For how many people is a psilocybin ceremony a transformative experience? What is the percentage of participants who experience breakthroughs during such a ceremony?
In an average psilocybin ceremony with six participants, there are often 1 to 3 people with fantastic insights and/or breakthroughs. There is often also a person who found it interesting but does not know what the benefits of a ceremony are. Sometimes the progress then comes in the days or weeks after the trip. And in the middle, you have people who had a good trip, but there are no clear stories or breakthroughs. With them, it is always a matter of waiting to see what the long term brings.
The transformative experiences are therefore noticeable in 1 or 2 out of six people during psilocybin ceremonies.
