Psychedelic Integration
Psychedelic Medicine sessions can be very intense and compressed. It can have powerful physical, spiritual, and psychological aspects.
Many very deep and unusual experiences may arise in just a few hours time. We can enter expanded states of great beauty, great meaning, and great suffering as well.
The experience can be so dissimilar and different from our usual self and world that it can be hard to bring back the lessons, explorations, insights and healings that may have arisen in our journey. A journey tends to be a powerfully compressed bundle that calls for some unfolding for it to be brought in to our daily lives.
Like our Indigenous Elders in the world of sacred medicines, it is often helpful for the one who has come back from this subtle world to sit down and share, remember, and reflect on what happened with someone kind, clear and experienced in this sort of time and space traverse.
If you’ve had a session that hasn’t fully landed in you, or that you don’t understand, are bothered by, or want to be sure to bring into your way of being and life activities, an integration session may help.
Likewise, if you are planning for a journey, a clear and detailed orientation and preparation can be invaluable. Having a context and view that take into account your life’s personal arc brings clarity and power when you take that deep dive into yourself.
Though I’ve retired from guiding itself, on my path to healing I’ve done hundreds of medicine journeys myself and spent 20 years guiding others. Sitting in both seats, I’ve seen that preparation and integration work can bring forth much more meaning, beauty, healing, and true personal transformation for people. It takes time and effort and it’s quite helpful and often fun as well.
Let me know if you’re interested. I’d be happy to help.
