Burnout

Truffle ceremony and burnout

A truffle ceremony or truffle session is increasingly being used as an aid to resolve conditions such as depression and anxiety-related symptoms. Such a truffle session goes even better with the right preparation, which then responds to the theme of the symptoms. Following the bore-out of recent times, the burn-out is now looming again. At trip therapy, we therefore also organise truffle ceremonies/sessions with an eye for burn-out.

Burnout in brief

Prolonged stress/anxiety activates the adrenal glands for too long. Adrenal exhaustion occurs because too much cortisol has to be released for a long time as a result of: stress, anger, anxiety, etc. Adrenal exhaustion occurs because stress is continuously present. Stress is meant to be able to react quickly in intense situations. The demand is greater than the adrenal glands can produce. Some people have so much tension in their lives for a long time that they develop health problems. Tensions can be caused by many different factors. A characteristic can be that you are facing an impossible task for which you see no solution or that there is a fear hidden in the subconscious. This causes tension and if that lasts too long, your body reacts to it. Prolonged tension, and thus the production of cortisol, is the culprit when it comes to exhaustion of the adrenal glands.

Prevent or cure burnout

The key to the solution is to work on four key points. First, we need to relieve the adrenal glands by reducing stress. Second, we need to replenish the stores of used nutrients. These nutrients can be replenished through nutrition and supplementation. Furthermore, other neurotransmitters can also be imbalanced, making anxiety a more significant factor. Therefore, we also look at imbalances in dopamine, serotonin, GABA, and acetylcholine. Finally, sex hormones can play a role in increased susceptibility to burnout.

The fears in the subconscious mind

The fears and negative patterns in the subconscious that cause you to burn out sooner can be brought to light with psychedelics, allowing us to do something about them as well. Perhaps you have already heard good things about ayahuasca or LSD therapy for burn-out? We mainly use truffles containing psilocybin and psilocin (which are also found in magic mushrooms). Furthermore, psilocybin and psilocin are the least harmful drugs/medicine of all time. With the exception of combining them with certain medications, there is most likely no risk of physical harm from the active ingredients.

Trip therapy procedure overview

Typically, we work with most clients on a schedule that looks like this:

  1. Advice on nutrition, exercise and supplements based on point 1
  2. A period of 1-2 weeks to review progress from point 2
  3. An individual psychedelic session* (Unless a group is additionally beneficial or preferred)
  4. Same-Day Psychedelic Therapy Debriefing
  5. After about 1-2 weeks, another follow-up meeting

Optional with burnout treatments: Relaxing forest walk with tips and tricks to avoid stress through movement and posture.

*During the psychedelic session, in addition to psilocybin, we also utilize aromatherapy, color therapy, carefully selected music, herbs, and stimulating supplements. All of this is tailored to the client and their specific goals.
