Training Approach & Certification

TRAINING MISSION

Creating leaders in the field of Relational Somatic Psychedelic Therapy

We believe Relational Somatic Psychedelic Therapy has the potential to radically transform individuals, families and communities.

It is our training mission to bring essential awareness to this emerging field and provide leading education with cutting edge tools and techniques through dynamic learning environments that are safe, experiential and transformational. 

WHAT SETS THIS TRAINING APART?

This training is a radical break from the conventional, outdated, inaccurate theory of psychology. When you understand that humans are not stuck in their psychology, they are stuck in their biology, it completely changes the approach to therapy and, in this new paradigm of understanding, tools are given that work on a deeply transformative level.

Combining Relational Somatic Therapy practices with empathogen assisted trauma resolution therapy, fills the gaps in the field of medicine work as well as maximizes the healing potential of these remarkable medicines. 

OUR APPROACH

The Method. The Medicine. The Magic.

The Method

The Sovereignty Method is a new approach to trauma resolution and relational repair that builds on  the new paradigm of  understanding that humans are stuck in their biology not their psychology. Developed over 25 years of research, practice and application, this innovative Relational Somatic Therapeutic modality provides the tools and cutting edge techniques that are the missing key to embodiment and true healing. 

The Medicine

Psychedelic medicines are a deeply engrained part of most indigenous cultures. These substances have the potential to create ecstatic states, spiritual or mystical experiences and  enhance deep transformational healing. 

There are a wide of medicines however, not all are ideal or appropriate for therapeutic use and trauma resolution.

We have been pioneering working with Chaka (3MMC) since 2016.  This powerful empathogen dramatically increases therapeutic efficacy due to it’s profound ability to enhance interoception, open implicit imprints, inhibit shame, deepen relational attunement, enhance neuroplasticity, increase focus and evoke “clear seeing” – your ability to see reality accurately and discern what’s true.  

The Magic

When you’re no longer run by Sankara – the conditioned habit of patterns of the mind and your childhood survival imprints, you become empowered to make decisions that are rooted in who you truly are and have the ability to envision and create an expanded life of possibility.

Guided by your embodied wisdom, intuition and spirit you become magnetic and your experience of life becomes a magical reflection of the depth of your alignment. 

TRAINING STUCTURE

We have carefully crafted a learning path to support a varied range of healing professionals who are devoted to their own personal growth and greatly enhancing their professional skills and therapeutic results.

The training is focused on practitioners developing relational somatic and psychedelic – assisted therapy skills through online training and virtual live experiential workshops, in-person experiential training, practice and case-based learning, mentorship and personal healing experiences.

The learning path consists of the following three individual core trainings. Each one builds on the education, experience and level of the previous one and must be completed in the order below.
