Protocol -

Checklist for your Guided Journey 

 Before:

1.       Do you feel safe and comfortable with your guide? Have you signed the letter of consent with your guide.

2.       Review medications.

3.       Take time to meditate, spend time in nature, pray, asking if this is the right time to journey.

4.       Set clear intentions, have them hand-written down, discuss them with guide, bring them to your journey.

5.       Make sure you have someone to drop you off and pick you up.

6.       Follow day-of protocol: medicine, meals, mantra.

7.       Make sure your day of and your day after are free from any disturbances or conflicts.

8.       Wear comfortable clothes, bring a pillow and blanket if desired (they will be available, as well).

9.       Arrive on time, bring water, hand-written intentions.

10.   Turn off/remove all electronics.

11.   Review safety factors, including guide protocol, restroom, nausea, etc.

12.   There will be candles, lighting, and music. At any point during your experience, please let your guide know if any of these are bothersome or need to be removed or changed.

13.   Surrender, trust, be curious, focus on your intentions.

During:

1.       Stages of journey:

a.       Ascent – taking off, smooth or bumpy, surrender. This is where the senses are engaged, and shadows, blocks, challenges may be observed.

                                                               i.      If there is a block, sit with it, allow the feelings to wash over you, feel so you can heal. Your guide is here for you.

                                                             ii.      Keep surrendering to the experience. Be curious.

b.       Trip – you may experience a narrative/story, encounter animals, spirits, guides, higher power, or you may experience a varied amount of disjointedness, or you may experience “nothing.” Regardless, this is what you need, and it will make sense. You will receive insights and downloads about your life and your intentions.

                                                               i.      Music will sound different. Images may be different. If you are expecting sensory overload, an eye mask may be beneficial.

                                                             ii.      At any time if you need to use the restroom, do so. This will not change your experience.

                                                            iii.      You can communicate with your experience and encounters. Ask questions, clarify intentions, make affirmations. Go through doors, surrender.

c.       Landing – You’ve experienced depth, you may now feel as if your experience is over,  you may feel strong emotions (relief, elation, teary, laughter, love).

                                                               i.      You’ve reached the peak, now your are landing and you are in the afterglow.

                                                             ii.      This period will remain with you for quite some time.

                                                            iii.      When your guide senses that you are at the beginning of this stage, your person  will be contacted.

d.       Arrival – Your person will arrive to pick you up.

                                                               i.      Protocol will be reviewed with your guide, including avoiding electronics, no major decisions, or driving for 24 hours, etc.

                                                             ii.      You do not want this time to be interrupted, so prepare to be emotional and trust your own inner-guide as to how to proceed with these next few hours.

                                                            iii.      Stay hydrated.

                                                            iv.      You may be hungry, eat joyfully. You may be tired, rest in peace. You may be chatty, do so safely.

After:

1.       You may have a headache, be dizzy, sleepy, or in a haze for the next 12 or so hours. This is normal, which is why this time-after is so very important.

2.       Continue to avoid electronics.

3.       Set up a time for your integration with your guide.

4.       You may think you want to journal, draw, dance, create, in order to not forget your experience. You will not forget. Savor this time and allow your soul to process.

5.       Align your actions with your experience. What did you learn, do you need to share this – be cautious here and only share with trusted people who are aware of your experience.

6.       Your guide will get their notes to you within 12 hours after your experience.

7.       You will not lose this frequency or these feelings. You may drop back into your “normal” routine, yet you will still process for quite some time.

8.       Give thanks and gratitude for your experience and continue to seek out what your experience has to give you.

9.       Take action. Get back into life and keep your senses engaged as to what your new world has to teach you.

10.   Enjoy your integration time and stay in touch with your guide.

11.   Be patient, change takes time.
