Microdosing coaching by Alicia
A microdosing & coaching expert
As one of the first microdosing and psychedelic coaches in Europe, I guide people who want to make use of the many medicinal and healing properties of small doses of psilocybin truffles (microdosing).
People ask me all the time how I got to work in this very intriguing world of psychedelics. This love story began in 2016. It was one of her darkest, though most rewarding, periods of my life. After working for 15 years as a communications advisor, I fell ill and couldn’t function anymore. I didn’t sleep, was depressed, felt numb and was constantly so tired and stressed. I was basically glued to the couch for more than 2 years. Dragging myself along through the day and when I did feel something, it was an unendurable, intense pain. The suffering became so unbearable that I’d rather not exist anymore at some point. The traditional methods like (psycho)therapy didn’t help enough. That was when I stumbled upon these precious plant medicines, as natural psychedelics are sometimes called. I healed myself with the help of mainly psilocybin truffles and ayahuasca from a Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, sleeping disorder and panic attacks.
If you’d like to read more about how I embarked on this journey, I participated in (and won) a writing contest in 2019 with this blog.
My path led me to participateing in countless ceremonies with various psychedelics, and I have thoroughly researched these entheogens in full doses as well as in microdosing form. In addition, I took many courses and workshops in the field of microdosing, psychedelics and coaching.
In 2020 I started my own microdosing coaching practice to guide people in this wonderful world of psychedelics. In the meantime, I have helped hundreds of people through consultations, courses and coaching. As a microdosing expert, I am a frequently invited guest for podcasts and have regular contact with journalists that want to help me on my mission of changing the perception of these substances: psychedelics aren’t merely drugs but serious natural medicines for a lot of people and a catalyst for inner growth. That’s also one of the reasons I have founded the Dutch Facebook group: Plant Spirit Medicijnen (more than 1300 members).
I am specialized in depression, burnout and PTSD. But also here for people who simply want to be more productive, creative, effective and focused. Or are curious how truffles can help them to be the better version of themselves. I make use of the principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) that encourages people to embrace their thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or feeling guilty for them. It’s proven that it offers a very effective treatment and that ACT and psychedelics are a magic combination.
If people offer me a glimpse into their head, heart and soul, that’s the greatest gift anyone can give me. In exchange for this openness, I offer you a loving mirror to look into. And I help you integrate the insights obtained through the truffles in a careful and safe way.
“If you dare to open up, I promise you the truffles will reward you in enjoying this worlds beauty even more.”
With love,
Alicia
