About the Author FRANÇOISE Bourzat is a Consciousness guide and counselor.
Consciousness Medicine delivers a coherent map for navigating nonordinary States of consciousness, offering an invaluable contribution to the field of Healing and transformation.
Drawing from more than thirty years of experience, Bourzat\'s skillful and heartfelt approach presents the therapeutic application of Expanded states, without divorcing them from their traditional contexts.
But how do we ensure that we\'re approaching them effectively? Fran oise Bourzat--a counselor and experienced guide with sanctioned training in the Mazatec and other Indigenous traditions--and healer Kristina Hunter introduce a holistic model focusing on the threefold process of preparation, journey, and integration.
Psilocybin mushrooms, ayahuasca, and LSD--as well as other time-tested techniques with the power to shift Consciousness such as drumming, meditation, and vision quests--are now being recognized as potent catalysts for change and healing.
And it\'s no wonder: despite having access to the latest wellness trends and advances in technology, we\'re no healthier, happier, or more meaningfully connected.
