Today, we’re joined by Dr. Samuel Ko, a Board Certified Emergency Physician and medical director of Reset Ketamine in Palm Springs, California. Dr. Ko completed his emergency residency training at Loma Linda University Medical Center, where the mission is “To Make Man Whole.” Dr. Ko takes this same holistic approach at Reset Ketamine, where he always makes sure to take into account the biology, psychology, sociology, and spirituality of his patients. In addition to his medical practice, Dr. Ko and his wife Kim are co-creators of the online course Ketamine StartUp, which teaches other physicians how to start their own ketamine clinic. Listen in as Dr. Ko reflects on the 20-year journey that brought him down the unique path he walks today in the world of healthcare, and does a deep dive into the ins-and-outs of ketamine and the four-stage process that all of his clients undergo at Reset Ketamine. As a pre-medical student at Seattle University in Washington, he worked as a research technician at the University of Washington-Dept of Neurology studying neurosyphilis. He performed a variety of procedures on laboratory animals and, by happenstance, the medication that he used regularly to reduce their pain was ketamine! Later on, Dr. Ko gained an interest in emergency medicine, and along the way met a number of mentors who taught him the importance of spirituality in healing. Coincidentally, his emergency medicine residency program at Loma Linda University Medical Center saw the expanded use of ketamine outside of the anesthesiology department and O.R., giving him even more experience with the dissociative anesthetic. As fate would have it, Dr. Ko found running a conventional practice unfulfilling, not to mention corporate healthcare as a whole. In April 2018, Dr. Ko opened Reset Ketamine in Palm Springs, California. Beyond the simple delivery of ketamine, he believes in looking at the holistic picture of patients, utilizing the bio-psycho-social-spiritual model of medicine. Reset Ketamine offers a unique combination of preparation, intention, set and setting, and integration to support patients. Dr. Ko’s mission? “To use ketamine as a catalyst to transform lives so others can find their ‘why.’” Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn: ● [04:02] What inspired Dr. Ko to become a doctor ● [12:50] Why Dr. Ko chose emergency medicine ● [16:05] Discussing resident pay and access to mental health resources ● [19:45] What drew Dr. Ko to ketamine-assisted therapy ● [23:07] What exactly is ketamine and what are its benefits as a therapeutic modality? ● [27:37] What patients can expect from ketamine-assisted therapy ● [32:51] The two medications that can decrease the effectiveness of ketamine-assisted therapy ● [37:25] About Ketamine StartUp ● [41:44] The four stages of ketamine-assisted therapy at Reset Ketamine ● [46:40] How to become an integration coach ● [48:00] How Dr. Ko speaks with potential clients whose therapist told them to avoid ketamine-assisted therapy ● [55:24] Barriers against the mainstream acceptance of ketamine-assisted therapy ● [58:19] Dr. Ko’s favorite patient success stories calmigo.com?fid=614&utm_source=affiliatly&utm_medium=influencer&utm_campaign=Jacob_Minnig-614&utm_content=facebook-ig&utm_term=BHIPODCAST&source=affiliatly&placement=facebook-ig&medium=influencer&aff_id=614&aff_name=Jacob_Minnig&coupon_code=BHIPODCAST Enter BHIPODCAST as a promo code for $30 off the device.

Today, we’re joined by Emelyn Rozas, a behavioral health specialist, artist, and psychedelic advocate based in Toronto. She is a part of the executive management team at the Toronto Psychedelic Community. Listen in as Emelyn discusses how immigrating to Canada from Peru at a young age had a direct influence on the path that she would later traverse in adulthood. She opens up about a troubled childhood which included being a victim of pedophilia, and how a lack of resources and support for the benefit of her mental health eventually led Emelyn to pursue the modality of psychedelics. Emelyn offers her advice to those who are considering psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy and other forms of therapeutic psychedelics. She also speaks on the major lessons she has learned about healing past traumas. This includes the harsh reality that you may never be able to forgive those who have harmed you, but the best thing you can do is forgive yourself and be willing to let go of the shame that has held you back from growth. She goes on to talk about her work with the Toronto Psychedelic Community and give her thoughts on what she calls “the psychedelic renaissance”. Finally, Emelyn illustrates her hope for a future in which “peer support and psychedelics merge”. Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn: ● [02:36] How Emelyn got into the behavioral health field ● [07:46] How Emelyn prepared herself to try psychedelics as a modality ● [13:36] Determining when you may be ready to try psychedelics ● [16:42] Emelyn’s ayahuasca experience ● [20:25] Forgiving yourself and letting go of the shame from past traumas ● [24:10] Emelyn’s thoughts on the afterlife ● [26:10] Emelyn’s work with the Toronto Psychedelic Community ● [28:42] What continues to hold back research on psychedelics with regards to mental health and addressing addiction ● [29:52] About microdosing ● [32:23] How psychedelics help with substance addiction ● [37:26] Psychedelics the first step to addressing your mental/emotional problems ● [44:05] About Emmelyn’s artwork and future goals Key Quotes by Emelyn: ● Ayahuasca dissolves your sense of self: Everything gets fragmented. So, when you come back from the experience, it is up to you to grab those fragments and put them together for them to make sense, to get to the root of the things that are causing you issues in your daily life. ● A bad ayahuasca trip is actually a good trip, because there are so many things to learn. ● Guilt and shame are normal human emotions just like joy and anger. But, we have to be aware of the degree to which we feel them because they do affect us mentally and emotionally. ● Coming to peace with impermanence—knowing that, one day, we’re not going to be here anymore—allows us to pay attention and be present more, every day of our lives. ● Psychedelics do not fix problems. It shows you what the problems are. Then, you can grab them and start to heal them one by one. It is a great tool of revelation to reveal what’s hidden in the subconscious.

Dr. Stephanie Covington Today, we’re joined by Dr. Stephanie Covington, an internationally recognized clinician, author, organizational consultant, and lecturer. Listen in as Dr. Covington shares her upcoming appearance at the MARRCH Conference this October 24-26, 2022, during which she will give a keynote speech called “The Addiction-Trauma Connection”. She then speaks on her journey in the recovery field and her particular focus on helping to improve interventions for women. She highlights the issue that treatment was originally designed for men, and so problems specific to women are often largely undressed. Further, there is often reluctance to share certain gender-specific struggles in mixed groups. Dr. Covington also talks about her bestselling recovery book, A Woman's Way through The Twelve Steps and cautions against becoming too committed to a single approach to treatment since every patient is different. Finally,Dr. Covington explains why the impact of trauma has been largely unacknowledged in the recovery field for so long, and her best practices that facilities and therapists would do well to improve their effectiveness in addressing trauma. She says that those seeking services need to see treatment centers as safe places, so that they are encouraged to open up and be led. Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn: ● [03:45] Dr. Covington’s keynote speech at this year’s MARRCH Conference ● [05:47] Why Dr. Covington developed an interest in the fields of addiction, trauma, and recovery ● [09:55] Why co-ed treatment groups do more harm than good ● [18:06] Considerations around men running female groups ● [23:29] About Dr. Covington’s bestselling recovery book, A Woman's Way through The Twelve Steps ● [26:40] What to offer someone who is unwilling to go through the Twelve Steps ● [30:04] Why it’s vital to address trauma as soon as possible ● [34:08] What can be improved in the field when it comes to addressing trauma ● [37:31] Dr. Covington’s describe her work ● [43:08] About Dr. Covington’s upcoming book Key Quotes by Dr. Covington: ● Research shows that women do better in women-only treatment groups than in co-ed. ● It’s very hard for small programs to run gender-responsive treatment. It’s not impossible. It’s just hard. Women are better off in a group of two than they are in the group of ten men. ● When it comes to the effects of trauma, we’ve gone from denying to acknowledging, and we’ve gone from acknowledging to actually providing services. You can’t change your family, but you can change yourself.
