The Long Process of Integration

Listen Later

In this episode Kaylee discusses the long process that the integration of our psychedelic trips require. As an example, she discusses what she has been (and still is) going through with integrating a mushroom trip she did February, 2020. Integrating through making changes in your life is not an easy part of the psychedelic experience, but it is the most rewarding. She shares her history of struggling with eating disorders and the messiness of the time since this trip while giving herself credit for all of the growth and progress she has made and celebrating life as it is now.

As is always the case, psychedelics are not a toy. Please use them responsibly. We can only speak to our own psychological and spiritual evolution, we cannot speak to yours. If you have mental health issues please seek a professional. There is no shame in getting help and you will never be judged for your problems. We wish you the best in life and in mental health.
