As psychedelic use and research continue to grow, harm reduction practices are essential for ensuring safe and responsible use. Key strategies include educating yourself about the substance you’re consuming, testing for purity, and starting with a low dose to assess your body’s response.

Creating a safe environment and having a trusted trip sitter can also reduce risks. It’s important to avoid mixing substances and to seek post-use support, such as counseling, to help process your experience. By following these guidelines, users can maximize the benefits of psychedelics while minimizing potential risks.
