      What we're saying is that not everyones experience is the same with this medicine. Reading into the "hype" around a particular medicine can build expectations about the experience, and your experience might differ. When it comes to 5-MeO, the "hype" is that it's purely a beautiful and blissful experience, when in fact it could be very challenging. There's a wide range of experiences with this medicine and it's important to know that before going into something this profound, and possibly life-changing.

    I agree with you Steve! Canadian too here and I have no trust in our medical system whatsoever. while there are much more complex and nuanced issues that could be brought up, suffice to see how they mismanaged the "pandemic policies" and the death and injury their product caused, or the sweeping amount of tax funded suicide caused by MAID (people need to know MAID kill with agony not peace) or simply look how they profit from all the harmful chemical on tobacco or how they mismanaged the Cannabis grey market and tax dollars. Anyway corporate greed and psychedelic don;t belong together. Can you tell us more or share link to what is the current agenda with bringing 5MeO to the forefront? these guys always taint what they touch. I wish things would stay stewarded organically by the people who care for it and those who resonate with the calling. I can tell you guys are putting a great deal of effort in care in what you do, and it is important to do this substance in a safe manner and have subsequent exposure to conceptual material that deals not only with 5MeO reports but the metaphysics in regards to CESSATION experience and school of thought on consciousness. Finally for any curious reading this, I would highly discourage trying a high dose without a sitter for the simple danger that you COULD shoke on your vomit, which is super easy to avoid if someone is ready to move your neck in case. I'd be interest to discuss more in PM someday!

      @@drydenwatson2314 I don't know of a lethal dose of synthetic 5-Meo, but I'm sure there could be one. The higher-risk thing would be to do a dose of lets say 40mg or something and have an exceptionally dysregulating experience. I don't think 40-50-60 could kill you though. And I'm not sure someone could physically consume more than that in a single inhalation. However for the record, I strongly advise anyone from consuming more than 20-25mg in a single dose, and most people don't ever need to go that high for a full embrace dose. And NEVER do high dose 5-meo without supervision. In fact, I'd never do it without a highly trained facilitator who understands this medicine.

    Hey Tony, I know what you mean in terms of coming out of there and then trying to figure out which books to read, and which practices to put into place in order to best support the integration process. It can be overwhelming. I just wanted to share some things that I found over this past year have really helped me since my journey. Perhaps one of them will end up resonating for you or your wife. Tara Brach - especially using her RAIN method. She has free podcasts and specifically one where she guides/takes you through the process. I read her books and listened to most of her podcasts and found them very helpful. The Core Transformation process, and Wholeness Work by Connirae Andreas. Perhaps you are familiar with those ones if you are part of the Coaching world. They can be very helpful in teaching us how to tap into that peaceful, beautiful place within us that is full of knowing. And working with the old patterns and things that come up that we feel we are ready to transform. Some people really like Joe Dispenzas. I have found some of his talks and meditations helpful too. Best of luck to you both, I trust you will each come upon the people and tools that will best serve you in this next phase. As much as you can, be gentle and patient with yourselves and just trust it will all come together. I am now in a place where I feel life just keeps getting better and more joyful. 🙏💗

    True, experiencing non-duality with a high dose of 5-meo-dmt is unimaginably profound. If you are on the intellectual side like me: - get to know about Carl Jung and the concepts of Self and Ego, - Trough meditation or other means, practice letting go As Alan Watts said: “You're under no obligation to be the same person you were 5 minutes ago.” - read about non-duality (ie: Baruch Spinoza in western philosophy, eastern philosophy such as Buddhism and Advaita Vedanta)

    "Death is not the end" - There is an urge to frame, to conceptualize, to Judge. Contemplate death, keep it as a constant companion until one day you might be lucky enough to notice - non-existence. Then you can let it be, realizing Death is a blank page in an imaginary book of dreams. To skip the page, fearful of what you are, is to be reborn. To cease, to recognize yourself as the stuff of dreams and dissolve, is the gift.

    Does a facilitator really need to have a cognitive framework that they use to interpret the 5-MeO experience or “what’s happening in this world”? That’s all just mental story telling, isn’t it? Also, since a person’s ideas about these things often change after experiencing this medicine, why should it matter whether they align with a facilitator’s beforehand?

    Yes to what you’re describing here. Experiencing a post-journey tightening of the ego’s grip, an insistent loop of negative thoughts about “my” life. And this insidious ego steals from me any ability to do anything to improve my situation. It’s unbearable. The only way to dissolve this madness, is to trick myself by doing something very small, simple and easy. Simply lying down and making myself do slow deep conscious rhythmic breathing. In for 4, hold for 4, out for 4, hold for 4, repeat. It works. Surrender to the breath. Focus on the rhythm. This simple thing quietens and liberates the mind.

    @Soulbird22 2 месяца назад

    In the spirit of a constructive dialogue, I offer my reflection after watching the video a number of times. I can appreciate your perspective on the use of 5-MeO-DMT, highlighting potential risks associated with quick and unintegrated experiences with the substance, often in what they describe as a "drive-by" style, where individuals don't have sufficient preparation or integration. The video's message seems to push for a more structured, prolonged, and facilitated experience, particularly in the context of an expensive retreat environment, while subtly criticizing less extensive and possibly less costly approaches. Here’s my breakdown of the situation: The message is both valid and concerning. On the one hand, they’re right to emphasize the importance of preparation, integration, and a supportive environment, especially when dealing with a powerful substance like 5-MeO-DMT. Quick, poorly integrated experiences can indeed lead to psychological distress, unresolved trauma, or confusion. However, it’s important that this cautionary advice doesn’t morph into fear-mongering, creating the impression that only high-cost retreats are “safe” or “valid” spaces for using these medicines. There seems to be an underlying marketing tactic here that uses a passive-aggressive tone-perhaps to instill fear about alternative (often cheaper) methods-while promoting their retreat as the ideal or only safe environment. This approach can create a false sense of exclusivity, where those without financial means may feel discouraged from seeking alternative avenues for healing or experiencing the medicine. Healing, especially with psychedelics, is not one-size-fits-all. While the structure and support of a retreat might be invaluable for some people, others may have profound and successful experiences in less formal settings, guided by trusted individuals or in more accessible formats. The affordability and accessibility of these experiences should not be gatekept, though the need for preparation and integration is universal.

    • @enfoldinstitute
      @enfoldinstitute 2 месяца назад

      Thanks for your thoughtful message. This is indeed a tricky situation. With certain psychedelics like mushrooms, we believe that a large percentage of the population (with nuances of course) could and should have very low-barrier access and can safely work with these medicines with friends, or in peer-led containers. When it comes to 5-MeO, we liken the experience to brain surgery, except that it's on the soul and the nervous system. I don't think everyone should be offering brain surgery. I don't think there should be brain surgery offered without proper preparation and aftercare. The risks outweigh the benefits. I get that on the flip side, accessibility is a challenging issue. I am concerned about the amount of people accessing 5-Meo in Tulum for $100. I do think that is incredibly high-risk. Besides the dysregulation, the rates of sexual assault and other abusive conditions are awful. We're in a position where we hear from people all the time about these experiences and how they have negatively impacted peoples lives. It's tough. I also know about many more experienced practitioners that are mid-range cost and refuse to offer any integration support. I personally question the ethics of that, but also understand the complexity of managing your time and energy with limited resources. In general, I think people need to understand that the stronger the medicine, the more preparation and support they should have in place. You never know when 5 is going to completely flip your world upside down. I spoke with a very advanced spiritual practitioner who spent over a year trying to recover from a drive-by five experience. He had to take a leave of absence from his work, and his entire life and health was disrupted. This type of experience is not rare. I wonder whether people could focus on less risky substances if they don't have the means to access proper support. And "the means" also includes what you mention: "less formal settings, guided by trusted individuals." Many people don't have access to such a thing. It's also a privilege to have a community of that has experience and knowledge in these areas. The majority of people out there have no idea how to find or assess the safety of practitioners out there. With time, the general public will become more educated and there will be a better framework of support resources (which is why we invest in making all this content). 5-MeO is still a very new medicine and should be treated with extreme caution and reverence. I completely agree with your last statement. There is no one-size fits all. There are many seasoned psychonaughts and spiritual seekers that don't need the amount of support we offer. I agree the accessibility of these experiences should not be gatekept as you mention. The reason we invest in all these videos and the other support content on our website etc (all free) is to support folks having less-supported experiences. This is part of our contribution to harm-reduction along with the research we're doing and the protocols we're developing that will eventually become public.We also work to create accessibility through scholarships and other means. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate the considerate dialogue. Blessings 🙏

    After 5-meo-dmt, even though I don't often meditate, if I did, for weeks afterwards I would almost go back to the peak unity experience which scared me. The original experience was actually traumatic as I just wasn't ready physiologically or psychologically to let go to that degree. Now a few years later I have started to meditate again and the same thing is happening. It seems this 'after effect' is unusual and I *really* blasted myself open. I'm not sure what to do about it, other than try to get over the fear of dissolution somehow.

    The first time I tried 5MEO I took more than I probably should have but I overall enjoyed the experience and felt like I gained some amount appreciation from it. I took 3 big hits, held each about 8 or so seconds, laid back, and let the experience happen. I consciously remember all of it and it's the only psychedelic that has let me experience a degree of ego death - something I am normally resistant to. The second time I tried 5MEO, about a week after the first, I made a serious mistake. For one, I took about 2.5 grams of shrooms about 90 minutes before hand. I often do this with normal DMT since I find it lowers the breakthrough threshold, slightly calms the chaotic energy of the DMT experience, and also prolongs the duration while making me feel more conscious and aware of the minutiae and details of the trip. With 5MEO it did largely the same thing. Having some shrooms in my system when I did 5MEO was wonderful and is genuinely one of the most blissful and euphoric experiences in my life. The visuals I got on the shrooms + 5MEO combo are some of the most beautiful I have ever seen in my entire life, which is incredible since they largely lacked form or shape. I don't regret doing this and I very much going to make a ritual of this - albeit one not to do often. But. I did not know about 5MEO reactivations or about the lingering side effects that it can have, as normal DMT does not have these side effects. I also did a lot more 5MEO. I did three cycles of three hits of 5MEO, taking five or so minutes after each experience ended to access my mental state and safety before redosing for the next. In total this would have been nine hits of 5MEO over about thirty minutes. But the effects of the 5MEO lasted much longer than thirty minutes. If a normal 5MEO trip has an intensity of 100%, after about an hour after I had taken my last hit, it felt like the 5MEO was still at around 10% intensity. It's like I was stuck in a minor 5MEO experience that just wouldn't end. I couldn't sleep and while lying down and trying to relax and meditate I would find myself drawn back into 5MEO reactivations at about 70% intensity (which I did not know about so it freaked me out as I had no idea what was happening). I also made the mistake of doing this at around 5PM. Five hours after my last hit I wanted to go to sleep and I could not. It took 14 hours for that lingering 10% 5MEO trip to gradually reduce in intensity to about 2% such that I could fall asleep at all. I would continue to be wakened by 5MEO reactivations until about 18 hours after the trip, and I still noticed lingering visual phenomena and effects for a few days after. That was, by far, the worst psychedelic experience of my life. I was genuinely afraid that I had fried my brain and was never going to be able to sleep again. I was earnestly worried that I would never feel normal because what was supposed to be a 10 minute trip ended up lingering for almost an entire day. It made me take a full, two-week break from any psychedelics whatsoever and when I went back into it I did so carefully and gradually. Despite that, I actually really appreciate 5MEO. I don't know what it is about me but I don't think I've ever had a "bad trip" and rarely do I experience what people describe as ego death. The highest dose I've tried of shrooms was 13 grams in one dose after a two break to reset tolerance, and as wild and insane as that experience was I remained in good control of myself and was self-aware of myself. There's a certain, "to control your trip you must let go of control," mindset I think I find easy to adopt. Part of the reason I wanted to try 5MEO is that I was worried that I was starting to not respect these substances. I've seen people have horrible trips and experience complete self-dissolution. I respect these substances a great deal and do put in work both before and after my trips to ensure I have recovered and integrated them, but I wanted to experience a challenging trip for no other reason than I wanted to know what they were like. If I didn't, I was worried my respect for these substances would fade over time. The actual 5MEO experience did not change this. 5MEO is intense and it really does make you feel the boundaries of your personal self-dissolve. But the immediate effects of the trip were largely positive - terrifying, but beautiful. What I appreciate more than the trip itself is actually that horrible 18 hours afterward. It's the first time I've taken a psychedelic and finally at long last been personally humbled. I still use 5MEO - though I absolutely no more than once per day, three days at max in a row, with a break of several weeks if not months between. If I rejected it wholly after my bad experience then I would have gained nothing from it. But I respect it and other psychedelics so much more now. When I do use 5MEO, I go into it after a period of self-reflection and preparation, and I take it in the mornings so I have time to let these lingering reactivations fade before I sleep later that night. Like with all psychedelics, if you can, the best way to recover from a bad experience is to see if you can learn something from it. Ideally though, you should be better than I was, and try as much as you can not to have a bad experience to begin with.

    I don't think I often see 5MEO described as a purely blissful experience, but it is a very good idea to make sure people be aware that even more so than all other psychedelics, 5MEO must be respected and approached with caution. A bad trip on any other psychedelic (shrooms, LSD, N,N DMT, etc) can be unpleasant, but I think the odds of people genuinely being harmed by them are enormously low even after horrible trips. 5MEO on the other hand... yeah I think it has more potential for harm mentally, physically, and if you buy into it spiritually. The sheer sense of self-dissolution on 5MEO can be exhilarating and and terrifying at once. It feels like your entire sense of self and your perception of all existence gets shattered into infinite fractal pieces that meld together into a single whole. You can feel a profound connection with the universe and with eternity but also a sense of horrible emptiness and dread. The euphoria I feel taking 5MEO is unmatched by anything else but no 5MEO experience has been without its sheer and panic and fear. You cannot get one without the other. I do think that 5MEO is an incredible substance, and I think experience, confident, and humble psychonauts can benefit from it immensely. Integrating 5MEO experiences has (by my perception, to which it is possible that everything I say is complete funk) let me move on from incredible hardships. It's like it resets your personal held values and beliefs to nothing and then lets you pick and choose what things you want or don't want to continue believing in. Just don't fall into the trap of having 5MEO dissolve away your the values and believes in your life that you normally find appreciation in.
