When it comes to learning and growing from our psychedelic experiences, we need to do more than simply take the substances and expect all the magic to happen. We need to utilise other methods in our preparation and our integration for these experiences. Different methods can help set us up for insightful experiences, and then maximise benefits and keep us on a path of learning and growth. There are many, and some popular ones include: mindfulness, yoga, breathwork, and nature immersion. Another one of the big boys is journaling.  This is because journaling can help with self-reflection, e ..read more

Remembering is one of the unmissable parts of psychedelic integration that every psychonaut should be doing. When it comes to integration—the part of the psychedelic process after our experience where we try to consolidate any perceived benefits—remembering our psychedelic experiences can be a crucial part of the puzzle. Remembering helps us to reconnect to the experience and make it a part of our being. It helps to reconnect us with insights, impressions and important truths we may have encountered. In this blog post, I will explore remembering as a part of integration. I will look at the ben ..read more

High doses are often seen as the ‘end goal’ of psychedelics. Some psychonauts even have some level of pride around taking big doses. And while I certainly appreciate the benefits of a high-dose session, they are not the be-all and end-all of psychedelics. Micro, mini and low doses-tiny to small amounts of psychedelics-can also bring a lot of value and benefit to our lives. It’s an area of psychedelics I’ve come to appreciate more over the last couple of years as I’ve expanded my repertoire beyond classic high-dose journeys. Whilst high doses plunge us into deep journeys where it’s best to just ..read more

This is a guest post from the great Theo. Find him on his website Untangling Self or Twitter. – Combining LSD (enhanced creativity and imaginal powers) and MDMA (radical love and emotional safety) to heal complex trauma (#cPTSD) ft. Ideal Parent Figure Protocol Understanding Complex Trauma: More Than Just Events You know how we have these negative incident traumas that cause us to develop fear-based emotional learnings? These events are tangible and specific, making them relatively straightforward to process and resolve. But then there’s complex trauma. It’s not about a single big incident or ..read more

Can microdosing change your life? Many people will tell you that it can and that it has already changed theirs. Most people who know me know that I typically expound the benefits of larger doses, but I always like an experiment, and if that experiment includes psychedelics, even better. So I thought I’d give it a go, and I recently finished a month of microdosing psilocybin. In this post, I’m going to share a report of my experience. I’ll also share my protocol, how I incorporated it into my routine, and overall what I experienced during the month, including positives and negatives. My Motivat ..read more

If you’ve been finding it difficult to relax and open up in your psilocybin journeys, then you might consider combining it with MDMA. MDMA can help bring about a more relaxed, open-hearted space, which is an ideal state, or set, to enter a psilocybin journey. There are a few members inside our The Conscious Psychedelic Explorer community who have tried this combination and it has been giving pretty good results, so I thought I’d write about it as part of MDMA month on the blog. In this blog post, I’ll cover the potential benefits of this combination and offer suggestions on dosages and timings ..read more

MDMA and music: Magical combo. MDMA and live music: Now we’re talking. Concerts, gigs, shows. Whatever you call them. MDMA can heighten the experience beautifully. The combo is a popular choice because it goes down so so well. As the psychedelic revival continues to grow, much talk on the use and application focuses on the idea of using psychedelics in a medical or clinical context. While some argue that psychedelics are only good when used for treatment or healing, I believe in cognitive liberty.  Citizens should have the freedom to alter their minds as they choose. That includes taking ..read more
