How it works
Semi-self-paced: you progress at your own pace within each module, accompanied by the group and the trainer.
Each module includes
A main reading with the key concepts, a summary presentation, six self-inquiry questions and a themed forum to share and comment.
A clear rhythm
Each module is worked on over 4 days. Halfway through the course there's a rest day to absorb what you've learned before starting the second block.
Three live gatherings
Welcome session, mid-course session and closing session on Zoom, 90 minutes each, with open questions, group dynamics and reflection.
Resources and support
Bibliography and recommended readings per module, a Q&A forum and individual follow-up. No exams: the assessment is your own process.

We're preparing the dates. People on the waiting list will receive them before anyone else.
How much does it cost?
The conditions for the next edition will be communicated to the waiting list first. Signing up doesn't commit you to anything.
Do I need previous experience with psychedelics?
No. The course is designed both for those with no experience and for those who've already had a journey and want to go deeper.
Does the course provide substances or encourage their use?
No. It's theoretical, reflective training with a harm reduction approach. No substances are provided and their use isn't promoted.
What if I can't keep up the pace?
You can adjust your pace within each module and pick up what's pending. To unlock a module you need to complete the previous one's activities.
Does it replace therapy?
No. It's a space for training and reflection. If you need psychological support, we recommend seeing a health professional.
