#20 - The Psychedelics-Integration.com Team

In this episode we’re talking to the Co-founder and CEO of www.psychedelics-integration.com, Andres Rose, as well as two of the platform’s lead practitioners, coach Vismay Agrawal and therapist David Londoño, about coaching & psychedelics. 

Andres Rose, originally from Uruguay, is the Co-founder and CEO of psychedelics-integration.com. He moved to Germany six years ago in search of a new life, pursuing a career, independence, and fulfillment. A highly goal-oriented individual with a background in business and startups, he also has a personal interest in psychology, history, and philosophy. Despite his achievements, including a German Master’s degree and extensive travel, he felt empty and struggled with anxiety and mild depression. His journey towards self-discovery began with his first psychedelic experience with LSD, which offered new perspectives but didn't resolve his issues. Skeptical of therapy, he explored more psychedelic experiences, leading him to an Ayahuasca retreat in Northern Europe. His first Ayahuasca experience was profound, providing insights through metaphors that required careful interpretation. This journey marked a significant step in Andres's pursuit of personal development and self-understanding. Now, he is eager to help others navigate the challenging path of finding clear and trustworthy support in the world of psychedelics.

Vismay Agrawal is an australian-based psychedelic coach who has facilitated over 60 one-on-one private guided psychedelic retreats and has worked with the Synthesis Institute and Psychedelic Insights, renowned providers of psilocybin retreats in the Netherlands. He has explored altered states of consciousness through experiences with various psychedelics, including psilocybin, 5-MeO-DMT, ayahuasca, DMT, MDMA, salvia, and ketamine. Additionally, he is a mindfulness coach with over 2,000 hours of personal meditation practice, guiding hundreds of clients on their mindfulness journeys. Vismay is also pursuing doctoral research at the Monash Centre for Consciousness and Contemplative Studies, focusing on understanding suffering and its underlying causal mechanisms. His interdisciplinary research integrates insights from contemplative traditions, cognitive neuroscience, psychedelic studies, and psychology to deepen the understanding of suffering and its alleviation. Through his diverse experiences, Vismay has realized that psychedelics are not magical pills for instant healing. While they may offer profound insights in a controlled setting, enduring changes only come with integrating these insights into daily life.
