  • Episode 44 - Compounding Integration: The Introduction to The Shadow

    Welcome to your weekly dose of The Psychedelic Psychologist. In this session we reconnect with Sara, who has been intentionally working with psychedelics for over the course of the past 9 months. She provides a beautiful picture of the idea of "compounding" integration; the idea of still integrating things from previous sessions within the most recent experiences. 

    Sara, recently was introduced to some shadow work as well that she was aware of and shares intimate stories about what the shadow is to her.  Also we talk about the intensity of engaging in "all the things" that come in a session. 

    In our conversation Sara offers a important reminder to take time to reflect back, be open in the present and look to the future. Lastly, one of the values that I personally took from our conversation is the discretion that Sara has for this work. Talking about the healing and keeping her story sacred.
