This manual is authored by Mark Haden (Former Executive Director of MAPS Canada) with significant contributions from many others who are involved with this field\, among them\, Dr. Birgitta Woods\, Lidija Martinovic\, Bradley Foster\, and Dr. Devon Christie. This is a must read for anyone who would like to guide someone through a psychedelic experience. Psychiatrists\, psychologists\, therapists and shamans would all benefit from this important knowledge. \nAmong the many topics covered are: set and setting\, ritualizing the process\, role of the guide\, core competencies of a guide\, trauma resolution skills\, consent\, challenging situations\, red flags/green flags\, group experiences\, dealing with specific behaviours\, integration\, and code of ethics. \nHaving skills in the art of therapy can be helpful in navigating the complex terrain of projection\, transference and countertransference\, which are generally amplified by psychedelics. The development of the future profession of psychedelic psychotherapist/supervisor/guide will need a manual of best practices\, to be used as a frame of reference and this book is offered as a first step in this direction. \nGet your copy today!  If you order NOW\, you can receive and read your book before the event\, and can ask questions of Mark Haden during the Q&A. \nIt is available in both paperback and Kindle versions \nOrder On-Line or visit Banyen Books to pick up your copy in store!

This should be read by all therapists\, physicians and guides who are involved with psychedelic medicines.” \nPaul Stamets: Mycologist\, Author\, Researcher  \nMark Haden’s book “Manual for Psychedelic Guides” is an essential resource for maximizing benefit while minimizing potential for harm in the surging field of psychedelic therapy. \nAs the therapeutic benefits of psychedelics continue to be validated by scientific studies\, this book comes at a critical time. Unprecedented\, Haden’s manual is a map for navigating through psychedelically influenced consciousness. Therapists\, regulators and even end-users can be better prepared to benefit from these profoundly intense internal voyages. Knowing that a therapist is skilled and informed will give confidence to patients that they are in good hands. Therapists in particular can benefit by avoiding the minefields of potential mis-steps which Mark Haden expertly describes. \nThis manual will be known as a milestone as psychedelics come out of the closet into the light of mainstream therapy. \nHighly recommended. I love this book! \n  \nDennis McKenna PhD\, Author\, Researcher \nThose who may feel called to guide patients in psychedelic therapy must an achieve an exceptional level of wisdom\, intelligence\, skill\, insight\, and compassion. Proper guidance is at the crux of psychedelic therapy if these medicines are to be used for maximum benefit; and those who embark on the path of this sacred calling must commit to an arduous discipline; a discipline that requires them to become not only the best therapists that they can be\, but to become the best people they can be. \nThis Manual for Psychedelic Guides written by my friend\, Mark Haden\, himself a therapist and the Executive Director of MAPS Canada\, is the place to start the journey. It is not itself the journey\, but is a map of the path that must be followed\, and in that sense\, it is both invaluable and indispensable. In it you will find all your questions about psychedelic guidance answered\, as well as many questions you never even thought to ask. It’s all here in the pages of this brief and crisply written manual. Start here; it is your first step on a journey that never ends. \nGabor Mate: Physician\, Author \nMark Haden provides a much-needed\, comprehensive\, cogent and detailed manual\, aimed at those who would like help guide safe and effective psychedelic experiences–a primer particularly for therapists and other professionals interested in such work. \nTom Eckert\, MS\, LPC\, Executive Director – Oregon Psilocybin Society \n“Mark Haden has always been ahead of the curve on drug policy\, and his contributions to psychedelic medicine have helped the field progress and gain acceptance.
