About
What is Entheogenic Alchemy?
Entheogens can be a chemical or plant substance (DMT, LSD, psilocybin, cannabis), ingested to produce a “non ordinary state of consciousness” for religious or spiritual purposes. It comes from the Greek word for, generate "God within."
Spiritual alchemy is an ancient philosophy using the metaphor of turning metals into gold to achieve spiritual transcendence. It's a process of transformation that involves breaking down ego, self-doubt, and any other limiting beliefs to reconnect with one's true essence.
Entheogenic Alchemy is a uniquely sacred psychedelic-inspired meditation and mindfulness practice intent on cultivating transcendence, improving mental health, and understanding the mind by going within ourselves. Communal healing is an important aspect as well.
Why E.A.?
Entheogenic Alchemy includes adapting to suffering by transmuting our ignorance. Cultivating a broader awareness of seeing ourselves interconnected with all beings in the world helps us know we're more than our thoughts and fears.
Cultivating spiritual wellbeing and inner peace through E.A. includes practicing mindfulness, meditation, self-care, and connecting with nature. All of which help reduce stress, foster a sense of purpose, and promote overall wellbeing.
E.A. realizes that entheogens can be our teachers if we allow ourselves to open to their ancient wisdom and understand they are guides for transmuting our ignorance.
Who Is This For?
Entheogenic Alchemy is for anyone who has had deeply profound life changing mystical experiences with psychedelics or entheogens and feels called to cultivate mindfulness and meditation from these sacred spaces. These sacred experiences can then act as an anchor between the material and spiritual in our daily lives. E.A. isn't just for people curious about psychedelics, it is for those who are on a sincere quest for inner transformation. Modern spiritual alchemists realize entheogens are just one path to the mountain peak, and that wellbeing must be sustained with other practices and rituals as well.
Maybe traditional paths to self-improvement aren't addressing your deeper needs? Meditation and mindfulness are ancient practices now scientifically proven to be beneficial for our mental health. When you practice Entheogenic Alchemy, your mental clarity sharpens, bringing emotional balance to your integration and empowerment. After it develops further, you feel a renewed connection to your inner wisdom, which leads to more authentic relationships and creative breakthroughs.
7 Stages
Entheogenic Alchemy is described in 7 stages:
- Calcination: An intense purifying fire of what no longer serves us.
- Dissolution: Observing the positive and negative qualities of ourselves.
- Separation: Embracing the impermanence of our experiences, thoughts, and feelings without trying to control or ruminate on them.
- Conjunction: Harmony between polarities as they stop opposing each other.
- Fermentation: Death of our old self and rebirth to our true essence.
- Distillation: Looking for inner peace in daily life through humor and playfulness.
- Coagulation: Unification of all polarities and our true essence becomes whole.
How Did I Get Here?
Several years ago, I used to live a completely different life. A life full of relentless alcohol and drug abuse. Too many close calls with police. Severe depression. Rampant addiction. Self destruction. Reaching rock bottom. Going deeper than rock bottom. Climbing back up. Getting knocked back down. Holding on. Letting go. Doubting. Believing. Falling off the path. Getting back on the path.
There's no doubt, profound awareness can be initiated and cultivated from our entheogenic journeys. The most lasting impact however, is using this lens of consciousness to cultivate meditation, mindfulness, shadow work, integration, creativity, playfulness, unity & love into what I call Entheogenic Alchemy.
Let me be clear, I do not guide psychedelic experiences. But I can help with post-experience integration and offer tools like humor, mindfulness, and spiritual frameworks that provide clarity, a sense of purpose, emotional balance, and a deeper connection to your authentic self.
I offer group or 1 on 1 guided, mindfully intentional experiences that combine ritual, introspection, and integration practices. This also includes safe and supportive post-entheogenic integration work to decode the symbolism and insights gained. Through these methods, Entheogenic Alchemy creates a personalized process of internal alchemy—transforming pain and disconnection into insight, resilience, and a deep sense of wholeness.
