PT533 – Psychedelics in Palliative Care: Screening, Safety Measures, and Experiences With the Divine, with Livi Joy
Manage episode 430838581 series 2476237
Psychedelics in palliative care has become an exciting new framework for people looking to ease anxiety and embrace spirituality, but the concept is not as simple as just providing a substance.
In this episode, Joe interviews Livi Joy: Director of Health and Safety, Existential Palliative Ministry Lead Facilitator, and more at Sacred Garden Community (SGC).
As she screens applicants for SGC (and Beckley Retreats), she talks a lot about the process and the safety measures that are absolutely necessary when using psychedelics in palliative care – especially under the framework of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act. Does the patient have at least one strong support person? Do they need to start or increase therapy? Does their home need to be rearranged due to possible fall risks? How will certain medications muffle their experience? Are they truly physically healthy enough to be able to handle a powerful journey? And also, is the sacrament always necessary?
She discusses:
- How preparation questions for a journey are often in line with preparation for death
- Why it’s important to provide these experiences for people far from the dying process itself
- What Sacred Garden’s core tenant of faith that everyone can have a direct experience of the divine in this lifetime means to her
- Atheism and the complications that arise when discussing spirituality and consciousness: Who’s really in charge?
- How psychedelics can help with understanding and preparing for death, but our culture is too death-phobic too embrace it
