High-dose work places real demand on the brain. When the system is depleted, insight struggles to land. Join Paul F. Austin and Daniel Carcillo for a grounded discussion on preparation, discipline, and stability.

Daniel Carcillo spent years inside a nervous system shaped by impact
Professional hockey conditions the body to absorb force while postponing recovery. After leaving the NHL, Daniel faced the lasting effects of traumatic brain injury, depression, and nervous system instability. Understanding the cause brought clarity. Stability came later, once he began working directly with the body through routine, movement, rest, and consistent structure.
High-dose psychedelic experiences place a similarly intense load on the brain. They may be described in psychological or spiritual terms, but the nervous system still does the work of emotional processing and change. When sleep is inconsistent, stress is high, or daily structure is weak, integration often falters. People feel better for a short time, then struggle to maintain what the experience seemed to offer.
This is why preparation and physical readiness make or break psychedelic journeys. In this webinar, Paul F. Austin and Daniel Carcillo will explore how physical readiness and discipline support stability before and after high-dose work.

What You'll Learn:
How Daniel’s experience with recovery reveals why the brain needs physical resilience to handle the intensity of psychedelic work.
Why regular exercise is a mandatory part of preparation, making the brain flexible enough to actually change.
How simple, disciplined habits in sleep and diet create a “safety net” that prevents the emotional crash that often follows a journey.
How to look at a client’s physical health to decide if they are ready for a high-intensity experience, or if they need to build more strength first.
Why focusing on brain health helps you move beyond just “holding space” to delivering safer, more reliable results for your clients.
