In "Consciousness Medicine," Françoise Bourzat, with the collaboration of healer Kristina Hunter, delves deep into the world of psychedelic therapy, offering a guiding light to those standing on the threshold of expanded consciousness. This seminal work is not just a manual but a voyage into the heart of traditional and contemporary methods that awaken the spirit and heal the psyche. Bourzat, a counselor seasoned in the indigenous Mazatec traditions, alongside Hunter, stitches a rich tapestry of wisdom, drawing from over three decades of personal experience and practice. The book presents an ethical, safe approach to working with entheogens—substances like psilocybin mushrooms, ayahuasca, and LSD, known for their ability to induce profound, life-altering states of consciousness. Beyond merely advocating for these powerful tools of transformation, Bourzat and Hunter lay out a comprehensive model that encompasses preparation, journeying, and integration, ensuring that readers are not just spectators but active participants in their path to healing. "Consciousness Medicine" bridges the ancient with the avant-garde, making accessible the realms of spiritual awakening and self-discovery through a grounded, practical methodology. It stands as an essential resource, promising not only to enlighten those curious about psychedelic therapy but also to enrich the practice of therapists and healing practitioners aiming to facilitate deeper, more meaningful connections and well-being in the lives of those they guide.

Brand-new, but I’m already on my second read. - Tim Ferriss
Part of the guide’s job is to bring the faith by remembering his or her own certainty in the healing potential of the work. Through communicating this sense of faith verbally and energetically, they hold the light that the client might not yet be able to see.
