Set and Setting

Kambo’s got a super magical cocktail of bio-available peptides. While The Frog packs a powerful experience alone, it is truly the ‘set and setting’ that makes the most impact.

When we speak of “set” we’re referring to the mindset and headspace of the person taking the medicine. When we refer to the ‘setting’, it’s the environment and physical logistics of the ceremony, treatment or experience.

I learned the art of ‘set and setting’ by working with psychedelics from such a young age. I realized the times I was sloppy with my preparation, intentions, mindset and logistics, my journeys were greatly affected by such negligence. As I matured with my psychedelic usage, the focus I placed on ‘set and setting’ increased for me, in turn, amplifying the healing and transformative expression of my journey.

I’ve been able to parallel the Mastery developed through psychedelic usage into my work with Kambo and have seen incredible results with myself and with clients. Intelligent medicines do not fuck around, so you shouldn’t either. :-)

Set and setting is essential so consider the following:

  • be mindful and intentional with where you’re at mentally, emotionally and physically,

  • bring focus and awareness to your mindset going into the work

  • be intentional with what you are looking to get out of the work

  • prep responsibly and accordingly

  • make sure you know what you are getting into before you sit

  • take an honest look at why you’re doing what you’re doing

So many varying potentials can unfold with differing '“set and setting” so be sure to dedicate time and energy around this. We offer one on one online prep and integration sessions to anyone needing additional support around this. Don’t hesitate to reach out by setting up an online session to deepen your experience.
