when we are engaged in deep learning.

Step Into the Future of Facilitation

For years, 5MeO-DMT has been called the "sacrament of our time". A medicine capable
of dissolving layers of conditioning and awakening a deeper truth of being and embodiment.

The Embodied Titration Method (ETM) is a somatic-informed and relational approach to 5MeO-DMT,
rooted in safety, slowness, and attunement. It moves away from the high-dose "Full Release" (breakthrough)
model and instead uses finely calibrated, sub-threshold doses in a step-by-step process,
guided by each person's nervous system and moment-to-moment experience.

In this training, we will be learning how to work with low-dose, titrated 5MeO administration in combination with
assisted embodiment and |somatic practices using breath, sound and micro-movement to support participants
in navigating this consent centered titrated process with greater safety, depth, and integration.

Rather than a fixed protocol, this is a living relational field that meets people where they're at. It values presence
over performance, coherence over catharsis, and consent over collapse. In this space of trust and curiosity,
trauma and tension can surface and release gently, without overwhelming the system.

This method not a fixed protocol, it’s a living relational field that meets people where they are. It values
presence over performance, coherence over catharsis, and consent over collapse. In a container of trust and
curiosity, trauma and tension can surface without overwhelming the system.

Through titration, assisted embodiment, and relational tracking, facilitators learn to cultivate real capacity, supporting participants in navigating this consent-centered process with greater safety, depth, and sustainable integration.

This ETM training is not for everyone. It is for those who feel called to stand at the edge of this
unfolding movement: therapist, coaches, guides, and all health practitioners who want to be part of the
emerging wave of facilitators shaping a new, responsible era of 5MeO-DMT practice.
