Plant Medicine Ceremonies + Consent
*
Please note that certain drugs and medications have been found not to be compatible with the Amazonian plant medicine optionally offered at this retreat.
It is important that you know the following information so that you can be educated regarding contraindications in your decision as to whether or not to participate in these ceremonies.
It is NOT safe to work with this plant medicine if you take any of the following drugs or medications.
-Any medication that contains Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (MAOI's)
-SSRI's (any Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor)
-SNRI's (Serotonin-Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors)
-Antihypertensives (high blood pressure medication)
-Appetite suppressants (diet pills)
-Medicine for asthma, bronchitis, or other breathing problems; antihistamines, medicines for colds, sinus problems, hay fever, or allergies
-CNS (Central Nervous System) depressants
-Antipsychotics
-Barbituates
-Any Illicit Drugs
We do suggest a minimum one week abstinence from alcohol and/or marijuana in preparation for ceremonies as well.
It is essential to stop taking the above substances, and give your system sufficient time to remove them from the body (a minimum of 3 months), before you begin our retreat:
Please consult your doctor for guidance on a plan to taper. You should certainly NOT suddenly stop taking prescribed medications (including antidepressants) without consulting your doctor.
It is also not safe to work with this plant medicine if you have any of the following health conditions.
-You are pregnant
-You have a heart condition or chronic high blood pressure
-You have a history of severe psychological problems, including bipolar mood disorder, mania, psychosis, schizophrenia, or depersonalization
Also, if you have a close / strong family history of severe mental illness, such as bipolar mood disorder, schizophrenia, or depersonalization, it is possible (although highly unlikely) that this plant medicine can unmask such symptoms in predisposed individuals. People with this family history or personal history are advised not to partake in plant medicine ceremonies. Please refer to the criteria below to make sure you:
1) have no direct history of major issues of bipolar, psychosis, or depersonalization
2) that you have not previously taken any medication for these conditions
3) are not currently taking any psychiatric medications
Provided none of these three points are applicable, the facilitator may be able to accommodate you in the plant medicine ceremonies. However, please inform us if you have any history of severe mental illness in your family, and of any medications you are currently taking, as it is crucial for your safety and your appropriateness will be assessed on an individual basis.
