Essence Medicine Institute
Helping to dissolve some of the fear around what it means to face our mortality.
Our Mission
We aim to be a leading centre of excellence for psycho-spiritual care, with a particular focus on alleviating existential distress and supporting connection, peace and acceptance.
We are dedicated to promoting the benefits of psycho-spiritual care and aim to increase the availability of psycho-spiritual care for all but especially for those with life-threatening illness and health-care workers.
Through providing new ways of care, practices and ceremonies that reconnect us to nature and our essential roots, we believe it is possible to bring forth our own innate healing wisdom.
At Essence Medicine Institute we support the mindful integration of psychedelic assisted therapy into healthcare as legislation changes occur.
Our Vision
We envision a world where individuals are supported to find meaning in their lives through a sense of interconnection with themselves, to others, to nature, and to the unseen or spiritual dimension.
We understand that psycho-spiritual care is crucial in helping to support the entirety of the human experience, including during phases of illness, grief, existential and spiritual distress, and we believe that this can be delivered in a way that is accessible and acceptable to all.
"Curing a disease of the body is not always an option, but healing from the soul level is always possible"
— Ram Dass
