The Postgraduate Program in Research in Therapeutic Guidance with Ancestral Medicines and Entheogens (Protocol Q) is an endeavor born from the urgent necessity for conscious leadership and inner truth in the healing arts [Style]. This program, offering a Master's (2 years), Doctorate (4 years), and PhD (6 years), is the first in Mexico and globally to achieve a complex synthesis: modern science, ancestral wisdom, and ethical rigor. We aim to professionalize facilitators of ancestral medicines and ceremonies, ensuring that this deep knowledge is approached with discipline and respect. The comprehensive curriculum is built upon seven crucial Curricular Pillars designed for integral development:


1. Therapeutic Guidance and Neurosciences.
2. Anthropology of Psychedelics and Entheogens.
3. Traditional Ancestral Medicine.
4. Integral High Performance.
5. History and Application of Occultism and Spiritual Sciences (covering topics like spirits and entities that most colleges avoid).
6. Art Therapies, Prayers, and Medicine Songs (including the effect of sound healings and music in ceremonies).
7. Research Methodologies and Academic Publications (aimed at making an impact on academia and national/international legislation).


This foundation is validated by the National College of Expert Psychologists of Mexico (CONAPPSIM). The International Propaedeutic Certificate (1 Year) acts as the foundational step, aligning credits with Ubiquity University (UU).


Requirements for the International Propaedeutic Certificate:
To obtain this certificate, candidates must fulfill strict requirements designed to ensure they are prepared to walk the walk:


1. Immersive Practice (Minimum 5 Retreats): Students must complete a minimum of five immersive retreat experiences. This is a mandatory balance, requiring four entheogenic retreats and one non-entheogenic ceremonial experience (such as Vision Quest, Moon Dance, or Sun Dance). Students go to the Elders' mountains and deserts.
2. Academic Rigor: Students must generate and submit at least one research paper or thesis annually. Research is emphasized as one of the program's most important differences.
3. Ethical Commitment (Protocol Q): Strict adherence to the Code of Ethics, focusing on non-violence, respect, humility, and maintaining clear intention.
4. Clinical Safety and Screening: Undergo constant psychological and physical evaluations, utilizing psychometric tools to analyze variables like Depression, Anxiety, Stress, and Substance Abuse. They must also provide a Non-Criminal Background Check every six months.
5. Masterclass Attendance: Maintain active attendance (80% suggested for the Master's level) to classes, seminars, and activities.

Testimonials
“They bring an academic background, the knowledge of the “medical-scientific” perspective, and a holistic outlook on “consciousness and serving others,” all grounded in the highest ethical and moral standards and based on the union of deep ancestral wisdom and the traditions passed down by our grandparents regarding our relationship with nature, spirituality, and the divine—approached objectively but leaving room for sensitivity, intuition, and the support of “scientific” frameworks."

Integration Phase:

  • Group integration circles within 24–72 hours

  • Individual sessions for those requiring deeper processing

  •  

Ethics & Safety:

  • All participants sign the Commitment Letter and Code of Ethics

  • Clear guidelines on confidentiality, power boundaries, and community safety
