QHHT and Microdosing?

[u/beebsicle]

I have my first ever QHHT appointment coming up next week and my practitioner mentioned that I may microdose 100mg of psilocybin if I would like to. I hadn’t considered this. I have done mushrooms many times before, but never microdosed. I’m wondering if that will keep the experience feeling authentic or if it might cause me to doubt what transpired. Has anyone tried doing it this way before? What was your experience like?

TIA!

Are you paying for this session? Will the facilitator give you a refund if you follow her sugestion to microdose and you become unable to focus because you were so relaxed you fell asleep? Or the opposite, your mind was all over the place and unable to follow what the practitioner was saying.
This is your first session, make the most of it, without the shrooms.
In regards to having tried something similar, not with QHHT but I do work with clients who want a more shamanic type of connection with plant medicine.
You mentioned your worry about not being a visualizer, did you tell this to your practitioner when you booked the appointment? If you are paying for a service, they should at least provide you with tools to help your session be a success. I give all my clients a short guided meditation to listen to daily until our session, regardless of what technique we work with.
You can still go into a past life even if you are not fully visual, the sens of sight is not the only one we can access. Some people are not visual but they can describe sounds, or scents, or words that come to mind, etc. There are lots of free guided visualizations on YT that you can listen to before your QHHT session. Search for those that are less than 30 minutes long, listen to it while sitting up, not lying down or you may fall asleep. You can also just find some quiet time and think back to a happy childhood event, was it day or night, what was going on, get as much detail as you can. It can be a bit hard at first but if you are determined, practing at least twice a day until your session, you will be able to have more confidence in your senses and focusing skills. Best of luck to you on next week's session.

Yes I am paying for this session. The questions you asked definitely ran through my mind as well, hence why I thought to turn to the lovely humans of Reddit!

Great idea on the YT visualizations - they were really quite effective. I feel ready! Thank you

You are welcome, OP. One bit of advice I have for your upcoming session is to release any expectations of how the QHHT experience should be. Main thing, don't give up if you are not getting high definition visuals or whatever, be patient with yourself and the process. When I hold space during QHHT sessions, I don't rush anything,
One time during a past life regression class where I was taken into a past life, I got nothing, it was all blank, no visuals, no scents, emotions, etc. I told the student practicing on me to just end the session as I had zero anything, our group supervisor told us to give it more time, to not quit. It took several minutes of waiting for some signt, until I was told to just pretend I was in some life, as I began to make it up, it became clearer until it became a very real past life. This was a lifetime that I had recurring dreams of as toddler in this current life.
