Psychedelic Integration

Integration is the process of turning psychedelic states into enduring traits.

Integration is an essential part of the psychedelic medicine experience.

It is the process of digesting, or making sense of, insights and perspectives from your medicine experience in support of the healing and change you seek.

Ultimately, integration is a link between the journey itself and utilizing its gifts to live a more authentic, fulfilling, and harmonious life.

COMMON INTEGRATION TOOLS

Integration takes many forms.

There is no right or wrong way to do it, and different approaches resonate with different people at different times.

The most important thing is to commit to integration by engaging in whatever feels most meaningful and supportive to you.

Integration at Cascade Psychedelic Medicine

Although we don’t have integration specialists on staff, we do maintain a list of qualified integration coaches you may contact and engage with on your own.  


If you have an established relationship with a therapist, healer, or spiritual guide you may find it beneficial to work with them since a foundation of trust and rapport already exists.


For ketamine sessions at CPM, a certain amount of integration is built into the framework of our approach.


For group psilocybin ceremonies through CPM, integration sessions are built into the format of the offering; each ceremony includes two 90-minute group preparation sessions and two 90-minute group integration sessions.
