Daniel McQueen is the executive director of Medicinal Mindfulness—an international psychedelic therapy training program focusing on Cannabis-Assisted Psychedelic Therapy and Cannabis-Assisted Psychotherapy. As a somatically oriented psychedelic facilitator, Daniel is dedicated to exploring experiences that integrate the four primary paradigms of intentional medicine use: creative, scientific, psychological, and spiritual.

When cannabis became legal in Colorado in 2014, Daniel began facilitating group psychedelic experiences using special blends of cannabis that induce psychedelic states that mimic a blending of MDMA, psilocybin, ayahuasca, and even DMT. These events, called Conscious Cannabis Circles, helped develop the potential for cannabis to be used as a psychedelic, within a mindfulness based, transpersonally aligned, and clinically informed protocol to treat trauma, PTSD, and other significant psychological concerns.

Join Daniel for a conversation exploring healing and personal transformation through the intentional use of cannabis and psychedelics.

Daniel McQueen, MA has been working in the filed of psychedelics for over 19 year.

Medicinal Mindfulness was founded in 2012 as a psychedelic harm reduction program in Boulder, Colorado and has since evolved into an international psychedelic therapy training program focusing on Cannabis-Assisted Psychedelic Therapy and Cannabis-Assisted Psychotherapy.

In addition to his private practice work, Daniel facilitates training retreats for the Medicinal Mindfulness Psychedelic Therapy Training Program, which includes the foundational course, Psychedelic Sitters School, and more advanced courses that include Psychedelic Guide Training, Cannabis-Assisted Breathwork, Psychedelic Group Facilitation, and the DMTx Psychonaut Training Retreat.
