Tripsitting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tripsitting is often seen as something easy, however, when using psychedelics, it is always something that cannot be predicted. Preparing yourself well is always useful, but can you be prepared for everything? This blog is about my role as a tripsitter during a psychedelic trip with five Romanian friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tripsitting or trip coaching after all?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Typically, my work consists more of trip coaching than trip sitting. With trip coaching, there is usually a therapeutic goal, whereas with trip sitting, it seems to be more for pleasure or curiosity. Even with assignments requested as trip sitting, situations arise that can be labelled as therapy. Especially during deeper trips, situations arise that can cause personal growth because a connection can be made with the subconscious. Right there in the subconscious often lie answers to questions you didn't know you had beforehand. This also happened with the group last Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tripsitting session in Amsterdam<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of my Romanian friends asked me to act as a trip sitter. He had booked a hotel in the centre of Amsterdam and wanted to make his hotel room available for the group with the intention of having fun and as a kind of introduction to getting to know psychedelics. Personally, I prefer to use psychedelics as a therapeutic tool, but I agreed anyway to help this group. So last Saturday was the day, and I travelled to the Krasnapolsky hotel in Amsterdam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From trip-sitting to ceremony<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We started with a low dose of psilocybine and during the onset phase I was able to keep everyone entertained by bringing games along. After only about an hour, the group nevertheless wanted to experience the ceremony more the way I usually organise it. This was because no one was afraid anymore of what might potentially happen. So the tension was gone. We then slightly increased the dose of psilocybine. Ultimately, the trip thus changed from something that was done for fun into something deeper involving terms such as the urge for perfection and old pains. In this way, the trip still ended up having a therapeutic effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group dynamics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The dynamics of the group this blog is about were very good. This created peace of mind and trust, and the space to be able to be who you are. If you ever want to undergo a truffle ceremony yourself, put your own group together and keep it small. We at triptherapie.nl can advise and guide you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our tripsitter services<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We always try to do more than just tripsitting. If a specific goal needs to be worked on, such as depression, anxiety or other complaints, we can also create a personal plan with support before, during and after the trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First advice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Please note that you must not use SSRIs, MAOIs, lithium, antipsychotics, antidepressants or tramadol in combination with psychedelics. Also, if you have a sensitivity to psychosis, it is better not to do a psychedelic trip. Complete our intake form to check whether it is advisable for you to use psychedelics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
