Trainings

The curriculum.

Three tracks, built to be taken in order. Each one stands alone if it is the only one you need.

Every track is educational. Coursework covers science, history, risk, ethics, and integration. Nothing in these programs is a licence, a medical qualification, or legal permission to do anything. What you do with the education is yours to answer for.
Track one

Foundations in 5-MeO-DMT

Eight modules, online, at your own pace. Roughly 20 hours of material.

This is the ground floor. It is a prerequisite for the in-person intensive, and it is also the right course for someone who simply wants to understand the subject properly before deciding anything.

M 01

The molecule

Structure, natural occurrence, the difference between 5-MeO-DMT and N,N-DMT, and why the phenomenology diverges so sharply.

M 02

Receptor pharmacology

5-HT1A and 5-HT2A binding, why the ratio matters, metabolism, duration, and what is still genuinely unsettled in the literature.

M 03

Bufo alvarius and conservation

The Sonoran Desert toad, its range and its pressure, the ecological case, and the argument for synthetic material.

M 04

History and lineage

Archaeological claims and what actually supports them, the 1980s literature, and the fast, messy growth of the last decade.

M 05

Phenomenology

What people report, how those reports are measured, and the limits of describing a non-dual state in ordinary language.

M 06

Risk, physiology, contraindications

Cardiovascular load, serotonergic drug interactions, psychiatric history, and the adverse events that appear in the case literature.

M 07

Ethics and consent

Power, money, touch, capacity to consent, dual relationships, and what informed consent means when the state itself cannot be fully described in advance.

M 08

Integration

The weeks and months after. Meaning-making, relapse into old patterns, spiritual bypass, and when to refer someone to clinical care.

Track two

Practitioner Training

Thirteen days in the jungle outside Puerto Morelos, Mexico. Small cohort.

The first half is your own work. The second half is study: physiology, screening, ethics, emergency response, and integration practice, taught in a room with people who are doing the same thing.

Prerequisite

Foundations completed

The online track has to be finished before the intensive. The classroom time is worth more when nobody is starting from zero.

Cohort

Twelve students

Capped deliberately. Anything larger stops being a training and starts being a conference.

Assessment

Written and oral

Screening case studies, an ethics viva, and a written integration protocol. You can fail. Some people do.

Days 1–6

Your own work

Before anything else. Preparation, ceremony, rest, and the beginning of your own integration, held by the Tiger Soul team.

Day 7

Rest and reflection

A full day with nothing scheduled. The curriculum resumes when people are ready to think again.

Days 8–9

Physiology and screening

Medical intake, cardiovascular considerations, medication review, and the psychiatric history that changes the answer.

Day 10

Emergency response

Recognising a medical emergency, escalation pathways, local emergency services, and documentation. Taught with a clinician.

Day 11

Ethics intensive

Case-based. Real situations, disputed decisions, and the ones that still do not have a clean answer.

Days 12–13

Integration practice and assessment

Integration frameworks, referral thresholds, scope of competence, and the closing assessment.

Track three

Integration Studies

Ten weeks, live online, one evening a week. Built for clinicians.

Therapists, psychologists, coaches, and clergy increasingly have clients who have had a 5-MeO-DMT experience and do not know what to do with it. This course is for the person sitting across from them.

Weeks 1–3

What actually happened

Enough pharmacology and phenomenology to understand the account your client is giving you, including why it may be hard for them to give it.

Weeks 4–6

Working with the material

Meaning-making without leading, somatic residue, ego reconstitution, and the difference between insight and avoidance.

Weeks 7–8

When it goes badly

Prolonged destabilisation, derealisation, spiritual emergency, and the point at which this becomes a psychiatric referral.

Weeks 9–10

Scope, ethics, documentation

Your own professional boundaries, your regulator, your notes, and the conversations that protect both of you.
