June 2022 | Central Coast, CA – EntheoMedicine.org, a Santa Barbara based community organization, has transformed from producing live educational events to focusing on providing hotline support and practical advice for those wishing to experience facilitated Entheogenic and psychedelic medicine for healing and spiritual growth. Individuals can now go to PsychedelicHotline.org to schedule a complimentary confidential 15-minute call to assess if they are a good fit for professionally facilitated psychedelic sessions.

“After Covid paused our live educational events, I started receiving inquiries from people locally and around the world on how they should approach using entheogens and psychedelics for healing.” Says Entheomedicine.org Founder Jacqueline Lopez. “To make it easier to reach out to me directly I launched the PsychedelicHotline.org which gives them instant access to my calendar to schedule their 15-minute call.” continues Lopez.

Regardless of a person’s interest in using psychedelics, mitigating risk is crucial. During a typical free psychedelic support call, individuals share what they are trying to achieve. The conversation can include what to expect, considerations for solo versus facilitated journeys, and how to increase safety around the use of psychedelic substances. It also typically includes tips for best practices, and ways to get support if a challenging experience arises.

“We are clear about the potential downside, if someone is simply interested in finding substances for their own use, I remind them that is not the purpose of the Hotline and the call is politely concluded”.

Lopez went on to say that integration is the most important phase of the journey. "Incorporating the insights from a psychedelic event into one’s life requires effort and intention to process the experience through reflection, writing, reading, artistic pursuits, and other means of exploration to clarify the insights and turn them into action.

One of the beneficiaries, Davis shares his experience “My session was wonderful - both the medicine and connecting with the medicine circle deeply. Thank you so much for connecting us. I’m excited to continue this journey.” EntheoMedicine.org has other testimonials available and has been providing guidance and advice since 2018.

EntheoMedicine is the first organization of its kind supporting psychedelic communities to share the science-based therapeutic and spiritual benefits of entheogens and psychedelics.
