The Psychedelic Coach Podcast


Feb 28, 2024

This episode of the 'Psychedelic Coach' podcast dives deep into the importance of safety and the concept of integration in relation to psychedelic experiences.
 
Safety is emphasized as not just a concept but as a fundamental cornerstone in the field of psychedelic therapy. It includes discussions around the definition of violence, its role in disrupting wholeness, and how it relates to the concept of 'safety'. The host also elaborates on trauma, considering it a creative response to violence and disruptions to wholeness.
 
The Four IN's process is introduced, which comprises Intake, Intention, In Space, and Integration - a form of a consistent and intentional integration that is always happening but is often overlooked. The episode emphasizes that while everyone integrates, how this is done is optional. The podcast ultimately links these ideas back to psychedelics and how they can disintegrate old habits, allowing for new, intentional integration.
