And the line between the two is not always clear—especially when psychological or energetic safety is involved.Topics Covered: Why fear is natural (and even healthy) when approaching psychedelic workHow danger shows up in the psychedelic space—from unsafe facilitators to inadequate screeningClear examples of fear vs. danger in ceremony settingsWhy mistaking one for the other could cost you transformation—or your safetyHow prep coaching can help you work with fear and protect yourself from dangerSupport the show and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠become a subscriber⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for just $4.99/mo!As a subscriber, enjoy ad free and intro free episodes, early access to new episodes + a monthly bonus podcast.Explore Coaching with Lana:Iboga Integration & Prep Coaching⁠⁠⁠ (NEW-now enrolling)Psychedelically Informed Life Coaching⁠⁠⁠ (6 Month Program)Stay Connected to Modern Psychedelics:Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@modernpsychedelics⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠Modern Psychedelics YouTube⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠www.modernpsychedelics.net⁠⁠⁠Substack: The Healthy Ego⁠⁠Free Resources:FREE Iboga Preparation Guide⁠FREE Set Better Goals⁠FREE Integration Journal ⁠FREE Intention Setting Journal⁠FREE Psychedelic Ceremony Checklist⁠FREE Playlists for Psychedelic Journeys + Integration⁠DISCLAIMER: Modern Psychedelics does not endorse or support the illegal consumption of any substances.
