Some ideas for how to achieve an ideal mind set for any sacred medicine ceremony or journey, so that you feel relaxed, open, ready, present and aren’t overthinking:
“Lean into the unknown, lean into the uncomfortable stuff, lean into the stuff you’re trying to avoid, lean into the stuff you don’t want to feel. Let yourself feel the question mark and confusion.” – Duncan Trussell
- “surrender to love, acceptance, and presence.” – joey lott
- accept your shamanic role if you have shaman sickness
- always trust the sacred medicine
