Summary:

In this episode of The Psychedelic Coach Podcast with host Tah, he discusses the critical role safety plays in the healing process. Without a sense of safety, the potential for full healing is limited or nonexistent. The concept of safety is something that is frequently talked about in the Condor Approach, the Psychedelic Informed Coaching program that teaches emotional navigation and communication.

Tah explains that safety is also a nervous system dynamic. When a person doesn't feel safe, their nervous system puts the body into a position where it's on alert, which is not optimal for healing. The immune system gets dialed down when the body is on alert because the body doesn't need to fight off germs if it's trying to defend itself from an immediate, perceived threat.

The body is optimized for healing when it is in a restful state, able to digest food, process information, mobilize proteins to replace damaged cells, and remove deformities. When the body is in this state, it is best equipped to build resilience and prepare for future movements.

Safety is the freedom from hurt, harm, loss, deficit, injury, death, and pain. These are all indicators of violence in some form. Violence is not a good or bad thing, it's just a disruption to the sanctity of one's peace, which can lead to negative health outcomes.

Tah emphasizes that safety is a moment of now thing, whereas security is a projection of safety in the future. Feeling secure about the future takes a person out of the moment of now, which can impede healing.

Creating a sense of safety within oneself is crucial for psychedelic experiences as well. If a person doesn't feel safe, their nervous system will come online to protect, which can result in fight or flight responses.

Overall, this episode stresses the importance of safety in the healing process, and Tah encourages listeners to prioritize creating a sense of safety within themselves to promote optimal healing and resilience.
