The Benefits of Combining Psychedelics and Sex

Psychedelics can redefine our understanding of sex, allowing for energetic exchanges, pleasure-focused experiences, and expanding the definition of what constitutes a good sexual experience. They can help us explore different levels of pleasure, dissolve boundaries, and move away from solely genital-focused experiences. Psychedelics provide reference points for what sex can be, helping us implement practices to achieve similar experiences outside of the psychedelic state.
