105 | Recognizing When & How to Take a Break from Psychedelics
Episode 105
Friday, August 30, 2024 • Duration 31:53
In this solo episode with Lana, we explore importance of taking a break from psychedelics and medicine work. While these powerful tools can facilitate profound healing and transformation, there are times when stepping back can be the medicine you need. I discuss five key signs that it might be time to pause, including having too much to integrate, chasing the highs of the experience, and noticing compulsive habits forming around psychedelic use. This episode offers valuable insights for anyone who may be questioning whether they are still benefiting from their psychedelic practices.
Additionally, I provide practical strategies for how to take a break effectively, including focusing on integration, exploring other modalities, and prioritizing other areas of life. This conversation is rooted in the importance of listening to your intuition and recognizing that everyone’s journey with psychedelics is unique. If you are considering a pause for psychedelics and The Work, this episode provides guidance on finding balance and ensuring that your psychedelic experiences continue to serve your highest good.

095 | The “Refinement” Stage of Psychedelic Integration: Personal Style, Slow Fashion & Conscious Consumption
Episode 95
Friday, May 31, 2024 • Duration 52:18
What in the world is a psychedelics podcast doing talking about “personal style” and fashion?! This has to be the first. But discovering your personal style is identity work that requires vulnerability. It’s a deeply meaningful journey of self discovery. If you don’t see the connection now, then you will by the end of this podcast.
In this episode, I am introducing a concept around the different stages of psychedelic integration: There is the “heavy lifting” stage where we’re doing deep work to significantly improve our lives, followed by the “refinement” stage which is a lighter process of fine tuning.
For me, this refinement process is showing up in my journey to discover my personal style. The misalignment between my identity and my wardrobe has come up a few times during psychedelic journeys, and I am finally addressing it so that the outside is a true reflection of my inside. I also make the connection between the responsibility to find your personal style, living a values-based life, and sustainable consumption.
Topics Covered:
The “heavy lifting” vs “refinement” stages of psychedelic integration
The connection between life satisfaction and values-alignment
How refinement is showing up for me through personal style
How personal style came up during my psychedelic experiences
Why I stopped caring about fashion during my healing chapter
Why I started caring about fashion again after my healing chapter
Fast fashion overconsumption as a result of not knowing my personal style
My core values that are aligned with knowing my personal style
My journey to discover my personal style so far
Consumption habits and making wise purchase decisions
