The body knows how to heal itself. We trust the client's ability to align with the medicine, to access their own innate intelligence, and naturally move in a direction of healing. At Sky Medicine we use a contemplative, inner-directive therapeutic approach. We’re here to facilitate your journey, not to guide it. We believe that you are the expert in the room when it comes to your own healing process.
We take great care not to define or limit trauma to the events that happened in one's past. Trauma is the body's intelligent response to keep us safe--but it doesn't have to be a diagnosis or a life sentence. If not resolved, trauma can disconnect us from the present moment. This reunion takes place in the now, and seeks its connection in the body.
“Safety is not the absence of threat, but the presence of connection.”
-Gabor Mate
Talk therapy asks us to recall unresolved experiences, and then translate those feelings into words. Somatic therapy helps us recognize these feelings as physical sensations in the body that are coupled with our experience. We can locate where trauma is held, and our bodies will naturally release that emotion. Somatic therapy uses a variety of methods to move that energy. We use modalities such as Somatic Experiencing, acupuncture, bodywork, breath, movement, and mindfulness techniques to encourage this flow.
Why combine psychedelic medicine with other healing modalities such as psychotherapy, somatic therapy, bodywork, and acupuncture?
We believe every client is unique. A range of different modalities are used to treat the individual from a personal, creative, and comprehensive perspective. We use a holistic approach that considers the entire person. This approach helps to fully integrate the body, mind, emotions, and spirit.
Having the right set and setting is essential to having the right experience. Before the medicine session begins, the journey starts by setting intentions and aspirations. Clients create an environment that is personal. We use curated soundscapes with headphones and eyeshades to help the attention go inward. Building a solid relationship with your therapist before the medicine session engenders a secure therapeutic alliance so that you can feel confident, let go, and trust the medicine.
