Course Overview
The Third Wave's Coaching Certification Program is a six-month-long program that teaches one to become a psychedelic coach. The program aims to revolutionize the coaching paradigm by mindfully integrating psychedelic medicines into a high-performance coaching methodology.
This will allow coaches to create breakthrough results faster and with greater alignment between mind, body, and spirit. The program is for established coaches who want to add psychedelic work to their existing frameworks and new coaches who want to begin a career in psychedelics.
The certification is ideal for coaches committed to helping clients achieve a broad range of non-clinical outcomes, from those working on the forefront of human potential, peak performance, executive training, and leadership development, to those focused on health and wellness, life coaching, spiritual coaching, and beyond.
The program structure includes a range of themes such as:
Setting the stage: A framework for the Third Wave of psychedelics
An overview of the different types of psychedelics and their potential applications
The neuroscience of psychedelics and how they can be used to achieve optimal well-being and peak performance
Techniques for integrating psychedelics into a coaching practice
The ethics and legal considerations of working with psychedelics
Case studies and real-world examples of how psychedelics can be used to transform lives
Hands-on practice and skill-building through workshops and exercises.
