Exploring Psychedelic Love

Love is one of the most powerful and elusive forces in the psychedelic experience. From self-love to universal love, ecstatic states of connection are often considered to be one of the holy grails of the psychedelic experience. Some call it biochemical magic; others believe it’s a glimpse of a deeper universal truth. Whatever the source, these moments of deep connection have the potential to heal, inspire, and transform the way we relate to ourselves and others.

In this integration space, we’ll explore the many faces of psychedelic love. From self-acceptance to soul connections, we’ll discuss how to nurture and sustain the profound love experienced in altered states long after the effects have faded. Integration may include explorations of how we have felt love on a journey or how psychedlic have changed our veiew of love after a journey.

Join us as we explore how to cultivate these emotions in everyday life and deepening connections beyond the psychedelic experience.

What is an integration Circle?

An Integration Circle is a safe, supportive space where individuals can process and reflect on their psychedelic experiences. These gatherings allow participants to share insights, challenges, and questions, fostering deeper understanding and personal growth. Whether you're seeking clarity on a powerful journey or simply curious to hear from others, integration circles provide a sense of community and connection. All are welcome—whether you feel called to share your story or simply listen and hold space for others. Come as you are and join us in exploring the transformative power of integration together.

*Due to the sensitive nature of integration circles, NO RECORDING is available. 

**Please try to be on time as you may not be able to get in after our icebreaker because we are busy or we are waiting until a sensitive share is over.

Integration Circle Rules

After our ICE-BREAKER, we will open up the circle 1st to people who would like to integrate a specific experience. Shares are given up to 5 min. We will then ask if the person would like to receive reflections. If desired, we will open the floor for 2-3 reflections. At that point we will then move to the next share.

If no one feels called to share a personal experience we will open the circle to questions and general conversations. Please limit shared times to allow responses.

We are also going to ask everyone to:

- Speak from personal perspective

- No Advice Giving. Use 'I' statements.

- Bring an open mind

- Confidentiality “what happens in Zoom, stays in Zoom”

- No Recording of ANY kind

- Silence all electronic devices

- Avoid distractive behavior: eating, multitasking, driving

- Mute mic when not talking

- avoid crosstalk

- Participation! We request that everyone participates on some level. That can look like: just turning on your camera, or participating in the check in verbally or via the chat. This is for the comfort of the group and everyone who is showing up and sharing vulnerably.

- No Solicitation of Substances or Promotion of Retreats (see disclaimer) please avoid naming specific guides or retreats

- No showing stash picks or substances on camera
