What is “Psychedelic Integration”?

The use of psychedelics has been a topic of much discussion and research in recent years. Psychedelics such as LSD, psilocybin, and ayahuasca have been found to have therapeutic potential in the treatment of mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD.

While the benefits of psychedelic therapy have gained attention in recent years, the importance of psychedelic integration is often overlooked. Psychedelic integration refers to the process of integrating the experiences and insights gained during a psychedelic experience into everyday life. Here are some benefits of psychedelic integration:

1. Reduces anxiety and depression

Psychedelic integration helps people to process their psychedelic experiences and the emotions that come with them. By processing and integrating these experiences, people can reduce anxiety and depression, as well as improve their emotional regulation and resilience.

2. Increases emotional intelligence

Psychedelic integration can help people to become more emotionally intelligent. By processing their experiences and emotions, people can gain greater awareness and understanding of their own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, as well as those of others.

3. Improves relationships

Through psychedelic integration, people can gain insights into their relationships with others. By integrating these insights, people can improve their communication skills, increase empathy and compassion, and strengthen their connections with others.

4. Enhances creativity

Psychedelic experiences often bring about a sense of boundlessness and creativity. By integrating these experiences, people can tap into their own creativity and intuition, sometimes leading to higher levels of creative output and inspiration.

5. Provides spiritual insights

Psychedelic integration can bring about spiritual insights and experiences. By integrating these insights, people can gain a greater sense of meaning and purpose, as well as a deeper connection to themselves and the world around them.

In conclusion, while the benefits of psychedelic therapy have gained much attention in recent years, it is important to also focus on the benefits of psychedelic integration. Through the process of integrating psychedelic experiences, people can reduce anxiety and depression, increase emotional intelligence and improve relationships, enhance creativity, and gain spiritual insights. While it may not always be an easy process, psychedelic integration can be a valuable tool for personal growth and healing.

If you are interested in integrating psychedelics into your wellness routine I run a program called the healing for healers program, where I work with clients to help them find the best methods of integration, best practices, and help to reflect and decompress after their sessions. I have been running this program for 6 years helping people who are intuitive, psychic, mediums, and highly sensitive people process their traumas, emotions, and give them a guide rail on their personal healing journey.

Not only am I sourcing product that's been ethically farmed specific for my client's healing journey, I am processing those ancient medicines into consumable truffles, capsules, and other methods that are easy for them to incorporate into their routine.

If you want to learn more or if you would like to join this program please feel free to reach out to me at coachingwithlivvie@gmail.com

What is the Endocannabinoid system??

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a complex cell signaling system that exists throughout the body in humans and other animals. The ECS is responsible for regulating a variety of physiological and cognitive processes including appetite, pain sensation, mood, sleep, immune function, and fertility.

The ECS comprises of three main components: endocannabinoids, receptors, and enzymes. Endocannabinoids are naturally produced compounds similar in structure and activity to the plant-based cannabinoids found in cannabis. These are produced on demand by cells to help regulate various bodily functions.

The receptors for endocannabinoids are found on cell surfaces. The two main types of receptors are CB1 and CB2, which are found mostly in the central nervous system and immune system, respectively. When endocannabinoids bind to these receptors, they initiate various cellular responses.

The enzymes that break down endocannabinoids are another integral part of the ECS. These include fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL), which are responsible for inactivating endocannabinoids after they are no longer needed.

Overall, the ECS plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis, or balance, in the body. Dysfunction of the ECS has been implicated in a variety of medical conditions, including epilepsy, chronic pain, anxiety, and depression.
