How do you prepare for a journey?

[GoldenEye]

A treshold dose of another psychedelic is a great preparation for a blast off. Calms the nerves a lot.

I've also found this to be true, but meditation works as well. Basically, whatever lowers the tension in your body is good preparation.

My preparation for journeys is generally:

• Wait for a quiet time and disturbance or distraction is unlikely (usually late at night)
• Make sure space is tidy and there is space to leave pipe after blasting off
• If there is pot, make a little joint for before and after the journey
• Minimise lighting
• Remove clothes
• Get into bed and wait for the bed and body to get to a comfortable temperature
• Take a minute or 5 to relax myself as much as is possible

If you're not afraid to take it, that means that you're prepared for the journey

I am not sure I’m prepared very often then! I’m more often than not afraid (maybe wary is a better description) of DMT.

As there has been times that it has taken me several weeks to get my head round everything I think a good amount of wariness is pretty sensible.
