Simon Yugler: Psychedelics and the Soul
Simon Yugler is a depth psychotherapist, psychedelic educator, and author of Psychedelics and the Soul: A Mythic Guide to Psychedelic Healing, Depth Psychology, and Cultural Repair (North Atlantic Books, 2024). With a master's in depth counseling psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute, he's taught in leading psychedelic training programs including CIIS, Naropa University, and Inner Trek.
Drawing from Jungian psychology, mythology, and Internal Family Systems, Simon helps facilitators, therapists, and healers reconnect to the liminal wilds of the soul. His work is shaped by years of anthropological research and learning from Indigenous traditions around the world, including the Shipibo ayahuasca lineage and the Native American Church.
We explore:
· Simon's connection to Australia
· Indigenous perspectives in psychedelics,
· Psychedelic culture in Oregon
· Depth psychology and psychedelics
· Simons new book psychedelics and the soul
· Training in psychedelic therapy and its challenges
· Therapist burnout
· Cultural healing and psychedelics
