Preparation and Integration in Psychedelic Therapy

Preparation and integration are crucial aspects of psychedelic therapy. In the preparation phase, clients are guided to become well-informed about the chosen medicine, establish their readiness, set intentions, understand their role in the transformational process, and create a supportive set and setting. Integration is emphasized as an ongoing process, starting even before the psychedelic experience. It involves engaging in conscious conversation, working on character building, analyzing social and environmental influences, and focusing on lifestyle changes. Addiction recovery is also discussed, highlighting the need for a multi-dimensional approach that addresses the addictive mindset, personality, lifestyle, and culture. Transformational coaching plays a significant role in working through wounds and burdens, helping individuals raise their consciousness above addiction and move towards their true self.
