Alex Freese offers participants to expand your sense of what’s possible + reveal what you’re truly capable of.
## Every healing journey is unique and based on your specific needs– even if you’re not exactly sure what those needs are.
Sessions begin where you are at, exactly as you are, followed by some deep relaxation and grounding. Together, you and Alex will get to the heart of your healing needs through a guided meditation and honest conversation. Through a combination of touch, deep listening, and intuition, Alex can support a healing experience in mind, body, and spirit– opening the door to new possibilities and allowing you to step into the light of your highest potential and personal power.
I meet all private one on one clients at the Lake Harriet Spiritual Community, 4401 Upton Ave South, Minneapolis, MN 55410. My healing space is located within the beautiful, historic building in Linden Hills, blocks away from Lake Harriet.

Indigo Health Voyages is Stephen Goterch's platform for Kambo, Health Coaching, and Psychedelic Integration.
# Reclaim your Health, Reclaim your Spirit…
As we evolve on our planet, correlating with an ever increasing amount of information at our footsteps, we as individuals are finding new and improved ways to heal our minds and bodies. The world is changing rapidly while it is indeed exciting and important times for planetary growth. As we can connect with other parts of the world, we begin unifying and discovering healing modalities to help usher in our own positive changes.
With many gifts brought to this planet, Kambo is one particular gift that more and more people around the globe are called upon. As a society that is full of stress, where sometimes our old methods fail to show improvement, we tend to turn to alternative therapies with great success.
Kambo, a 800 year old ancient tradition, is the skin secretion from the Phyllomedusa tree frog of the upper Amazon. The secretion is full of peptides, nueropeptides and bioactive peptides, which are the building blocks to life. This modality for healing biological and energetic blockages is a scientifically proven approach to achieve our higher selves, putting our bodies back into balance. The great tree frog from the Amazon, giving it’s medicine to the world in abundance while no harm is ever done to the frog, offers a truly revolutionary step forward for our overall heath.
Once we achieve this balance putting our fatigue and “Dis-ease” to rest, we can move forward making the healthy intelligent decisions that our lives deserve. Learning productive holistic modalities with the right guidance, one can begin a new chapter bringing joy into our world and the people who surround us.
Our mission statement and goals with Indigo Health Voyages is to implement a grounded holistic approach within our important healing process. We offer one on one interpersonal treatments along with group and retreat settings. A dedicated focus is applied to each participant and their important integration process.
Also within our practice, using the tools of wellness coaching, herbalism, plant medicines, sound healing and meditation, we provide a well balanced multi-faceted approach to meet our higher selves. With 17 years of dedicated experience facilitating treatments, retreats, and ceremonies, it is with great excitement to share this space. As we begin learning from each other and creating new paradigms for a better world, we become the change we want to see in the world.

Open Mind Integration is Christopher Gunlock's platform for his Psychedelic Harm-Reduction Services and MN Trip Sitters Network.
For the past 20 years, the world of expanded states of consciousness have been a core part of my life. I've been consistently exploring and integrating psychedelics such as ayahuasca, psilocybin, LSD, DMT, 5-MeO-DMT, and ketamine. I now specialize in providing preparation education, journey planning, sitter matching, risk assessment, and post-integration. I also manage the member intake, health assessment, and ceremonial music for Luna Wolf Sanctuary, Minnesota's first legal plant medicine church.
Since 2018, I've been working in the psychedelic community as a spokesperson, educator, event organizer and coach, where I learned from many colleagues in medicine, shamanism, psychotherapy, and research. I served for 2 years as Executive Director at the Psychedelic Society of Minnesota, where I acted as public representative, lead event organizer, media director, and hosted hundreds of hours of integration circles. I also helped lead the Global Psychedelic Society Group during that time. Since then, I've studied under traditional plant medicine carriers from various South American traditions, partaking in their rituals and ceremonies. I’ve also completed 1 year of training and volunteering for the Fireside Psychedelic Peer-Support Line.
My prior professional background was primarily in education. I was a freelance math tutor for 7 years and amateur audio engineer/producer. In 2018 I completed a Masters in Health Science in Integrative Medicine from The George Washington University School of Medicine with coursework in functional medicine, nutrition, metabolomics, mind/body medicine and endocrinology. At Maharishi International University I received my B.S. in Mathematics where I trained in Vedic philosophy, traditional medicine and advanced transcendental meditation. My platform Open Mind Integration offers an in-depth psychedelic harm reduction course and coaching.
Open Mind Integration is the process by which we create harmony between the expanded awareness states and the material aspects of our lives such as health, work, relationships and environment. These major transition points in life are opportunities to adjust the rigid egoic structures that prevent us from adapting to new circumstances. This brings harmony to destructive cycles, bad habits, automatic thinking, or a general sense of purposelessness. I also support those going through spiritual emergence/emergencies, which is often brought on by psychedelics. I do private coaching, teach classes, organize legal plant medicine ceremonies, and offer free discussion groups.
