Caitlin Denae

I offer private or small group transformational medicine journeys in a ceremonial setting to create an intentional, safe and sacred healing space. I provide a grounded co-regulating presence so you can feel safe to inhabit your body and heart - helping you to remember and reconnect with your divinity. Ultimately, you are your highest teacher.Your awareness is your light.

Why plant medicine?

Change your perspective

It's normal to look to our external world for answers. What's revolutionary is turning your gaze inward. You're being called to source your guidance from within - to study the terrain of your inner landscape. To develop a reliable relationship with your soul. The more time you spend connecting with your higherself, the deeper the connection will become and the limiting stories that have been holding you back will begin to peel away.Thoughts create our reality - What we focus on, and the meaning we give it, is what shapes our reality. The first time we think a thought, a new connection in our brain is created. At first its a weak and fragile connection, but if we keep thinking the same thought the thread becomes a rope, the connection gets stronger. The funny thing is, the original thought doesn't need to be true for this to happen. A lot of us are carrying around the strangest stories about ourselves, which can become hurdles in our lives, holding us back from the happiness we deserve.Plant teachers help us zoom out or zoom in as needed, showing us the interconnectedness of everything. They help us respond and act from a place of love and curiosity verses a place of judgement and fear."There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes its so." -William Shakespeare

The magic of

Psilocybin

Learn how to change your mind and connect to your body.Psilocybin is the primary chemical agent behind the psychedelic effects of magic mushrooms. They have been used by humans since the birth of civilization for ritual, religious, medicinal, and recreational reasons all over the globe.The scientific world has studied the benefits of psilocybin since the 1950s and has repeatedly reported positive effects on behavior, cognition, spirituality and consciousness. Promising results have been made in neuroscience, mood and mental disorders, addiction and habit formation.Psychedelics, known for their mind-expanding and often heart-opening qualities, create opportunities for us to zoom out and witness our humanity from a wider perspective—an otherwise tall order for a person contracted by depression, anxiety, addiction and/or traumatic injury. Furthermore, psychedelic medicines can induce powerful mystical experiences or glimpses into realms of the unknown, the contents of which have the potential to initiate the reorganization of our perception of reality and liberate us from past traumas that confine us.

Remembering your essence

What to Expect

A private psychedelic session offers you the opportunity to explore your awareness in a safe and supported environment customized to your needs. It allows me to tune fully in with your process and support you every step of the way.We begin with a call to discuss what is present in your life - what is surfacing and asking for loving attention? After intake and a brief health questionnaire I'll send you thoughtful prompts to help hone in on your intention for the journey. Your intention plays a crucial role. Remembering what brought you to explore and heal in the first place is what centers you.When you arrive I’ll help you settle, ground and get clear. The atmosphere will be calm and serene and you’ll be called to go inward and explore your inner landscape. I may lead you in a guided mediation, do an Oracle card reading to gain more clarity, guide you in a chakra toning practice to assess potential blockages, drum, sing, chant and make different smoke offerings.Through the safe and sacred space we create together, you can allow yourself to dive deep and let go. The actual journey lasts about 4 hours and is an introspective journey on a mattress with an eye mask (optional) and curated music. I will be present at all times, holding space, allowing you to fully immerse yourself into your subconscious and the deeper layers that may be holding you back. These may be presenting in your daily life as limiting behaviors, anxiety, depression or physical pain.I am here to fully support and respect you in your process, to assist you lovingly in any way I can, give guidance or simply hold hands for support. I am fully committed to walk with you every step of the way.After the ceremony, when you have 'returned', I offer a wholesome snack to ground back into the body and get a night's sleep. In the morning, I will greet you with a homemade breakfast and the opportunity to share about your experience. I offer guidance for integration and to assist in understanding the imagery and messages the mushrooms have offered.Expanded states of consciousness often bring insights, teachings and gifts that become practical only as you integrate them into your daily life and translate them into concrete actions. The process of bringing the separate elements you experienced during your journey into your whole self is important.With new awareness and perspective you can begin to acknowledge and nurture the neglected parts of yourself and make peace.
