Leaders in Mindfulness-Based Psychedelic Therapy and Training since 2012 Medicinal Mindfulness is not only a psychedelic therapy center.
Our team founded and pioneered effective and innovative modalities called Cannabis-Assisted Psychedelic Therapy and Cannabis-Assisted Psychotherapy, and we have been professionally trained in MDMA-Assisted Psychotherapy and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy by leaders in the field. We are now deepening our practice under the broader umbrella of Mindfulness-Based Psychedelic Therapy, a psychedelic therapy practice that is based in self-acceptance, awareness of the present moment, and is transpersonally oriented. The Center for Medicinal Mindfulness has since become an established leader in the emerging field of Psychedelic Therapy. Our practitioners provide a number of services, including Cannabis-Assisted and Ketamine-Assisted Psychedelic Therapies, harm reduction and integration work, individual psychotherapy and large group retreats and training programs. In addition to a six-office psychotherapy suite in Boulder, Colorado, our center provides experiences in private retreat locations and at a large cannabis-friendly private yoga facility just outside the city, all in full compliance of Colorado cannabis law and zoning requirements. We offer outdoor psychedelic therapy sessions as well, in a beautiful and secluded natural area which offers a peaceful and contemplative setting for clients as well as additional safety during COVID-19. We are also an intentional community which promotes safe and intentional medicine use practices for personal and global healing and transformation.

Double tap to help us celebrate!
This week, we gathered for our Psychedelic Therapy & Clinical Cannabis/Ketamine Advanced Practicum and Training Intensive - a 40-hour immersive experience exploring cannabis breathwork and ketamine-assisted psychedelic therapy.
Sixteen students from across North America and the UK joined us in-person at our center in Boulder, Colorado with several more tuning in online. This diverse group included psychiatric nurse practitioners, neurocognitive researchers, licensed therapists, death doulas, HR professionals, yoga teachers, and more.
Accessibility is at the heart of what we do, creating training opportunities for both in-person and online students from a wide range of professional and personal backgrounds. This diversity enriches the learning environment and reflects our belief that psychedelic education should be inclusive, embodied, and grounded in mindfulness.
We’re so proud to celebrate this incredible group of facilitators-in-training as they step forward on their path.
Applications for our next cohort of students close soon and we have training options for you to join us from anywhere in the world. Find the application linked in the comments!

We believe this education should be rooted in mindfulness, integrity, and community.
Every class we teach blends skill development with science, ceremony, and embodiment so you can become a trauma-informed guide who leads with confidence and care.
If you’re ready to learn in a space that values depth and is grounded in real-world experience, we’d love to meet you.
If your call is strong, don’t wait. Applications for our January cohort close on December 1. Find a link to apply in the comments!

Colorado made history with the Natural Medicine Health Act, creating two legal pathways for psiloc-bin: regulated access and supported personal use.

Both programs are grounded in mindfulness, trauma-informed care, and the belief that facilitation is both an art and a vocation.

Do you have strong leadership skills and feel passionate about the potential of psychedelics for personal and global healing?
This movement needs you.
Earlier in life, did you get labeled the Black Sheep of the family, because you just see things differently? Have you found that your ability to see beyond the consensus trance and think outside the box is also exactly what saved you? And did psychedelics help you along the way?
This movement needs you.
Do you identify as an outsider? Are your interests or passions considered unusual or taboo? Do you struggle with not fitting in with your family or other communities you’re ‘supposed’ to resonate with? Do you have unusual gifts that tend to be misunderstood or even pathologized? You are not alone.
This movement needs you.
For the past 13 years, the Center for Medicinal Mindfulness has been committed to pioneering and maintaining best practices in Psychedelic Therapy. After opening the first legal psychedelic plant medicine clinic in the USA, we have navigated some very steep learning curves in a dynamic industry barely out of its infancy.
Surely, we all have sustained doubts about the ongoing success of the psychedelic movement. Succeeding in this field requires tenacity, a brave sensitivity, and a keen attention to the swiftly moving tides of legalization. This movement is either going to make it, or it’s not. There is much to pay attention to in the coming years.
Whoever you are, wherever you are in the world, this movement needs you. It needs your skills, capacities, perspective, and your unique vision and voice.
But remember: a nice vision isn’t enough. Visions are a dime a dozen in this field. We’re here to help you transition from Vision to Vocation. We’re here to help you manifest a heart-centered and financially sustainable career in psychedelics. This world needs your gifts, now more than ever.
Whether you're interested in becoming licensed by the state of Colorado as a Natural Medicine Facilitator, or working in other states and countries as a certified Psychedelic Guide, we have a cohort for you. Your community is here waiting for you, and we've saved you a seat in this sacred circle.

Check out Daniel's recent interview, all about Extended State DMT!
"On this episode Daniel McQueen discusses his journey from underground guide to regulated access work in Colorado, his experiments extending DMT experiences via infusion, his views on psilocybin regulation, and the tensions inherent in commodifying sacred medicines. The conversation delves into scientific, legal, therapeutic, and philosophical dimensions of the psychedelic renaissance, especially as Colorado’s Natural Medicine Health Act rolls out."

Medicinal Mindfulness is a grassroots consciousness community/membership organization and education program that supports individuals and groups who choose to use cannabis and psychedelics with intention and skill. Through our Community Breathwork and Conscious Cannabis Events, we facilitate legal, accessible, safe and sacred mindful journey experiences that integrate the four primary paradigms of intentional medicine use: Creative & Scientific, and the Psychological & Spiritual. Our approach is Transpersonally aligned and somatically oriented. In addition, we sponsor and organize educational community events such as the Psychedelic Shine Speaker Series and teach a facilitator and guidework training program called Psychedelic Sitters School. Our newest program, the Extended-State DMT Research & Exploration program is currently being developed.
We provide:
Individual coaching, counseling and assessment services
Individual & Group custom experiences using cannabis and breathwork - Novice to Experienced Practitioners
Group experiences with our Cannabis Healing Meditations™, Conscious Cannabis Circles™ & Community Breathwork™
Cannabis-assisted blacklight yoga and sound healing
Psychedelic Sitters School
Private Groups and Transformational/Training Retreats
Through our Conscious Cannabis program, we are explorers of the "Third Frontier" of cannabis activism. The first two frontiers represent the movements for medicinal and recreational use of cannabis. The Third Frontier is the exploration of the psycho-spiritual and creative potential of this sacred entheogen.
