaching with LanaApply nowEpisode 89: The 7 Levels of Consciousness (Spotify | Apple | YouTube)Dosed the Documentary with Mark Howard
